Skeletons Of The Marital Closet Chapter 1007
Why was Joshua calling him so early in the morning?What happened?The more he thought about it, the more flustered he became. Shawn got up and walked to the window to answer it. "Hello, Joshua."Joshua yelled, "It's bad, it's bad, Uncle Shawn! Something has happened!""Speak slowly and clearly.""Uncle Aurum is going to break up with Natalie and cancel the engagement. They are arguing, it's getting fierce! Natalie smashed everything in the dining hall, and no one is allowed in!" Joshua said.Shawn raised his eyebrows slightly.Aurum had broken off with Natalie so soon!?It was over. Something bad was going to happen!Right now, at the critical moment of unraveling the spell on Nicole, Aurum angered Natalie so much. What if…What if Natalie changed her mind!Damn it!Aurum could not wait! Why could he not wait a few more days before breaking up with Natalie?"What did they say when they quarreled?" Shawn frowned deeply and asked, "Did you hear anything?""It's because I h

Why was he in a rush after answering a phone call?"Shawn!"Nicole stood beside her, also with a confused expression on her face.While starting the car, Shawn gave instructions. "You don't need to send Nicole to kindergarten today. Just stay at home. The whole house is under strict house arrest, and you are not allowed to go out at will!"Natalie must be a lunatic.Crazies would do terrible things!What if Natalie did not find Gale and went to the kindergarten to attack Nicole?!Shawn must be on guard and not allow Nicole to fall into any danger again!"Yes, Mr. Wood!" the housekeeper replied."Shawn, I'm coming with you..."Before Winnie could finish speaking, Shawn kicked the gas pedal and drove away with a bang, driving out at lightning speed.The door closed slowly.Winnie realized that something was wrong. Something must have happened.She wanted to follow up and have a look!Winnie looked at the housekeeper. "Get the car ready. I'm going to follow!""Ms. Nightinga

No wonder she had not been seen all morning!Winnie became even angrier. She turned her head and returned to the living room, raising her hand as if to lose her temper and smash things.The housekeeper quietly reminded, "That purple clay pot tea set is Mr. Wood's favorite."Her hands froze immediately.She could not even smash things!She could not lose her temper as she pleased!Winnie has been going through a lot of ups and downs recently. Yesterday, she bullied Gale severely just for her joy and complacency, but today she has suffered continuously and is naturally upset!After thinking about it, Winnie called Shawn.Shawn, concentrating on driving, glanced at the phone screen and ignored it.At this time, how could he have time to talk to Winnie!Wood Group.Gale got off the bus, carried her bag, and walked to the company gate.It was the morning rush hour, there were many vehicles, and people were coming and going on the road.She swiped her card to enter the lobby of

"Gale, Aurum even admitted it in person. He told me in person that he loves you, and the person he likes is you, so he can't marry me because he only has you in his heart!""You can show off. The decade-long relationship between me and him is not as good as the past few years between you and him! Gale, you really are full of tricks. You have the last laugh!""What kind of coquettish tricks did you use to make Aurum fall in love with you? Tell me, tell me, what did you do to him!"Natalie's facial features were distorted.Gale could not get rid of her at all.There was no other way. Gale could only ask for help from the person next to her, "Call the security to come...save me!"Natalie was crazy and insane, and she did not know what to do!Natalie roared, "Answer my question! Why did Aurum fall in love with you? Why! Shawn is so devoted to you, and Aurum abandoned me for you... What magical powers do you have!"The security guards of the Wood Group building pushed aside the crow

She would never allow another woman to stand beside Aurum!Apart from her, no one can have Aurum!Gale nodded. "I hate it. I wish Winnie could die and tear her into pieces. But it's not because she took over Shawn.""Why?""It's because she attacked Nicole. That makes me angrier than when she and Shawn are together!"Natalie murmured, "In other words, in your heart, do you think… Nicole is more important than Shawn?""Actually, my husband and children are the most important people in my life, and there is no ranking. But what Shawn has done has greatly diminished his status in my heart. So, I can tell you clearly that Nicole is indeed more important than Shawn!"Natalie shook her head. "No, no, the husband is the most important...""When you have children, you will understand."Natalie started yelling again, "Even with a child, Aurum is still the most important person in my life! He is the life partner who accompanied me forever. I love him, I can't live without him, I would d

The director of the security department quickly said, "Mr. Wood, I...we...also, don't dare to touch Ms. Yarn..."Natalie is a person of status.They could not touch her casually.They might get into trouble later!What was more, Gale was not doing well.In the end, Shawn reprimanded, "Get out, useless thing, you are fired!"The security supervisor was dumbfounded."Let go of me. Let me go!" Natalie struggled desperately, but she could not move at all. "Mr. Wood, I'm Natalie. You can't treat me like others!""I know you are Natalie. So what? How special do you think you are?" Shawn snorted coldly."I am the daughter of the Yarn family! I am still Winnie's good friend! Don't you even care about Winnie?"What about Winnie?Where was she?"She's not here. Besides, do you think she will lose her temper with me because of you?" Shawn replied.Natalie was speechless for a moment.Shawn's heart sank slightly.Fortunately...Gale was fine.Otherwise, Natalie was doomed!Along th

