Chapter 235: Provocation
When he married the female lead, he didn’t tell himself. Even in the years of their marriage, his friends never saw the female lead going out with anyone. So the male lead always thought that the female lead didn’t have many friends around her, and even if she did, they probably weren’t close.
It wasn’t that the female lead had no friends from start to finish. It was that she actively kept her distance from her own friends, and her group of friends around her didn’t want her to marry him at all. So during the years of their marriage, the female lead took the initiative to cut off all her friendships until he became single again and she started reconnecting.
From the first time the male lead saw Duncan, he knew Duncan liked the female lead. Duncan always looked at her with joy and possessiveness in his eyes.
But when facing the female lead, the male lead subconsciously hid this feeling and didn’t want her to see his true thoughts. Otherwise, with their long history of knowing each other and their many years of friendship, how could the female lead marry him?
He didn’t know about this later and couldn’t tell the female lead about these things, so he still couldn’t express anything up to now.
Actually, when the male lead saw Duncan being able to walk into the female lead’s office without any hindrance and she always smiled at him, he felt unhappy deep down.
But the male lead also knew deep down that he was the one who caused all this.
Standing at the elevator door, the male lead wanted to rush in and ask the female lead what she thought during the years of their marriage, but in the end, his rationality stopped him.
Just as the elevator opened and he was about to enter, the door of the office opened. Ads by PubFuture
Feeling something, the male lead turned around and saw Duncan coming out of the female lead’s office, holding two cups. One was white, and he recognized it as the cup the female lead used.
The female lead also liked using this cup at home, and he didn’t expect her to still use it at work, without changing it.
In that instant of seeing the cup, Nanchi’s heart started beating violently. When the female lead bought this cup, she bought two, one black and one white, saying she wanted to use them as a couple. But he had never used it, and now the female lead brought this cup to work, did it mean she hadn’t let go of that feeling? Was there still a possibility between them?
“I bought this cup for him from abroad. He asked me to bring it back for him, saying he wanted to use it as a couple with you. But I haven’t seen the black cup, so I guess he doesn’t use it anymore. I think this cup is not good, so I didn’t throw it away. Today, I bought him a couple of new ones. He likes blue. I don’t know if you’ve seen them. Probably not, since you’ve never really seen him. Oh, by the way, I told you, the probability of cooperation between you two is very low now. After all, the female lead has to avoid suspicion.”
Seeing the male lead’s gaze on the cup in his hand, Duncan suddenly smiled. He provocatively said these words to the male lead, and the male lead felt very uncomfortable hearing Duncan’s words.
“Is that so? It’s only natural to avoid
suspicion. However, you’ve been abroad for so many years, you
probably don’t know, life is
unpredictable, and cooperatio
alway@possible. Today there may be no cooperation, but tomorrow, for other reasons, cooperation may happen. So I’m not worried about the lack of cooperation with him.” Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
The male lead seemed indifferent, but in fact, it made Duncan extremely uncomfortable, because that’s how life was. Today you may have no cooperation with him, but tomorrow this cooperation may come. Ads by PubFuture
“Fine, although he is now the company’s vice president, the big direction is not in his hands yet. And if I’m not mistaken, there was originally a cooperation with your company, but the female lead rejected it. Guess why.”
Both of them were smart people, so there was no need to be too explicit. In fact, they both knew very well. Even if the male lead was stupid, he could realize that the person who came to him today was here to provoke him, to show how good his relationship with the female lead was. But what did it matter?

“Seeing your appearance, you must like him very much. I just don’t understand why you’ve been by his side for so many years, but you’ve never been together. Is it because you didn’t want to?”
With a light sentence, the male lead successfully changed Duncan’s expression. This time, he successfully won back a round. The male lead’s mood was very good, and he didn’t bother to look at Duncan again, going straight into the elevator.
Duncan held the cup tightly in his hand, watching the male lead leave, but he was still unhappy inside.
He knew what to say to make himself so angry. He didn’t stay away from the female lead because he didn’t want to, but because he never had the chance. Finally, when he had the chance, someone else appeared by the female lead’s side.
Apart from the male lead, Duncan also knew very well that his rival in love was not just the male lead, but even someone who could be considered a rival was only Miles. Even his own sister was on Miles’ side, not caring about him, her own brother.Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
“Aren’t you supposed to come in and help me get water? Why haven’t you come in after so long?”

The female lead didn’t know what the male lead and Duncan had said to each other, but Duncan said he, would come to get her water, and after a few minutes of not seeing a him come back, the female lead was a bit speechless, so she came out to take a look. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
Seeing Duncan holding her cup still standing at the elevator door, not knowing what he was thinking, the female lead suddenly felt a bit familiar with this cup. If she remembered correctly, she used this cup when she married the male lead.
“Change this cup.”
It was because she was too anxious at the time, and there were no suitable cups. That’s why she left this cup behind. Now it had nothing to do with anyone, so there was no need to keep this cup anymore.
The gloom in Duncan’s heart disappeared in an instant when he heard the female lead speak. He happily threw the cup aside and then went to the pantry to get another cup of water and entered the female lead’s office.
