Chapter 405\u00a0<\/p>\n
Winnie wanted to say more, but there was no good way to smooth things over now.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Michael didn\u2019t respond. He tightened his grip around the still-warm coffee and turned to leave.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The assistant glanced at Winnie, and even their expressions showed a hint of disappointment.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When Winnie returned to the HR department entrance, the crowd instantly scattered. Her brow twitched despite herself.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Just then, a male colleague walked over, coffee in hand.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWinnie, you don\u2019t like Mr. Morrison, do you? Then what kind of man do you like?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnyone but you,\u201d Winnie replied coldly. Seeing that he was holding a coffee she had bought, she reached out and took it back without hesitation.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She had only treated the women in the department. The men weren\u2019t included.\u00a0<\/p>\n
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.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Khloe wasn\u2019t in her office during lunch break, so he waited inside for a while.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bored, he opened the coffee Winnie had given him and took a sip.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It was extremely bitter-so bitter his face twisted into a grimace.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He had never been able to handle bitterness since childhood. Winnie hadn\u2019t even bothered choosing a better coffee for him. Not a shred of sincerity.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Just then, Khloe pushed the door open and immediately saw Michael\u2019s contorted expression.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMichael, are you okay?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Office gossip spread fast. On her way up, Khloe had already heard a rumor. They said Michael had just confessed outside Winnie\u2019s department, trying to win her back, but had been mercilessly rejected.\u00a0<\/p>\n
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\u2019t want to pursue a relationship anymore.\u00a0<\/p>\n
How could he lose control so quickly?\u00a0<\/p>\n
And confessing at the office, no less\u2026 that was a little embarrassing, wasn\u2019t it?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Michael set the coffee down and said awkwardly, \u201cNot really. It\u2019s too bitter.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI understand how you\u2019re feeling,\u201d Khloe said sympathetically, patting his shoulder. \u201cDon\u2019t push yourself too hard.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
There wasn\u2019t much she could do to help with someone else\u2019s feelings.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cBut you can\u2019t just throw it away, can you? That would be a waste.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Michael had noticed the price earlier. Even a small cup like this cost over four dollars.\u00a0<\/p>\n
With Winnie buying so many, did she even have enough spending money?\u00a0<\/p>\n
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.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Winnie couldn\u2019t afford nice things at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When Michael used to buy her gifts, she wouldn\u2019t accept anything too expensive. If he gave her money, she would get angry.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Yet, after all these years, Winnie still hadn\u2019t changed much.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ever since he saw her still working at her family\u2019s toy store, he knew she hadn\u2019t saved much at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBut if you think it\u2019s bitter and don\u2019t throw it away,\u201d Khloe said, assuming he was speaking metaphorically, then you\u2019ll just keep suffering.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
11\u00a0<\/p>\n
Thinking he was being a little poetic, Khloe turned back to her desk to organize some documents and sighed along with him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s still a bit hard to get used to, but it\u2019s not unbearable.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
After saying that, Michael picked up the coffee again and gulped down a large mouthful.\u00a0<\/p>\n
This time, he frowned. \u201cYou know, when it gets bitter enough, you stop noticing it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI really admire you,\u201d Khloe laughed. \u201cWant me to help you?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHow would you help?\u201d Michael paused. \u201cIf you can, I wouldn\u2019t say no.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He was momentarily confused.\u00a0<\/p>\n
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?\u00a0<\/p>\n
While Michael was thinking this, Khloe took out her phone, opened her chat with Winnie, and sent a voice\u00a0<\/p>\n
message,\u00a0<\/p>\n
As Khloe sent it, Michael instinctively took another sip of coffee.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But when he clearly heard what she said in the voice message, he choked and started coughing violently.\u00a0<\/p>\n