Natalie roared, "Gale! How far have you and Aurum developed? Did you also sleep with him?"Speaking of this, Natalie suddenly remembered something. "Four years ago, I found out that you and Aurum often talked on the phone, and it was very secretive. Did you just... just... "Gale looked at her. "Aurum and I are innocent. We are just friends. Natalie, stop guessing. The man you have always loved is not as miserable as you imagined. I am not as shameless as Winnie!""Then you four years ago...""It's because Aurum helped me fake my death."Natalie was completely dumbfounded.What?Gale died and came back to life. It turned out to be a conspiracy!The person who planned all this was actually her bedmate, Aurum!Natalie felt like a thunderbolt had struck her, and she did not come back to her senses for a long time.She said stupidly, "Gale you...""You heard me right. What I said is the truth. Shawn is here, and he knows about it. I've already told him."From the beginning to t

She looked at him very sadly. "Aurum, why do you push the blame to me? Don't you care about me? Am I still the same Natalie, you know? Have you ever seen me in such a state of distress?"Natalie was very sad.However, she still loves Aurum deeply in her heart.As long as he looked at her, the love in her heart would grow uncontrollably.Aurum pulled her behind him. "You also know what you look like now, and it's not like the usual you at all!""I don't care about that much anymore! I'm going to lose you. Why would I care what I look like? No matter how good-looking, elegant or noble I am, I can't capture your heart! What's the use?" Natalie said."Natalie, it has nothing to do with you. You have done nothing wrong.""Since I'm right, why did you break up with me? Just because you love her?"Natalie raised his hand and pointed at Gale. It was obvious that she was very angry."It is indeed related to her, but..."Aurum did not know what to say.It was too complicated.Gale lo

Summer didn't know, but the more she said that, the more unsettled Gale felt inside. Everyone was telling her that Shawn wasn't that busy, didn't need to work overtime, let alone stay in the office until late at night. So, what was he doing that night? Did he have some secret that she couldn't know?Just as she was pondering this, several exclamations suddenly rang out in the office. "Wow! Look at this!" "Oh my god!" "This is so explosive!" "The hype is skyrocketing!"Several colleagues were glued to their computer screens, their faces full of gossip and excitement. Gale was puzzled and asked, "What's going on? What happened?"Summer immediately picked up her phone. "Let me see... Oh my god!"Gale grew even more curious. What on earth had happened? She hurried over and stared at Summer's phone screen.News stories flashed one after another, relentlessly. Gale quickly caught the most crucial information: "Ivy announced her withdrawal from her latest film, leaving the female
Skeletons Of The Marital Closet Chapter 2049
She wondered what Shawn was doing that night, that he came home only at dawn. Where did he go? Was he lying?Just a moment ago, Gale merely felt something was off, but now, she was overwhelmed with a strong sense of panic. Joshua's words about how women flocked to Shawn and how men would not be suddenly busy, suddenly flooded her mind.Even though Gale tried hard to tell herself not to overthink things, that it was impossible, and that Shawn deserved her full trust, she was having a hard time controlling herself!“Gale?" Summer called her several times. “What are you thinking about? You seem so distracted.”“Nothing,” she shook her head. “It’s nothing. I’m getting ready to work on the design. I really can’t delay any further.”She wasn’t in the mood to joke around with Joe and Summer anymore, so she turned and sat down in front of her computer. Her mind was completely blank. What on earth was Shawn doing that night when he came home so late? Clearly, there wasn’t any urgent matter

Summer chuckled, "Look at you, anyone who doesn't know might think I bully you just because my position is higher than yours. Gale, come on, show some authority. I heard from Joe that Shawn has all the shares...""Shh!" Gale quickly covered her mouth. This was a sensitive matter; it wouldn't do to discuss it casually. If someone with ill intentions overheard, it could lead to unnecessary trouble."Okay, okay, I won't say anything," Summer understood her meaning. "Let's talk about work then? Oh great designer, where's your design draft? It was due last week! You've been delaying for quite some time!"Gale looked embarrassed. "I... I haven't finished it yet...""Show me the draft.""I haven't even started the preliminary draft...""What?!" Summer looked shocked. "Gale, how did you become so lax?""There's so much going on, taking care of two children, and Shawn..." Gale's voice trailed off.At this moment, Joe suddenly appeared from nowhere. "Is Shawn clinging to you, or are you

“Sorry, Gale, I'll be more careful next time.” He hugged her, lightly brushing her forehead with his chin.Gale wondered if she was overthinking things. It was just normal work busyness that made Shawn come home a bit late, and she hadn't really minded or dwelled on it. But, it seemed this issue kept resurfacing in her mind.Just as she was thinking, she suddenly felt lighter."Ah..." Gale exclaimed, "Shawn!"He scooped her up horizontally and headed upstairs in large strides. It was another night of intense entanglement. Gale was tired and sleepy. Her eyes were barely open, but just before drifting off to sleep, she managed to say, "I have to go to work tomorrow, on time... no more skipping.""Okay."With Shawn's response, she immediately fell into a deep sleep.She left everything else to him… She was going to fall apart! She didn't know what was going on with Shawn, these past two nights have been endless. Before, he might ask for too much, but he would care about her physica

