Chapter 1141

Author: Wen Tang Tang
The same scheming look, the same devilish instincts!

"Let me take him away. You still have to work, so I don't want to disturb you any longer." Gale walked around Shawn and hugged Joshua.

She walked quickly to the door.

Shawn stood where he was. "Gale, I'll give you three days. In three days, I want to know what new secrets there are between you and Aurum because of this birthmark."

After a pause for a few seconds, he added, "If you don't say anything, I can only look it up."

As for what could be found and how much could be found, that depended on God's will.

With Shawn's ability, the Lefting family history could be turned upside down!

Gale stopped at the door without turning around. "I really want to tell you, but this matter is not only related to me...Shawn, I am also in a mess now. I need to calm down."

"Is three days enough?"

"Maybe."

Leaving an ambiguous answer, Gale walked out of the office.

Joshua lay on her shoulder, silently sticking out his tongue at Shawn, grimac

    Joshua grabbed her hand. "But, haven't you been hiding me? You only brought Nicole back to him, but you didn't bring me because you were afraid that the Wood family would snatch me away… Why do you want me to be exposed now?"Joshua understood the stakes here.He was willing to stay at Lefting's house and call Shawn his uncle because he understood Gale's concerns.He did not want her to have any of her children left.Therefore, from beginning to end, no matter what happened, Joshua would always stand by Gale's side, telling her with actions and words that he was really there.He was her son. For the rest of his life, he would never leave, and he would always love her!The love of parents was great, but we could not forget that children's love for their parents was also strong, sincere, and pure!Family affection was also mutual!Gale stared into his eyes. "I also made this decision after careful consideration. I don't want you to live in Aurum's house and stay in Sea City with

    Joshua hurriedly replied, "Really, Grandpa, you will work hard to take care of me from now on!""It's okay. It's not hard. I'm happy to take care of our family, Joshua.""Grandpa, I want to eat watermelon.""I'll cut it for you!"Peter was delighted, his smiles increased, and he was busy.Joshua stood by and helped. "Grandpa, be careful, don't hurt your hands."What a harmonious and warm scene.Gale really did not want Joshua to live in Aurum's house anymore.Firstly, the Lefting family was not safe now.Who knew if Natalie would suddenly go crazy, rush to Aurum's house, and do something harmful to Joshua?Secondly, Joshua was often not around. She could not be with him all the time, did not know what he ate and did, and was always uneasy.Joshua went to poison Natalie. Every time she thought about it, Gale felt a bit of fear every time!Joshua could not be allowed to go on like this. He was too courageous!"Gale, you eat too. You also came to rest with me today. It's rare

    "Dad, there is no need to hide anything now. I have the right to know, and I also have the ability to judge right from wrong. I want to know the truth, and I want to know even more who I am," Gale said.Peter's eyes gradually became moist."Gale, it's not that I'm hiding it from you on purpose. It's that all along... your mother and I hope to give you a good living environment so that you can be carefree and happy. It's a pity, the world is impermanent, and the death of Alex has directly brought our entire family into near-destruction.""We are sorry for you. We failed to protect you and let you suffer so much with us. Whenever I think about it, I blame myself very much and feel ashamed of you.""I thought your mother and I adopted you to change your fate and allow you to live a normal childhood life. Unexpectedly, it dragged you into hell."The phrase 'adopted you' clearly stated the truth.Gale was really adopted, not Peter and Wendy's biological daughter!She stared blankly a

    Aurum was a top-quality man, a good-looking talent, and he and Jennie were childhood sweethearts.What about the Warm family?Gale and Sam were also childhood sweethearts.Although Sam loved Gale very much, it was a pity that the Carson family always felt that the Warm family was inferior, and they had a sense of superiority in their hearts, so they did not think highly of Gale.As soon as something happened to the Warm family, the Carson family immediately turned their backs on them and refused to provide any help. They sent Sam abroad and drew a clear line with the Warm family overnight for fear of being infected with misfortune and hurting their family!After the Warm family suffered from this unreasonable disaster, Gale's life underwent earth-shaking changes!Instant hell!Just thinking about it made Peter feel sad and even more guilty."I thought that your mother and I saved you and gave you a new life, but I didn't expect that it would hurt you… If we hadn't adopted you,

    At that time, Gale thought it was because Mary reminded her of Wendy.She did not expect...Mary was her biological mother.Somewhere, there was a little fate."When we met, you didn't know that they were your parents, and they didn't know that you were their daughter. Naturally, there was no intersection. When you meet again, the feeling will be different," Peter replied.Gale lowered her eyes. "I'm really... really the daughter of the Yarn family?"She was still a little dazed, with a feeling of disbelief.After all, there was still no substantive evidence to prove that she was the missing daughter of the Yarn family.Only a heart-shaped birthmark on his body."Go for a paternity test, and you will understand everything. Gale, don't be afraid, and don't run away. Just treat it as a thing in life," Peter said.Gale lowered her eyes.If she was really Jennie, then Natalie had occupied her life for more than twenty years.She was supposed to have a noble status and live a ca

    This grandson could survive anywhere.Joshua carried the live shrimp into the yard of the villa and said with a crisp voice, "Wow, this shrimp is big and fat, and it's alive and kicking. Mommy will definitely like it!""Aren't you afraid of grabbing it with bare hands?""It's not like a crayfish has pincers and can pinch people. Besides, the crayfish's pincers are tied up, so it can't hurt people!"Peter smiled very brightly.The grandpa and grandson walked into the living room with a load of dishes.However...On the sofa in the living room, Shawn was sitting there, wearing a gray shirt with indifferent eyes.Peter's smile suddenly froze on his face."Old fart? Why are you here?" Joshua said. As far as Joshua was concerned...It made Shawn feel uncomfortable!Shawn looked up at him. "I should ask you that. Joshua, why are you here?"Peter was secretly startled and did not know how to respond. Joshua had already said, "Why can't I be here? The Big Beauty invited me to din

    Joshua started to yell at him again, "Why are you looking for Big Beauty? You just bullied her in the office today. Are you going to bully her at home? I'll be the first to say no!"Shawn walked to the second floor without even looking at Joshua."Old fart!"Peter was terrified. It was the first time he saw Joshua talking to Shawn like this.Although it was said that they were father and son... but Shawn had no idea that that was his son.If Shawn was really going to be angered, no one could protect Joshua unless his identity was revealed!After so many years, even Peter was still a little subconsciously afraid when he saw Shawn, even though Shawn was extremely polite and respectful to him."Joshua, you still can't talk to Shawn like this in the future. That's your father," Peter reminded in a low voice."I know.""No one dares to yell in front of him like you."Joshua replied, "Then I will be the first one!"This courage...Ironically it came from Shawn!Peter froze for a m

    Gale was startled. "Did you attack the Yarn family?""Of course. I said I would."Shawn had always kept his word, and he would do what he said!Was it just to frighten others when he said such cruel words?Of course, the Yarn family must pay a heavy price, and Natalie must be made aware of potential regret and fear so that Nicole can regain her sobriety.Gale shook her head repeatedly. "No, Shawn, you can't touch the Yarn family."The corners of Shawn's deep lips pursed, and at the same time, the fingers that landed on her shoulders also fell forcefully, holding her shoulders."Can't? Gale, that's not what you said when you were at their house," he repeated.She was obviously on his side at that time, which was beyond his expectation!She even rejected Aurum's pleading!Shawn still remembered the mood at that moment clearly, and he could recollect it again.How long has it been? Gale suddenly changed her mind."Aurum came to you today not only to see the birthmark on your bo

    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
