Gale reached out to open the box. "It turned out to be desserts. It's all good. Why did he suddenly give out these things? Our department signed another big order?"Peach shrugged. "I don't know. Maybe Mr. Wood is happy! Or maybe..."She winked and smiled at Gale.Gale was confused.Peach asked, "Gale, what did you do to make Mr. Wood so happy? Men only do things like these for women.""I need to cheer him up? Are you kidding me!"Peach stuck out her tongue and returned to her workstation.Gale looked at the cheesecake in front of her.It looked tasty.However, it reminded her of one thing.That time when she, Summer, and Peach bought afternoon tea for colleagues in the jewelry department out of their own pockets, they met Shawn at the company gate.Immediately afterward, Shawn sent Fiona to scold her...Gale's memory of this incident was still fresh!On that day, Shawn's fever subsided, and he began to become abnormal, and the beginning of partiality toward Winnie!At th

It was too late.Shawn heard it all.'Keep your mouth shut ...why can't you stop?'"Dog?" Shawn's voice slowly sounded from behind."That's right. Isn't Shawn a real dog man!" After saying that, Summer glanced back. "Right, do you feel the same way...er…"Only then had Summer seen clearly the person standing behind her who spoke just now...It was Shawn!It was the proverbial dog!Her mouth was much faster than her brain!Now, the words she spoke were like spilled milk.She could not take it back!Shawn raised his eyebrows deeply. "Do you think, do I think so?"Summer felt guilty.She wanted to slap herself.It seemed a little embarrassing to be caught bad mouthing someone!Summer quickly smiled. "Mr. Wood, what a coincidence. Why are you here?"How could someone like Shawn be at the cafeteria?He always ordered meals from his special secretary!"Yes, it's a coincidence. Otherwise, I wouldn't have heard such wonderful remarks," Shawn said.Summer shrank her neck.Ev

"Hehehehe..."Summer could only laugh dryly and silently begged that Shawn let her go quickly!However, at this time…Joe appeared."Oh, it's so lively. Shawn, you actually appeared in the cafeteria," Joe said.Before Shawn could answer, he saw Gale. "It turns out that the proprietress is here, so, of course, the boss will be here. It makes sense!"Immediately afterward, Joe discovered Summer again."Hey, why do you look timid, shrinking your neck and lowering your head, as if you are pleading guilty for making a mistake? What about your fearless spirit?" Joe said.Summer glared at him.Beep, no one would treat him as if he was mute if he did not speak!"Why are you glaring at me? Did I say something wrong? Did I miss something?" Joe asked. Summer and Gale lowered their heads at the same time and looked away.Shawn said deeply, "You really missed it.""Really? Tell me about it!" Joe's eyes lit up.He liked to listen to gossip the most!He wanted to listen to the gossip that

"The food standard in the company's cafeteria is very good, perfect even! As an employee, I give it 101 points! One point more than 100!"Shawn's face was gloomy and unattractive.However, he did not bother with Summer anymore.Soon, Joe and Summer disappeared into the cafeteria without a trace.At the elevator entrance, Summer let go of her hand.Summer looked at him. "Joe! Are you trying to kill me?"Joe had an indifferent expression on his face. "I didn't do anything. You were the one who said bad things about Shawn behind his back, and he caught you, and you still blame me?""Yes, that's right, I am the one who is talking nonsense, but I don't need you to fan the flames again!""Which way did I fan the flames? What kind of fire did I start?"Summer glared at him again."I'm quite surprised. You scolded Shawn face to face, so you didn't show any fear. How did you become so cowardly today?" Joe said.This was not in line with her style."It's none of your business. You do

"Okay, I won't cheat. You should start to think about how to be a qualified girlfriend when I win!" he said."I...""I like gentle, well-behaved, and obedient ones. It's best to be a sweet girl."The elevator door opened with a ding. Joe walked in and waved at her very chicly. "Goodbye."Summer was so angry that she turned her head and left.She took the stairs!She did not want to share an elevator with Joe!She would get angry when she saw him!Why did he have such an irritating personality with an obviously handsome face? In the company cafeteria, Shawn and Gale sat facing each other.No one dared to approach in a ten-meter radius.Who dared to disturb the boss and the boss's wife for lunch?Gale kept lowering her head and picking at the rice grains, not looking at Shawn.This is a public place, and there are countless pairs of eyes looking at her. It was not easy for her to talk to Shawn as she pleased!If it were at home or in the office, Gale would have given him a

Why was Gale here?If she had known, she would not have brought Mr. Carson to the cafeteria!It was over. She seemed to have gotten into trouble...Mr. Carson was Gale's ex-fiance, and everyone in the Wood Group knew about it!Well, now, under Peach's arrangement, Gale and Mr. Carson met in front of Mr. Wood!"Sam...It's you; I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect to meet you again here." Gale stood up slowly and smiled warmly.Shawn slowly narrowed his eyes."Sam?"Sam came over and greeted him naturally, "Mr. Wood, hello.""It's a surprise to see Mr. Carson here. This is where the employees come." Shawn raised his eyebrows.Sam replied, "Mr. Wood is also here?""This is my company.""I'm your company's partner, and I just finished talking about the cooperation. So, Peach invited me over to lunch here in the canteen. She was very enthusiastic and highly praised the cuisine here, so I stopped by." Sam smiled slightly.Shawn looked at Peach."So you brought Mr

"You don't need to teach me."Sam shrugged. "Then I'm talking too much."Now, he was far away from Gale's life.A miss was a miss, and it was impossible to continue the leading edge.Sam knew it was the perfect ending for him, and Gale was safe now.Once he thought she was dead, but unexpectedly, she was still alive and well.That was enough.He looked at her from a distance, occasionally inquiring about her recent situation, and he was satisfied.Sam will not and dare not expect extravagantly.Gale and Peach soon turned back."Mr. Carson, have a taste." Peach put the plate in front of him. "Thanks.""You're welcome." Peach handed over the cutlery to him again.Sam took it, suddenly thought of something, and looked at her sideways. "You have been working with me. It seems that you haven't eaten yet, have you?""Ah... yes."How could Peach dare to say that she was hungry at this time?She was so scared!Just as Sam was about to say something, Shawn had already spoken f

No one could replace Gale.Speaking of which, Mr. Carson was also thirty years old, but he had no scandals and no girlfriend, and daughters from famous families wanted to marry him, but he declined all of them.This was because he still had Gale in his heart."It tastes good. The food is really good. It seems that our company's food will also have to improve," Sam said.Hearing his praise, Peach said happily, "Yes, Mr. Carson, the taste is not bad! Originally, according to your status, it would be inappropriate to bring you to the cafeteria, but it is really delicious! So, I want to bring you to have a taste!""I am very satisfied."Peach laughed until her eyes almost turned into stars.In the corner, Shawn looked deeply at Gale. "Do you see it now?""Hmm, yes."Peach actually liked Sam!God!If Shawn had not mentioned something, she would not have found out so quickly!So obvious!No wonder Shawn saw it at a glance!Gale felt that she was too blind not to notice but want

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