The trip back home was serene and filled with warmth for Gale. Shawn in contrast, felt tumultuous. By the time they arrived home, the two little ones were already fast asleep in the back seat, slumped over in different directions."Just a moment ago they were chattering non-stop, now they're all curled up asleep," Gale chuckled. "No matter how clever they are, they're still just kids."They were her little darlings. She opened the back door and gently lifted Nicole out. For some reason, when she lifted Nicole, she felt a bit unsteady and swayed."Careful," Shawn noticed and reached out, pulling her and their daughter into his embrace.Gale leaned securely against him. "With you here, how could I fall?""No worries, maybe Nicole's just gotten heavier as she's grown. I'm having trouble carrying her now," Gale said."Let me."She tilted her chin. "You take Joshua. I can manage for this short walk, really.""I can handle both," Shawn replied."Yeah, yeah, I know you're strong."S

"Alright, alright," Joshua shrugged and said, "Old man, you do your thing. Actually, I hope you could be a bit busier.""You want me to be busier?""Yeah, just a bit busier than now. Not too much, just a moderate increase," Joshua gestured, "You're always so leisurely, it makes me uneasy, Shawn!"Shawn asked, "What makes you uneasy?""Your business. I'll have to inherit it in the future! If you continue being so idle and not managing the company well, when I take over, I'll be swamped! Shawn, can't you think about your son?"So that was Joshua's concern. He feared Shawn wouldn’t manage the company well and it would burden him in the future.Gale sighed repeatedly, "How did I end up with such... "She couldn't find the right words.Smart?Mischievous?Shawn replied calmly, "Joshua, do you now realize you're my son? I should consider you? Then let me ask you, what do you want to call me?""Daddy."Joshua smoothly said.Both Shawn and Gale were somewhat surprised.He actuall

"Joshua!" Gale turned around to look at him. "What's been going on in that little head of yours day after day?"Joshua replied seriously, "I'm thinking about you, Mommy. Shawn leaves work on time every day, never stays late. Suddenly he's busy until midnight. Don't you think that's a bit strange?"As he said this, Gale felt something wasn't quite right. But she trusted Shawn enough. The company was big, with lots of business, so the occasional unexpected situation was normal. Even if she pushed the thought further, what would Shawn do? Would he be seeing other women? Gale wasn't concerned at all because Shawn wouldn't give any woman a chance! He loved only her and she was confident that she held the only place in his heart."Alright, I think you've been watching too many dramas lately," Gale said. "Joshua, from now on, you need to cut down on your TV drama time!""No! I refuse!""Joshua, your protest is futile!"Joshua was getting frustrated; he really wanted to watch TV.After

Joshua reluctantly said goodbye to Ivy, "Bye-bye, Ivy. I'll come over again when I have time. You can come to my house too! Love you! Mwah mwah!"He kept blowing kisses."Shawn," Gale looked at him, "Does your son know no shame?""I'm starting to suspect he might have a genetic mutation."Both Shawn and Gale were quite reserved by nature, especially in expressing their feelings. They loved subtly and rarely voiced it openly. But Joshua was different. He worked his charm on everyone from the old Lucas down to babies. He could make anyone happy if he wanted to!The car moved along the road.Gale asked, "What do you think about Ivy's condition today?""What do I think?""Yes.""I didn’t observe closely," Shawn replied. "Why?"Gale couldn't help but laugh, "I allow you to look and give your opinion. It's fine. You don’t have to create your distance so strictly.""She's better than last time," Shawn said. "Beyond that, I don’t know."Even if he knew, he couldn't say.Gale reac

Ivy stared at Gale, her eyes bright and clear.“Gale, if I hold the truth in my hands, would you want me to reveal it?”Gale nodded firmly. “Yes!”“Do you want to know the whole truth?”“I do!”Ivy blinked, then suddenly smiled. “Okay, okay, Gale, I know what to do now.”“Can you tell me now?”“Not yet.”“Why?” Gale asked. “Have you been threatened?”She grew tense all of a sudden.Ivy shook her head. “No. It’s just too complicated to explain in a few words. But with your support, I suddenly feel stronger and know what I need to do!”Even if President Wood tried to stop her, she would expose it. She would vent her anger, punish Paul, tear off Aurum’s hypocritical mask, let Gale know Aurum's ugliness... Ivy decided to act on her own. She resolved silently.Smells of food wafted from the kitchen.“Dinner’s ready,” Ivy smiled. “Joshua, Nicole, did you wash your hands?”They replied, “We’re going now!”“I’ll take you.”“No,” Gale stopped her. “They’re big enough to wash the
