Chapter 246

There w

a moment of silence on the other end of the line. Cynthia deliberately asked, "You didn't know they also got their marriage certificate, did you?"

As she spoke, Cynthia's gaze fell on Filip. He had been keeping his head down, avoiding eye contact with her. But when he heard Cynthia's words over the phone, he suddenly lifted his head. Cynthia's phone was on speaker, so everyone present could hear the conversation clearly. Filip hadn't expected Cynthia to call Pamela

Pamela's voice on the other end of the line was filled with rage. That bastard! How dare he get a marriage certificate with that vixen behind our backs?

"He said he could never forget you and would never marry, waiting for you his whole life. I felt sorry for him, but it turns out he's two-faced, saying one thing to my face and doing another behind my back." Pamela was fuming. "That bastard, just you wait and see how I deal with both of them."

With that, Pamela hung up the phone. Within seconds, Filip's phone started vibrating. He knew exactly who it was. He held the phone without answering, his eyes fixed on Cynthia's face.

The words Pamela said on the phone were actually from the bottom of his heart. He couldn't forget Cynthia at all and had planned to never get married, waiting for her forever.

But when Cynthia heard those words, there wasn't a trace of emotion on her face. A flicker of impatience and disgust even passed through her eyes. 'So now, do I mean so little to her? Filip thought

Lilian's face flickered with annoyance. She thought, We got our license without the Yates family knowing. I've been watching Cynthia's life closely and chose the same day to fee her reaction But today, Lilian was deeply disappointed.

Filip had already turned off his phone. Lilian tightened her grip on his arm. "No matter what the Yates family thinks of me or whether they accept me, Filip's heart has always been with me. And soon, we will be a happy family of three." Lilian placed her other hand on her belly and turned to look at Filip. "Filip, let's go. We still have an appointment for a prenatal checkup."

Filip didn't want to be here. He had been forced to come by Lilian. But he hadn't expected her to plan it so well that they would run into Cynthia and Jonathan getting their marriage certificate.

Filip felt a deep pain in his heart. Now, the girl who had been his childhood friend for twenty years, the one who shared his youth, was truly married to another man.

Filip felt as if a massive boulder was pressing against his chest, making it hard to breathe. All he wanted now was to leave this place as quickly as possible. He cast a cold glance at Lilian and said in an icy tone. "Let's go They had barely taken a few steps when Jonathan suddenly called out to him, "Mr. Yates, wait a moment."

Filip stopped and turned around. "What is it?"

Jonathan's face showed a smile, but his gaze was icy. One of his hands was in the pocket of his tailored suit, and he looked every bit the elegant and distinguished gentleman

In Filip's mind, Jonathan-was radiating confidence and success. Filip assumed that Jonathan was about to gloat about his marriage to Cynthia. As a result, his expression and tone were filled with hostility and indifference To Filip's surprise, Jonathan said, "Isn't today a workday? So, is Mr. Yates skipping work?"

Filip was taken aback. Irwas Monday, of course not a day off. He didn't understand why Jonathan was bringing this up, but a sense of foreboding began to creep into his mind.

"I entrusted the Paradise Resort project to Mr. Yates because I believed you would be diligent and responsible. But you used work hours for personal matters like getting

a marriage certificate and prenatal checkups. Is this how Mr. Yates treats your job?" Jonathan asked.

Filip's face turned rigid, and he was at a loss for words. "Mr. Bennett, I..."

"Mr. Yates, if you're so casual about work, can we be just as casual with the payments for the Yates family's construction project?" Jonathan continued.

This sentence hit Filip right where it hurt.

The Paradise Resort project was a Beimett Group project. It was also the project that could make the Yates family rise to prominence. In other words, Jonathan was his golden ticket

This was his first time taking on such a big responsibility, and if he messed up, it would be his last. Filip knew exactly how critical this was. His demeanor instantly softened. Tm sorry, Mr. Bennett. It won't happen again. Jonathan replied coolly. "Considering this is your first marriage, let it slide this time"

Filip was at a loss for words and could only say, "Thank you, Mr. Bennett."

Jonathan said. "Starting today, you will write me a daily work report and summary, over three thousand words, and send it to me before 9 PM every night."

Filip was taken aback. "Mr. Bennett, this is a bit much, isn't it?" I were more than 3,000 words, he wouldn't have time for anything else all day.

Jonathan frowned, "A bit much? If you can't handle such a small matter, I doubt the Yates family is up to the task. T'll consider switching to another construction company."

Filip gritted his teeth and finally agreed. "I can do it, Mr. Bennet

Filip thought. The other projects of the Yates family were already in the red. If we lost this one, the Yates family would go bankrupt. No matter what, I couldn't afford to lose this project

Jonathan smiled, putting his arm around Cynthia's shoulders as they walked down the stairs. He turned back and added, "Remember every day"

Once they got into the car, Cynthia could hear the sound of Filip and Lilian arguing. The car sped away, Cynthia chuckled, You did that on purpose, didn't you? 3.0 words a day, he'll be stuck in front of the laptop all day long. Jonathan held Cynthia's hand. "I did it on purpose, so he won't have time to bother you."

Jonathan had heard everything Pamela said on the phone. Filip actually still had feelings for Cynthia and even said he wouldn't marry anyone else, waiting for her. "How dare hel' Jonathan thought.

Jonathan squeezed Cynthia's hand, noticing her troubled expression. He comforted her, "If you don't want to see Lilian, I'll find a way to make her leave."

Cynthia shook her head "It's not the right time to leave. At least I need to figure some things out first." Cynthia wasn't afraid of Lilian. She had already been bested by her once and wouldn't give her a second chance.

She was just confused about the truth of the past, 'Why did Luke suddenly disappear, and why couldn't she find him no matter how hard she tried?' Cynthia wondered.

Jonathan asked, "Tonight, Bruce and the others booked a private room at Ocean Club to celebrate, If you don't want to go, 1

can cancel it."

Cynthia knew the gathering had been planned beforehand. So, she said, "Let's go. They mean well, and it might help us relax

a bit.

That night, Cynthia and Jonathan went to Ocean Club. As soon as they entered, they saw several familiar faces. Bruce, Tommy, Charles, and a few others were Jonathan's childhood friends.

As the door swung open, they saw the group standing in two rows at the entrance, bowing their heads and bending their waists in unison. "Hello, Cynthia Cynthia, we salute you!"

But Cynthia's eyes were immediately drawn to another person sitting on the sofa.
