First came a loud noise that was mixed in with the honk of a car. After that, the dean's voice was heard, "Susie, you look like you're in quite a good mood. What happened?""Something amazing happened. Gale practically sabotaged herself!"Gale's hand stopped, planning on listening to what was happening and what Susan and the dean were talking about.She would listen to the recording from that day after that.She completely focused on listening.The dean asked, "Really? Tell me about it!""Mr. Wood has been liking her more and more lately. After getting rid of her child, he wanted another one with her. It ended up great. Gale actually went to buy some morning-after pills, unwilling to get pregnant! I happened to catch her in the act!""Wow, is that true?!"Susan seemed incredibly pleased with herself, "It's true! I planned on looking for Mr. Wood today to ask him for forgiveness so I could see how his attitude was towards me. I can't believe I bumped into something so amazing!"
"Thankfully, you managed to steal that place away from Gale. That's why we can live a life of luxury right now."Susan smiled and said, "It's because you're so good with your plans. It's thanks to your schemes that we're in this position now.""Whatever, we shouldn't talk about this so much. We absolutely can't let anyone else know," The dean answered, "Susie, you should go ask Mr. Wood when he'll send you the money. I'll only be able to relax when the money's in our hands.""Okay, dad. I'll ask as soon as I can. There's also those houses…"Gale was in no mood to listen to what followed.Her whole head was filled with the fact that her child was Shawn's. What they said constantly echoed in her ears.At that moment, Gale did not know what to think. She merely stared forward in a daze.How could the child be Shawn's?She did not want to believe it.Yet, the dean and Susan had said it themselves. There wa sno way it was wrong.Even if she did not want to believe it, the truth wa
She could already guess what was said after that.Susan would definitely have told her mother about her miscarriage and how she had one. Susan would have told her mother about how miserable Gale's life was, continuing to antagonize her mother.So Susan had told her mother the truth.Her mother could not stand such a cruel truth, which was how her mother fell unconscious, needing emergency treatment.Even Gale could not accept the truth, let alone her mother.She put down the headphones and carefully kept them.The weather was great outside, the sun shone brightly. Yet, Gale's heart was completely cold.She walked out of the Wood Group headquarters. The warm sunlight fell on her body, but it could not warm her heart.Gale felt like a walking corpse.She never would have expected that the man from that night was Shawn.The child in her had actually been part of the Wood family's bloodline.It was completely absurd, but it was the irrefutable truth!Gale looked at the passersb
She reluctantly looked at her mother on the bed as she exited the room."Your mother's current condition is quite stable," The doctor said, "If nothing unexpected happens, she can be transferred to the regular wards next week.""What if something happens?""Then…""I'm sorry, I'm being too negative," Gale answered, "If it goes smoothly, how much can my mother recover?"The doctor thought about it, "The patient's already quite old. On top of that, she didn't have the special medicine early on, so the effects were diminished. It's quite hopeful if she properly recuperates in the future."Gale nodded.The phone in her pocket was constantly buzzing, but she never bothered to look at it.At that moment, she did not want to talk to anyone.Gale walked out of the nursing home, and just as she was about to hail a taxi, a Mercedes drove over.It looked a little familiar.She stopped and looked at the car.The car stopped, and the people who got out of the car were actually…Lucas a
"Lucas, Gale's no ordinary woman, but the paternity test showed that the child really was Shawn's. It's just a pity… Ah, it's gone now, there's no point talking about it."Gale finally understood why Paula suddenly calmed down after the test, and no longer caused so much trouble.Gale had always thought that Summer had stolen the test tube, making it so the test could not be done.She did not expect that the paternity test was actually done, and Paula completely shut up because the child was Shawn's!"Enough, go check on Wendy's condition," Lucas said, "I want to talk to Gale."Paula nodded as she left reluctantly.It was obvious that Lucas wanted her gone. He wanted to talk about some secrets that Paula was not allowed to know.Once Paula left, Lucas said, "Gale, I didn't come today to do anything to your mother. Instead, I cam to help you both.""I don't understand.""I'll be honest with you," Lucas said, "Shawn is completely obsessed with you right now. He listens to no one
The calls went through, but no one answered them.It caused Shawn to worry.His her parents in his hands, he knew that Gale would not there to run away. He was just worried that she was in danger, that something happened to her.However, no one would dare to touch his girl in Sea City!Shawn had his hands behind his back as he constantly paced back and forth with a dark look on his face.Time slowly passed.Shawn grabbed his phone again and called Gale's number.The ringtone was suddenly heard from the door.He looked up to see Gale walking in."Where did you go?!" Shawn stared at her, "Why didn't you answer the phone?!"Gale merely looked into his eyes quietly.She was acting a little strange."Gale, speak," Shawn walked in front of her, "What happened to you?" Gale looked emotionless, and her eyes looked dead.Shawn started to panic as he pursed his lips, "I'll be able to find out even if you don't say anything!"He reached out to take her phone, but she did not stop
"What exactly happened to you?" Shawn asked, "If something happened, tell me. Stop crying. It's unbecoming!"Gale sniffed and said, "I'll tell you, it's just that I don't know where to start.""Tell me the first thing that comes to mind!"Gale wiped her tears haphazardly. "Shawn, what happened between you and Susan?""Why are you asking that?""Answer me." Gale looked him in the eyes. "It's very important."Shawn averted his gaze. "I'll deal with what happened between the two of us. You don't have to bother."As he said that, he turned around to leave.Gale grabbed his sleeve, continuing, "I know, even if you don't want to say it. The night before you came to get me from the mental hospital, something happened between you and Susan in a hotel, right?"Shawn's gaze turned sharp. "How do you know this?"Gale continued, "That night, you were drugged. You were alone in your room when Susan suddenly barged in, running away from someone. In the darkness, you slept together.""The
"So, so…The child in your belly…" Shawn said in a hoarse voice.Gale answered hopelessly, "It was yours! Shawn, it was your child. It was our child!"He looked like he had been violently punched as he staggered. He could not maintain his balance as he knelt down on the ground with a thud, slamming his fists on the ground violently. His child…What did he do?!"That night with you was the only time I've been touched. I've always been completely clean other than that! I wanted that child so much. I did everything I could to protect the child, to bring the child to this world… Yet, Shawn, what did you do?! How did you hurt the two of us?!" Gale said."I jumped into the lake, and the child was fine. Susan tried to harm me, pushing me down the stairs, and the child was fine. Disaster after disaster, the child and I managed to survive all of them. Who would have expected that, in the end, the child would die because of you!"Gale shouted in a heartbroken tone, "Shawn, you killed our
