Chapter 284

"Mr. Wood," Fiona held the lunchbox and knocked on the door, "Lunch is here."

A cold voice was heard, "No need."

"Oh, Mrs. Wood ordered it for you."

"Enter."

Fiona breathed a sigh of relief. Gale's name really was useful.

Shawn sat in front of the desk. He stared at the box, "She bought it?"

"Yes," Fiona said smoothly, "You're still in her heart... She's a girl. They rarely mean what they say. Sometimes, you shouldn't take it too seriously."

Shawn coldly snorted.

He looked reluctant, btu his hands honestly took up the utensils.

"It's not bad," he said. He saw the card and glanced at it.

Even though Shawn did not show too much emotion, his expression calmed down quite a bit.

Fiona breathed a sigh of relief.

The meal was clearly the same as what he had ordered before, but Shawn had never praised it.

The moment he said Gale ordered it, it suddenly tasted better in Shawn's eyes.

Love really did make people blind.

Gale returned to her department and sat on her seat, dazed.

In truth, she did not dare to think about what her life would be like if she had Shawn's child.

It would mean that she would never be able to leave Shawn.

She just wanted to replace out the truth and prove her father's innocence before cutting ties with the Wood family, never returning.

It seemed like it was a pipe dream.

Her phone started to ring, "Gale, Gale, the headphones are here! Come quickly!"

When she got the message from Summer,

Gale immediately stood up and hurried over to Summer's office.

"It's brand new. I just opened it," Summer said, "Quickly, test it out."

Looking at the headphones, Gale was incredibly emotional, "So quick?"

"I kept on chasing them to get it done. Put it on and listen. What day did Susan visit your mother?"

Gale picked up the headphones, clearly remembering the date.

She felt some emotions that she could not describe.

She wanted to quickly replace out what Susan said to her mother, but Gale was actually a bit afraid to face it.

"Huh? The two of you are here?" Joe suddenly knocked on the door and walked in, "You're huddled together so mysteriously. What are you doing?"

Gale was surprised, "Mr. Winter."

They could not let Joe replace out about the bug!

"Ah, why are you here?" Summer immediately smiled and walked forward, "Mr. Winter, you could just call us to let us know if you need anything. You didn't have to come here yourself."

Joe looked like he had seen a ghost, "Summer, did you take the wrong meds today?"

Summer was never so respectful to him. She never seemed to care about their difference in rank, and would never call him "Mr. Winter".

"Of course not, I'm perfectly fine. Mr. Winter, let's go to your office. Your position is higher than mine. It's not right for you to keep coming over here."

As she said that, Summer pushed at Joe, wanting Joe to leave so he would not disturb Gale.

Joe was a bit incredulous, "The two of you..."

"Let's go, let's go."

Summer pulled Joe away and shut the door behind her. Before she left, she shot Gale a look.

Gale let out a sigh of relief.

She could finally listen to the recording in peace.

However, before she chose the time and date, she heard a recording which caught her interest.
