Chapter 271

“He won't have anything to hold against me then. He won't be able toforce me to stay. If he doesn’t allow me to leave normally, then I'll justescape.”

Only an escape with the right plans and arrangements in place wouldhave 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 getto hear Susan's conversation with her mother, she would also be ableto replace out even more secrets from Susan in the long term.

She hoped that everything would be fine in the few days she did nothave 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 upaccidentally bumping into someone.

“Och! That's hot! Gale, are you blind?!"

The coffee that was in Duphine’s hands was completely spilled. Half ofit was spilled on herself, while the other half was on Gale's arm.

Gale's arm completely reddened, but only Duphine’s clothes had gottensoaked.

“You're so unlucky!” Duphine scolded, “Nothing happened when youweren't at the company. The moment you came, you caused somethingto happen! No one even knows where you've been for more than aweek. Do you think the company is your home? Do you think you canjust 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, whichmade 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 forthem.”

“Haha, the dry cleaners, then what do I wear?”

“You can wear my clothes, or I can get you a new one from the mallacross the street.”

Duphine said with disgust, “Your clothes... Huh? Are they evenauthentic? Gale, can you even afford such expensive clothes with yoursalary? This one is worth about ten thousand!”

Gale looked down at her clothes.

That was just something she casually picked out from the cloakroom inthe master bedroom. It had been prepared

by Shawn.

Was it that expensive? Around ten thousand?

It was just a jacket...

“Y-you can just take it off. Give me yours in return,” Duphine said,“Then we can forget about this.”

She looked at Gale's jacket.

It was a limited winter edition jacket from a luxury brand. It was onlysold to VIP customers. They might not even sell it to those who had themoney!

Gale had not cared about it, but when she saw the look on Duphine’sface, Gale was suddenly unwilling to take the jacket off.

“I'll go buy a set of clothes for you at the mall, or give you money forsome clothes,” She said, “We'll just settle this matter like that.”

“What? You're going back on your words?"

“I'm not used to others wearing my clothes.”

Duphine was unhappy with that response, “I don't care. I want you togive me your clothes!”

As she said that, she reached out to grab Gale's jacket!

Gale was the one at fault anyway!

Gale did not expect that Duphine would do something so messed up!“Let go, you're invading my personal space here... I can report you tothe police, Duphine!”

When their colleagues saw what was happening, the colleagues allavoided them quietly.

No one wanted to get involved.

Gale had just been discharged from the hospital. She was not in a goodstate both mentally and physically, so she did not have as muchstrength as Duphine.

One sleeve had already been pulled off the jacket.

Suddenly, Duphine let out a sharp cry, “Ah!”

She had been picked up with one hand and pulled back quickly,causing her to slam against the wall heavily.

Gale was shocked. She suddenly raised her head to meet Shawn'seyes.

After that, her body suddenly felt warm. Shawn had taken off his suitjacket and draped it over her body.

He covered her up completely.

He did not want anyone else to see her white and delicate skin!
