Chapter 2282: Chapter 2496

Sally feared him, so she reluctantly admitted, “I’m sorry, I can’t.

”

Dulcie smiled, gently touching her cheek.

“It’s alright.

I was just teasing.

Kyson hasn’t mistreated me, really…”

Sally remained unconvinced.

“Dulcie, don’t keep it to yourself.

It pains me to see you like this.

You’re a member of the Shaw family now, and we mustn’t mistreat you.

”

Dulcie was moved by her words.

Fortunately, within the Shaw family, Ryder genuinely treated her as a sister-in-law, and Sally regarded her as both friend and family.

Suddenly, the trivial instances of Kyson’s deliberate bullying seemed insignificant.

Struggling to hold back tears, Dulcie changed the subject.

“I’m so hungry.

Could you pass me the cereal, Sally? I really need something to eat.

”

“Sure.

”

Sally promptly handed her the porridge from the bedside table, cautioning, “Be careful, it might be hot.

”

As Dulcie ate, Sally remarked, “Dulcie… I think Kyson has already left for work.

If he’s upset with you, he probably hasn’t calmed down yet since he looked so stern.

”

Dulcie reluctantly responded, “Then I… I’ll try to find a chance to apologize to him.

”

“You don’t need to be overly humble.

Allow him to be angry.

Refrain from apologizing.

I doubt he’ll remain indifferent to his newlywed wife for long,” Sally said indignantly as she helped her settle in.

“In the coming days, I’ll arrange for the driver to take you to and from work.

”

“No, thank you.

I don’t think I’ll make the same foolish mistake as last night.

”

As Sally mentioned work, Dulcie suddenly remembered she had to get ready.

“Damn it!”

She glanced at her phone for the time, noting fifteen minutes until work started.

She was going to be late!

Setting aside her unfinished porridge on the bedside table, she prepared to get out of bed.

“What’s wrong?” Sally interrupted urgently.

“I’m running late for work.

”

The director praised her progress and performance in a private meeting yesterday.

It would be embarrassing to be late today.

“No worries.

Before leaving, Kyson instructed you to rest well today Kurt has already arranged for your leave at the company.

”

“Did the director approve?”

Sally giggled, her pretty face looking particularly cute.

“Or what?”
