Skeletons Of The Marital Closet Chapter 419
Shawn watched quietly.This was how she was before he appeared in Gale's life.Soft and innocent.Gale had not looked back until she got in the car.She dared not to think about it. Shawn was so determined that he did not want to divorce. It seemed that her plan to escape him was the right plan!She still had a lot to do before she left.On the way, Peter asked, "Gale, there is no one now. Can you tell me honestly what happened to your marriage with Shawn? What did your mother... go through?""Dad..."Peter sighed and said, "Say it, Gale, don't hide it from me. I don't want to be a fool. I want to know about you two."Knowing her father's character, he will pursue the truth to the end.She had no choice but to tell Peter everything that had happened in the past two years.Peter was sobbing after listening to it.Gale comforted, "Dad, actually... It's not as miserable and difficult as you imagined. Look, I'm still doing well now. Those things are over."Peter burst into

"I don't know what you're busy with. The company's affairs are all on my shoulders, and I'm exhausted. I need a raise. Anyway, here is your invitation letter," Joe said."What is it? What Invitation.""It's for our jewelry exhibition. The team running it is world-class in scale, and exhibits from France. As the boss of Lovito, of course, I want to invite you to participate."Shawn took a deep look, casually thrown aside.Joe saw his exhaustion. "What's the matter? Shawn, are you troubled by love again?""Gale's father is not my father's killer."Joe was surprised. "What? Who is it then?"Shawn asked, "Guess who the real murderer is?"Joe coughed. "How can it be so messed up? I can't simply guess and accuse people.""It's okay, just tell me.""To be honest, I think the most suspicious people are your stepmother and younger brother."Shawn raised his eyebrows. "Why do you think it's them?"Joe wiped his neck and answered, "Well, the wealthy family is always fighting for power

Shawn glanced at him deeply and coldly.Joe coughed. "There is basically a deadlock between you and Gale. It is impossible for you to untangle it...you can only resolve it.""Resolve? How?""If you kneel on needles or something, buy the most expensive gift in Sea City or admit your mistakes and apologize, and use loving words to warm her and soften her... To sum it up in one sentence, you must be shameless."Joe became more and more excited as he spoke. "You must warm her when she's cold. You cook for her when she's hungry. You serve her tea and water when she's thirsty and tired and massage her shoulders and legs. A woman cares about such small details.""The last thing is to throw money, a lot of it. Anyway, the most important thing you lack is not money. You need love, right!"After hearing this, Shawn pointed to the door.Joe glanced back. "What's the matter? No one is at the door?""Get out."Joe was speechless.Joe touched his nose resentfully. "I really gave you actual

If he knew, he would not have insomnia every night, let alone stand here, only daring to think about her and not her.Lucas looked at him and said, "I've thought about it. Paula and Zach can be handed over to them to do whatever they want. All other faults and hatreds, please send them my way if they can't forgive us. After all, you want to be with Gale.""Grandpa, how can I leave it alone? I personally did everything that hurt Warm's family.""Gale must hate you very much.""Yes."Lucas stood up with difficulty and patted him on the shoulder. "I know your feelings for Gale very well. Ever since you were young, you had never disobeyed me, let alone fought me. Even when you hate Zach very much, you let him in because of me.""But because of Gale, you repeatedly contradicted me, quarreled, and raised your voice. You didn't even hesitate to cut off contact with me for her sake. Relationships are like that. In your heart, she is too important.""I don't know how long I have left, bu

Lucas was full of sadness. "Shawn, this...""Grandpa, you go back first.""I only have one last thing to ask you. Must she be the one? It can't be other women?" Lucas said.Shawn replied slowly, "I only want Gale, and no one is her, nor can she replace her."Lucas nodded, looking thoughtful, before walking slowly on crutches.Gale stood in the middle of the master bedroom, looked at the room full of things, and finally only took the bag she was carrying with her and packed the most important documents.Clothes, jewelry, skin care products, and luxury goods do not belong to her.When she came to Temperley Hall, she had nothing.When she left, she would not take anything with her.Gale went downstairs with her bag on her back while Shawn was still standing there waiting for her. "Are you really going?""Do you think I'm joking with you?"She walked straight past him with a gust of wind, her dress fluttering.Her waist tightened when she was about to reach the door, and Shawn

"But you can't bear it! You are selfish, only care about yourself, and never think about me! Abortion greatly impacts a woman's body, but you take light of the situation. After the abortion, you just want me to get pregnant again."Shawn gulped. "Gale, I am sorry..."She interrupted him. "I don't want to hear these three words! The most useless thing in the world is the word sorry!"She raised her hand and removed Shawn's fingers one by one.She could feel the thin calluses on his fingertips.After pulling his hand away, Gale turned around. "Since I'm about to move out, let's make it clear once and for all. Shawn, don't have any hope between us...!"He looked at her fixedly. Although the deep pain in his eyes was well concealed, she could still see it at a glance."Even if you treat me well in the future and give me the whole Wood Group and make all the women in Sea City envy me, I won't be touched in the slightest!"Shawn asked softly, "I am moved by everything you do. Can't y

Like an elf, Gale disappeared into the night and gradually faded away.Shawn was left standing alone.The divorce agreement…He suddenly turned around, ran upstairs three steps at a time, and searched through boxes and cabinets in the master bedroom.Finally, in the bottom drawer, he found the divorce agreement.Gale signed it.Her handwriting was crooked, as if she was signing while trembling.After staring at it for a few seconds, Shawn tore it in half, and then in half… until it could not be torn."Sign it? I destroy it and throw it away. This agreement will no longer exist, and you are still my Mrs. Wood."Although he was deceiving himself and others by doing this, Shawn crouched weakly and sat on the soft carpet.There was no shortage of furnishings and things in the master bedroom. Even the skin care products that Gale used in the morning and evening were still there, and she forgot to put the bottle cap on.However, she had already left.She did not want any of these

They are the wealthiest family in Sea City, with hundreds of billions of assets.They held the economic lifeline of the whole city.With such a status, no matter how exclusive the exhibition was, they could participate in it, and they were treated as VIPs."Think about it, I won't force you. To go or not to go, the choice is yours," Joe said.Going meant that she would be attending with Shawn.If she did not, she would regret it for the rest of her life.The jewelry exhibition was held every three years, and each session was held in a different city. It was rare to be right at her doorstep—what a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.Seeing Gale's hesitant look, Joe said deliberately, "That's to go to see the exhibition. The venue is so big, and you will not always be next to Shawn. Look at your jewelry design, which is comparable to internationally renowned designs. Just treat it as a learning excursion."He looked at his watch. "I still have a meeting to attend. Take the invitation

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
