How to Train Your Ex-Billionaire novel Chapter 117

Around four in the afternoon, Zebulon's call came as expected.

Winifred answered.

He asked to meet with her to discuss the situation with Cornelia.

Although Winifred was planning to resign, she hadn't yet. And since Zebulon’s tone was polite, she agreed to meet him.

They met in a private room at a tea house.

Zebulon graciously poured tea for both of them, then raised his cup with both hands. "Dr. Spencer, please allow this tea to serve as my apology on behalf of Cornelia."

He drank it all in one go.

As the hospital director, he hadn't tried to intimidate her into submission. Instead, he had been respectful and offered a direct apology. As his junior and subordinate, Winifred couldn't be too harsh.

So she just smiled faintly and waited for him to continue.

Zebulon set down his cup and sighed. "Dr. Spencer, I know Cornelia has done many terrible things to you. I always thought they were just petty squabbles between young women, like that incident in the cafeteria. I've scolded her a few times, but I never took it seriously enough. This time, I never imagined she would be so foolish as to resort to illegal means to harm you. I am truly…"

His face was a mask of disappointment and frustration. "I am just so angry. If she weren't my only daughter, I would seriously consider disowning her."

Winifred listened quietly, without saying a word.

He considered the cafeteria incident a petty squabble? It was clear he'd always been indulgent with Cornelia.
