"Besides, will Heather still follow him? I'm afraid she is already looking for a rich and powerful old man!"Shawn raised her eyebrows deeply. "I'm checking on Heather.""Any clues?""It's too long ago, so it's a bit difficult to check. However, there will be news, so please wait patiently."Gale gritted her teeth. "I felt that she was very guilty. Her eyes were evasive and her words were hesitant. However, she still refused to admit it."Shawn tilted his head deeply and met her gaze. "Galey, I will find out those who have hurt you one by one and let them get the punishment they deserve."That was his promise."Okay." Gale looked at him and smiled sweetly.She had no appetite at first, but after having a deep chat with Shawn, her mood gradually improved.Sure enough, a gentle lover could alleviate most of the suffering in the world.Gale suddenly felt full of expectations for the future.In the afternoon, she and Shawn returned to the Wood Group.Shawn personally escorted h
"Huh? Then what should I do?""Go write a novel!"Peach asked excitedly, "Gale, how did you know that I secretly wrote novels when I was in school?"Gale did not know whether to laugh or cry.With Peach's temperament, she was capable at work, innocent, and very lovable.What a nice girl.It would be great if she could marry Sam!"Then do you have someone you like? You can imagine him as your leading actor! You must have a perfect image of a man in your mind to write a good novel and come up with a rich plot!" Gale asked."I...I have never..."As Peach spoke, her face suddenly turned red.Gale could see her blushing.Her body reacted naturally!"Oh, it seems that you have someone you like, and you keep it in your heart. Tell me, who do you like? Can I help you be a matchmaker?" Gale jokes."Gale, don't laugh at me.""I'm serious. I would be happy if I could solve your lifelong problem!" Gale said.Peach smiled. "I am not worthy of him."Gale did not like hearing this.S
As soon as the conversation shifted to gossip, Peach immediately perked up and became animated."Mr. Winter and Ms. Summer were both acting really unusually lately. They are always together, they argue less, and Ms. Summer has been receiving flowers... I sense something is happening between them!" Peach said, her eyes lighting up.Gale playfully poked her on the forehead. "When it comes to your own love life, you stutter and stammer. When it's gossip time, you transform into a different person."Peach smiled sheepishly. "Well, who doesn't love gossip, Gale?""You and Summer's love life are my gossip. Peach, if you like someone, go after them. At least you won't have any regrets, you understand?"Gale had high hopes for Sam and Peach. They were a perfect match. Gale had absolute confidence in Sam's character, and Peach's lively, pleasant, and cheerful personality could bring him joy.Now that Peach seemed to be interested, she would have to find out if Sam felt the same. She decid
Summer felt like she was struck by something. She suddenly had no strength and lay on the seat motionlessly."It's over, I can't do this.""Come on, is it really that bad? It's just one more day," Gale asked."One day, 24 hours, 440 minutes, 86,400 seconds." Summer counted on her fingers. "They say that time drags, but one more day feels like an extra year to me! Do you think it's easy?"Gale shrugged. "You've made it through thirty days, is one more day that difficult? Who knows, you might be together for thirty more years, celebrating your 30th anniversary…""It's impossible! Absolutely not! I will never be with Joe!""Don't be so absolute about it.""Absolutely!" Summer slammed the table. "Even if all the men in the world were dead, I still wouldn't be with Joe!"Gale just chuckled."Summer, don't be surprised if you end up feeling like Joe is better than all the men in the world."Summer pointed to her eyes. "I'm not blind! I'm not interested in him!"A knock came to the
"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Gale, what have you been up to these days? I haven't seen you much, and you don't look too well. You seem a bit worn out," she asked.Gale gave her a rundown of everything that had happened.Summer listened, gaping at the story."It's quite complicated, so I don't really want to get into it. Besides, I'm close to resolving everything. Don't worry about it." Gale smiled."Wait, Gale, your family background and what's happening with the Yarns' are your personal affairs. How you handle it is your business, I support you. But... you've rejected Aurum just like that?""It's impossible for us."Sometimes, fate is a strange thing. If Gale had always been the Yarns' daughter, then she and Aurum would have gotten married. They were inseparable childhood friends.However, Gale disappeared.Not only did she disappear, but she lived with the Warm family and grew up with Sam instead. She was on track to be married to Sam.However, the W
Gale nodded. "That's true."Summer clapped her hands together. "See, I told you! However, Nicole has Shawn's bone marrow and lives with him, so she's probably on his side. Joshua lives in the Lefting family and has witnessed Aurum's devotion to you. He must be on Aurum's side!""Tsk tsk, Gale, what will you do? Your son supports Aurum, but your daughter supports Shawn. You're stuck in the middle, torn between them.""You underestimate Joshua. I've already talked to him. He said he supports all my decisions and will cooperate unconditionally," Gale said.Summer scoffed. "He's too sensible.""You hate Shawn that much? What if he hears you bad-mouthing him and holds a grudge against you..."Summer quickly covered Gale's mouth. "Ugh, don't say that!"She was still afraid of Shawn. After all, he was her boss.The more Summer thought about it, the more anxious she became. Could it be that Shawn was really outside the door?She got up and walked to the door, peering through the crack
She actually noticed that these flowers were meticulously chosen by Joe every day. Unfortunately, Summer was unaware of this and thought he just paid for the florist to do it. However, Joe also did not seize the opportunity to reveal his effort. He could have said it to move Summer. What woman does not like hearing about the effort her man put into romance her?"Mrs. Wood, it's rare to see you so free today. Is your work almost done?" Joe changed the subject."Not yet, but it's getting there.""Your latest series is selling very well in the market. Next month, you'll receive a large bonus. Congratulations. Would you like to treat us?"Gale nodded. "Sure, I'll treat you both."However, Summer quickly waved her hand. "No, no, after this month, except for during work, I don't want to see Joe anymore. I want to be free!""Oh?" Joe looked at her with a smile. "Are you tired of me?""Could you be reasonable, Joe? We've spent too much time together this month!"Summer felt like, apa
Back then, it was Shawn who first expressed his love to her. Gale realized that Joe also had his ways to win a woman's heart. Indeed, he and Shawn were like two peas in a pod, capable of tricks, even goading her to make another bet.It was all up to Summer whether she would take the bait.Once Gale left, Summer looked at Joe."What is this guaranteed win you mentioned? Tell me more," she asked.Although Summer was willing to accept the consequences of her bets, she still felt unsatisfied. If there were a way to turn the tables, she would definitely want to take it. She had been enslaved by Joe that month, but next month, she might have a chance to turn the situation around.Joe approached slowly and stood in front of Summer, his hand resting on her waist. Summer's body tensed for a moment, feeling unnatural, but she did not brush off his touch. She reasoned that a girlfriend should tolerate her boyfriend hugging her.Joe asked, "What do you think? Is there a bet where you'd win f
