Chapter 537
After successfully sending the message, he turned off his phone and put it away,
effectively shutting out any further muisances. He had finally managed to take Cynthia out
to clear her mind, and he would not allow their day to be spoiled.
The young and handsome coach stared at the message on his screen, his mind buzzing
with confusion. What did ‘do us a favor ‘mean? Undeterred, he dialed the number again.
“The number you have dialed is currently unavailable.”
The young coach rolled his eyes as Matthew’s car pulled away.
Matthew was never concerned about upsetting people.
By the time the car arrived in town, it was already past four in the afternoon. Matthew
took Cynthia straight home.
There was no point in going to the office at this hour, especially as all the pressing issues
had been dealt with by him and Moe. There was no need for her to worry unnecessarily.

“Thank you for today. I will give you a raise next month,” she turned to say with a touch of
formality.
In a casual tone, Matthew responded, “Thanks, Boss.”
Cynthia was not accustomed to this address.
“Go and rest. I’ll call you for dinner when it’s ready. I need to earn that raise you’re giving
me,” Matthew advised like a concerned older brother.
“I” Cynthia began to refuse
However, a single look from Matthew silenced her, and she replied with a simple, “Alright.”
She was not sure if it was just her imagination, but she had a feeling that if she had
refused, Captain would probably have addressed her as Cynthia again.
Once they had each retreated to their respective homes, Cynthia contacted Mitchell.
Compared to her, Mitchell probably understood Captain better, considering they were not
just teammates but also fellow foxes.
After some idle chat via video call, she got to the heart of the matter, “How do I refuse
Captain’s meals?”
“Meals?” Mitchell adjusted his glasses.
“Every now and then, Captain invites me over for a meal. Given his past behavior, if he is
nice to you, it probably means you’re in trouble,” Cynthia said with a hint of uncertainty.
Even though Captain had promised not to hold grudges over past events, she was still
worried.
Except for that one incident, she could not think of any reason she might have provoked
Captain.
Had all that not been in the past now?
Mitchell smiled faintly, secretly musing over the rocky path Captain had traversed in his
pursuit of love. After noticing his expression, Cynthia asked, “Why are you smiling?”

“Well, you know, Captain has retired,” Mitchell said.
Cynthia stared at him, perplexed. What was that supposed to mean?
Well, now that he isn’t the devilish Captain we once knew. We should not judge him based
on his past actions,” Mitchell said.
“What do you mean?” Cynthia asked, intrigued.
Mitchell explained, “Perhaps his invitation for you to dine with him is just an innocent act
of kindness. Or, he might be feeling uneasy about living in your house and earning the
high salary you provide. He might just want to return the favor.”
Chapter 537
“Do you really think Captain could feel that way?” Cynthia was surprised at the
suggestion. She had always considered Captain. to be quite guarded.
“Well, he was our Captain. He was superior to us in all aspects. However, upon leaving the
team and realizing that we come from rather well-off families, especially you, he might
have developed a sense of inferiority,” Mitchell continued.
Cynthia’s eyebrows knitted together at this suggestion. Inferiority? Could that word ever
be associated with Captain?
