Chapter 58
“Kylan didn’t do it on purpose. He misunderstood you, so don’t be angry with him,” Jensen was frustrated and caught up with Gilda. Grabbing her arm, Jensen tried to explain.
Gilda struggled to get rid of Jensen. “Mr. Harrington, who are you to tell me to forgive him?”
Jensen looked at Yadira and Megan, who were hostile towards him because of Gilda, and said, “Can’t you be kind and tolerant? Let’s have a talk like friends.”
Gilda smiled casually, and her eyes were full of indifference.
“I only hav

have a dead ex and no friends who have divorced me,” said Gilda.
Although Jensen had heard of such a refusal before, he still couldn’t calm down when hearing it again. He said coldly, “The apology statement will be published tomorrow morning, and I’ll ask Kylan to withdraw the trending topic later.”
“There’s no need for you to pretend to be sorry for me. They did this to me because of your acquiescence, didn’t they?” Gilda asked.
“Me?”
Jensen frowned, obviously not agreeing with her words.
Gilda’s face was full of disappointment and indifference. She stared at Jensen with her bright eyes and said. “It’s your indifference that makes them think I am a dispensable person who can be humiliated by every one of them. Why are you pretending to be nice now?
“Carol and Sherry despised me, and Kylan slanders me at will. But your hypocrisy makes me feel more disgusted.”
Hearing Gilda’s accusation, Jensen was shocked.
When Gilda was at the Harrington residence, he had never cared about her situation. He always thought. everything was as peaceful as it seemed to be.
Jensen never slept with Gilda, so she couldn’t get pregnant. Carol kept accusing Gilda of not being able to have children, but Jensen never defended Gilda.
Jensen’s friends always said that Gilda was not good enough in front of Jensen, but he didn’t take their words seriously at all, which made them look down on Gilda more and more deeply.
Thinking of the past, Jensen was ashamed.
However, Gilda turned around calmly, and the almost unperceivable pain in her heart disappeared in a flash. “Even if you don’t do anything, I have many ways to make Kylan apologize.”
Gilda didn’t care about Jensen at all. She hugged Megan and said, “What do you want to hear today? I’ll

sing for you.”
Yadira asked Gilda, “Are you OK?”
“I’m fine. I can’t be better,” replied Gilda.

“We can leave if you feel bad.” Yadira said. Known for her composed demeanor, she rarely displayed
concern for others.
Gilda shook her head and said, “He doesn’t deserve my sadness.”
“My Gilda won’t feel upset because of those jerks. We must enjoy tonight, Megan said and pulled Gilda and Yadira into the crowd.
“That’s right! Let’s have fun!”
The next day, Gilda was reading the report intently while David, the director of the Investment Project Department, was standing aside with a smile.
According to the report, Dillan emerged victorious over Morgan Bank and effectively acquired a listed.
company.
“Ms. Lynch, we are so lucky to recruit such a talent! The merger case, which we obviously had no chance of winning, was solved by Dillan. I was so excited that I didn’t sleep last night,” David said excitedly.
“Well, the data is beautiful.” Gilda nodded calmly.
After David left the office, Gilda received a message from an unfamiliar number: [You promised me. I’ll meet you tonight.]
Gilda raised her eyebrow. It was Dillan.
Dillan had proved himself with his strength, so Gilda couldn’t stand him up.
But how did Dillan get her number? Gilda had to ask him later.
When it was time to get off work, Gilda took her handbag and left the company.
As soon as she got downstairs, she saw Dillan’s eye–catching sports car.
Dillan got out of the car, strolled around to the passenger seat, and extended an inviting gesture with a complacent look. “Please, join me in the car,” he said courteously.
Gilda didn’t refuse this time and got into the car.
