Skeletons Of The Marital Closet Chapter 1154
Mary had always made a wish so innocently that her daughter, in a certain corner of the world, would live as well as Natalie.It did not matter if she was not as good as Natalie. Even a little worse, she would feel at ease if she was safe and healthy.How dare Mary imagine what a four-year-old girl would experience and encounter after she disappeared!Perhaps trafficked to remote mountainous areas.Maybe sent to do hard work in the coal mines.Maybe...How dare she imagine!Mary hurt every time she thought about it, and it hurt her heart. She had migraines, which cannot be cured because of it.Every time she had a headache, she could do nothing but lie on the bed, feeling nauseous and dizzy, short of breath."Mrs. Wood, you are also a mother. I dare not expect you to empathize with me, but please understand me. Even if Natalie is an adopted daughter, I will protect her till the end." Mary wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.Gale looked away and looked elsewhere.Se

If everything goes well, logically speaking, Aurum and Natalie should also be in such a loving relationship.Mary just watched without making a sound.She knew that at this moment, Mr. Wood would not listen to her, and she would only irritate him if she spoke out to show her presence.At this moment, Mary became even more determined to intercede with Mrs. Wood!Natalie still has hope!Gale took a deep breath. "I'm not crying for the Yarn family, Shawn. I want to cry for myself."Cry for her tragic experience.Cry about her dramatic life.There were too many things to cry about, but Gale's eyes were dry, and she could not shed a single tear.She blinked and looked at Mary."For so many years, have you ever thought...to find your own daughter?""I want to find her. When she just disappeared, my sky fell down. But it's been so many years, where should I start?" Mary replied.A normal woman would change so much when they grew up, and even Mary herself did not know what her daug

He had touched it and even kissed it, but at this moment, when he saw it again, he had a different feeling.This was not just a birthmark. It was evidence of Gale's life experience!Mary stared fixedly. Her face was full of surprise, and her whole body was motionless.She could not believe what she saw. A huge surprise and shock enveloped her!"This, this… Mrs. Wood, you...why...why do you have this birthmark?" Mary's lips trembled."I don't know. This birthmark has been with me since I was little, until now."In the past, Gale never thought birthmarks were strange.Something you carry with you when you are born.Peter and Wendy did not emphasize it deliberately, and Gale did not take it to heart.However, Wendy once said, "This is the mark that God kissed you and left behind."It was because of that that Gale did not care about her birthmark even more and even felt that this was what made her different.She was a child blessed by God.Until now...It was only later that G

Before he acted, he was mentally prepared that Gale would loathe him.Gale replied, "You don't blame me, but I blame myself... I blame myself why I didn't believe in you more firmly once."He was silent again.Shawn's deep breath sprayed on her neck, and her loose hair fluttered slightly.In the huge living room, there was silence.Mary fell to the ground, her eyes glazed over, unable to accept the facts in front of her for a while.At this time, a burst of hurried footsteps came from outside.Then, he was stopped at the door."Let me in. Is Mary inside?" Aurum's voice sounded very anxious."Without Mr. Wood's permission, no one is allowed to enter."Mary stood up unsteadily. "Aurum...I want to see Aurum..."Her steps were unsteady, and her legs became weak before she took a few steps and she fell to the ground again.The typically noble and elegant Mary was in such a mess."Mary!" Seeing this, Gale immediately ran forward, trying to help her up.However, Mary moved one s

She raised the corner of her lips bitterly. "Who the hell am I?"Once upon a time, she was Gale, the only daughter of the Warm family.Later, she became Mrs. Wood, Shawn's wife.Now, she turned out to be... the daughter of the Yarn family.So many identities, and so many stories."You are Jennie, my daughter...You should be called Jennie Yarn," Mary said, crying."So, I'm Jennie...I'm not Gale."Mary looked at her with teary eyes.Mary had heard of some of those rich wives' afternoon teas and parties before.At that time, she just took it as gossip and listened to it casually when she had nothing to do, she did not care, and she did not need to take it to heart.Thinking about it, Mary's heart ached.Gale was the young mistress of the Wood family, the largest wealthy family in Sea City, but her life experience was so tragic!Because of Alex Wood's death, Peter went to jail, Wendy became a vegetable, and Gale was thrown into a mental hospital by Shawn to atone for his sins.

She turned around slowly and met his eyes. "Do you think I'm really the missing daughter of the Yarn family?""Have you asked your father-in-law? How did he answer?" Shawn asked."Dad said, I'm not his biological daughter, he and my mother adopted me back then."Shawn pursed his lips slightly.It had developed to this point, and Gale's true identity was quite clear.It was just that she could not accept it psychologically."Galey, no matter whose daughter you are, you always have two identities, which follow you firmly, and no one can take them away." Shawn looked deep into her eyes."Two identities?""One is my wife. One is Nicole's mother."Gale chuckled lightly. "But these two identities were not obtained voluntarily by me at the beginning. Shawn, you married me by force. You held my hand and signed at the marriage window, and Nicole...""In the beginning, I wanted to abort them. I didn't want to conceive your child again, and I didn't want to have children for you because

Ever since she was discharged from the hospital after being cured of leukemia, Mommy did not care much about her and was a bit aggressive toward her. She was all focused on her father, and she did not mention the existence of her brother at all.Mommy also said she was going to have another baby.Moreover, Nicole had not seen Mommy for many days."Mrs. Anne, do you know when Mommy will come back?" Nicole held her hand.Before Gale could reply, Nicole hurriedly said again, "Don't ask Daddy, just tell me quietly.""Why can't I ask Daddy?" Gale was puzzled.Was Nicole afraid of Shawn?Impossible.If Shawn was a lion on the outside, then he was a docile sheep in front of Nicole without any aggressiveness.Nicole blinked. "Because when I ask, Daddy will definitely say, do I like Mommy better...""Actually, Mrs. Anne, my love for Daddy and Mommy is always the same. I love Mommy, and I love Daddy too. They are the most important people in my life, and I can't tell the number one fro

Looking back on her and Shawn's road to love and marriage, every step was so difficult and bitter.Until now, this road seemed to have no end, it was winding, and she could not see where the end was.She only saw a cloud of fog, shrouded, entwined, and lingering for a long time!Gale smiled and patted her head. "Never suffer from love."This was her greatest wish for her daughter.As long as she chooses the right lover, she can live a very relaxed, happy, and comfortable life.A good lover can relieve most of the pain in life.She only hoped that Nicole's relationship could go smoothly, and when she met her true destiny, they would fall in love with each other and have a good relationship for a hundred years until the end of their life.She did not want to be rich and famous, but she only wanted to have someone with one heart and one mind and never leave each other.After putting Nicole to sleep, Gale looked at her peaceful sleeping face and sighed softly.As parents, they al

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
