No More Waiting, She Chooses Love novel Chapter 183

"What's up?" Conrad's voice, chill and boss-like, cut through the tension, the undeniable vibe of a CEO. Gone was the playful banter between us. They say women are fickle, but men are no different.

The head of security, pale and trembling, quickly scrambled over to report the situation. Conrad listened, his gaze eventually landing on Ernest. "So, this mess is due to Mr. Collins' personal vendetta?"

I knew right then that Conrad was itching to take this out on Ernest.

Ernest didn't bite, but Conrad's lips twisted in a mocking smile. "Mr. Collins, hmm?"

"Yes, that's right," Ernest admitted, undeterred.

Conrad bent down to pick up the pieces of something that had been shattered. "Mr. Collins, how do you propose we handle this?"

"What does Mr. Wagner think?" Ernest clearly caught the underlying tone in Conrad's voice.

I kept quiet. Any word from me would only fan the flames. If it weren't for me, Conrad wouldn't be making a mountain out of this molehill with Ernest. In fact, given his nature, he'd usually back Ernest up. After all, this was a ruckus on Wagner Group's turf, specifically their theme park. The saying goes, you don't kick a dog without looking at its owner. Today's blatant disregard was, plainly speaking, a slap in Conrad's face.
