Used?
She could certainly tell.
But what surprised Shirley was that she didn't expect Garrick to admit it directly and apologize to her in
person.
But why is he doing this?
When Shirley said nothing, Garrick continued, "This is our family's private matter, and we have never
mentioned it to the public. I wouldn't be telling you this if I didn't feel guilty toward you. Um..."
Garrick hesitated a bit on the phone. "How about this? When you're free, I'll make another appointment
and explain it to you in person."
It surprised Shirley how the president of Cyberten Holdings was humble and polite in front of her.
If she postponed it again, she would appear like she didn't know how to act according to the situation.
After all, Garrick made it clear that he wanted to apologize in person. He really might have something
that he struggled to tell her.
"I'll wait for you at the coffee shop where we last met in an hour."
She had just said that he had something to do, so if she went there now, it would prove that she had
lied.
Helpless, Shirley postponed it to an hour later.
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
The other party hung up the phone readily.
Shirley sat in her office chair, lost in thought as she thought about something. Soon, her phone on the
desk buzzed.
She picked up her phone and saw a missed call. She clicked on it...
It was Skyler.
But the phone only rang once before the call ended.
It was Skyler.
But the phone only rang once before the call ended.
What is Skyler up to?
As last night's events filled Shirley's mind, her cheeks involuntarily turned red. She threw her phone
aside and didn't reply.
An hour later, she appeared at the coffee shop as agreed.
She saw Garrick sitting by the window when she entered the coffee shop.
She walked straight over. "Sorry to keep you waiting, President Brennan."
Garrick, who was playing with his phone, was startled by Shirley's sudden appearance. He immediately
flipped his phone over and placed it on the table with the screen down.
"You're here. Would you like something to drink?" he asked.
Shirley beckoned to the waiter, who then approached and asked her, "Ma'am, what would you like?"
"Please bring me a cup of Blue Mountain coffee. Thank you."
"Of course. Please wait a moment." The waiter turned and left.
Shirley sat upright, her face no longer showing the innocent and naive smile from before. Instead, there
was a hint of indifference when she stated, "President Brennan, if there's something you need, please
go ahead and speak."
Garrick felt the change in Shirley's attitude toward him. Smiling gracefully, he took out something from
his briefcase and placed it on the table before Shirley. "I wonder if you have noticed this lady."
A photo of a beautiful woman wearing a white shirt was on the table.
Shirley remembered her at a glance. "I've seen her. I saw her at your birthday party at your house
yesterday."
Shirley remembered her quite well because she kept seeing the woman around Garrick. Not only that,
whenever this woman looked at Shirley, there was a mix of jealousy and disgust in her gaze.
"Her name is Nancy. She was introduced to me as a blind date by my aunt. She is fairly interested in
me and has been pursuing me. Of course, I've turned her down directly, but she's just too enthusiastic."
Shirley didn't say anything and listened quietly to Garrick's explanation.
"When you were at the company looking for me yesterday, my original plan was to return to the villa
after visiting your company. However, my father called me and told me to go back. When I got home, I
saw Nancy's car parked at the door. That's why I had you come in with me.
"My family, including my relatives, have all mistaken you for my girlfriend. I wanted to explain, but in
order to make sure Nancy no longer has feelings for me, I didn't publicly clarify your identity."
He then gave her a small nod. "Miss Wilson, I'm really sorry for the way I handled this. It was
ungentlemanly of me."
