So, You Lied toAgain? Boom, whatever. Let it all blow up.
Dalton didn't say another word. Instead, he typed a line in the chat: "I'm gonna take a break. Logging off." And just like that, the guy disappeared.
Jean sat frozen in front of her screen, stunned.
Seriously? That's it? You're just gonna ghostlike that? Could he be any more indifferent? Suddenly- CH ONE Her phone chimed with a notification. Sure enough, it was a message from Winston.
Winston: "Talk. What's going on?" It was just a short sentence, but Jean could practically feel the icy chill radiating from it.

Winston: "So, you lied toagain?" Jean quickly typed back.
Jean: "Winston, I didn't mean to lie to you!" Jean: "Back then your team still needed one more person and you couldn't find anyone you liked. I just wanted to help." Jean: "I happened to notice Dalton was playing this gtoo. Judging by his stats, he's pretty good..." Jean: "So I recommended him to you. I knew you guys had history, that you didn't like him, so I didn't dare tell you who he really was..." Jean: "I honestly thought maybe it was all a misunderstanding between you two. If you had the chan talk things out, maybe it could all be cleared up..." Jean: "I swear, I never meant to deceive you." She sent out a long string of messages, but Winston didn't respond right away.

Winston: "Let's not play today. We'll regroup once the team's sorted out." He didn't answer her question-just changed the subject completely.
Jean wanted to push him for more, but in the end, she didn't say anything.
If Winston didn't want to talk, there was no point forcing it." It'd only make him more annoyed with her.
Still...
What exactly happened between him and Dalton? Their relationship didn't seem like a simple grudge.
She was curious, but clearly, Winston wasn't going to give henany answers right now. Maybe approaching it from Dalton's side would work better...
