Skeletons Of The Marital Closet

Chapter 968

Was that not the cleaner who was cleaning up around the meeting room the day before?

The cleaner smiled. "Yes, all the important people were around yesterday, so I didn't manage to speak to you."

Gale looked at him and said, "Did your superior give you any difficulty?"

The cleaner said, "No, he resigned."

"Resigned? By himself?"

"Yes."

Gale had a strange look on her face.

What happened?

Joe wanted to fire the man, but Shawn had defended him. Logically, the man should have stayed in the company.

Why would he resign for no reason?

Did Joe threaten the man in private?

She would go ask Joe later.

Before Gale could understand it, she saw that Shawn was walking over.

Whatever, she had to avoid Shawn first!

Gale said, "That's great. No one will cause you any trouble. I still need to work. Good bye."

She pressed the button and walked into the elevator, worried that Shawn would stop it.

Thankfully, the elevator went up without issue.

Gale sighed in relief.

When she reached her department, she saw Joe and remembered that she wanted to ask him something. Yet, for some reason, her mind was completely blank. She could not remember her question at all!

Gale stared at Joe just like that, trying her best to think about it.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Joe knocked on her desk after walking over. "Is it my manly charms?"

Peach spat out the water she had just drunk.

That truly made Gale forget about everything.

She said emotionlessly, "Mr. Winter, I'm sorry. I'm allergic to men."

Joe laughed. "Hahahah. A woman who loved Shawn before would probably never have her eyes on another man."

"Who's loved him before?"

"Alright alright, you've never loved him. There were never any feelings."

Gale said, "Exactly."

"Actually, Shawn is just too smart. Sometimes, we would need to think for a very long time before we can understand what he's doing. We'd have to struggle even to understand how far he can see. Back then, he wanted to buy a company. Everyone opposed it, but he remained firm, silencing all opposition. Guess what happened after that? Even with all the negative feedback, the company's shares rose by two hundred percent in a year. The Wood Group managed to earn a lot as the largest shareholder.

"From that moment on, Shawn's business ability was acknowledged by the whole company. His name spread throughout the whole city, and he was the youngest and most capable president." Gale asked, "Mr. Winter, what are you trying to say? Can you be more straightforward?"

Joe looked at her and said, "Ahem, I just wanted to say that, even if Shawn's not acting too normally right now, he probably has his own plans. You just need to wait for a while, and you'll understand what he's doing. Gale, you need to give him some time. Give him a chance, trust him. Wait for him. I think...”

Joe slowly said, "He won't disappoint you."

After being close friends for so long, Joe could not claim to understand Shawn completely, but Joe definitely had a good idea of how Shawn was.

Shawn's love for Gale could not be hidden. It was always there.

In the four years when Gale was supposedly dead, Shawn threw himself into his work, devoting his all to the company. He looked increasingly tired every day, trying to numb himself with his work. Joe had seer it all.
