"Don't think about it. How can the experience be the same every time?" Shawn coughed twice.Gale thought so, too."Okay." Seeing her frowning, Shawn was really afraid that she would realize the truth, so he urged, "Go and wash up, Nicole is still waiting for us to have breakfast together."Gale nodded in response.She turned and walked to the bathroom.Shawn secretly heaved a sigh of relief and went to the cloakroom to change.At this moment, Gale, who had just walked two steps, suddenly turned around. "Wait!""Hmm?"Gale said, "Something is wrong! Shawn, tell me the truth!"He remained calm. "About what?""Don't pretend to be stupid! This time is obviously different from the last time! Even if I'm drunk and unconscious, I would have felt something!"She was not an ignorant girl who knew nothing.During the four years of separation from Shawn, she never experienced something like that.After returning to Sea City, she and Shawn only had sex two times.She was too flustere

Gale was completely stunned.Nothing happened?She turned her head around all of a sudden.It took her a long time to say, "That night...""You slept soundly. I just hugged you," Shawn explained."Then my clothes...""You said it's hot and took it off."Gale blinked. "Then your clothes...""I'm hot too."How could he not be hot?The beloved woman was right next to him in his arms, but he could only watch but not touch her. Was that something ordinary men can bear?Shawn did not know how many cold showers he took!"So… There is nothing at all, and you made it all up?" Gale said."Yes.""You!"Gale was about to vomit blood."Galey, don't tell me you hope it really happened?" Shawn said softly.Gale did not know what to say at all, so she could only keep stomping her feet. "Shawn!""Okay, I was wrong, I... just wanted to tease you," he coaxed her."Then, you should explain it to me afterward!"Shawn hugged her into his arms and put his chin against her heart. "If I tol

As soon as she walked in, Nicole's voice sounded, "Mommy, it's time for breakfast. I've poured milk for you!"Her voice was sweet and crisp.She sat down and pinched Nicole's little face. "You also need to drink milk to grow taller.""Yeah! Daddy drinks too! Cheers!"With a normal Nicole, the family was a little more happy."Daddy and Mommy will take you to kindergarten today. How about that?" Gale said.Nicole nodded vigorously. "Okay!"She could not wait.Gale would have to have a talk with the teacher to make sure they do not mention the previous things.She could also tell Joshua the good news that Nicole had regained her consciousness!Gale's mood improved a lot.Shawn put a poached egg into her bowl, and Gale snorted softly."You're not going to talk to me anymore?"She asked, "What did you say?"Nicole immediately asked, "Mommy, why are you ignoring Dad?"Gale was speechless.She understood that Shawn was intentionally asking her the question in front of Nicole!

Shawn was refreshed now because, after four years, he finally got the person he wanted.It was his dream…Therefore, no matter how Gale glared at him, he accepted it frankly.Women should be indulged.After breakfast, Nicole jumped off the dining chair to carry her small school bag.Shawn approached her and whispered, "Galey, can I bite your neck tonight?""Not tonight!""Then tomorrow night."Gale could not say no to him, so she just turned around and left.His deep and hearty laughter came and echoed in the dining room.The housekeeper said, "It's been a long time since I saw Mr. Wood so happy. Madam, it's been a long time since the house has been so harmonious.""Of course he is happy, he got everything..."While talking, Gale carried her work bag, but it felt a little heavy.She opened it and saw a large bottle of water."No wonder it's so heavy. It's a joke if people see it," she muttered.What was the use of water?The bruise could only be eliminated slowly with t

"Yes! I'm also very surprised, Mommy, I actually got first place in the exam! It's rare!" Nicole nodded vigorously."It means that you are getting better and better."Nicole was still very humbled. "My brother's score in history class is higher than mine. It is because his score in the handicraft class is a little lower that I can overtake him. Mommy, you know, brother is stupid, he can't even fold a crane."She looked around but could not find Shawn, so she asked in a low voice, "Mommy, when can Daddy know the truth about Joshua?"Gale replied, "I'll ask Joshua later.""Good!"Gale took Nicole's little hand and walked to the door of the classroom.She glanced inside.Joshua was sitting by the window, playing with a Rubik's cube.He fiddled with it a few times casually, and the Rubik's Cube, which was messed up just now, had become neat and tidy.Nicole trotted over. "Joshua, Mommy is looking for you."Joshua was quite bored at first, waiting for the class bell to ring. When

She asked, "What do you think? Do you agree?""Err, fine.""Okay!"Gale breathed a sigh of relief.After convincing Joshua, she played it by ear and found a suitable time to discuss it with Shawn.However, Gale frowned again."What's the matter, baby? Are you still not happy after I agreed? Could it be that you want me to run over and tell the old man, 'Hey, I'm your son. Are you surprised or not?'" Joshua said."That's not necessary, I'll communicate with him.""So what are you doing with such a bitter face?"Gale squatted down and looked at him pitifully. "Joshua… you don't know your father's temper. It's hard to describe..."She started complaining."He has seen you so many times, but he has never known that you are his son. I kept it a secret. He will definitely be angry if I tell him now. No one likes to feel like being kept in the dark.""He will definitely be shocked, and the relationship between you and him is not very good. I feel worried when I think about it now.

"I figured it out. Mommy, you came to me to say that you want my help, but you secretly want to check if I will be angry with you for wanting to reveal who I am to him.""No, no. You are the smartest person in our family, with a wealth of knowledge and great wisdom. You can easily solve any difficulties and turn dangers into safety!" Gale denied.Although his expression was disdainful, he smiled.Men love compliments!"Let me think about it. When you're angry, how does the old man coax you?" Joshua asked."He won't coax me!"Shawn is a very boring person, and he doesn't like to talk about anything. He only likes to do it.Even if Gale's displeasure were all on her face, he would not comfort her.Maybe he did not have the word 'coax' in his dictionary.At most, Shawn would apologize and admit his mistake. He will only say 'I'm sorry' to Gale.He would also seriously analyze the problem, find out the reason, and occasionally say a few touching words of love.That was it."Are

She just cared about Aurum, and it was not like she made any big mistake.She could have kept it as leverage.It was not leverage if she would give it away easily."Okay, let's do this. Go back to class and take care of Nicole. Wait for me to take you back to Temperley Hall!"Joshua waved his hand casually. "I am fine living with Grandpa, don't disturb our peaceful world.""Sounds romantic.""Whatever, as long as you understand what I mean."Joshua shrugged coolly and walked to the classroom.Gale smiled. "You are as stubborn as your dad. I know you want to be with Grandpa, and you think he's lonely living alone."Joshua paused, but in the end, he still walked into the classroom without looking back.The spitting image of Shawn.Gale stood outside the classroom, watching Joshua and Nicole, paying attention to class. She took out her mobile phone to take a picture of this scene.Then she went to the principal's office.When Gale arrived, Shawn had almost completed his expla

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
