"So, that's how it is."
Shirley suddenly realized.
Just as she was about to accept Garrick's apology, she thought of Sofia...
Then, she heard Garrick explain, "After you left yesterday, Pia told me about what happened between
you and Skyler. It's a matter between you guys, and I won't interfere. Of course, I would like to
apologize to you on Pia's behalf for hitting you last time. I scolded her yesterday too. However, my
spoiled sister never listens to me."
He shook his head while a graceful yet slightly resigned smile hung on his lips.
"You may have misunderstood. In fact, there's nothing between Skyler and me." Shirley quickly
explained the situation between her and Skyler, "He and I—"
"Like I said, this is a matter between you guys. I won't interfere."
Before Shirley could finish her words, Garrick interrupted her and handed a gift to her. "To express my
apology, this is a small token of my appreciation. Please accept it."
"It's alright. I didn't take it to heart."
Looking at the rectangular velvet box before her, Shirley felt the gift must be expensive. And so, she
returned it. "It's enough to have the misunderstanding cleared up. I choose to believe in your character,
Mr. Brennan."
She called him "President Brennan" awkwardly, but now she changed it to "Mr. Brennan," which proved
that Shirley believed in him.
"Aren't you going to open it and take a look?" He pointed to the box and asked in a gentle voice.
"Aren't you going to open it and take a look?" He pointed to the box and asked in a gentle voice.
Shirley smilingly shook her head.
"Hehe."
Seeing her reaction, Garrick laughed out loud, his laughter particularly soothing. "I've met many
women, but you're the first to refuse my gift."
Garrick then picked up the box and opened it, revealing a necklace inside.
He pointed to the tag on the necklace. "I got it for 526. It is a very affordable necklace. I know you won't
accept it if the item is too expensive, so I bought an inexpensive necklace as a token of goodwill. You
mustn't refuse again."
One would succeed if they knew their opponent well.
Garrick had inquired about Shirley and knew that she was honest, straightforward, independent, and
non-materialistic.
For a woman like her, receiving an expensive gift would only make her suspect his ulterior motives or
even reject it.
"Huh? This..."
Shirley never expected Garrick to be so meticulous.
She looked at the gold necklace. With its ordinary design, it clearly was not something meticulously
chosen.
However, for a billionaire CEO to be willing to buy a reasonably priced necklace, it did show some effort
on his part. It wouldn't be good if she refused.
Still, accepting it made her a bit uneasy.
"You really don't have to, Mr. Brennan. How about this? Why don't you treat me to a meal today as your
way of apologizing?"
"Hahaha, alright. As you wish."
He readily agreed to Shirley's suggestion.
It was already half past noon, and there was still an hour until lunchtime. It was unbearable for Shirley.
Helplessly, she could only find a few topics to chat with Garrick.
Ring ring ring—
Suddenly, Garrick's phone rang on the table. He picked up the phone and told Shirley, "Sorry, I must
take this call."
"Okay."
Shirley nodded and played with her phone, looking down.
"Yes.
"I'm discussing something with a friend at a cafe.
"North Primrose Avenue.
"I won't be going back for lunch. Bye."
Garrick said a few more words and hung up the phone.
Sitting together, Shirley and Garrick chatted about Shirley's company for a while. They got along quite
well.
"Hey, Gary."
Just as they were chatting, a loud voice suddenly interrupted their conversation.
They both looked over and saw Sofia wearing a fashionable and sexy crop top, revealing her belly
button, striding toward them.
Walking beside her was… Skyler.
