Chapter 405
Winnie wanted to say more, but there was no good way to smooth things over now.
Michael didn’t respond. He tightened his grip around the still-warm coffee and turned to leave.
The assistant glanced at Winnie, and even their expressions showed a hint of disappointment.
When Winnie returned to the HR department entrance, the crowd instantly scattered. Her brow twitched despite herself.
Just then, a male colleague walked over, coffee in hand.
“Winnie, you don’t like Mr. Morrison, do you? Then what kind of man do you like?”
“Anyone but you,” Winnie replied coldly. Seeing that he was holding a coffee she had bought, she reached out and took it back without hesitation.
She had only treated the women in the department. The men weren’t included.
Michael had come to see Khloe. They were originally scheduled to meet in the afternoon, but since he happened to be free at noon, he came early.
Khloe wasn’t in her office during lunch break, so he waited inside for a while.
Bored, he opened the coffee Winnie had given him and took a sip.
It was extremely bitter-so bitter his face twisted into a grimace.
He had never been able to handle bitterness since childhood. Winnie hadn’t even bothered choosing a better coffee for him. Not a shred of sincerity.
Just then, Khloe pushed the door open and immediately saw Michael’s contorted expression.
“Michael, are you okay?”
Office gossip spread fast. On her way up, Khloe had already heard a rumor. They said Michael had just confessed outside Winnie’s department, trying to win her back, but had been mercilessly rejected.
When she was in the elevator, Khloe had even thought about how Michael had told her that he and Winnie would only be friends from now on, that he didn’t want to pursue a relationship anymore.
How could he lose control so quickly?
And confessing at the office, no less… that was a little embarrassing, wasn’t it?
Michael set the coffee down and said awkwardly, “Not really. It’s too bitter.”
“I understand how you’re feeling,” Khloe said sympathetically, patting his shoulder. “Don’t push yourself too hard.”
There wasn’t much she could do to help with someone else’s feelings.

“But you can’t just throw it away, can you? That would be a waste.”
Michael had noticed the price earlier. Even a small cup like this cost over four dollars.
With Winnie buying so many, did she even have enough spending money?
He knew that in the past, the Olson family only gave her a few hundred dollars a month. Whenever she attended events, the clothes she wore were hand-me-downs from Veronica.
Winnie couldn’t afford nice things at all.
When Michael used to buy her gifts, she wouldn’t accept anything too expensive. If he gave her money, she would get angry.
Yet, after all these years, Winnie still hadn’t changed much.
Ever since he saw her still working at her family’s toy store, he knew she hadn’t saved much at all.
“But if you think it’s bitter and don’t throw it away,” Khloe said, assuming he was speaking metaphorically, then you’ll just keep suffering.”

Thinking he was being a little poetic, Khloe turned back to her desk to organize some documents and sighed along with him.
“It’s still a bit hard to get used to, but it’s not unbearable.”
After saying that, Michael picked up the coffee again and gulped down a large mouthful.
This time, he frowned. “You know, when it gets bitter enough, you stop noticing it.”
“I really admire you,” Khloe laughed. “Want me to help you?”
“How would you help?” Michael paused. “If you can, I wouldn’t say no.
He was momentarily confused.
Was Khloe going to help him finish the coffee? But he had already drunk from it. Or did she have some sweets in her office?
While Michael was thinking this, Khloe took out her phone, opened her chat with Winnie, and sent a voice
message,
As Khloe sent it, Michael instinctively took another sip of coffee.
But when he clearly heard what she said in the voice message, he choked and started coughing violently.
