Why the Crocodile Tears (by Flower Sock) novel Chapter 276

Chapter 276

Answering the call was fine. But that woman had mocked Anathed over the phone, twisted the truth, and spouted utter nonsense!

Maybe she’d realized she had said something she shouldn’t have, Because when Anathea ended the call, the woman immediately put the phone back on the ground before running off

However, as she was drunk, she’d forgotten to delete the call log. When Gregory had picked up the phone to call Anathea and explain, he’d seen that she’d called, and the call had even lasted 15 minutes.

He hadn’t even spoken that long to Anathea in total over the past few years.

How could Gregory, who even got jealous of his own son, not be furious?

To make things worse, every word in that call had been aimed to provoke Anathea. It completely ruined all the effort he’d been putting in these past days to make a good impression on her.

For the first time, Gregory truly understood what it meant to be wronged.

Though it wasn’t snowing in Castenea, and the temperature was over 68°F, the atmosphere in the private room at Drunk Elysium was so frigid it felt as though everything inside was about to freeze.

The executives who’d been making snide remarks earlier rubbed their arms and complained impatiently, “Who was it? Just come forward already!”

If not, they were going to freeze to death under this ice–cold pressure from the grim–faced tyrant!

The room remained completely silent. Everyone’s head was practically glued to the floor–no one dared make a sound.

Gregory laughed coldly. “No one’s going to admit it, huh? Then, check the surveillance footage.”

“I–It was me…”

Finally, the woman confessed timidly, her voice shaking.

Everyone turned to look and saw a woman in a deep V–neck top raising her hand. She was dressed maturely, but she looked young–20 years old at most.

“What’s your name?” Gregory casually pocketed his phone, his voice emotionless.

He’d just tried calling Anathea and found that she’d blocked him. Again. This was the second time Anathea had blocked him.

“M–Mackenzie Yard,” Mackenzie replied cautiously.

Gregory looked at her and curled his lips slightly. “Mackenzie. That’s a beautiful name.”

The sudden praise made everyone in the room freeze for a moment Just moments ago, he’d been seething with rage. But now, he suddenly sounded sweet.

Could Gregory have taken a liking to Mackenzie? Well, the woman was quite pretty. If he was acting on impulse, it was still

understandable.

“T–Thank you, Mr. Sinclair.”

Even Mackenzie herself started thinking along those lines. She could feel that Gregory’s gaze on There was even a faint smile on his face.

I wasn’t as cold as before.

Gregory was like a prince charming in real life. His features were perfectly sculpted, and he was heir to a powerful family in Castenea. On top of that, he was young and successful. He was the dream man of countless women.

When a man like Gregory smiled at a young woman like her, how could her imagination not run wild?
