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
"Take it easy… That's a person, a living person, not a dead body." He dragged and tugged so casually that Gale was terrified."He won't die."Gale looked sideways at Shawn's angular profile.That jealous man…She wanted to explain that she did not love Aurum.She lied because she was angry at him.However, when the words were at the tip of her lips, Gale felt that now was not the best time to explain."Shawn, we need to thank Aurum. Without him intentionally eating..." Gale said.However, Shawn interrupted her. "Galey, can you accept Aurum's special feelings for Natalie?"It was said it was not love.However, it was love.Friendship accumulated month by month.As long as Natalie was alive, Aurum would take good care of Natalie for the rest of his life!He could not let Natalie go. He would always leave a small place in his heart for Natalie!Aurum was such a person.Passionate, gentle, considerate.Shawn thought deeply, 'Is Gale going to accept that?'"I can," Gale rep
Gale looked back at Aurum. "But he...""I said, he can't die!""Oh, I won't leave. I want to stay and take care of Aurum. He just had an attack and took the antidote. How can we leave him here?" Gale struggled.The more she struggled, the tighter Shawn gripped."Don't you want to go home and take a good look at Nicole?"Gale nodded. "Of course, I thought about it, but Nicole is already asleep at this point, I need to be here…""Someone will take care of him!""Where is anyone? I haven't seen anyone for a long time. They are all your subordinates."Gale turned her head and insisted on going back.However, her strength was no match for Shawn.He directly picked her up, threw her on the co-pilot seat, pulled the seat belt over with quick hands, and buckled it firmly."Shawn! Leaving Aurum alone like this is really dangerous!" Gale said.He slammed the door shut and got into the driver seat.The car moved and left quickly.Gale was still looking back.At a distance, she saw
Shawn gulped.If she continued, he would not be able to control himself."After waiting for so long and trying everything, Nicole finally returns to us. What a happy thing this is. Just smile," Gale said.Shawn lowered his head suddenly and kissed her lips deeply!Gale did not even realize it.His lips tasted of him.A faint tobacco taste.She blinked her eyes and slightly parted her red lips, wanting to respond, but Shawn suddenly backed away from her lips.Gale was dumbfounded.What was that for?Quick fix?Was he teasing her?Seeing Gale's expression, Shawn raised his eyebrows deeply, in a good mood.However, he did not show it and was as indifferent as before."What? Do you really want me to continue? Do you think it was too short lived?" When the red light turned green, Shawn continued driving."It's... it's not!"Gale's face felt hot, and she hurried back to the co-pilot and sat down.What the hell was he doing?Was it a kiss, or was it not a kiss?What's worse
"The sachets are so good. Carry it with you. It's small and exquisite, and you can use it when you go for lunch breaks. It can also calm your nerves. I'll add a few flavors for you..." She laughed dryly.Shawn interrupted her, "Nothing is as useful as you."Gale started to play dumb and said, "Oh." Then she turned to look out the car window.It was late at night when they got home.There was silence, with only crickets chirping non-stop.Gale went straight to Nicole's bedroom.On her pink princess bed, Nicole was lying on her side, sleeping soundly with the doll in her arms. There were still tear stains on her cheeks."Nicole, my Nicole..."Gale's heart was about to melt.After a lot of hard work, her precious daughter finally returned to normal.From now on, she no longer had to pretend to be ugly or old, and she did not have to be worried that Nicole would dislike her.Gale reached out and tucked the quilt carefully.After going through so much, her view of Shawn changed
"Tonight... you can treat me as a bad guy?"Gale immediately became vigilant. "What do you mean?""If I invite you into the master bedroom, you will definitely refuse. If I forcibly drag you in, you will struggle. Nicole would wake up and guards would come storming in. That would not be the best either. I could only do this," Shawn said.As soon as Gale passed by the master bedroom, he would immediately pull her in!Then, the door would be closed and locked. Just let him do whatever he wanted!"You cheat!" Gale did not expect that he had been waiting here just to drag her into the master bedroom!Shawn admitted openly and frankly, "Yes."What a thick skin!Gale snorted.Her eyes gradually adjusted to the dark master bedroom, and she was able to see a little bit clearly.Shawn's tall figure, the slightly fluttering curtains in the distance, the outline of the bedside lamp..."Why don't you turn on the light?" she said, reaching out to fumble for the switch next to her.Whe
