The gossiping researcher sighed once more. “I probably shouldn't have said anything about the basement
incident, but... you look so pitiful that | couldn't help myself.”
He paused, then began recounting the details, speaking with a sense of relish.
“Not long ago, in the break room, a lot of people witnessed Mr. Shaw ask Alice to strip. He even got intimate with
