Right Person, Wrong Time

"Alright, thank you for doing this." Nicole nodded. She couldn't stop Darcy from leaving if she wished to do so.
Upon seeing this, Darcy promptly turned around and left without second thoughts.
Chloe watched Darcy's departure, feeling perplexed. However, noticing Nicole's understanding expression, she refrained from
asking further questions.
Back in the country.
Wendy was ecstatic when she learned that Nicole had given birth to a boy. However, she didn't know who to share this joyous
news with.
She gazed at the photograph of the little boy that Chloe had sent her. As she silently confirmed that this was her brother's child,
she only felt happier.
Nicole had been feeling increasingly fatigued lately. To keep Wendy updated on Nicole's condition, Chloe exchanged contact
details with her.
Beryl, who was occupied with some tasks at hand, noticed Wendy's smile and deduced that Nicole must have given birth.
Based on his calculations, she should have given birth in the past few days.
"What's making you smile?"
Beryl feigned ignorance and quirked an eyebrow at Wendy.
"It's nothing."
Wendy turned her head to glance at Beryl and dismissed his question.
Starting last month, both sets of parents began to match her with Beryl. For some reason, they believed the two were a perfect

match.
As a result, she was forced to come to Beryl's company every day to accompany him to work under the watchful eyes of her
parents. This led to the current situation.
"Alright. If there's any good news, feel free to share it with me. You would be bored just sitting here every day."
Beryl was merely teasing Wendy. Seeing her like this brought him immense joy.
"There's nothing. I just saw a joke. But considering your poor sense of humor, I decided not to tell you about it."
Wendy forced a smile, almost grinding her teeth as she responded to Beryl.
Does this man ever quit? Does he have to probe until he uncovers everything?
"Alright."
Beryl knew when to back off. He simply responded casually and then concentrated on managing his company's affairs.
Recently, Kendrick had initiated new strategies. In order to prevent him from penetrating the domestic market, and to suppress
Kendrick's company on the other hand, Beryl had been occupied with searching for evidence.
Seeing Beryl resume his work after a brief exchange, Wendy couldn't help but observe him.
She couldn't deny that this man looked rather attractive when he was engrossed in his work.
There had to be a lot of issues to resolve with Kendrick recently, right? The last time she saw him this engrossed was when they
were overseas.
Was it a crucial phase?
Wendy speculated from the sidelines. She only had a vague understanding of such situations. She would relay everything she

knew to Nicole, and Nicole could assist her brother a bit and provide a lot of significant information.
However, such crucial information was now in her possession. If she informed her brother directly, it would undoubtedly raise
suspicions.
Eventually, she devised a clever plan: to send an anonymous email to Colton.
She later learned that her brother had also attempted to have Beryl look into it, but he never found out that it was her doing.
Wendy couldn't help but start questioning whether Beryl's work competence was up to the mark.
Sigh.
She shifted her position on the couch and was so bored that she was on the verge of dozing off.
Beryl's mouth twitched slightly when he heard the little lady sighing beside him. It was a simple task to investigate her, who had
sent anonymous emails several times without concealing her IP.
However, she seemed to have started doubting his work competence.
"Beryl, what's for dinner? My mom wants you to join us for dinner."
Wendy saw the message her mother had just sent and couldn't help but roll her eyes. Her mother was indeed very
straightforward under such circumstances.
"I'm fine with anything. I'll go since your mother has invited me."
After Beryl agreed, he immersed himself in his work. He had to work diligently for this meal.
