Cedric was pissed off by this Ryan guy. He chucked his phone and rolled up his sleeves, throwing a punch at him.
"I can get it done in one week!"
Even after being punched, Ryan didn't say anything. He just chuckled, packed up his laptop, and left.
Cedric was infuriated by Ryan's arrogant demeanor. He wanted to chase after him and land a few more punches, but he was stopped by Bernard.
Seeing how Bernard looked, Cedric sat down next to him, asking, "Bro, any more orders?"
Bernard lowered his head and said, "Take care of her, don't let anyone take advantage of her."
Cedric knew who he was referring to. He said, "Bro, if you can't get her back, stop doing this."
Bernard glanced at his fingertips that had been burned by sulfuric acid. After a moment of silence, he replied, "I owe her."
He had hurt her with a slap once. Even if she had forgiven him, he couldn't forgive himself.
To distance herself from him now, she even shielded him from the acid.
His debt to her was piling up...
Cedric looked at his hand. His once handsome fingers were now ruined, and he felt a pang of sadness.
"Bro, you've done enough for her. Forgive yourself."
Bernard responded firmly, "I can't."
Seeing him like this, Cedric didn't know what to say. He could only nod helplessly, "Alright, I'll take care of her."
Bernard nodded, reminding him, "Don't bother her."
