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,
She looked around. "Water... Where is the water? Oh, yes, I almost forgot, you need to drink water to take the pills. You can't swallow them dry...""I'm going to get water!"With that said, Natalie was about to get up.Before she could stand up straight, Aurum's big hands suddenly grabbed her wrist forcefully and then pulled her back.Before Natalie could speak, Aurum opened her palm to take the antidote.Natalie let go naturally.She would not be on guard against Aurum. It was even more impossible for her to prevent Aurum from getting the antidote.She just thought Aurum wanted to take the antidote and did not want her to get water.So, Natalie just looked at him quietly.However, at this moment, an extremely unexpected scene happened!Gale and Shawn saw that after Aurum got the antidote, he stuffed it into Natalie's mouth without hesitation!It all happened so fast and so unexpectedly!No one thought that Aurum would do this!The pill went into Natalie's mouth.Before
Natalie looked at him with reddened eyes. "What are you going to do… Aurum. There is only one, the time is almost up..."Aurum's lips moved, not knowing how to explain it to her.Shawn would definitely give him the antidote.He would be fine.However, Aurum wanted Natalie to no longer suffer from the pain of the attack.He experienced it once. It was too painful. His limbs were in pain, and Natalie had to experience it every day!Even if Natalie was going to be punished, she had been in a fit for so long, and she handed over Gale's antidote. It was time to remove her poison and make her feel a little better.When Shawn and Gale watched this scene, they were also very surprised. They did not expect Aurum to give Natalie the antidote!That was not discussed at all beforehand. It was Aurum's own decision!Shawn's face was a little dark. "You two really impress me. You care about each other!"He was very dissatisfied, very unhappy!Aurum did not respect him at all by doing thi
Unexpectedly, it was a success.Gale was very surprised.The whole process could be regarded as relatively smooth.Aurum only had an attack once. Natalie could not bear it and decisively and quickly handed over the other half of the antidote.What surprised her even more was that Aurum would force-feed the antidote to Natalie!Gale no longer knew what to do in this situation. "Shawn, let's bring Aurum..."Gale looked sideways at the man beside her.However, before she finished speaking, Shawn had already walked toward Aurum.Shawn grabbed Aurum's collar. "How dare you do that!""You got the antidote you wanted, so it's a kind of exchange to make Natalie suffer less pain.""The exchange she proposed was to give you the antidote! It's not for her to eat it herself!"Aurum smiled. "I know you are very angry now, feeling quite cheated. No one dares to trick you like this."Shawn's hands tightened again, and the veins on the back of his hands bulged."Actually, giving the an
Natalie would let down her guard in front of Aurum. Once Natalie found out the truth…All her beliefs would collapse in that instant.In just a split second, Natalie would be defeated!"Shawn, the biggest beneficiary to my idea is you. Why do you need to destroy someone?""Destroy someone? Don't you know what you have done!""I just gave Natalie the antidote to ease her pain!""You betrayed me!"Aurum also realized that he was wrong.He apologized, "I'm sorry, I was selfish. You can see that I have experienced the pain of seizures and successfully obtained the antidote for Nicole."Shawn pushed him away heavily, stepped back, and withdrew his hand.The collar of Aurum's chest was wrinkled, but he did not care.There were faint signs of pain in the body.It was about time.It was about to start.His brows were tightly frowned upon, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead!Only Natalie knew him best and could understand how he felt. "Aurum! It's starting, isn't
Therefore, Aurum was confident enough.However, even if he tried his best, as long as Natalie refused to cooperate, his efforts would be meaningless.Natalie still did not speak."Trust me... I beg you..." Aurum slowly bent down and squatted down; the veins on his arms were bulging, and his fists clenched. "Natalie, listen to me. One last time…"Before he could finish speaking, Aurum could not bear the great pain coming from inside his body, so he knelt on the ground with a plop.Natalie felt distressed and hurried to help him. "Aurum!"Aurum refused to let her touch him and waved her away. "If you don't promise me... then don't come near me! Natalie, why won't you repent!"Bright red blood began to flow slowly from the corners of his mouth and eyes.Natalie looked at him.Aurum also saw his pitiful self in her eyes."I… "As soon as Natalie spoke, her voice was overshadowed by Shawn."Take her away!""Yes, Mr. Wood."The bodyguard held Natalie, and walked toward the door
