Shawn quickly thought of a plan. "You enter the house through the back door and go upstairs to put on makeup first. I'll go to appease Nicole first."After a pause, he said, "I've wronged you."Gale shook her head. "I'm not wronged."Shawn held her hand deeply.The car stopped at the back door of Temperley Hall, and Gale got out of the car quickly.Shawn's expression was grim.Entering the living room, Nicole was sitting on the sofa, her head drooping and her shoulders shrugging.The coffee table was filled with all kinds of desserts and snacks, which Nicole usually likes to eat.Now she was not interested in any of that either.On the carpet, there were many beautiful new dolls piled up, but Nicole still did not even look at them.Shawn walked over and sat down next to her. "Nicole, the housekeeper called me and said you are acting out. What's wrong?"Nicole raised her head. Her eyes were red. Obviously, she was crying, and there were still teardrops on her eyelashes."Dad
Gale was also idle, so she began to tidy up the things on the coffee table.Every two minutes, she could hear Nicole asking, "Daddy, when will Mommy make a video call?"Shawn always replied, "Soon, wait."It took half an hour when, finally, Shawn's cell phone rang.Nicole was suddenly full of energy and immediately jumped out of Shawn's arms. "Is it Mommy!""Yes."Shawn pressed the answer button.Soon, Winnie's face appeared in the video.Only the face was shown."Mommy! Mommy, where are you now? Why don't you send me a picture?" Nicole shouted happily."Did you have so much fun that you forgot that you still have a daughter? Mommy, do you miss me?""You have to remember to call me every night before going to bed! I've been waiting every day!"Winnie's gaze was dull. Her expression was very stiff, a little absent-minded.After about ten seconds, she said, "Oh. Got it."Very nonchalant.After the miscarriage of the child in Winnie's womb, she became completely insane.Ev
Shawn denied more firmly than her, "No. You heard wrong."The father and daughter confronted each other.Nicole did not refute him but said, "Then I will call again."She went to get Shawn's cell phone again, but Shawn held it up high, preventing her from touching it at all.Seeing this, Gale immediately stepped forward, knelt down and gently persuaded, "Nicole, your mommy is busy right now. Don't disturb her. When she is free tomorrow, you can call her again."Nicole just looked at Shawn without saying a word.Her eyes were full of stubbornness.Obviously, she did not want to just leave.She wanted to make another video call!She and Shawn looked at each other for a few seconds, then looked away.He could be hard-hearted to anyone, but not to these two girls in front of her."Time to go to bed. We will call her tomorrow.""You're still lying to me. Mommy screamed in fear just now, but you didn't care about her at all. Instead of asking what happened to her, you just hung u
Gale felt lost.Nicole hugged the doll and lay quietly, closing her eyes. "I'm going to sleep.""You don't want to listen to the story anymore?""I don't."Gale had no choice but to close the storybook in her hand.Shawn walked in.Nicole remained motionless.Shawn sat on the edge of the bed. "Nicole, Daddy came to say good night to you."She still closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.Gale gently shook his head at him.Nicole was really angry and sad.She was fighting silently in her own way.Gale was depressed when she walked out of the room. "I didn't expect that Nicole would be controlled by the spell again so soon... I don't know when the next time will be when she will be sober again.""We will cure her."She nodded. "I hope so."Their time together was short but beautiful."Nicole has already realized that something is wrong. If she can't get rid of her doubts as soon as possible, she will only fall worse into despair every time. Based on what I know about
Although she did not drink alcohol and was conscious, what if Shawn suddenly started to mess around in the middle of the night?When the time came, what would Gale do?Gale hurriedly took two steps forward, holding the doorknob tightly.As long as Shawn reached out to grab her, she could immediately open the door, then lock the door!That way, she could escape!She will think about the future later!"Joshua is still with father-in-law? Has Peter been taking care of him?" Shawn asked.Gale was about to breathe a sigh of relief but, on second thoughts…Shawn's focus seemed to be very dangerous!"Yes. Didn't I tell you?" Gale replied."I remember.""Yeah."Shawn asked, "He has been in Sea City for so long. Why hasn't his mother, Molly, contacted him?"Did she have no sense of responsibility?The palm of Gale holding the doorknob started to sweat.She would rather Shawn carry her into the master bedroom than ask that.She would rather rack her brains to guard against Shawn
Joshua came over early the next morning, He was wearing a T-shirt, overalls, and a cap. He was very trendy, just like a child star."Joshua, do you remember what I told you? Don't let anything go wrong," Peter asked."Don't worry, don't worry! I will complete the task!"Hey, he was Joshua. It would always go well!Peter always felt that he was too young to be reliable.Joshua was quite smart, but he was still a child.Gale sent a message to Peter before going to bed last night and explained the matter so that Peter could brief Joshua.He was still wondering why Joshua had to come?However, Peter complied.At least Joshua is Nicole's older brother. Siblings may have their own ways of communicating and little secrets.Nicole did not care about Shawn or Gale, but she would care about Joshua."Let's go through it one more time. She's not sober, but you know everything… Huh? Where did you go?" Peter was sitting on the sofa, still talking.Peter inadvertently looked to the side
Shawn snorted coldly, then put him down.As soon as Joshua landed on the ground, he turned around and made a face at Shawn before continuing to run forward."Stop, come back. Nicole hasn't gotten up yet," Shawn said."It's already dawn. I'm going to wake her up!"Joshua did not look back."You are a boy. You can't just enter a girl's room willy-nilly? I am telling you to stop!""Nicole won't care! She will allow me to go in!"Joshua arrived at the second bedroom door in a blink of an eye.Shawn followed.Why did Joshua not take his words seriously?Knock, knock, knock! Joshua knocked on the door politely. "Nicole, it's me. I'm coming in!"He turned the doorknob.The door actually opened.Shawn was shocked. Gale did not lock it last night?Before he could react, Joshua had already run in.He followed immediately.However, the scene in the bedroom caused his expression to change rapidly, and his face became dark!Because…Gale was changing!"Ah!" Gale exclaimed when sh
"If you don't believe me, you can ask the Big Beauty yourself."Gale was quiet.Yes, it was not the first time he saw her changing clothes.Normally, Joshua would still turn around politely. He would know even if it was his mommy, he still had to keep a distance.He was clearly admiring her on purpose this time.Shawn looked at Gale. "Is what he said true?"Gale racked her brains for an excuse. "Eh… I... I went back to my house to live for a while, and it happened that Aurum brought Joshua over…"She stammered and explained."Hey, I didn't lie, did I?"Shawn just wanted to throw him out the door at first. Now, he wants to throw him downstairs!"Forget it, Shawn. He's just a kid." Gale quickly put on the T-shirt."But he's also a boy."" When he grows up, he won't remember a thing."Gale walked over quickly and rescued Joshua from Shawn's grasp.She gave Joshua a warning look.He should stop testing Shawn's boundaries.She could see that Joshua was deliberately angering
