Skeletons Of The Marital Closet Chapter 272
"M-Mr. Wood…" Duphine was shocked to see him, "Gale was the one at fault!"In the company, Shawn was famous for his bad temper.On top of that, there was a rumor amongst the employees that Shawn and Gale's relationship was not a simple one. Duphine thought that she was in trouble, so she quickly shifted the blame.In the first place, Gale had been the one to bump into her!"She bumped into me and caused my coffee to spill. It stained my clothes," Duphine said, "Mr. Wood, I'm just doing what's in my rights to do."Gale was about to explain when Shawn said, "So what if she's the one at fault?"Duphine's eyes widened."I'm still going to protect her," Shawn said, "So what if she bumped into you? Did you lose a limb?""Mr. Wood…"No one expected Shawn to be so protective of Gale!Even if Gale was at fault, he would still stand on Gale's side!Gale was surprised at all.If Shawn really favored someone, there really was no such thing as 'fairness'.He would favor whoever he want

Gale clenched her teeth, "If I killed you, I'd have to compensate with my life! Who'd want to do a losing deal like that?!"He smirked, "You minx."Duphine, who was still on the ground, carefully asked, "Mr. Wood, m-may I go back to work? It's just a small matter, I'm not blaming Gale for anything. I won't take up any more of your valuable time.""Work?" Shawn raised an eyebrow, "From now on, you've been fired.""What?!""You can leave after you get your things."Duphine felt like she had just been struck by thunder. She never expected herself to lose her job just like that!Working at the Wood Group was considered the best career path in Sea City. So many people dreamed about working here, especially with the lucrative salaries!Yet, she was just fired!Right on cue, Fiona was back with the coffee, "Mr. Wood, here."Steam was coming out of the hot coffee.Shawn accepted it and passed it to Gale, "Take it.""What for?"Shawn said, "Pour it on her."Gale was stunned, and D

"Have the guards kick her out," Shawn said, "Never hire her again.""Yes, Mr. Wood."At that moment, the relationship between Gale and Shawn was affirmed int he eyes of the employees.There was definitely something between them!In the break room, they quietly gossiped."Gale really is something else.""That's true. Do you think Mrs. Wood knows?""I heard that Mrs. Wood is cute and soft-spoken. When she called Mr. Wood during a meeting, a lot of people heard her.""Who wouldn't want a man like Mr. Wood!""Shush, they're coming."Summer went to the break room with GAle.Seeing that, the others immediately left, acting like nothing was happening."They must be gossiping about you," Summer said unhappily, "What's Shawn trying to do? Is he trying to ruin your reputation?""Whatever he wants.""Please. If he dares, then he should just admit that you're his wife. What's the point of hiding it?"Gale shook her head, "I don't want it known."There was no way Shawn and her would

In her heart, Aurum was a very well-mannered heir. Darkness and poverty should not be shown in front of his eyes.Gale sighed, "It's possible that the child's father will never find me in my lifetime. I'm too ashamed to see him anyway. I don't know what to tell him."Mr. Lefting, I also want to tell you that my relationship with Shawn isn't that scandalous. I'm not his mistress.""Then you're his…""I'm his puppet. His toy," Gale said, "I can only be controlled by him."Aurum fell silent for a long time after hearing that."I'm really sorry to let you hear all of that," Gale said softly."No, I'm very glad that you're willing to tell me about all this. Gale, you have a lot of secrets on you, and a lot of… relationships that I don't understand."Aurum's gaze had always been very upright and warm.He had a very special feeling towards the girl in front of him.Initially, it was a strange sense of familiarity, as if she was an old friend. After that, it was curiosity and surpr

"Mr. Wood," Aurum stood up, "Ms. Warm and I are just chatting. Don't misunderstand." "What am I misunderstanding?" Shawn raised an eyebrow, and his lips curled up slightly, "She doesn't have the guts to betray me.""Actually, Ms. Warm is a very nice girl."Shawn pulled Gale to his side, putting his arm around her waist as he said calmly, "Of course she is. Otherwise, how would I have my eyes on her?"His actions and tone were incredibly possessive!He was jealous, immensely so, but he tried to act like he did not care!When he crossed the street, Shawn had his eyes on Gale.She was smiling, her smile had been from the heart. It was so sweet and tender. She had never smiled at him like that before!Yet, she was able to smile like that facing Aurum!How could Shawn stomach that?!"Then you should treasure her," Aurum nodded, "I wish the two of you well."It was a sincere wish, but in Shawn's ears, it was nothing like that.It felt like a challenge. As if Aurum could snat

His muscles were hard and tense.Shawn lowered his head,and his lips were next to her ear, "I don't know how to be gentle. All I know is my own ways.""W-what are… your own ways?""A demon's way is obviously violence," Shawn said in a casual tone, but Gale's body was full of goosebumps.She was scared.At that moment, Shawn's eyes seemed to be filled with intense possessiveness!He wanted her!"If I ever see you smile like that to another man again, Gale, then I'll bully you for each time," Shawn licked her earlobes, "I'll make it so you can't even walk!""Shawn, you… Ah!"Before Gale could finish speaking, he pulled forcefully with his hand!She exclaimed, and immediately put her hands in front fo her.Yet, Shawn easily pulled her hands behind her back.Their flesh touched each other closely. "Did you know? Looking at you under the sun and smiling like that, I only had one thought in my mind…" Shawn said slowly, "Just like right now, I want to completely own you."That

Gale felt incredibly helpless and filthy.Her body should have been hers to decide who to give her, but men seemed to take her as they pleased.Shawn panted roughly as he said, "Gale, I won't spare you if I see you smiling at another man again…""I'm the only man you're allowed to look at, understand?!""Answer me!"Gale started to bleed from biting her lips too hard.Seeing that, Shawn pushed her teeth apart and bullied her violently there."Ugh…"Sounds came from Gale's throat uncontrollably.Gale could not believe that those provocative sounds were from here."Yes, Gale," Shawn was incredibly satisfied, "Keep doing that, I want to hear your voice…""Shawn!"Gale completely lost her strength as she was being tortured by Shawn. Gale did not know how long had passed before he got up to leave.Shawn's shirt was not even undone. He was still well-dressed.However, she was completely disheveled…Shawn carefully put on her clothes for her, and even draped his jacket over her

In the end, Gale completely gave up on fighting back. She was sore and lost all her strength, and she was in a complete daze.By the time she lay odeon on the bed and shut her eyes, the sky was already bright outside.Shawn had actually tortured her for an entire night…Looking at the woman who was sound asleep in his arms, Shawn kissed her on the forehead."Gale, you'll only belong to me."It had been a long time since he had touched a girl.Gale's body completely enamored him. He had not wanted to stop, and wanted her over and over again.It had been a long time since he felt like that.The last time was at the hotel. Paula had drugged him, and the drugs had caused him to have relations with Susan.The night he had just spent with Gale actually felt incredibly familiar.It was even better than that night, and caused him to think about it."If you were there that night and not Susan, that would be perfect," Shawn said, "We wouldn't be like this right now."Unfortunately, t

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
