Chapter 712
It had been some time since they last met, so Skyler was surprised to meet Shirley on this day, and
little did he think that she was so down and out she was now an attendant at Philwind, much less that
she was trying to hook up with Garrick!
Is she still the Shirley Wilson I know?!
Gianna, on the other hand, looked grim from being inexplicably yelled at, and she sat next to Skyler
after taking a gander at Shirley, saying nothing more.
Meanwhile, Shirley caught the other women's disdainful look at her, and she left the private room,
ultimately unable to take it anymore.
That said, she didn't leave for good, just standing at the entrance, waiting for the people in Rose
Lounge to leave.
At last, the people inside finally came out after two hours, and Shirley, who had been standing by
Garrick's car, immediately came forward when she saw him approaching her direction.

mustered up her courage and volunteered as she looked at a drunk Garrick. "I'm a pretty decent driver
if I do say so myself."
She noticed from their game of poker that while the other men were fondling the women in their arms,
Garrick was the only man who had never touched a woman the entire time.
Thus, she trusted that he was a true gentleman.
Meanwhile, Garrick rubbed his temples and moved away from the biondie who was keeping him
steady. "You go back ahead. She'll drive me." At that, he chucked his car key to Shirley.
Elated, she instantly opened the back door, helped Garrick into the vehicle, got into the driver's seat,
and drove away, ignoring the biondie's jealous gaze the entire time.
"Goldgulf Court," Garrick muttered before going to sleep.
Shirley said nothing either the entire drive, keeping her eyes focused on the road while following the
directions on the GPS.
A little over forty minutes later, they arrived at Goldgulf Court, a lavish mansion, and as Shirley pulled
over, the butler came out from the house.
It wasn't after she opened the back door that she realized Garrick was asleep, and she dared not wake
him up.
"Thank you for sending Mr. Garrick back," the butler in his fifties thanked Shirley courteously while
closing the back door, then asked her to leave. "It's really late now. You should go home."
At that, Shirley pursed her lips and said, "Oh, alright. I'll be going then."
The next second, the butler entered the driver's seat and drove the car into the mansion as the fancy
gate closed automatically behind.
Shirley, on the other hand, turned around, and her heart sank while
looking at the darkness up ahead. How am I supposed to go home when it's already so late, and there
isn't a car in sight?
Inside the mansion, Garrick opened his eyes after the car stopped. "She's gone?"

"Yes, sir," the butler answered.
To that, Garrick rubbed his temples, exited the car, and removed his suit jacket while heading into the
living room, where Sofia happened to be watching a soap opera.
"You said Skyler likes a girl by the name Shirley Wilson?" he asked soberly as he sat in the armchair
across from Sofia after chucking his jacket on the backrest.
Sofia nodded with a perfunctory hum of affirmation as she patted the sheet mask on her face.
"She's also the reason he didn't want to marry you after you came back?"
"Why else do you think?! Huh, if it wasn't that he kept her close, I'd have mangled that b*tch!"
Sofia had never feared anything in life, so it was even less likely she would fear Shirley. It was merely
because Skyler had warned her in private that she dared not cross Skyler.
"Are you sure she's the one who affected your engagement?" Garrick had doubts.
"Of course!" Sofia got inexplicably exasperated mentioning Shirley, and she ripped her sheet mask off,
huffing, "Skyler had even moved in with that b*tch! It's her fake angelic personality that lured Skyler
away from me!"
Garrick wasn't an idiot. Skyler showed up with a woman named Gianna...
