Skeletons Of The Marital Closet Chapter 254
Shawn was there to cut ties.Joe was right. Since he had no feelings for Susan and only gratitude, he should have cut ties quickly.Love was love.Gratitude was gratitude.If he wanted things to last long with Gale, Susan needed to disappear.Susan could not believe her ears. "Mr. Wood, you want to chase me away?""You'll get what you want. Tell me all your requests. I'll agree to it all."Money and assets were all unimportant things to Shawn.He would give whatever Susan wanted to her.It was what Susan deserved.Paula would have gotten what she wanted if Susan had not been there that night."No, no, I don't want anything. All I want is you. Mr. Wood, I don't want the house, and I don't want any money. Just let me stay by your side… I can't lose you," Susan said while frantically shaking her head.Susan did not know how the situation ended up like that.After the fake pregnancy was exposed, Shawn was furious. She knew that, so she had constantly been apologizing.With Ga

He had started to miss her.That was despite the fact that his hand had almost been crippled because of her!Susan refused to relent. "My conditions are to stay by your side. Mr. Wood, I don't want anything else!"She was no id*ot.She needed the chicken to lay the eggs.Materialistic gains were all eggs. Once she asked, she would get no more.If she stayed by Shawn's side, she would always get whatever she wanted!"Okay," Shawn said suddenly.Susan was stunned for a moment before she said happily, "Mr. Wood, I knew you still loved me!""If you don't want it, then I guess you don't want anything. I'll agree to it. Move out tomorrow," Shawn said."What?""I respect your wishes. You said you didn't want anything yourself." Shawn got up and started to walk out.He did not have the time to waste on this."Mr. Wood, Mr. Wood!" Susan panicked and hurriedly pulled at him. "I…I really do love you…"Shawn asked her directly, "Is there something you want?"Susan clenched her teeth

She acted like he was not there."I haven't eaten yet," Gale said."Oh."He frowned. "Can't you show some consideration?"He had been busy with work and dealing with Susan's affairs. After that, he hurried over to see her…She did not seem happy about it at all."There are many women who would be considerate toward you. There are plenty of women who would do anything for you. Why would you ask me for something I won't give you?" Gale said.She was the only one who would dare to rebuke Shawn like that.The servants overheard their conversation and were too scared to even breathe. The servants quietly produced a new set of cutlery.Shawn ate in an elegant manner.Even his appetite was better by her side.Gale suddenly thought of something and said, "Oh, that's right. Let's get a divorce." His hand suddenly stopped as his expression darkened at a noticeable pace."I don't have my child anymore, so your family won't look at me favorably anymore. You can marry Susan now. Our m

"Gale!"She laughed and said, "I wanted to show you that what you give is never what I want. You're never able to give me the things that I want."Even if Shawn agreed to release her father because he loved her, Gale would not accept it.What she wanted was for her father to have true freedom. She wanted him to be clear of any crimes.She did not want her father to be released without an explanation because of Shawn's love.Shawn pulled at his tie as he gulped.He could not give her what she wanted?What a joke!He was at the peak of power. He could get anything he wanted. How could he not be able to give Gale what she wanted?!Yet, he could not!"Be good, Gale. Give me some conditions that I'll agree to. It'll only be good for you. Don't try to take the world in one day," Shawn said.Gale lowered her gaze and replied, "I'm not full yet. I want to eat.""Have someone buy a new meal.""I want to leave the hospital. I want to go back to the company to work," Gale said."Of

She only had a hospital gown on. He could easily open her buttons!"You're really something else," Shawn said after sucking on her lips, "How alluring can you be?"Every time he kissed her, Shawn would need a cold shower to return his body temperature to normal.That time was naturally no exception.Gale put her hand on his chest. "Stop messing around. This isn't somewhere you can satisfy your libido!"It was a hospital ward!She had just gone through an abortion!Shawn looked at her and said, "There's still plenty of time. I'm in no hurry. There will be plenty of chances in the future."Gale answered resolutely, "There won't be any chances in the future. We'll get a divorce.""As long as I refuse, you'll never be able to leave me.""Shawn! Y…You're shameless!"He grabbed onto her waist, pulling her harder toward him.He said into her ear, "Not only that, Gale. I want you to submit to me too willingly.""Never going to happen!""It'll happen one day."Shawn's finger sudd

He was actually squeezing into such a small bed with her!How was he not embarrassed?!He was a hundred and eighty centimeters tall. He could not even straighten his legs! "Shawn, get up!" Gale tried to push his arms away. "Who wants to sleep on the same bed as you?!"His eyes were shut, and he said sleepily, "Are you asking me to sleep on the floor?""Go back to your big mansion!""You're not there. I'm not going."Gale was speechless again.The bed was only a meter wide. With two adults on the bed, even turning around was difficult.All she could do was lean into Shawn's embrace. That was one thing. Even more embarrassing was the fact that any slight movement would cause the bed to creak.It could not stand the weight of two people.Gale pointed and said, "G…Go sleep on the sofa! Or I can sleep there."Otherwise, she was probably not getting a good night's sleep that night.She tried to get up as she said that, but Shawn's hand pushed down on her stomach. "Sleep, don'

Wendy looked at her. "Am I dreaming? Are you really here?"Gale held her hand and said, "I'm really here, Mom. I came to see you. I miss you so much."Only in front of her mother would she act like a little girl. Only then could she be herself, not needing to be strong."Gale…" Wendy's tears constantly fell."Mom, why are you crying? Aren't I fine?"Wendy sat up from the bed. "You stupid child. You only ever tell me the good things. How much have you suffered before?"Gale bit her lips. "Mom, everything will be better."Susan had been there before and had told Wendy all about Gale. Both of them knew exactly what had been going on.However, neither of them brought it up.What would come from doing that? Were they supposed to hug each other and cry?"I know you want to make me happy, but…" How could Shawn ever treat her well?! The most important thing for a woman was her purity and her marriage. Both of those had been destroyed by Shawn!"Mom, let's not talk about all of

The nurse led Gale into the doctor's office. They explained Wendy's condition and treatment method in detail.The special pill caused thousands for just one, and they issued a whole box in one go!What Gale did not know was the fact that Susan had slipped into the ward when Gale was at the doctor's office!Wendy was in a deep sleep, but Susan did not hesitate to shake her rudely. "Hey, old lady, wake up! Stop sleeping!"When Wendy did not react, she violently pinched Wendy on the hand. "You're still in the mood to sleep. Your grandchild's already dead. The grandchild that should have been loved for his whole life!"Wendy hissed as the pinch woke her up."It's you?" Wendy jumped in fright when she saw Susan. "W…Why are you here again? Nurse, nurse!"Wendy wanted to call someone over to chase Susan away.That woman was not good news!"Haha, it's not like I'll do anything to you. I'm just here for a chat. Last time, I think the two of us had a good talk," Susan said.Wendy stare

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
