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
Shawn did not answer."Alright, I want to personally witness Susan's world completely crumbling in her eyes! Everything she took from me, she'll pay it back many times over!""And you." Gale looked at Shawn and said, "You should be in ten thousand times more pain than me! If the child were still here, we would clearly still have a chance at reconciliation…"All there was left at that moment was just hatred and pain.Gratitude and resentment, love and hatred, right and wrong…In the end, the most innocent one had been that unborn child."Why do you… toy with me like this? In the end, I was wrong the whole time," Shawn mumbled to himself.Shawn turned around, facing his back to Gale.At that moment, he did not dare to face Gale.The pain in his heart, the anger, and the self-resentment; the only thing he could do was to accept it slowly.He deserved it. He did it to himself!Gale had already run out of tears. She found that it was hard even to cry when a person was at the limi
Susan finally reacted, nodding. "That's right. You're already so old. Could it be that you can't even tell the difference?!"The father and daughter pair felt an intense sense of danger.Why would Mr. Wood suddenly ask the old man to point out something like that for no reason?!They could not let Mr. Wood discover that Gale had been the woman from that night… Otherwise, everything they had done during that period of time, everything they managed to get, would go up in smoke. They would lose everything!The old man was stunned.Shawn grabbed his collar even more forcefully. "Do you know who you should be listening to?"His eyes were incredibly sharp, and the old man was afraid of who he was, so the old man nodded. "Of course, Mr. Wood. I'll listen to you. I'll naturally obey whatever you ask for!""Then answer me, was it her or her?!"Susan wanted to say something, but Shawn shot a look, and the guards immediately understood, walking forward to cover her mouth.Gale looked at
Saying that, the dean suddenly had a thought and hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, you're right. It was all my plan! Mr. Wood, I had Susan do all of this. Don't blame her. It's all my fault!"Even at that moment, the dean still hoped that he could protect Susan.Yet, it was pointless.Shawn was as cold as ice. "Since you want to admit your wrongdoings so much, I'll grant you your wish.""Mr. Wood…"Shawn had a cruel smirk on his lips. "You can go back to the mental hospital. However, you can forget about being the dean. You're going back as a patient."The dean widened his eyes!He had acted like a king at the mental hospital for so long, and he had offended so many of the patients inside.If he went inside, he would be skinned alive. They would eat him alive!They would not even leave behind any bones!Shawn said, "Take him away. Also, cripple his limbs!""Yes, Mr. Wood."The dean cried out in agony as his whole body shuddered. His pants started to drip.He had been so scared he
