No amount of pre planning could help the situation then. Fortunately, Pearton succeeded in his crazy idea."Yeah, yeah. Whether he successfully rescued me or not, Uncle Pearton is undoubtedly a great hero!" Joshua nodded repeatedly.Pearton just nodded.Gale bent down, leaning against Pearton. "Take good care of yourself. We won't disturb you. If you need anything, just ask. I will do whatever I can to do it.""Thank you, Mrs. Wood."Pearton was extremely weak. In the short time he had been awake, he had expended most of his energy to converse with them.Gale, not wanting to disturb him, left with Joshua.Pearton slowly closed his eyes with a faint smile.He had done something profoundly meaningful in his life that he would never regret.Back in his ward, Joshua immediately started to settle scores.When Gale tried to put him back on the bed, he clung to her arm. "Mommy, Daddy bullied me. Whose side are you on?""When did he bully you?""Just now! When you ran out to see Un

"She was there? Why?" Gale exclaimed."Matthew couldn't really stand on his own, so she was there to support him. I threw the divorce papers in her face and told her that from now on, I will never see her and Matthew again," Mary explained."I also told Heather that despite all her scheming, seducing Matthew, and taking my daughter away, she gained nothing. I won't bother with her because she wasted half her life. If she wants Matthew, she can have him.""I told her there was nothing left to fight for. She took you away, which is indeed a crime deserving of death. Even if I had the intention to kill her now, it wouldn't change the fact that you left me at a young age. I want to forget it all.""Now you and Shawn have a loving relationship. Joshua and Nicole are growing up well. I don't want bloodshed; I don't want to be the villain punishing Heather. Let's move forward with grace."Gale nodded. "Mom, you're so open-minded. I feel relieved."She was worried that her unilateral dec

"Sure!" Joshua responded enthusiastically. Shawn also agreed.Gale smiled. "That's more like it." Regardless of what they discussed, they would gradually adapt and grow closer. After all, they were father and son.Joshua smirked. Shawn sighed. Even their expressions when they scowled were identical. Gale saw their expressions and found it amusing.A month had passed.Joshua was getting discharged. After spending a whole month in the hospital, Joshua was itching to get out. "I felt I could have left much earlier. Your paranoia and all those checks that delayed me for a week. The doctor finally allowed my discharge. Yes! I am finally free!" Joshua said.He grabbed his hospital gown and waved it above his head. He was in high spirits.The stitches on Joshua's neck were removed, and he would only need to medicate them to prevent scarring."Freedom! Freedom! Woo-hoo! I can run and jump again, free to soar!" Joshua bounced on the hospital bed, wiggling his hips.Shawn and Gale stood

Joshua picked up the gold necklace, bit on it, and grinned. That was not all. When Lucas arrived, he handed Joshua a key. "Great Grandpa, what is...""A house key.""What?! A house?"More precisely, it was the key to a villa. Lucas explained, "In the future, when you grow up and have a family, you can move here. Joshua, you can't keep living with your parents, can you?" Joshua joyfully accepted, "Thank you, Great Grandpa!"Lucas was always generous. After buying a theme park for Nicole, he purchased a villa for Joshua. Their gifts were progressively more luxurious."Do you ever feel that his gifts are getting more extravagant?" Gale nudged Shawn's shoulder.Was that appropriate? Would it cultivate Joshua's lavish spending habits?Take the racing car model from Peter as an example; it looked ordinary, but as a limited edition, it cost tens of thousands! Not to mention the gold necklace and a villa!Shawn replied, "It's fine."Gale realized she should not have asked him beca

Gale spoke first, "Aurum..."Shawn furrowed his brows, scrutinizing. Why was he here? Aurum looked calm. His eyes glanced past Shawn and Gale and made a beeline for Joshua. He held a bouquet, knocked on the door, and offered it to Joshua. "Joshua.""Uncle Aurum! You came!" Hearing Aurum's voice, Joshua's eyes lit up."How could I be absent on your big day?""I thought..."Joshua glanced at Shawn.Considering how petty and jealous his father was, he probably would not have informed Aurum. In fact, Shawn indeed did not tell Aurum that Joshua was getting discharged that day. Aurum came on his own.However, with everyone here, could Shawn really send him away?Aurum smiled. "I haven't bought anything special, Joshua, just a bouquet of flowers.""Flowers are great, so beautiful and fresh. I love flowers!" Joshua ran over, taking the flowers in his hands. "Uncle Aurum, I like everything you give me!"Aurum patted his head. "In the future, stay close to your mom and dad, be obedient

"Actually, you don't have to accompany me. Shawn wouldn't be pleased," Aurum said."It's a matter of courtesy."Aurum suddenly smirked mockingly. "Do we need that between us?"Gale bit her lip. "I didn't mean that...""Gale, you're very fortunate now that you have Shawn by your side. He loves, respects, and cares for you and is accepted by Joshua and Nicole. Four years ago, when you jumped into the sea, you couldn't have imagined that one day you would have such a perfect life.""Perhaps that's life, we never know what happens next."Aurum stopped, facing her. "Gale, are you happy now?"Gale nodded."Do you love him?"Gale nodded again without hesitation.Aurum remained silent for a few seconds, then smiled. "I knew it. I guessed it a long time ago. Your feelings for Shawn never disappeared; they've always been buried deep in your heart. No matter what I do, I can't replace him.""Even though I've done so much for you. Even though we've known each other since childhood.""A

Aurum honestly believed that his silent efforts and years of companionship had wielded results. He thought that Gale had a change of heart and that she had feelings for him.Therefore, he hastily canceled the engagement with Natalie, severing ties. He wanted a fresh start, unburdened, to embrace Gale. However, what transpired was realizing that it was all his own misguided imagination.Gale sighed. "I lied. Back then, it was just to deceive Shawn for a divorce." In a moment of rashness, she wounded two people, Shawn and Aurum. "I'm sorry. I thought you ended things with Natalie because you found the real heiress of the Yarn family. I thought you claimed to like me just to use me as a cover, so I went along and said I liked you too," Gale added.Unexpectedly, she was the true Ms. Yarn, and Aurum's love was genuine. However, her proclamation of loving him was a lie. Aurum slowly clenched his fists. "Everything was fake, all of it. The only true thing is your love for Shawn."

They were silent for a few minutes. Finally, Aurum spoke slowly, "Gale.""Yes," Gale replied, nervously clutching the edge of her clothes.She was eager to hear Aurum's answer.Aurum raised his hand, placing it gently on her shoulder. "I wish you a lifetime of happiness.""Aurum..."The disappointment in Gale's eyes deepened. It seemed he chose to end things there. She had no choice but to respect his decision and accept reality."As for me, I'll return to my original life. I'll quietly watch over you. I'll always be there," Aurum continued.Gale froze. She stared at Aurum. She could not understand. What did returning to his original life mean? Did that mean they could still interact like they used to?"Aurum, do you mean..." "Just like before. Do you understand?" Aurum said.Gale continued to stare at him, dumbfounded.Aurum added, "The difference is that we now have an additional bond between us. Gale, you're the true daughter of the Yarn family, my childhood playmate. Ou
