“M–Mr. Wood…” Duphine was shocked to see him, “Gale was the one at fault!”
In the company, Shawn was famous for his bad temper.
On top of that, there was a rumor amongst the employees that Shawn and Gale’s relationship was not
a simple one. Duphine thought that she was in trouble, so she quickly shifted the blame.
In the first place, Gale had been the one to bump into her!
“She bumped into me and caused my coffee to spill. It stained my clothes,” Duphine said, “Mr. Wood, I’
m just doing what’s in my rights to do.”
Gale was about to explain when Shawn said, “So what if she’s the one at fault?”
Duphine’s eyes widened.
“I’m still going to protect her,” Shawn said, “So what if she bumped into you? Did you lose a limb?”
“Mr. Wood…”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNo one expected Shawn to be so protective of Gale!
Even if Gale was at fault, he would still stand on Gale’s side!
Gale was surprised at all.
If Shawn really favored someone, there really was no such thing as ‘fairness‘.
He would favor whoever he wanted.
“Think before you speak. I won’t take the blame for this. one,” Gale stood up from Shawn’s arms, “Dup
hine, I did bump into you, and I apologized. I was also willing to compensate you, but you
were the one who tried to take my clothes forcefully!”
“You said you would give me those clothes!”
“I said I would give you
some new clothes, but what about my arm?” Gale revealed her arm to her, “I haven’t even talked about
how your coffee scalded me!”
The spots that had been scalded burned a little.
She knew that she had been at fault, so she did not bring
it up.
Since Duphine wanted to cause so much trouble, then she decided to forget about being nice!
“You were scalded?” Gale looked down and quickly grabbed her hand, “Fiona!”
“Yes, Mr. Wood.”
“Bring me the ointment.”
“Yes.”
Fiona was incredibly efficient, and quickly brought the burn ointment over.
Gale looked down and applied the ointment for Gale himself.
The colleagues were all looking…
Gale wanted to pull back her hand, but he grabbed her tightly, “Don’t move.”
“I–I can do it myself.”
Duphine was incredibly scared when she saw what was happening, “I didn’t do it to her. She was the o

Gale looked up at her coldly.
With his aura and his status, Duphine could not even bear to look him in the eye.
Her legs went weak as knelt down on the ground with a plop.
“Since you keep insisting that Gale is at fault, then I’ll just let her faults go all the way,” Shawn said, “Fio
na, go buy a cup of coffee. Make sure it’s hot.”
“Yes, Mr. Wood.”
“Why are you buying coffee?” Gale asked softly, “Are you giving one back to her?”
Shawn did not answer, and instead asked, “Does it hurt?”
The coffee had not been that hot, so she was fine. The ointment was quite cooling, so she felt
much better after it was applied.
She looked at the spots that were reddened, “Anyone who hurts you should die.”
Gale shuddered at those words.
“But, you’re the person who hurt me the most,” She said, “Shawn, should you die?”
“You don’t want me to die. When the knife was in your hands, you didn’t stab me in the heart.”
