Why does Ivy want her to attend the kick-off ceremony? Does she want to see her? Does she have something to say?Gale sat on the balcony of the master bedroom, gazing into the distance, lost in thought. Suddenly, she sensed someone's presence.Shawn walked over to her, pulled out a chair, and sat down. "What are you staring at?" Gale pushed the invitation toward him. "Take a look."He glanced at it. "I don't really want to go, but Ivy wants me to. I'm considering it," Gale said.Shawn replied lightly, "Go then."She was somewhat surprised. Was he really so readily agreeing to let her go? After all, Shawn had been keeping a close eye on her. In the evenings, they stayed home, accompanying the children, and helping with homework; during the day, when they were together at the company, he constantly messaged her. If she did not reply to him for more than five minutes, he would send someone to find her.Sometimes it was Peach rushing over in a hurry. "Gale, please reply to Mr. Wo
Was he praising her or poking fun at her? Gale was not sure whether to be happy or sad."Why do I need to dress up so nicely? I'm already married. What if some single guys start to fancy me? How do I reject them?" Gale asked."Erm..." Joshua glanced at Shawn. With him around, there were many things he could not say."Well, if some guys like you, it means your charm hasn't faded, and it also proves that Shawn has great taste. He married you while you were still highly sought after! Isn't that right?" Joshua replied.Shawn reached out and grabbed the collar of his shirt, pulling him close. "Stop pretending. What's on your mind?"Joshua blinked his innocent big eyes. "I'm just saying what's on my mind.""Hmm?" Shawn raised an eyebrow. "I'll give you one more chance. Are you sure you don't want to confess to your thoughts?"Faced with the threat, Joshua quickly weighed his options in his mind and chose to come clean. There was no other choice; Shawn was too powerful, and he was stil
"It can be postponed."After some thought, Shawn decided to accompany her. Bodyguards could not guarantee her safety. Joshua was right, with so many male stars on set of all types, surrounding Galey… No, Shawn could not imagine it! Moreover, she was going as Wood Group's first lady, what if someone decided to court her?"That settles it. Let's just consider it as supporting Ivy," Shawn said.Ivy was the only female star under Wood Group, and also the spokesperson for Lovito. That was her first film after she switched companies.Having both Mr. Wood and Mrs. Wood attending the opening ceremony would be the ultimate sign of support. No one in the entertainment industry dared to look down on her. Even if Paul had any evil thoughts, he had to think twice and could not act rashly."Okay, if you want to go, we'll go together." Gale nodded. "There are also many female stars on set, maybe there are some you like."Shawn's voice perked up. "Hmm?""Haha, let's go play badminton, get some
Gale skipped onto the bed and lay on his chest, yawning. "Let's sleep early, we have to wake up early tomorrow.""You're already thinking about sleeping?"Gale shuddered at the thought of what Shawn wanted."There's something important tomorrow. Don't be funny," she said."It's okay, we'll do whatever needs to be done now, it won't affect anything.""I'll be too tired! I'll end up oversleeping!"Shawn hugged her waist and pulled her close. "Then let them delay the ceremony.""Hey..." Before Gale could finish her sentence, Shawn's lips descended upon hers.He had been relentless every night. Gale could not resist. She could not. She worked all day, so she knew that at night, she had to fulfill her duties as a wife. She also understood that Shawn wanted to show her that he did not care about that night. Therefore, Shawn was even more energetic than usual. As a result, Gale could not get out of bed the next day. The alarm had rung three times already."Shawn!" Gale lay in bed,
Every time she appeared in public, she stood by Shawn's side, and she did not need to do anything except smile. Women everywhere took it as a sign of her being treasured and pampered.Reporters surrounded Shawn and Gale, firing questions incessantly."Mr. Wood, why did you choose Ivy as the first female celebrity under your company?""She is representing Lovito. Do you think she is qualified?""Mrs. Wood, when do you plan to have your third child?""Why are you and your wife attending this ceremony? What is the significance of it?" "Will you be venturing into the entertainment industry next?"A barrage of questions was thrown at them.Gale maintained a graceful smile, waving at the cameras. Most of the time, she just stayed by Shawn's side, keeping her head down. He would handle it."Thank you all for your concern." Shawn paused for a moment, then said, "We are considering having a third child."He only answered that question and ignored the rest. Shawn held her hand all the
Aurum walked up to her. "This outfit looks great. Are you ready?"Ivy smiled innocently. "I'm not a newcomer; I've been through many opening ceremonies. What's there to prepare? I just want to finish quickly and start filming."Aurum also smiled. "Yes, but it's my first time filming. I'm not very familiar, and I thought you were the same. My mistake.""Mr. Lefting, you're the investor after all.""I don't like that. Ivy, just call me by my name," Aurum said.Ivy nodded. "Okay, okay, Mr. Aurum has the final say.""Hmm?""You have the final say. Is that okay?" Ivy corrected.Only then did Aurum nod. "Okay. Gale has arrived. Let's go. You should go and say hello to her.""Okay."Ivy adjusted the strands of hair near her ear and walked out. Watching her leave, Aurum's smile deepened. It seemed that Ivy had taken the bait, falling for his kindness toward her. Logically, he should push forward with their relationship. He could not keep being ambiguous, could he? It was almost time
Ivy had a successful career. They felt that if they worked hard, they could get where she was. However, to marry into the richest family in Sea City was a matter of luck and fate. Moreover, to marry and have a doting husband was even rarer. Not only did it require fate, but it also required exceptionally good fortune.Actresses threw glances at Shawn from time to time. They felt he was a remarkable man and yearned to be noticed. Aurum sat beside them, looking immersed in the happenings. However, in reality, he kept an eye on every move Shawn and Gale made. He did this stoically.The ceremony proceeded in an orderly manner. Paul led the crew members out and ended it by handing out gifts to everyone."These are a little token from Mr. Lefting to everyone. We can only pray for a smooth sailing filming." Everyone gets one."Gifting others gifts was seen as a gesture of goodwill, so leading actors would receive the same gift as an extra on the set.Paul handed over the gift. "Ivy, yo
He held onto her tightly and both of them fell to the ground together. Then, there was a loud slam. After that, Ivy heard the muffled groan of pain from the man beside her. The entire machine had crashed onto the man protecting her, but Ivy remained unharmed. She was stunned. However, she did not have much time to react because people around her had already rushed over."Mr. Lefting!""Quick, move the cameras away!""Someone call for help! What are you all standing there for?""If anything happens to Mr. Lefting..."The voices of concern bombarded her ears. However, she only heard the man's breathing. He must be in a lot of pain. The heavy and tall machine had crashed into him. He saved her. Why did he save her?Was it out of instinct? Did he genuinely care for her? Or was he just continuing to act? Acting until he became too immersed in the role and only thought about protecting and taking care of her?At this moment, Ivy's heart was in turmoil. She kept telling herself that Au
