Skeletons Of The Marital Closet Chapter 206
She looked at the corner of her bitten lips in the mirror and cursed Shawn deeply in her heart.'Is this man a dog?''He likes to bite!'Before going to bed, Gale put on her earphones and listened to Susan's movements.Susan's life was quite vapid. She was either shopping or drinking afternoon tea. There is no useful information.Gale fell asleep after listening to it because it was too boring.Unexpectedly, Susan came to Temperley Hall early in the morning the next day.Gale was woken up by the sound in the earphones.Susan squeezed her throat and whimpered, "Mr. Wood, you're up, I tried to call you."Gale was stunned for a few seconds before she got up and took off her earphones.She had to dawdle before going out. She did not want to see that woman, so she should stay away.In the master bedroom, Shawn looked at Susan while wearing his shirt, frowning. "Who let you in?"She said, "The housekeeper said you were here, so I'll come. Could it be... Mr. Wood, don't you want t

The dean held Susan's hand and kept admiring it. "How much is this worth... It is also a symbol of Mr. Wood's heart, a treasure that even Gale doesn't have!"These words made her feel a little better, but she could not help but complain about Shawn's attitude toward her.Dean comforted her, "Maybe there is something wrong with Mr. Wood, so you're upset. Don't always frown because of the little things. Look, the current situation is still in our favor!""What? Dad, Gale's child has been around for so long, and we haven't gotten rid of it yet, it's really an evil child!" Every time Gale's misfortune turns into good luck!"This kind of thing can't come in a hurry. I didn't expect that you'd already come this far, dragged Gale to roll down together, and yet her child was safe and sound... She does have good luck," Dean replied.Susan folded her arms. "Anyway, no matter how much she apologizes, I won't forgive her unless her child is gone. As long as I don't give up and cry to Mr. Wood

"Only a big-hearted man can tolerate her."Gale blinked. "Mr. Winter's heart is quite big. Why don't you try?"Joe said, "Stop there. I am young and suave. I don't want a woman to tie me up early.""Don't miss it... When the time comes, Summer will be taken by someone, and you may regret it!""Why will I regret it?" Joe said so, but he quickly walked to Summer very unhappily."Hey, where did you get the flowers?" he asked.Summer looked at him and answered, "None of your business?""You're supposed to be working. Why are you parading?"Summer's face is inexplicable. "I happened to be at the company's front desk, and I didn't run around the company with flowers."Joe frowned. "Who gave it to you?""I..." She was about to answer when she snorted again. "Does it matter? What matters is how good-looking and vibrant this bunch of sunflowers is."He said disdainfully, "The man who sends this kind of flowers has no taste. ""Yes, yes, how can he be tasteful like you?""Summer, yo

The appearance of Aurum, to her, was like this bunch of flowers.Bright.It was his light that saved her when she was at her darkest.Night fell.Gale dragged her tired body back to Temperley Hall. After washing up, she put on her headphones as usual.Susan's voice rang.While listening, she casually drew the design draft on the paper with a pencil.Until the dean's voice sounded from the earphones, Gale stopped the pen in his hand instantly.She listened intently for fear that she had missed a word.The conversation lasted only a short time, half an hour.It completely exposed the whole thing that their father and daughter arranged and planned, Gale was innocent from beginning to end and was framed by them!What was more important was that Gale grasped the two most important sentences… "Anyway, she doesn't know whose child it is.""I'm a normal person, and yet I've been in pain for several days, but she's a pregnant woman, and it's like nothing happened."Gale did not

She could not wait for another second!Looking at her clear eyes, Shawn's heartbeat seemed to miss a beat.In front of him, Gale rarely showed such an expression.Expectation, hope, smart and beautiful.She was so looking forward to seeing him.Shawn's mood improved involuntarily, and he did not even realize that the corners of his lips were raised.Even his voice softened. "Looking for me?"Gale nodded. "Yes. Why did you return so late? Are you working overtime in the company?""Well, I had a meeting."Gale stretched out her hand and pulled at the corner of his clothes. "I have something to tell you. Do you have time now?"Shawn could not resist her.Sure enough... men loved girls who were gentle, well-behaved, and coquettish.Shawn had always been rational, but after a brief dizziness, he slowly calmed down.He looked down at her hand."Uh... I'm sorry." Gale withdrew his hand and smoothed the corner of his clothes. "I'm a little excited."Thinking that she was about t

He took out a cigarette and was about to light it when Susan stopped him. "Mr. Wood, smoking isn't good for your health. Besides, we still plan to have another child. In order to prepare, don't smoke."He frowned slightly.Seeing that he was unhappy, Susan said quickly, "But you are busy with work, and you are under a lot of pressure. It's okay to smoke one every now and then." As she spoke, she took the initiative to get a lighter and help him light it.However, Shawn was not in the mood to smoke any more.Susan's words made him unhappy.Did he promise to give him a child now?Susan was stunned and said, "Mr. Wood… did I say something wrong?"His expression became cold. "It's nothing. It's Gale who wanted to call you here.""Gale?""Yes, it's me." Gale nodded. "Susan, you just had a miscarriage, and you are already thinking about getting pregnant. You must be in a hurry.""This is between Shawn and me. None of your business.""I just wanted to remind you to give your body

Her fake pregnancy and miscarriage had been a secret, and very few people knew about it!At the hospital, her father had deliberately paid everyone off to keep their mouths shut… How did Gale know?Did someone betray her?No, it's impossible. Gale did not have the financial resources to find out!Therefore, Susan will not admit to it, no matter what!"Mr. Wood, don't listen to her!" Susan turned to look at Shawn. "She's a lunatic, she's been in a mental hospital for two years, and she's already lost her mind. You mustn't trust her!"Shawn's gaze was deep, and his eyes dark, making it impossible to see what he was thinking.His silent treatment made Susan a little overwhelmed.She had a guilty conscience, but now she was even more helpless. "Mr. Wood, you...you must believe me! You can investigate. Ask the hospital and the doctor instead of listening to Gale's one-sided story!"Seeing that Shawn had not spoken, Susan hurried over, but because she was too scared, her legs went w

She forgot that the person in front of her was Shawn.He could see through her.It was impossible for a person, who was innocent, to act like that."Susan, do you have anything to refute what Gale said?" Shawn's voice was cold to the bone."Mr. Wood, I..I...""No response?"Susan was so nervous that she stammered, "Mr. Wood, she, this, this... me, me..."Shawn bent down slightly. His eyes were like knives. "Answer!" The voice was deafening, echoing throughout the house.Gale said while the iron was still hot, "Susan, you can also go to the hospital for an examination without saying anything. If I slander you, when the examination results come out, the truth will naturally come out!"Susan screamed, "Shut up! Gale, you b*tch!""It seems that you still dare not."Gale was absolutely in control.When she heard the recording, she was actually very worried. What should she do if she made a mistake in her judgment and 'a normal person' were just normal phrases?However, she had

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
