Chapter 240
The bodyguard shook his head. “We can’t ask Mr. Wood’s whereabouts at will.”
“Lend me the mobile phone, and I’ll give him a call.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
When connected, Shawn was indifferent and aloof. The voice came, “What’s the matter?” “It’s me,” Gale said.
He was silent for a few seconds before saying, “What’s the matter.”
Although the words were the same, his tone had softened a lot.
Gale asked, “You left me in the ward alone and didn’t allow me to go out. What’s the difference. between being in jail? Am I not free?”
“You need to take care of your body now.
“The person who put me in this situation and harmed my body is clearly you.”
Shawn said, “Just stay there and recover well.”
Gale said, “I’m bored alone. Let Summer come with me.”
“No.”
“Then you come with me.” She raised her eyebrows. “If you can’t do it, let Summer come.”
After a few seconds of silence, Shawn hung up the phone.
Gale continued to peel the apple seriously.
Her technique was very good. Not a piece of apple was wasted.
The bodyguard didn’t dare to disturb her, so he quietly exited and stood at the door.
Gale looked at the apple but did not eat it, but stared at the fruit knife in his hand.
Slim, sharp, and still brand new.
She kept admiring it, then got up and put the fruit knife under her pillow, quickly hiding it.
Half an hour later, there were rapid footsteps outside.
“Gale!”
Summer ran in in a hurry.
