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

Shawn and Gale were speechless."Brother?"At this time, Nicole rubbed her eyes and sat up from the bed.She blinked to confirm that she had seen Joshua."Bro, it's really you… I thought it was a dream." Nicole laughed suddenly.Joshua replied, "It's not a dream. I'm here!"Nicole immediately got up from the bed and put on her shoes. "I miss you so much, Joshua."She happily ran to Joshua, smiling sweetly, with dimples on her cheeks.She completely ignored Shawn and Gale."I miss you too! I miss you more than you miss me!" Joshua responded.Shawn let out a cold snort.Joshua sure could flirt with girls!No wonder Nicole likes him so much!Nicole would not even talk to him when she was angry, but when she saw Joshua, she smiled like a flower!"What's the matter? Uncle Shawn, do you have any problems with me? Do you hate me? You don't welcome me at all to your home, do you?" Joshua looked up at him.The more he spoke, the more aggrieved he became, and his voice became soft

Shawn did not move.Joshua said deliberately, "How about... I go?""No!" Nicole immediately grabbed his sleeve.Shawn took a deep breath.He would be defeated by Joshua!What a joke!"No, you stay. I'll go. You and Nicole have a good time, have fun," Shawn said through gritted teeth."Thank you, Uncle Shawn!"Gale smacked his forehead.There were not many people who could bring Shawn to his knees.She was one.Joe was sometimes one.Now, there was Joshua.Gale really wanted to tell Shawn not to worry about it because he is his son.However, she could not.From Nicole's point of view, indeed, Joshua was very important.This is her brother, who grew up with her. When depressed, she would be more keen to get close to Joshua.Shawn took a last glance before turning away.Gale pulled Shawn. "Let's go. Nothing will happen, don't worry."After walking out of the room, Shawn's expression was still rotten.Gale took his arm and tried to comfort him, "It's not the first day y

Joshua lied through his teeth.The ability seemed to be inherited.Nicole was taken aback for a while when he said the same thing and finally began to doubt herself. "So it's me. Did I misunderstand Daddy?"Joshua patted his chest. "That's right. I'm your brother, and I can't lie to you. You can always doubt men, but you can't doubt me!""Then why does Mommy video call you every day but doesn't contact me?"Nicole looked lonely."You have always been by Mommy's side. Just this time, she has been away from you for so long. Unlike me, like a homeless tramp. I live at Aurum's house for a few days, live with Grandpa for a few days, dare not call mommy, can't recognize Daddy..."Hearing this, Nicole felt distressed and blamed herself."I'm sorry, Joshua. I don't want to occupy Mommy. I just want to know if she is doing well. Since you are sure that Mommy is safe and happy, I don't worry about her anymore.""You think too much. Mommy is fine."Nicole was still a little skeptical be

Joshua touched his chin.Nicole's wish... um..."It will come true soon!" Joshua said."Really?"Joshua could not be sure.He was firmly on Aurum's side!"Nicole, have you met Uncle Aurum?" he rubbed his hands."I've seen him.""What do you think of him as our daddy?"Nicole's eyes widened. "Joshua, we have a daddy now.""I know, I don't mind having one more."Nicole was shocked.One more Daddy?How could this be?"Cough, cough, cough... I mean, the new daddy. The old man is still our daddy. After all, we are related by blood. But the new daddy will be with Mommy, get married until old… " Joshua said.Nicole shook her head like a rattle. "No, no, no. Uncle Aurum is very good, but I still like my daddy more!""Believe me, Uncle Aurum is much better than the old man!""That won't work either!"Seeing that Nicole was so persistent, Joshua suddenly found himself in trouble.Nicole sided with the old man.He stood on Uncle Aurum's side.Then, let them see who would win

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
