Gale was really a natural vixen!

"Get up!" Shawn tugged at his tie and spoke sharply.

Hearing his voice, Gale immediately opened her eyes and sat up. "You are back..."

He just looked at her with deep eyes and kept quiet.

"What's wrong?" She looked left and right and explained, "I deliberately slept in the corner and didn't block the door!"

"Have you had the soup yet?"

Gale was stunned for a moment, "Huh?"

"The soup!"

She shook her head and answered, "No. Do I have to drink it?"

Shawn narrowed her eyes and said, "What do you think?"

Gale got up and answered, "I'll go now."

She had no idea what was wrong with him. He kept insisting on her drinking Paula's soup.

'What time is it... Can I go to sleep after finishing the soup?'

In the kitchen, Gale held a spoon and looked at the bowl of seafood soup in front of her.

Shawn stood beside her, supervising her.

She closed her eyes and stuffed it into her mouth, only to smell the fishy smell, making it hard to swallow.

Gale could not take another bite after finishing half of it. "Is this enough?"

"What do you think?"

"I..." Her stomach was churning before she could finish her sentence.

Gale covered her mouth and ran to the bathroom quickly.

She vomited so badly that she threw up all the food she had just eaten.

Hearing the sound coming from the bathroom, Shawn frowned in disgust.

This soup must be drunk to deceive Paula.

The housekeeper came over and said, "Mr. Wood, there is a package for you today, sent from abroad."

"Give it to me."

Shawn opened it and found that it was the medicine that William sent him, which happened to be a course of treatment.

He glanced at the bowl of soup again, smiled sarcastically, and swallowed the pill expressionlessly.

He had found Susan. He just had to cure his illness and get the divorce three months later...Everything was in Shawn's control.

Gale came out of the bathroom and clutched her stomach, still nauseous.

What happened to her? Even if the seafood soup had been very fishy, ​​she would not have vomited so badly.

The housekeeper suggested, "Mr. Wood, do you want to ask the family doctor to take a look at your wife?"

"She won't die!"

Gale looked at the housekeeper gratefully and shook her head gently, not to anger Shawn for her.

That night, Gale leaned against the wall and hugged her knees, and only fell asleep in a daze when it was almost dawn.

Downstairs, the kitchen was busy, and the servants were cleaning.

Susan came to Temperley Hall early. She was so excited that she could not sleep a wink. She put on layers of her best makeup to meet Shawn.

"Where's Mr. Wood?" Susan walked into the living room and asked loudly, "Why is no one welcoming me? Do you wish to keep your job?"

The housekeeper looked at her and asked, "You are..."

"You don't even know me. Are you really blind? I'm the future Mrs. Wood!"

The housekeeper replied, "Temperley Hall already has a mistress. Are you going to be another one?"

Susan's eyes widened. "What? Impossible! Mr. Wood himself said he wanted to marry me! If you don't believe me, go ask him!"

"Mr. Wood is still sleeping."

Susan immediately rushed upstairs.

She had to seize the opportunity, and she would eradicate whoever got in her way!

The housekeeper hurriedly chased after her, yelling, "Strangers are not allowed to go to the second floor!"

Susan did not care. She stormed toward the master bedroom aggressively.

Gale was woken up by the footsteps. When she opened his eyes, she saw Susan's face before her.

"It's you?" Susan looked at her. "I just thought you looked familiar."

"Susan?" Gale also looked strange.

She has met Susan several times in the mental hospital. The dean's daughter was not well educated and liked fashion and beauty. She was the kind of person who likes to act rich but actually isn't.

At the very least, Jenny Timothy is still the daughter of a wealthy family.

Susan asked, "Why do you sleep on the ground? I see. Mr. Wood asked you to watch the door, right? You suffered a lot when you were in the mental hospital"

The housekeeper chased after him and explained, "This is our mistress."

"What!? Y…you..." Susan was shocked.

Gale actually married President Wood?!

Dad told her that the woman Shawn slept with was Gale, but since Mr. Wood found Susan, it showed that he did not know that the person that night was Gale! So he put one and one together and thought they could continue to pretend and keep up the lie!

However, Gale had become Mrs. Wood! How could that be?

"Are you okay?" Gale said softly, "Shawn was sleeping inside. He would be angry if we disturbed his sleep, and we would go hungry for the day."

Susan gritted her teeth and calmed down.

No matter what, she will stubbornly pretend to be the woman that night.

Gale better not try to take her place!

Susan replied, "I'm looking for Shawn. I didn't think I would run into his watchdog. Get out of the way, I want to go in."

Gale raised his eyebrows and answered, "Well, at least I am watching my own house. If you want to use that analogy, you've just broken into a private home early in the morning and barked loudly. That just makes you at most a wild dog that hasn't been vaccinated."

"You dare scold me?"

"I didn't say you must be one, but I can't help it if you have to admit that you are."

Susan had a secret. "Don't get ahead of yourself just because you are Mrs. Wood! The person Mr. Wood wants to marry now is me!"

As she spoke, Susan pulled Gale's quilt, threw it aside, raised her hand, and slapped her in the face.

Gale tilted her head and dodged.

Seeing that she missed, Susan was not satisfied and slapped her in the face again, as if she would not stop until she was hit!

Gale held her wrist quickly and ruthlessly, and the other hand quickly fanned back.

She was not easy to bully!

However, at this moment, someone said in a stern voice, "Gale, try if you dare."

Gale was shocked, and all her movements stopped abruptly.

Her palm was only one centimeter away from Susan's cheek!

Shawn had no need to stop her. One sentence was enough to threaten her to stop.

"Mr. Wood!" When Susan saw him, she acted aggrievedly and coquettishly,

"Fortunately, you are here...otherwise, I would definitely be slapped in the face!"

Shawn frowned slightly. "Why are you here?"

"I miss you so much that I can't sleep. Who knew this woman wouldn't let me in and called me a dog..."

No rest for the wicked.

Gale said nothing. She thought Shawn would not believe such superficial words.

Who knew…

Shawn said in a deep voice, "Ask her to apologize to you. Or, you can do whatever you want to her."

She suddenly looked up at him and asked, "Really?"

"Why don't you believe it?" Shawn asked back, "Can you be compared to her?"

Susan leaned on his shoulder and beamed happily.

Shawn's taste was really unpredictable, it turned out that he really liked this type of woman.

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.

    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.

    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...

    “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

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
