"Wait." The bodyguard stopped the servant, "Mr. Wood only agreed to Mr. Yarn going in, as for him… He has to stay here."Matthew laughed along with him, "This is my servant. She's just bringing food for Natalie to nourish her body. Besides, she won't even be there for ten minutes and will come out soon.""No.""Let it slide this once, please?"Matthew took out a cheque while talking, and quietly stuffed it into the bodyguard's hand.Turns out, the bodyguard became even more stern, "You are only allowed to go in alone, and you are not allowed to bring anything or anyone else. Ten minutes, no more than that. Start the timer now!"Matthew's smile slowly faded, and a look of annoyance flashed in his eyes.He waved his hand to let the servant leave. He felt distraught as he stood at the door of the ward. He was lingering and was still unwilling to just walk in casually.Just as he was racking his brains to think about how to bring a person in, a nurse came over with a tray."It's t

Natalie was not an entirely bad person either.She knew how big a mistake she had made and how much disaster she had brought to the Yarn family. She thought that when her father saw her, he would scold her or beg her to hand over the cure method.Unexpectedly, her father was more concerned for her well-being instead!During this period of time, Natalie suffered from the torment of poisonous hair every day, as well as the mental fear of getting stabbed in the back.She doesn't care if she lives or dies anymore.No matter how hard the punishments were, no matter how harsh the venomous words were, Natalie didn't care, she could bear it with gritted teeth.Unexpectedly... Matthew's warmth and paternal love touched her heart!"Silly girl, you are my daughter, I don't care about what you do, who else can I care about!" Matthew replied, "Stop talking, let the nurse change your gauze! Time is running out!"He only has ten minutes!He could not afford to waste time!Natalie gritted he

"Dad, what if Shawn finds out I'm missing! What if he takes his anger out on the Yarn family!""Didn't you just say that Aurum is here!"Natalie shook her head, "Aurum can protect you and Mom, but he can't protect me! Things will get worse if I try to escape now!""Don't worry!" Matthew was full of confidence, "The Yarn family will be fine!"The reason why he dared to do this was because of Gale!Gale is now his biological daughter. There was no way that Shawn would attack Gale's family and kill his father-in-law and mother-in-law, right?Impossible!Now that Gale's turned into his trump card, Matthew is now not afraid of anything!The main point is to save Natalie first!"There's no need to think about it." Matthew said, "I'm here for you, I'll take care of the rest! As for the poison on your body... I will also find a way to save you! Bear with it for now and follow me! I'll find the antidote for you!"Natalie gritted her teeth.Although she has already accepted her death,

In Peter's villa."Mommy, do you want some milk?"Would you like an apple, Mommy?"Let's watch some television together."Should we go for a walk? It's cool outside."Gale sat cross-legged on the sofa, and Joshua ran over every now and then, pestering her. That was his way to show he cared about her.However, every time, the answer Joshua got was a no.In the end, Joshua followed her example and sat cross-legged beside her."Mommy, you are in a bad mood." Joshua said, "You can complain to me, I can be your secret keeper.""I'm fine.""Let's talk about it, I won't tell anyone. I promise? Unless…" He tilted his head, "If it's girl talk, I don't want to know!"Gale smiled and patted his head.She was not in a bad mood, she was just a little tired out.After uncovering her life experience, she realized that the many ridiculous things that happened before... were starting to make sense.For example, the first time Aurum saw her, he fell in love with her right away.For exampl

Joshua still had a look of disbelief, "No, we should do a paternity test, or I won't feel at ease!"He dragged Gale out.Gale didn't know how to react, "I won't go."Two paternity tests in a day?"Joshua, I can assure you that you are my own. You are the elder brother. You were born a few minutes earlier than Nicole. You really don't need to do a paternity test." Gale said."No, this needs to be done!"Joshua was being very serious.He insisted on dragging Gale, but Gale didn't want to go.The mother and son started a tug of war.At this moment, Shawn's voice came over, "What's going on?"Gale's heart skipped a beat.Joshua was also stunned.When did he come? How much of the conversation did he hear?!Gale looked up at Shawn. He changed into a gray casual shirt and black trousers, and he looked right at home."Uh..." Gale couldn't turn her head, and didn't know how to answer.On the contrary, Joshua was quite clever, and immediately said, "Whatever you heard, they're all

He was so direct that Gale was taken aback, not knowing how to respond.Before she could react, Shawn had already held her hand. "Let's go."She subconsciously followed him.After walking a few steps, she wanted to break free again.However, Shawn held it even tighter. "Gale...we are still married."Although her heart no longer belonged to him, her person still belonged to him."I know you want a divorce. I will find a way to stop Grandpa. But right now, with Nicole's matter… no." Shawn did not turn his head, looked at the road ahead, and walked steadily. After a few seconds of silence, he said in a low voice, "Please be Mrs. Wood for a while longer."Hearing these words, Gale quickly raised her head and looked at his silhouette.When Shawn said this, his tone was flat and normal.However, Gale could hear a bit of regret.He is Shawn...'When have you ever been so humble, such a retreat?'Only in front of her."As Mrs. Wood, how can she be wronged?

The corner of Joshua's mouth curled down, almost crying.However, what could be done?It was the pancake he said he wanted to eat, and he had to finish it no matter what!It was all his own doing!Moreover, Shawn really drove for an hour to buy him pancakes!He was simply flattered!Gale did not know that this scene was so warm in the eyes of outsiders.In front of the steaming stall, she and Shawn stood side by side, with Joshua next to them, eating pancakes by mouthfuls. The corners of his mouth were covered with butter, and the boss was busy closing the stall.Until a rapid ringtone of the mobile phone rang.Shawn answered the phone. "Hello?"The bodyguard's voice was very flustered. "Bad news, Mr. Wood! Natalie...she ran away!"In the quiet night, Gale, next to him, could hear the voice from the receiver clearly!They looked at each other, and their expressions immediately changed!What happened?How was it possible?Natalie was poisoned, took the sex potion again, a

"Mr. Wood, she is a nurse. When Mr. Yarn went in to see Natalie, she happened to change her dressing. Originally, I asked Mr. Yarn to enter first because you only gave him ten minutes. After he comes out, the nurse will go in and change the dressing," the captain explained."But Mr. Yarn said it was alright, and they went in together. Before I could say anything, he took the nurse in and changed the dressing together. Then, ten minutes later, the nurse came out together with Mr. Yarn.""I took a look inside and found someone on the hospital bed. I thought the person lying there was Natalie, so I didn't go in to check..."Shawn fully understood what was going on.He looked at the nurse.The nurse was crying. "I don't know anything, Mr. Wood. I'm the victim! I just want to change the dressing. Just after changing the dressing, my neck suddenly hurt, and then I lost consciousness. When I woke up, I found myself in the ward. I knocked on the door and asked the bodyguards to let me out

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
