Shawn stared at Natalie closely, the corners of his lips pursed slightly.He did not look at Aurum.It was all up to their gut feelings.Would Natalie really exchange the antidote this time?"Are you sure, Natalie. If you want to save Aurum, you must undo Nicole's spell. Then, you won't have any leverage.""I am sure."Only then did Shawn look at Aurum."What a scene of deep affection. Aurum, you are so lucky to have a woman who would do this for you..." he said.Aurum looked at Natalie and said, "Is it worth it?"Natalie did not speak."Natalie, have you forgotten what I told you in the dining hall just now?" Aurum said.She ignored his words!He urged thousands of times to just give the antidote and leave the rest to him.Why was Natalie so stubborn? She would not listen!Shawn's eyes flashed, and his eyes flicked back and forth between the two of them.However, he did not interrupt Aurum."You are too stupid, too stubborn. It ruined you… There is still a chance, but

Why did she still mention Winnie?What did that have to do with Winnie!Natalie snorted, "I know that Mr. Wood has always been ruthless and decisive. He never let anyone die easily, but is good at making life worse than death. You hate Winnie so much, and you want to torture her for the rest of your life.""So, Winnie must still be alive. Even if she was on her last leg, you would call the doctor to revive her.""That's right. She's still alive, but what I'm asking you for is the antidote.""The antidote lies in Winnie."What?When Natalie said this, everyone was shocked.Natalie put such an important thing on Winnie?No one would have imagined that a crazy Winnie held the antidote that Shawn and Gale wanted most!"Are you sure that the current Winnie has the antidote? She has been searched all over her body several times, and there is nothing suspicious!" Shawn asked quickly.If so, he already knew it!Shawn's expression was dignified, with a trace of killing intent. "Nata

Natalie shrugged. "I'm being cautious. I can still stay alive because of my blood but living doesn't matter to me anymore."Aurum is important."Gale, I want him to be happy. The person he loves the most is you, his biggest dream is to marry you and have children with you... Promise him that, okay?"While begging, Natalie wanted to tag on Gale's clothes. "Please, he loves you so much. He is the person who loves you the most in the world… He can't give me what he gives you…"Shawn kicked her away mercilessly.He shouted coldly, "Come on!""Mr. Wood.""Take Winnie out. Take her blood and give it to Nicole! At the same time, keep an eye on Nicole to observe the changes. If there is any news, report it immediately!" he ordered."Yes, sir!"Shawn's kick was very hard.Natalie was already extremely weak from the torture. She fell to the ground and could not get up for a long time."Natalie! Why can't you listen to me?" Aurum hurried over and helped her up.Natalie started coughin

Such a terrible and stubborn love was like a cold snake, slowly wrapped around his body and then tightened, almost strangling him to death!He did not want this kind of love, but Natalie kept giving it.Then, Aurum thought he could not love her, and he could not deceive his inner feelings, so… he could only change a way to respond to Natalie's love.Gale did not feel soft-hearted or pitiful.She deserved it.It was all self-inflicted!Aurum glanced at Gale, but Gale did not notice.Now that he was holding Natalie like this, what would she think?In fact, Aurum also understood that the relationship between them could no longer go back to twenty years ago.She is married with children.He could not fit into her life!Although Aurum had no love for Natalie in his heart, he cared for her.That had been cultivated over the years and cannot be eliminated.He would always remember Natalie."What's the matter? Have you got Winnie's blood? Hurry up!" Gale asked softly.It had bee

That was his baby girl!"My blood and Winnie's blood are the antidote. The spell should be gone. If I am lying, let me be struck by lightning..." Natalie said.Before she finished speaking, she suddenly stopped before saying, "If I gave the fake antidote, Aurum would have to die!"She did not care about lightning, but she cared about Aurum.So, in front of Shawn, she swore such a poisonous oath!Shawn squinted deeply. "Then how do you explain Nicole's condition?""Wait! Maybe it is because she is so young and her body couldn't bear the reaction. She developed a high fever, which is normal. Maybe she will return to normal in two hours," Natalie replied.Aurum also said, "Wait a little longer. It's not too late."Only then did Shawn let go of his hand.Natalie's body fell back onto the sofa like a piece of rag.He thought she would stay silent, but she said, "We don't have time... If Nicole's fever continues until tomorrow morning, won't you have to suffer again?" "It's okay.

As the time for the attack was approaching, Shawn received a video call on his cell phone.He answered."Daddy… "Nicole's weak voice reached his ears."Nicole! Are you alright?" Shawn stared deeply at the screen."Why am I still in the hospital… Am I having an operation?" Nicole said.She blinked slowly, with a dazed expression on her face.Shawn's eyes flickered slightly.Operation? Bone marrow transplant?Did Nicole not remember anything after her surgery?He looked at Gale next to him.Gale was also very puzzled.Shawn hesitated for a second, then moved the phone slightly with the camera facing Gale."Who is this, Daddy?" Nicole looked carefully.Gale also stared at Nicole, not daring to breathe, let alone speak.Would Nicole recognize her?She was still wearing ugly makeup, which was completely different from her usual appearance! There was no resemblance!Nicole hesitated. "Are you Mommy? You don't look like Mommy?"Gale choked up and said, "Nicole...""Ah, i

"Okay, I'll wait for you!" Nicole replied obediently.The phrase warmed the hearts of Shawn and Gale.They had been waiting for her to say it for a long time!"Yeah! We've been waiting for you to wake up too, for a long, long time... Nicole," Gale said.Nicole smiled.Her smile was so pretty.Nicole, who belonged to Gale, finally came back!As soon as she hung up, Gale's tears fell even more fiercely.Shawn sighed deeply. "Galey, why are you crying more than Nicole?""Nicole doesn't like to cry. Over the years, she seldom cries. She only hums to me when she is too sick. Since she came to Sea City, she's cried more than ever before," Gale replied with a sob."She needed to be treated for leukemia, and then she was under a spell. She always feels that I don't want her anymore, I don't love her anymore, and she doesn't feel safe, so she cries.""Otherwise... Nicole is really good."That was a fact.Almost every time Nicole shed tears, it was either because of illness or Gale.

Aurum looked at Shawn and Gale, and Natalie looked at him.She loved him, but he loved her.Their love was a triangle, an endless loop, never intersecting.Destined to be an unfulfilled love.Because love needed to be between both sides.Natalie thought, 'Aurum… When will you realize that Gale has long since ceased to belong to you, and you are the only one who is still stubbornly guarding the innocence and promise made in your childhood?'Gale sorted out his emotions and looked at Natalie again."Gale, you won. You got everything you wanted, and now you don't have any worries at all. All the good things in the world surround you..." Natalie said."Yes, my daughter is finally awake. I can hear her calling me Mommy again, and I don't have to worry every day that she suddenly doesn't know me again. She is healthy, safe and happy.”"You are so beautiful, you can easily have what you want."Gale met her gaze. "Natalie, you were living a life that most people could only dream of,

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
