Chapter 1794

[ 612 words ]

He obviously knew exactly what was going on. To him, Bianca was probably just a distraction.

“Ah, Dane’s secretary. Still, very impressive.”

While Yanni complimented Lincoln, he was clearly just using it as an excuse to suck up to Dane.

Lincoln kept his eyes fixed on Bianca, noting that she still refused to look at him, desperately avoiding his gaze.

He decided not to expose her right then and there.

“You two are probably busy with your date. Go ahead,” Dane cut in. Perhaps finding Yanni too annoying, he bluntly dismissed them.

Yanni wasn’t stupid; he took the hint and didn’t argue. “Right, right. See you later, Dane, Claire, Lincoln.”

The fact that Yanni called him ‘Lincoln’ rather than by his title clearly showed he was mocking the ‘university senior’ excuse they had just played along with.

Bianca’s face drained of even more color, while Yanni’s smile only grew wider.

Claire mentally shook her head. This guy genuinely possessed zero chivalry.

If his teasing wasn’t enough, he reached over and patted Bianca’s arm. “Babe, where are your manners?”

“Say goodbye to your ‘senior’!”

“Goodbye, Mr. Green, Claire, Lincoln!”

Bianca practically ground her teeth together as she spoke.

Yanni naturally noticed that she addressed Claire so formally.

He raised an eyebrow but didn’t bother pointing out the odd detail.

Watching the two of them leave the restaurant, Lincoln collapsed back into his chair as if every ounce of strength had been ripped from his body.

“Lincoln, are you alright?”

Seeing the devastated look on his face, Claire genuinely worried the heartbreak might push him over the edge.

Dane also stared intently at Lincoln.

Lincoln was undeniably talented, which was why Dane desperately wanted him to push his limits and succeed.

Dane was fully prepared to groom him for greatness, guaranteeing Lincoln a top executive spot at Vertex International in the future.

But if he couldn’t even survive a messy breakup, it was hard to say if he had a future there at all.

He needed to either fight to win her back or completely sever ties.

Of course, Lincoln also had the option of taking revenge on Yanni and Bianca.

It all depended entirely on what he chose to do next.

Seeing his boss and the future Mrs Green looking at him with such gendine

“I’m fine,” Lincoln shook his head.

Though he still looked a bit shell-shocked, Lincoln had firmly resolved to wash his hands of her.

Whatever happened to Bianca from this point forward was no longer his problem.

At worst, it just meant he had to entirely rewrite his life plans.

He immediately looked at Dane. “Mr.

Dane didn’t agree right away.

“Get your personal affairs sorted out first.”

Lincoln understood. Dane wanted to see how he handled the fallout before handing him the keys to the kingdom.

He immediately pulled himself together. “I’ll get it taken care of!”

Lincoln had originally planned to drive the two of them back before heading home himself.

But neither Claire nor Dane wanted him worrying about them right now.

“You can leave first. I’ll take Claire home.”

Dane didn’t need Lincoln to play chauffeur.

If anything, he was slightly worried about whether Lincoln was in the right headspace to drive himself.

He actually asked out of concern, “Do you want us to drop you off first?”

Lincoln froze, feeling nothing but overwhelming gratitude toward Dane.

“Mr. Green, I drove my own car here.”

Dane gave him a pointed look—*that’s exactly why I’m worried.*

Lincoln caught the hint instantly. “Please take Claire home. I’ll be perfectly fine.”

“Alright.” Dane didn’t push the issue.

Dane and Claire paid the bill and left the restaurant shortly after Lincoln did. By the time they walked out, Lincoln’s car was already gone.
