Chapter 266 Start All Over Again
“Byron, you’re eating with Dr. Lane!”
Mark was reminded by Ben, and his gaze fell on the table of Byron and Cora.
William and Jane also looked at the two.
William looked at Byron and then at Cora. He frowned and didn’t walk over to say hello.
Jane politely nodded at Byron and Cora, but she didn’t walk over to say hello either.
Byron greeted Mark indifferently as usual, “Have you eaten yet?”
“Yes. Mr. William Yoris and Jane invited me and Ben to have dinner and communicate with us about Dad’s surgery.”
Cora didn’t know if it was her illusion, but she seemed to have sensed a hint of playfulness and provocation in Mark’s words.
But Byron’s voice was the same as usual. “Since you’ve eaten, I won’t keep you guys.”

Mark smiled, “We will go back to the company. Enjoy your dinner with Dr. Lane. If something happens to Dad, call us.”
Byron nodded, and they left.
Jane and William didn’t take the initiative to say anything to Byron.
Cora knew that part of it was because of her, but more of it was because Byron had lost the management rights of the Hansen Group. In the eyes of the Yoris family, he was not as useful as before.
Otherwise, given their personalities, even if they knew that Cora and Byron were together, they would continue to be on friendly terms with Byron as usual, as if nothing had been discovered.
“Do you like shredded chicken?” After they left, Cora suddenly proposed.
“As you like.”
With this reply, Cora ordered shredded chicken.
The shredded chicken was served quickly. Cora readily put
some on Byron’s plate.
The two had known each other for so long, but this was the

first time Cora had put something on his plate.
Therefore, Byron raised his eyebrows and looked at Cora.
Cora didn’t take it seriously. “What are you looking at? Treat shredded chicken as your ex–girlfriend. Chew it a few times to vent your anger.”
“She’s not my ex–girlfriend.”
Cora ignored Byron. “Don’t you hate them?”
“Why should I?”
In Byron’s eyes, whether the Yoris family treated him well wouldn’t affect his mood. After all, they were not related.
Byron suddenly looked at Cora. “If I can’t get those things back, will you treat me like they did?”
Cora didn’t expect that Byron would suddenly ask such a strange question. She looked up and saw him looking at her.
In his sharp eyes, there was a hint of anxiety and seriousness
that had never been seen before.
Cora thought Byron cared about what others thought of him. He was afraid that when he had nothing left, all the people around him would leave him.

When that happened, would Cora ignore him as Jane and
William did?
Cora hesitated for a moment and replied, “No.”
“Really?”
“Yes!”
“Why?”
“There’s no reason. I won’t ignore you.” Cora felt that her feelings for Byron might be deeper than she could imagine.
For a long time after this, they didn’t chat anymore. They just ate quietly.
But when they were about to leave the cafeteria, Cora
suddenly said, “Byron.”
“Yes?”
“No matter what happens, I will be by your side. We can start
all over again.”
Cora smiled at Byron, like the dazzling sun outside the window. Byron was deeply touched…
