Chapter 373
That evening, at the end of a workday for Creative Arts Corporation, Shawna was driving her car out. She stopped at the security booth for a while. Poking her head out, she said, “Let's go, Dustin.”
"It's not the end of my shift yet," Dustin said.
"It's fine. Let's go." Shawna looked indifferent.
After experiencing what happened today, she did not know how she should behave with Dustin.
Dustin was the leader of Star Tower and commanded all sorts of powerful people. But he was working as a security guard for Shawna.
Shawna could no longer treat Dustin in the same way she had before.
Ever since Zion Larson had visited, Shawna's attitude had started to change.
Although she did not show it, Dustin still felt that she had gotten more distant.
Shawna was not the sort of person who sucked up to those in power.
Maybe it was because she felt that she was inferior, so she was distancing herself from Dustin.
Dustin did not think he should mention anything about that.
He got in the car and set off for home.
In the car, the two of them were silent while lost in their own thoughts.
Dustin was thinking about all the arrangements he had to make afterward.
Once he got news of his sister Diana, he would rush over to her no matter what.
Meanwhile, Shawna's thoughts were a mess.
Shawna was grateful that Dustin kept helping her, but she did not know how she should navigate her relationship with him and keep a distance.
Although she really wanted to do that, she was nervous about wanting to get closer to him.
She could not get a handle on her messy emotions. Thus, she could only quietly drive the car.
Not long after setting off, there was an explosive pop.
"The tire's busted." Shawna frowned after she got out of the car and took a look.
"I'll call someone to come get it fixed." Dustin took out his phone to make a call.
Afterward, the two of them waited by the roadside.
After a while, Dustin said that he was going to the bathroom and left for a moment.
Shawna was very bored as she waited.
She looked at the things in the car and felt even more torn.
She did not know how much money all those things in the car had cost.noveldrama
They were items all those powerful people had gifted Dustin when they visited Dustin had given some of them to her even though she had staunchly rejected them.
These things had come from powerful people. Without even having to think too much, Shawna knew that they were all rare and precious.
Seeing how calm Dustin was, Shawna did not know how much he was hiding. She could not see through Dustin at all.
She had a strong feeling that Dustin was not just the leader of Star Tower.
"Hey!"
Just as she was lost in her thoughts, there was a cry from up ahead.
"Shawna! Shawna!"
Someone was calling her name.
Shawna looked over and saw a fashionable-looking woman up ahead. She held a phone in her hand and was waving and shouting with enthusiasm.
"Devina Angelis?" Shawna recognized the woman. Devina was a good friend from high school. They were not really in contact anymore.
Devina lifted the hem of her skirt and ran over to her. By the time she reached Shawna, she was panting.
“Shawna, what's up with you? You །
don't reply to any messages in our alumn@group chat or answer any calls, Devina said while still out of breath.
"What?" Shawna was a bit surprised.
She had muted that group chat a long time ago. When she checked her phone, she found that it had been turned to silent mode at some point. There were many missed calls from Devina.
