The meeting did not matter much to her. She did not want to see him and cause him to miss her.He should live out his bright future.Peach said, "Then I'll go. I guess Mr. Carson will ask me again today about your recent situation..."Gale smiled and said, "Tell him I'm fine, and I hope he can be better. Although we don't meet each other, our childhood memories will always be in my heart."Peach made an OK gesture, took the documents and bag, and left.As soon as she left, the phone on Gale's desk rang."Hello, this is the jewelry department. I'm..." "Come to my office. Come quickly," Summer said.Gale held her forehead.She knew what was going on.Only Summer would dare to gossip!"Fine."Gale sat opposite Summer, looking at each other.Summer said, "Come clean. Don't make me ask. There was such a big commotion in the morning, and the security guards were even called. The director of the security department was immediately fired. What happened?""It was Natalie who ca

Based on Joe's understanding of Shawn, this was simply a fantasy.Impossible!Summer was so unconvincing. "Hey, you started writing it yourself!""I'm just talking."Summer retorted, "Things can only go as I predicted based on what happened!"Joe asked, "Are you sure what you see is the truth?"She did not know what Shawn had up his sleeve.However, it will be revealed soon.At that time...he would be able to win the bet, and Summer would be his girlfriend for a month!When Joe asked, Summer was confused again.However, she quickly firmed her judgment and never wavered!Summer stomped her feet. "You can't just set off smoke bombs here just to beat me!"Gale's eyes turned around the two of them.She accurately captured the keywords. "Beat? What do you mean? What are you two doing behind my back? What bet did you make?""Nothing!""Nothing!"Both denied it at the same time.Although Joe and Summer were enemies, they were never at odds.However, the two of them have a ta

Winnie got up immediately when she saw him walk in. "Shawn! You're finally back! I've been waiting for you all day. Why didn't you answer my calls or reply to my messages?"Shawn glanced at her coldly.The sharpness and sternness in his eyes made Winnie subconsciously take two steps back.She was a little nervous and scared. "What's wrong, Shawn? What happened?"Shawn did not answer but looked at the housekeeper. "Where's Nicole?""Ms. Nicole is in her playroom, accompanied by two servants."He nodded.Winnie smiled, walked over and took his arm. "Nicole is very obedient, and she keeps asking when you will go home."Shawn lowered his head deeply and glanced at her hand.Winnie still held him tightly.He did not brush it away either and just walked to the master bedroom on the second floor."Shawn, you are very tired after working all day. I can't help you with much. I can only massage your shoulders and legs… Do you want some fruit or do you want some tea?""I'll get you pa

What happened?Countless questions flashed through Winnie's mind.She used to feel that she was in control of everything, but now she felt that she was the one being controlled!Shawn continued to order, "Call and ask. You should know what to do."Winnie looked at him. Her mind suddenly went blank, and she lost her ability to think. She felt that Shawn seemed to...know everything!However, how did Shawn know?Shawn's voice sank, and he threw the phone at her. "Are you ignoring my orders? Do as I say!"Winnie stretched out her hand tremblingly, picked up the phone, and looked at Natalie's number but did not dial it for a long time.It was because her intuition told her not to call it.However, she has no second choice!At this moment, Shawn was like a devil from hell, scaring her!Once you disobey his orders, you will suffer horrible consequences!Seeing that Winnie was motionless, Shawn stretched out his hand and tapped twice on the screen.He dialed her number and turned

"You're yelling at me? Winnie, it's not your turn to tell me what to do! I don't want to undo Nicole's spell!" Natalie was very upset."You need to at least give me a reason!"Suddenly, Natalie got irritated and yelled, "Because I hate Gale! I want her daughter to never remember her. I want her to be tortured forever! Does she want to take her daughter away? I will do whatever it takes to make Gale suffer!"Winnie did not know how to answer, and she looked up at Shawn.Shawn looked at her darkly and said silently, "Continue.""How did Gale offend you?""Aurum loves her! He told me that he loves Gale and wants to break up the engagement with me! So, how can I make Gale feel better?" Natalie yelled hysterically.Winnie was dumbfounded.Aurum actually fell in love with Gale?No wonder Natalie suddenly refused to do it!Shawn's face was also extremely ugly, and he guessed that Aurum's sudden move made Natalie lose control of his emotions and change what had been agreed upon!Dam

Once Natalie had a spell on him, then... Aurum would fall in love with Natalie with all his heart, and he would never love Gale again, let alone cancel the engagement.Was this good for Shawn?He did not even need to make a move, and he got rid of his love rival!He had to find another way to cure Nicole.Then, should Shawn allow Natalie to control Aurum, or should he save him? For him, Natalie's spell has no harm, only benefits.However, could he just stand by and watch?Would that be going overboard?Galey clearly told him that she would accept Aurum once she regained her freedom.Shawn slowly closed his eyes.Winnie secretly heaved a sigh of relief when Shawn finally took that cold gaze away from her. She tried to explain, "Shawn, the spell in Nicole's body... Yes, it was actually Natalie who put it there, and it has nothing to do with me. Don't blame me, and don't hate me.""It's all her fault. As you have heard, she is now an out-of-control lunatic, stimulated by a g

In the master bedroom, Winnie was lying on the sofa with a hand on her neck.Her face was flushed, and her eyes were wide open. She was almost out of breath, and she made a hoarse sound.Shawn tightly strangled her neck.Winnie wanted to yell, to attract Gale or anyone's attention to rescue her...However, she could not.Shawn's strength was stronger than ever before!She felt...he really wanted to strangle her!"Shawn…"Winnie started to roll her eyes uncontrollably.If this continued, she would really suffocate to death!Veins popped on Shawn's arm, and the back of his hand turned white from the force.She wanted to raise her hand to save herself, but all the air in her lungs had been squeezed out, and she did not have any strength at all.Her vision gradually blurred, and her consciousness began to slip...Seeing that Winnie really could not hold on any longer, Shawn let go, seeing she still had some value left in her.Now was not the time to kill her!He looked at he

Instead, Shawn broke her fingers with force.Crack!The sound of bone dislocation resounded!"Ah!" Winnie cried out in pain and had to let go!"Don't touch me. You don't deserve it!" Shawn said grimly.He continued to walk out of the room.Then, he said, "Unless your legs want to be broken, you better stay put!"Winnie stood where she was and could only watch him go away helplessly.What happened?How did Shawn become like this?It was impossible for him to treat her like this... What went wrong?Outside the master bedroom, the bodyguard shouted respectfully, "Mr. Wood, do you need any more help tonight?"Shawn glanced at him deeply, "Do you miss that feeling?"The bodyguard smiled embarrassedly. "Yes, Mr. Wood.""You are rewarded.""Thank you, Mr. Wood! Thank you!"Shawn walked toward the second bedroom. "Old rules, remember to turn off the lights. Don't let her find out."At least Winnie still had not realized the man she slept with was not Shawn!However, that day

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
