Chapter 548

Did the Captain realize what he was doing?

“Captain.”

“What’s wrong?” Matthew asked, gently touching her hair as he continued to blow–dry it.

However, he felt a twinge of uncertainty. After all, this was his first time doing something

like this. Was he unintentionally pulling her hair, or was the dryer’s heat too much?

Cynthia took the hairdryer from him and turned it off, returning the room to its peaceful

silence.

“I can handle drying my own hair. You should get some rest. You’ve had a long day,” she

said, still somewhat uncomfortable with the situation.

“Alright. Call me if you need anything,” Matthew replied, not insisting any further.

“Alright,” Cynthia responded.

Matthew gave Cynthia another look before he finally stood up to leave. As he stepped out

the door and into his own home, Cynthia sent him off with a sincere, “Thank you.”

Once they both retreated to their respective homes, Cynthia closed her door and started

blow–drying her hair on her own. It always seemed like hair drying was an intimate act

that should be shared only between close ones, like parents, siblings, or perhaps lovers.

Yet Captain had just done it for her, a gesture that left her with a strange, indescribable

feeling. After her hair was dried, Cynthia prepared for bed.

Before turning in, she took a glance at her phone to check if there were any messages or

missed calls. She noticed the message from Moe on WhatsApp.

Ulterior motives? Who?

She sent back a simple message, [Who?1

Moe was still waiting for Cynthia’s reply at home. Ever since Matthew came on board, he

was no longer required to chauffeur the boss. Matthew now handled most of the tasks he

used to accompany her for. This change stirred up a sense of crisis in him.

When he saw Cynthia’s response, he typed out, [Matthew.] However, remembering

Cynthia’s fondness for Matthew, he hesitated before hitting send. What if she also

harbored feelings for Matthew? Would this not just help Matthew to express his feelings

sooner?

Mor found himself stuck in a conundrum, unsure whether to send the message. After

waiting for a while with no response from Moe, Cynthia figured he had already fallen

asleep. She set her phone on the bedside table and drifted off into dreamland

In the end, Moe did not send the message. He thought it would be better to tell her

differently when she asked about it at the office the next day. However, he had not

expected that Cynthia and Matthew would not show up at the office the following day.

Early the next morning, after informing Moe that she would not be coming into the office,

Cynthia rang Sean. She told him about her plans to visit the base Sean was initially

reluctant. He had promised joshua that he would not involve Cynthia in his affairs

anymore. Allowing Cynthia to visit would mean breaking that promise. Knowing Joshua, he

might have something up

his sleeve.

However, he could not afford to offend Cynthia either, given her position. Sean felt a

headache coming on.

After much deliberation, he offered Cynthia an alternative, “How about this? I can show

you all the data related to Joshua’s health, but you can’t see him in person.”

“I won’t go. Matthew will,” Cynthia replied, not wanting to put him in a difficult position.

Sean was left dumbfounded. “Matthew?” Surely, it could not be the Matthew he knew.
