Skeletons Of The Marital Closet Chapter 403
When she looked up and saw that the person in front of her was Shawn, she screamed again. "Ah!!!"Shawn just glanced at her coldly."When did you arrive? Why don't you make a sound as you walk?!" Summer asked.As long as Shawn heard a word she just muttered just now, it would be over!Summer waited in fear for Shawn's answer.Fortunately, Shawn just asked, "How is Gale?"He looked haggard, with blue stubble on his chin, and his voice was very hoarse.He looked like he stayed up all night and did not sleep all night."In… in the operating room. No… no news yet," Summer replied stammeringly.Shawn frowned deeply and looked at the two closed doors with worried eyes.As soon as he got the news, he rushed over immediately.That night, he stayed in the hotel, watching the surveillance cameras of the house repeatedly.He did not rush here until he heard that Gale had entered the hospital.How did she have an accident?Seeing Shawn's deep silence and calm expression, Summer was

Dr. Lighton was really convincing.Moreover, it was because of a miscarriage that Gale was so weak physically, and he blamed himself even more.The nurse pushed the hospital bed out. Shawn was about to step forward, but Summer hurriedly stopped him. "Hey, don't get close. You are a family member. Go and complete the hospitalization paperwork. What are you standing around for?"Shawn could only look at Gale from a distance.He would need to complete the paperwork before coming to accompany her.Seeing Shawn's figure disappear at the end of the corridor, Summer hurriedly asked, "Is the child safe?""Well, I'm here, don't worry.""Of course, with my senior's superb medical skills, even a barren woman can become pregnant!"Dr. Lighton could not laugh or cry. "Stop praising me so much."Summer laughed. "Anyway, it's right to praise you. Will Gale's child be born smoothly?" Dr. Lighton's expression suddenly became serious.He lowered his voice, "The situation is a bit complicated

This explanation convinced Shawn, and he did not continue to ask.Gale breathed a sigh of relief and quickly changed the subject, "Why are you here? Where is Summer?""She's back to the company, and I'll be with you. Is there anything else you feel uncomfortable about? Call Dr. Lighton," Shawn replied.He rang the bell.Dr. Lighton came in in a white coat, elegantly."Mrs. Wood, your menstrual period is usually irregular, isn't it? Fortunately, you were sent to the hospital in time. Before the next menstrual period, remember to take medicine in advance to relieve the pain," Dr. Lighton said.Gale blinked and understood Dr. Lighton's meaning almost immediately."Yes, every time I have it, it hurts like hell. In addition, the miscarriage hurt my body, and now the pain is even worse.""This is not curable. Yes, it can only be relieved. Try both Eastern and Western medicine. However, Eastern medicine is very bitter. Can you take it?"Gale replied, "No matter how bitter it is, I wi

He was holding a bowl of Eastern medicine.As soon as he entered the door, Gale smelled the smell of medicine, and her stomach suddenly churned.She immediately bent over and leaned over the bedside to retch.Shawn walked quickly to her side and patted her on the back.After two or three minutes, Gale slowly stopped retching. When she looked up, she found that Shawn's eyes were looking at him… somewhat complicatedly.She felt guilty, dared not look back at him for long, and immediately moved away."Gale, your appearance reminds me of when you were pregnant. At that time, you would retch like this almost every day," Shawn said.Gale immediately explained, "Every time I smell that medicine, I feel sick.""I know you are still on your period. How could you possibly have a child."After a few seconds of pause, Shawn added in a low voice, "Although I really hope that you are already pregnant."Gale just pretended she did not hear it.Shawn picked up a spoonful of the medicine and

"Okay, I'll give it to you," Shawn replied deeply."The sooner, the better."She really could not afford to wait.She must leave Sea City as soon as possible, find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, and take care of her baby.Once Shawn found out that she was pregnant, not only would she not be able to leave, but the child would be left in the Wood family to be raised as an heir.Gale did not want glory and wealth, and she only wanted her child to be safe and happy!How terrible was the idea of miscarriage?In Wood Mansion.Paula was still drinking tea leisurely when Zach ran in with a panicked face.Zach pulled her up. "Mom, something has happened, something has happened, hurry up. Let's run away together. We can't stay here any longer!"Paula said inexplicably, "What's the matter? Hey hey, slow down. My old bones can't take it!""If you slow down, you won't be able to walk!""Why are you leaving? Where are you going?" Paula asked.Zach walked hastily. "Don't as

What an idiot son she raised!Paula screamed, "Zach! You can casually say something so important? Didn't I warn you before that you must never say anything until death with the knife resting on your neck?""I thought I was going to die at the time, and my father came to claim my life...""What! You are suspicious of everything all day long! You are good for nothing!" Paula said fiercely. She slapped Zach across the face.She had always been soft on her precious son and was extremely angry to be willing to beat him.Shawn watched coldly, watching the funny performance of the mother and son.Lucas coughed and walked toward them, leaning on a cane. "What's the commotion? You guys are making a lot of noise here, and I can't sleep peacefully."Paula also knelt down with a plop. "Lucas!""Grandpa, save me. You must save me!" Zach hurriedly crawled toward him. "I am your grandson!" Lucas sighed.He thought that Shawn was putting pressure on the mother and son again.Lucas said, "S

"Ridiculous! He has been thinking about you two! The day before the car accident, he was still discussing giving you half of the shares of the Wood Group!"Both Paula and Zach were shocked.What?"That's right. Father called me into the study that night and asked me to give half of the shares to Zach," Shawn said.Zach was dumbfounded. "Dad… asked you to give the shares? Half?""Yes, it was for you. It's a pity you killed him. You can't get anything," Shawn said."No, it's impossible. You lied to me. That's not the case..."Paula shook his head again and again, "We all heard that he wouldn't give it!" Lucas tapped his cane vigorously. "He said it in a fit of anger! Who knew that you really believed it!" The mother and son were like deflated balls and looked at each other.After working so hard, they had not expected that they would lose more than they gained!Shawn said lightly, "If our father didn't die, with his insistence, Zach, you would get the shares you dreamed of.

He collapsed on the ground, and soon, a puddle of water flowed out from where he was lying.Zach was so frightened that he wet his pants.Shawn snorted coldly. "The biggest mistake of the Wood family is having such an idiot like you!" He was an embarrassment to the Wood family!The Wood family, noble, proud, confident, and in control of everything, had always been superior!What about Zach?Useless, dandy, and only knew how to play with women!"Are you scared? It's just the beginning, Zach... There are new punishments waiting for you every month!" Shawn snorted coldly.Zach was already motionless, and his eyes were empty.Paula kept crying and shouting, "It's all my fault. I ordered him to do it...you come at me, take my life, don't blame Zach! I'm an evil woman. Kill me!""Noisy. It's too noisy."Paula was still crying, and the sound of wailing spread throughout the old house.Shawn directly ordered, "Cut her tongue."Upon hearing this sentence, Paula immediately stopped

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
Skeletons Of The Marital Closet Chapter 2049
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
