Turning Of The Tide
Chapter 85
Chapter 85
The night was enveloped in eerie darkness, with a calm stillness that echoed through the empty streets. The frigid air seemed to deter most pedestrians from venturing, leaving the path lonely and quiet.
The shimmering stars cast their faint light upon the sleek front of Edward’s Ferrari, creating a mesmerizing display of twinkling white against the backdrop of swaying trees.
Edward’s gaze remained fixed upon the illuminated 28th floor of the building, its glaring lights piercing through the night. A. profound sense of pain gripped his chest, making it difficult to comprehend or accept what lay beyond those luminous windows.
After half an hour, he reached for his phone and dialed Kyle’s number. “Where are you, Kyle?”
Hanging up the phone, he ignited the engine, propelling his car toward the destination Kyle had mentioned.
Edward arrived at Kyle’s apartment in no time and stopped by the supermarket downstairs to buy a pack of cigarettes.
Having been there numerous times before, he knew the password to Kyle’s apartment. Despite their professional hierarchy at work, they had developed a close friendship outside of office hours.
Kyle couldn’t contain his curiosity as Edward walked in with a sad look. “Did the confession not go well?”
Being intelligent and wise, he knew that workplace matters alone wouldn’t leave Edward so utterly defeated. After all, they had been together for years, and he had a good sense of who Edward was.
Even in the face of project failures, he had never seen Edward in such a lifeless state.
The only conclusion he could draw was that Edward had been rejected by the girl he liked.
Edward slumped onto the sofa, tugging at the corner of his lips with a hint of sarcasm. “Well, isn’t it just perfect that my confession failed? Have you got any alcohol? Let’s have a drink. It looks like I’ll be crashing at your place tonight.” He didn’t even get a chance to confess, and now the girl he had feelings for was already pregnant. He had yet to learn who he had been defeated by.
Kyle didn’t rush to respond and nonchalantly shrugged. “Sure. Any preference for something strong?”
“Sure”
Kyle thought that Edward must be seeking solace in alcohol, secking comfort in their friendship.
