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

Shawn still did not move.She persuaded again, her voice softened, "No matter how you say it, Aurum still did it for Nicole..."Shawn raised his eyebrows deeply. "Are you sure? Galey, you are too simple. You could not tell Aurum's real intentions.""Ah?""He wants to have the last chance to save Natalie! Did you hear what he said when he and Natalie separated just now?" Shawn snorted coldly.Gale nodded. "Aurum wants Natalie to come to us to confess and repent.""Yes. Because he knows that he helped you a lot in the past, you owe him a lot of favors, and he never asks you to do anything. What's more, you are the person he promised to marry since you were a child. The relationship between them is complicated. As long as he begs you and Natalie admits her mistakes, you will forgive them."Shawn knew Aurum's thoughts.He could not hide from Shawn's eyes, no matter how calculative he was.Actually… Gale also knew.She and Aurum were actually more like confidants.He understood h

Gale leaned over and pressed Aurum's head on her shoulder. "Let me help. I'll be with you!"Sure enough, Shawn's face darkened rapidly.Gale pretended not to see it and continued talking to Aurum, speaking softly, "You save Natalie, and she doesn't appreciate it. Why continue?""You've done so much, but you can't get her to turn around. Aurum, you've done your best.""Anyway, even if you have other intentions, you did get the antidote. I owe you another favor...""Now, I can't just sit and watch you suffer."Gale wiped away the blood from the corner of Aurum's mouth little by little.Gentle and careful.Shawn stood by, feeling completely ignored."Gale!""Will you give him the antidote? It's been another ten minutes. You want to punish Aurum for giving Natalie the antidote just now. This long time is enough for you to calm down," she asked."It has only been ten minutes.""Every second is a torment."Shawn stared at her deeply, "You are suffering more than him.""I don't

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
