Chapter 305
“Don’t look at me like that. I’m speaking the truth. Shawn, I’m a human. A living human with freedom. You can’t control me like that!” Gale answered.
He was even bothered by her talking to a male colleague. What was going through his mind?
Why was he so strict?!
“I just care…When I see you being so friendly with others, I get jealous and envious,” Shawn said gently.
He wanted to be more open–minded, but he could not.
Shawn had always been someone who got what he wanted. He would eventually own everything he had his eyes on.
Similarly, anyone who looked at the woman he loved deserved the death sentence!
“I was just talking to him. It’s not like I like him! Can you stop being so jealous?!” Gale answered.
Shawn asked, “Then who do you like?”
It was suddenly quiet.
“Galey, do you like me? Has your heart moved for me? Even if it’s just a little.” Shawn asked.
Gale averted her gaze, not looking at him.
“If you don’t answer, then I’ll take it as a yes.”
Gale immediately said after that, “I don’t like you.”
“I don’t believe it.”
“You can believe whatever you want. How long do you plan on staying here?” Gale said.
Shawn hugged her tightly, lowering his chin onto her head. “I know you hate me. I know it’s hard for you to forgive me right now. Gale, even I find it hard to forgive myself.”
He could not sleep the whole night. He merely stood by the window in the study, smoking cigarette after cigarette.
He thought about a lot of things. He thought about everything that had happened that night and thought about the child.
If the child was still around, Shawn was sure that there was still a future in store for him and Gale.
It was just a pity…
Things would be different if Gale had another child, who could predict anything like that?

Before, Shawn could force her to satisfy himself, but at that moment, Shawn could not bring himself to do that anymore.
“Let me go. I’m leaving,” Gale said.
