Chapter 291
"What exactly happened to you?" Shawn asked, "If something happened, tell me. Stop crying. It's unbecoming!"
Gale sniffed and said, "I'll tell you, it's just that I don't know where to start."
"Tell me the first thing that comes to mind!"
Gale wiped her tears haphazardly. "Shawn, what happened between you and Susan?"
"Why are you asking that?"
"Answer me." Gale looked him in the eyes. It's very important."
Shawn averted his gaze. "I'll deal with what happened between the two of us. You don't have to bother."
As he said that, he turned around to leave.

Gale grabbed his sleeve, continuing, "I know, even if you don't want to say it. The night before you came to get me from the mental hospital,
something happened between you and Susan in a hotel, right?"
Shawn's gaze turned sharp. "How do you know this?"
Gale continued, "That night, you were drugged. You were alone in your room when Susan suddenly barged in, running away from someone. In the
darkness, you slept together."
"The room was very dark, and neither of you could see what the other looked like. You did not know who the other one was. When you woke up the
next day, there was no one by your side. That was when you started to look for Susan everywhere."
"Then, your subordinates told you that they found Susan. That night, she had been given to an old man by the dean. She refused to accept it, so
she ran out of her room and barged into yours by mistake."
"After that, you found Susan and promised to marry her because she used herself to save you

Saying that, Gale bit her lower lip. "Shawn, am I right?"
He asked, "How do you know everything in such detail? Did Susan tell you?"
"Ha, how could she possibly have told me all of that?"
"Then how did you know?" Shawn narrowed his eyes slightly. "Gale, where did you get the information from?!"
The matter was kept as a pretty tight secret.
Only he and Susan knew!
Gale's eyes were filled with tears. "Shawn, that night, you even said that you would take responsibility and marry her..."
An uneasy feeling started to surface in Shawn's head.
Those details were something only Susan could know in such detail!
He suddenly grabbed Gale's shoulders. "You, you..."
A terrifying thought flashed in his mind. However, Shawn did not dare to think about it further!

Gale clutched her face as massive tears started to fall. "Shawn, the woman from that night wasn't Susan, but me..."
Shawn's whole body stiffened.
The whole room was filled with the sound of Gale's crying.
"Shawn, from the beginning, Susan never appeared in the hotel because I was the one who was given to the old man. The woman
who barged into your room in a panic had been me. The one you said you would marry was me as well.."
"The dean tricked me out of the mental
hospital, sending me to the hotel. It was because the old man had his eyes on Susan,
but the dean was not willing to give her up. So, the dean sent me over to gain the old man's favor."
Shawn was incredibly shocked and rapidly retreated as his whole body swayed.
He could not accept that truth!
"It was you? No, that's impossible! I told you I would marry you back then. Why did you have to run?!" Shawn said.
"Because it was disgraceful! I didn't know that person was you either! I was the woman who you left in the mental hospital to atone for my father's
sins. If you found out that I had already lost my innocence, you would have been enraged!"
Shawn heaved as he clenched his fists tightly. The reality was far too cruel!
