"What about after? Will he let me go? No! He will only torture me unscrupulously and intensify the pain! I know what kind of person Shawn is and what methods he uses!" Natalie asked.There were too many rumors about Shawn's cruelty in Sea City.Every single rumor made her hair stand!"I will protect you from him. This is my promise to you. Natalie, undo what you have done," Aurum said."Can you save me from Shawn? Are you sure?"Natalie was not stupid.Why would Shawn listen to Aurum?"I'm not sure. But if I ask Gale to ask Shawn to intercede, then the success rate will be very high," Aurum replied truthfully.Gale owes Aurum a favor.Shawn would not reject Gale.Natalie smiled. "But Nicole is also Gale's daughter...she also hates me.""You really don't have to worry about these things. As long as you stop, and let Nicole go, your future will be bright!"Natalie raised her hand and wiped the wound on her forehead.She knew how embarrassed she was now, and Aurum could see

"Why don't you go directly to Natalie?""Because she hid very well at the beginning, I didn't even know she was the one behind it. All I can do is start with Winnie and investigate bit by bit. After using Winnie, I planned to attack."After a pause, Shawn added, "Besides, Nicole only recognizes her. Nicole will be sad if she doesn't see her so-called mummy for a long time."His method was the only comprehensive strategy under the circumstances at that time.As long as there was something better, Shawn would not choose to get close to Winnie!Gale's fingers kept twisting.There was one more thing she really wanted to ask.However, she could not bring herself to ask it.She was afraid to hear the answer!Just when Gale was about to twist her fingers into a knot, Shawn's hand reached out and covered the back of her hand."Galey, I know the one thing you care about most, and you can't ask it."He stroked her skin with his fingertips. "I have never slept with Winnie."Gale sudde

"I'm sorry. I will punish Winnie twice for what she has done to you. You are bullied, and I will help you out. It was unfair for you to dress up in old makeup," Shawn said.However, Gale shook his head."The reason for my anger is not at all what you said."Shawn was taken aback deeply.What was it then?What else had he done wrong?Seeing his confused face, Gale raised her hand and poked his heart."It's because you kept it from me! You can tell me in advance when you do these things! I can cooperate with you in your plans and strategies! Shawn, I have the right to know!" Gale questioned."Instead, you silently take care of everything without saying a word, act alone, bear everything alone...Why can't you tell me?""Do I not deserve to know?"Shawn shook his head. "No, Galey...""That's what you think. I don't have the ability, and I will only drag you down?""No, I..."Gale interrupted him, "Shawn, Nicole is our daughter, and we all have the responsibility to protect her

The servants filed out immediately for fear of being scolded if they walked too slowly!While leading the servant to leave quickly, the housekeeper closed the door thoughtfully with a smile on his face.Shawn did not speak out until there was no one left. "Galey, don't cry. There are thousands of mistakes, and it's all my fault, okay?""You... You say that, but it makes me even more unreasonable!""It was really my mistake. I sincerely admit my mistake," Shawn said."Then where did you go wrong?""It's my fault that I didn't tell you."He answered correctly!Gale did not know what to say, so she sniffed and shrugged her shoulders from crying.Why did she cry?She did not want to show her vulnerability, especially in front of Shawn.It was just that Gale had been suppressed for too long these days.She thought she was wronged and suffered a lot, but she did not expect that Shawn was the one who suffered the most.Shawn's fingers gently wiped away a tear."Hey…"He was mos

She pushed him away, full of irritability and depression.Shawn was so happy, but she was upset!Did he know how to keep it to himself?He should be thick-skinned and good at playing tricks.How had Shawn become a gentleman!However, Gale could not say what was on her mind!She could not ask Shawnt to come and coax her. The more she thought about it, the more angry she became. Gale raised her foot and stepped heavily on Shawn's leather shoes, leaving an obvious shoe print.Then she turned around and walked away."Galey, where are you going?" "To the company!"Gale was so angry that she did not look back.She got on the bus.It was noon, there was no one on the bus. The sun was dazzling, and it was a bit humid.Inadvertently, when Gale turned around, she saw Shawn's flamboyant Ferrari following behind.He drove very slowly and kept a distance of about fifty meters.When the bus stopped, he stopped.When the bus drove, he drove.Just like that, he followed her all the

She could ignore Shawn, but…Joe could not.Joe hurried out of the office to greet him, "Mr. Wood, please come in.""You welcomed me?""Of course, you are welcome. Mr. Wood is welcome to drop by at any time! Isn't that right!" Joe rolled his eyes and looked at Gale.All of a sudden, all eyes were on Gale.Under the eyes of everyone, Gale squeezed out a word between her teeth. "Yes!"Shawn looked at her deeply and started to walk toward her, but Joe reminded him, "Mr. Wood, this way, please."He had to change direction.Sitting in the office, Shawn picked up the tea, blew on it, but put it down again."Why did you stop me just now? You know I want to find her," he asked."She almost wrote the word 'rejection' on her face, and you still want to go there to be embarrassed?"Shawn raised his foot and kicked at him. "Shut up if you have nothing good to say."Joe was not angry but smiled.Some time ago, Shawn never came to the jewelry department to have a look and sent Fiona ov

"This matter is complicated... Tricky, tricky. Then what are you going to do next? Now Gale should know that when you are so good to Winnie, you are all acting, right?" Joe shook his head repeatedly."Yes.""That's fine. Admit your mistake, apologize, coax her, and buy a bouquet of flowers or something. You have to be thick-skinned. If it really doesn't work, kneel down on the remote control, and the matter will be resolved." Joe breathed a sigh of relief.Shawn's expression darkened. "Tomorrow, I will go to the Civil Affairs Bureau with her.""Oh, let's go." Joe waved his hand indifferently.After two seconds, Joe stood up abruptly. "Wait, where are you going? Did I hear wrong?""Civil Affairs Bureau," Shawn repeated."You, you… don't simply go to that place if you have nothing to do...what are you doing there!""We are getting divorced."He thought he had won for sure, and he was just waiting to show off in front of Summer so that she would be ready to be his girlfriend for

Shawn closed his eyes and looked indifferent because he had already accepted this fact.It was just that it was hard to digest, and every time he thought about it, it hurt so much.The only woman he loved in his life had fallen for another man?What was wrong with him?"You probably haven't given up yet… Otherwise, you wouldn't have come to the jewelry department. Gale is outside. Why don't I call her in so you can talk?" Joe asked."No need.""Then why are you here?""To look at her. I'm afraid she might be emotionally unstable," Shawn said.After all, so many things were revealed one by one in front of her, she could not accept it for a while, and she really needed to calm down."I think she is quite stable, chatting and laughing with Peach, but you are unstable. There are still more than ten hours until tomorrow. Why don't you work harder?"Shawn got up and walked out without saying a word.So what?So what if he tried harder to recover?How could he keep a person who h

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
