Sasha asked hesitantly, "Did Yvonne tell him about it?"
Eric shrugged and said, "I'm not sure."
Sasha said, "But since you saw them together, there must be a possibility that she did. I'll ask her tomorrow."
Eric didn't stop her and simply said, "Sure."
Then, Sasha exclaimed, "As expected of the most curious gossiper in the company! You can always capture key information like these."
Feeling embarrassed, Eric said, "I'm not very gifted—it's all hard work."
Sasha laughed when he said that. She remarked, "You're so humble."
As the topic came to an end, Sasha took a sip of her juice. Then, a look of disdain crept onto her face. Noticing the shift in her mood, Eric immediately asked, "What's on your mind?"
Without much thought, Sasha answered, "I just thought Shane was so shameless! I'm not related to him in any way, but he dared to ask me for money.
"I gave him money, but he wanted more! So what if I earned a lot of money? Must I give it to him? I don't owe him anything!"
Eric chimed in to criticize Shane, too. He said, "Yeah! Even his father refused to support him financially anymore. But he came to apologize to you and ask you to give him money… How is that even possible? Right?"
