Chapter 123 What‘s The Matter?

Byron‘s stern and icy tone made Wendy‘s heart tighten. The little hope she had just now disappeared.

She wanted to get dressed up to meet him, but Byron said to meet in half an hour. Wendy just grabbedher purse and went out in a hurry.

Her house was a long way from the restaurant. Her driver was going at lightning speed for her to arriveon time.novelbin

When Wendy entered, Byron was already waiting for her at the seat by the window.

Hearing movement at the door, the man raised his eyes and looked over. His expression was colderthan the night outside the window.

“Byron, what’s the matter?” Wendy felt inexplicably guilty and carefully sat down opposite him whileclutching her purse. Byron stared at her for a few seconds. The atmosphere around him was terrifyinglysilent.

Wendy clenched her fingers nervously and forced a calm smile on her face.

“You sent Estie to school this morning.” After a long while, he spoke sternly and coldly. Wendy noddedquickly.

“Mrs. Lawrence asked me to help, so I went.” Hearing this, he sneered coldly.

“My mother also asked you to go to the principal and expel those two children using the Lawrencefamily‘s name?” Wendy did not expect him to find out about it so quickly. Her face turned pale, and hermind was racing. She hastily found an excuse for herself.

“I just… When I sent Estie to school, I happened to see the two boys bullying Estie. I could never letthat happen to her, so I went to the principal.” After speaking, she looked at the person opposite heruneasily and emphasized, “Byron, how could I just allow others to bully Estie? I‘m sure youunderstand.”

Byron furrowed his brows slightly. “I understand, but I also want to know, where did this so calledbullying incident happen?”

“At the gate of… the kindergarten.” Wendy‘s voice trembled slightly. She lifted her gaze only to see theface of the man opposite her getting colder. “Fine, I‘ll have someone check the surveillance. If it‘s true,it‘s all good. If not…”

“I remembered it wrong!” Hearing that Byron wanted to check the surveillance, Wendy hurriedlyinterrupted him and fumbled with her words, “It wasn‘t in the kindergarten, it was in… in the… erm…”

After stammering for a while, she could not come up with anything. There was cold sweat on herforehead.

Byron looked at her clumsy performance with cold eyes and did not wait long for a reply. His patiencegradually exhausted, and his voice was full of impatience. “Wendy, I know you‘ve

used the Lawrence family‘s name for your benefit on many occasions, but I never wanted to pursue itfurther. But because of your behavior this time, Estie had a complete meltdown. If she doesn’t recoverfrom this, don‘t blame me for disregarding our years of friendship!”

Wendy saw the stone–cold gaze in Byron‘s eyes. She shuddered and quickly lowered her head withoutdoubting the authenticity of his words. After speaking, Byron gave her the cold shoulder, got up, andleft.

“Byron!” Wendy still wanted to plead her case. Byron turned around and faced her whileexpressionless.

“What else do you have to say? You‘d better have a good reason.”

Wendy‘s lips trembled, and in the end, she bowed in deep shame.

As long as Byron checked the kindergarten surveillance, her lies would be exposed no matter what shesaid.

When she looked up again, Byron had left. The panic on Wendy‘s face slowly turned into boilingresentment. She never imagined that things would turn out like this! Byron actually found out what shehad done!

Again, it was because of that little brat! What a hassle!

She should have beaten that little brat to death in the morning!
