Chapter 271
“He won’t have anything to hold against me then. He won’t be able to force me to stay. If he doesn’t allow me to leave normally, then I’ll just escape.”
Only an escape with the right plans and arrangements in place would have a high chance of success.
Otherwise, she would quickly be found by Shawn.
Gale left the office in a depressed mood. 1
The headphones were too important for her… Not only would she get to hear Susan’s conversation with her mother, she would also be able to find out even more secrets from Susan in the long term.
She hoped that everything would be fine in the few days she did not have the headphones.
She hoped that there would be no further incidents.
Gale was so immersed in her own emotions that she was
not paying attention to where she was walking. She ended up accidentally bumping into someone.
“Och! That’s hot! Gale, are you blind?!”
The coffee that was in Duphine’s hands was completely spilled. Half of it was spilled on herself, while the other half was on Gale’s arm.
Gale’s arm completely reddened, but only Duphine’s clothes had gotten soaked.
“You’re so unlucky!” Duphine scolded, “Nothing happened when you weren’t at the company. The moment you came, you caused something to happen! No one even knows where you’ve been for more than a week. Do you think the company is your home? Do you think you can just come and go as you please?!”
Duphine was already someone who caused trouble with Gale normally, and it was Gale who bumped into her this time. Gale was at fault, which made Duphine even more assertive and aggressive.
“I’m sorry,” Gale apologized, “I wasn’t looking at where I was going. Your clothes… I’ll send them to the dry cleaners for you. I’ll pay for them.”
“Haha, the dry cleaners, then what do I wear?”
“You can wear my clothes, or I can get you a new one from the mall across the street.”
Duphine said with disgust, “Your clothes… Huh? Are they even authentic? Gale, can you even afford such expensive clothes with your salary? This one is worth about ten thousand!”
Gale looked down at her clothes.
That was just something she casually picked out from the cloakroom in the master bedroom. It had been prepared
by Shawn.
Was it that expensive? Around ten thousand?
