"All right, it's fine. I don't want it, I'm not desperately begging him to give it to me. Why should we make this difficult? I might not see Mr. Gu again, so please convey my message to him. I enjoyed working with him."
Allen stood there, dumbfounded.
He didn't expect her to turn it down.
Wouldn't anyone else have accepted it?
Isn't four years of youth valuable?
This was a form of indirect compensation, and she didn't want it.
...
As she stepped outside the law firm, Eleven took a deep breath, savouring the ambience of this bustling city.
Feels good!
She suddenly felt liberated. As of today, she was single again!
Maybe it was just a psychological effect, but even the air seemed fresher.
On the way home, she recalled what Allen had said and couldn't help but smile.
Apparently, Mr. Gu is still quite considerate, isn't he? Even after our divorce, he wanted to compensate her.
However, she simply didn't want to accept it.
