Gale pushed him with both hands.Why was he trying this again!"Galey, tell me, do you really love Aurum? Will you get together with him after we get a divorce? Are you angry with me?""Leave me alone!""I want to know the truth."If she really loves Aurum more than him and thinks that being with Aurum will make her happy, he will let her go. Even if he would be heartbroken and depressed all his life.He just wanted her to be happy and wanted her to get what she wanted.Love is a blessing. It is to make her life better and let her go. This is what she taught him.Shawn remembered what he had learned.However, it would result in him being really sad.Gale stared at him. "We have already discussed this issue today, and I don't want to say more.""I need you to confirm repeatedly that you love Aurum."Gale asked, "So what if it's confirmed? Could it be possible that you will bless him and me?"Shawn replied without even thinking about it, "I just want to respect your wishes

Gale said, "That's good! I will leave. You don't need to think about me. Without you, Shawn, I, Gale, can still live! There are still people who love me!"Fortunately, she thought just now that Shawn finally understood what love was.It turned out she was mistaken.Gale thought about it, only to realize that he was only doing it for himself and Winnie. He was planning for his and Winnie's future!Gale knew it would be a good choice if Aurum were with her. In Shawn's eyes, she had found a perfect next family, and he would not feel indebted to her.Shawn pursed his thin lips lightly. "So, Galey, you love Aurum. You will be with him, get married, have children, and grow old together, right?""Yes!"Gale deserved to be decisive and straightforward.Shawn asked again, "Are you sure?""Sure!""Really?""Yes!""Don't you regret it?""I will never regret it!"After repeated probing and questioning by Shawn, Gale always gave an affirmative answer.Shawn's heart for her finally di

She got up early, packed the schoolbag for Nicole, and cooked breakfast herself.When she untied her apron and came out of the kitchen, she saw that Shawn was sitting at the dining table, drinking coffee and eating her fried eggs."Shawn!""Huh?" He raised his eyes and asked, "Why are you so angry so early in the morning?""I made this for Nicole!"Shawn said, "Nicole can't be eating so much. I'll eat some for her."Every time she made breakfast, he would eat most of it!Before Gale could say anything, Shawn said calmly, "In the future… I won't be able to eat your cooking. Besides, the person who will taste your cooking will also be Aurum, not me."After a pause, he added, "He is really lucky."Gale frowned and did not answer him.However, Shawn seemed to be getting more and more energetic as he talked, adjusted his sitting posture, and looked at her calmly. "Galey, there is one thing...that you only do for me, not for others.""No!" she replied directly.Why was he asking

Shawn just looked at her deeply.He had already lost her, but he was happy enough because she only had children for him, not for Aurum.Maybe... she would regret it later.At that time, what would he do?Would he make her kill her child?It did not matter. As long as she said it herself, that was enough."Daddy!" Nicole ran into the dining room. "Good morning.""Good morning.""Good morning, Mrs. Anne too." Nicole greeted and looked around, "Where's Mommy?"Gale was also about to ask, "Where's Winnie? Where is she? I have something to talk to her about."Shawn raised his eyebrows deeply. "What do you want from her?""The night she peeled the walnuts, she promised to return Nicole...to me. I will ask her when she will fulfill her promise!" Gale said."Today.""Today?!" Gale was a little surprised. "So soon?""Yes!"As he said that, Shawn bent down and hugged Nicole, and sat on his lap. "Nicole can go to kindergarten today.""Well, I can see Joshua."Shawn was speechless

The servant served breakfast, bacon and eggs, pancakes, etc.Winnie looked at the bacon, smelled the greasy smell, and suddenly felt her stomach churning!Nauseous!"Take it away, take it away." She quickly waved her hand. "I don't eat bacon! The smell makes me want to vomit!"The servant froze for a moment. "Ms. Nightingale, do you want to vomit?""Yeah, it's too greasy. I don't eat this kind of thing!"The servant still looked at her blankly."What's wrong? Are you stupid? Hurry up and take it away!" she yelled and screamed. Her scolding voice echoed in the dining room.After a few seconds of silence, she suddenly thought of something.Wait, why would she throw up? Could it be…Was this morning sickness?Winnie was instantly ecstatic, snatched the bacon from the servant's hand, took a big bite, and kept chewing!The freshly fried bacon was crispy, but it was a little greasy since she ate it without anything else. Winnie has always been eating very lightly in order t

Winnie was so happy that she followed him without turning back.The figures of the two people quickly disappeared from sight.Nicole blinked. "Daddy and Mommy..."Gale interrupted her. "Nicole, time is running out. I'm going to be late. Have you finished your breakfast?"Nicole nodded."Okay, let's go to kindergarten.""Why isn't Daddy sending me off? Where are Daddy and Mommy going?" Nicole asked while carrying a small schoolbag.In the past, Gale would rack her brains to come up with an excuse to convince Nicole.However, she really did not feel like it.Winnie was pregnant, so what?It was not like she did not know they had sex.Gale bit the tender flesh inside her lips, trying to keep herself calm and rational.'Don't think about it anymore, Gale; these are unimportant. Only Nicole is important.'Only Nicole!A black BMW sped down the driveway.Winnie was so excited that she clutched her seat belt and covered her stomach with both hands.When they arrived at the hos

Since she was pregnant, she hoped that Nicole and Gale would disappear from her sight. The sooner, the better!She could also negotiate with Natalie!Now, it was her, Winnie, against Natalie!Without the title and halo of the Lefting family's future young mistress, what else could Natalie be arrogant about just relying on her status as the daughter of the Yarn family?In front of the mother of the future heir of the Wood family, it was not worth mentioning at all!However, soon, Winnie realized something was wrong."Shawn, this is not the way to Natalie's house, is it? It's the wrong way," she asked."Who said you're going to Natalie's house?""Natalie is right here...""You ask her out." Shawn said.Winnie felt a little strange. "Why...""No reason, just do as I say."Fearing that he would be unhappy, Winnie repeatedly responded, "Okay, I'll call her."After Winnie's persuasion, Natalie reluctantly agreed.The location was a high-end tea house in Sea City.The antique d

Then, Natalie's voice came, "Winnie, you're looking for me again. Why are you so persistent?""It's you who agreed first and then backed out, making it hard for me to face Shawn!""Hehe, isn't it because you are incapable?"Aurum was taken aback and looked up at the speaker.The sound was excellent. Even the subtle moving sounds in the next room could be clearly heard!"The show is about to begin." Shawn poured the tea. His movements were graceful, and his well-articulated hands made the tea set several grades higher. "While drinking tea, we are watching a play."He put the teacup in front of Aurum.Aurum was a smart man.Aurum had begun to understand why he was called here today.Natalie did not know anything about it.She was not afraid at all. "I regretted it. How about it? Who made Nicole's mother, Gale, the woman I hate the most by stealing my man? I want her to die!"She gritted her teeth with every sentence, so vicious.Aurum's expression changed again and again.He

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

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
