Skeletons Of The Marital Closet Chapter 499
Natalie said, "I've seen the pictures. But that was when I was young. A long time has passed, and I can't really remember."Natalie did not want to mention that anymore and changed the topic. "Mrs. Wood, you're an important person. You shouldn't get too close to Aurum. Otherwise, it wouldn't be good for you if Mr. Wood finds out."Gale smiled faintly. "Ms. Yarn, you must be really scared of losing Mr. Lefting.""I love him. Of course, I'd be worried about losing him!"Gale shook her head. "No, I feel like you're more afraid of losing your status as the Yarn family's heiress."Everything hidden in Natalie's heart had been exposed by Gale.It felt incredibly bad! Natalie was panicking!How did Gale figure it out?!Gale softly said, "Honestly, what's yours will be yours. No one can take it away. What doesn't belong to you will leave no matter how tightly you hold on to it. You must not have slept well these years.""Stop talking about it!" Natalie bit her lower lip. "Whether or n

Shawn walked toward the ward.When he was about to see Gale, he felt a bit complicated.The past few days, he had only dared to sneak into the ward deep in the night. He would look at her sleep and silently keep her company.When the sun was almost up, he would leave.He had already done that for a few days. Shawn felt like seeing Gale when she was awake was such a luxury.Standing in front of the door, he did not hear anything inside, which gave him the courage to push open the door.Summer suddenly called out to him. "Hey, hey, why are you here?""I came to see her.""She doesn't want to see you. I just asked Dr. Lighton. Gale's been recovering quite well. What if she ends up getting so angry everything goes backward when she sees you?!" Summer said directly.The words were rude, but the meaning was true.The person Gale wanted to see the least was Shawn.However…"She still has a long life ahead. There's no way she can avoid seeing me her whole life," Shawn said."That'

Even if she were dreaming, she should have said 'you' instead of 'you guys'!Shawn's eyebrows were tightly wrinkled.He took his hand back and looked at Gale without blinking, wondering.He could not understand her sleep talk.Maybe because Shawn's gaze was too intense and focused, Gale felt like someone was staring at her and slowly opened her eyes.As soon as she opened her eyes and before she could react, she was met with Shawn's deep eyes.The two of them stared at each other."Shawn?" Gale felt she was not fully awake, rubbing her temples. "Are you actually here? Or am I still dreaming?""Gale, you just said something in your sleep."She stopped rubbing her temples, and her expression became unnatural.Gale knew she had a habit of talking in her sleep, which she could not control.The little kids with delicate features, chubby, with watery eyes, were adorable to look at!She had no idea what she said unconsciously and what Shawn heard!Would he doubt her?"Oh, yes."

He never wanted to argue with her.However, there was so much hatred and misunderstanding between them that it was impossible to communicate properly.Now that she was willing to initiate a peaceful coexistence, Shawn naturally agreed."Let's negotiate calmly." Gale's fingertips moved gently on his palm, but her eyes were clear as she looked at him. "We've been arguing for so long without any results. Let's try a different way of communicating."Shawn's heart sank."So, you still want to... divorce me?" he asked.Gale nodded.Shawn turned his hand over and held it tightly.How could he remain calm when she brought up the divorce? How could he avoid arguing and not be emotional?However, Gale was soft and gentle, with a soft expression. She spoke in a gentle voice, "Divorce is the final release. Shawn, we started on the wrong foot, and we shouldn't continue this mistake."Her voice was so soft and low that even if Shawn was the most furious he had ever been would calm down.

Gale caressed his cheek repeatedly as if wanting to engrave him in her heart. "Let me go first, then forget me... okay?""No ""Do you know the consequences if you continue to forcibly keep me here?"Shawn's pupils shrank as he grabbed her wrist. "Gale, you are not allowed to do stupid things!""I have done too many stupid things. I also committed suicide in front of you. Shawn, I will die if it means leaving you. At that time, you can keep me, but the only thing you keep is my corpse," she replied.Shawn said, words word by word, "I won't let you die! Without my permission, you can't die!""Then try me."Shawn stared at her deeply, wanting to threaten her, but suddenly panicked and pulled her into his arms."No, Gale, don't punish me like this!" He buried his head in her neck. "I really can't live without you!"He was scared.Gale jumped into the lake in front of him.She also picked up a fruit knife and stabbed her heart in front of him.Every time she begged to die, she

Aurum's plan has been perfected to the last step; everything was in place, and they just needed a push of luck.Aurum had done what he should, and the rest was up to Gale."Forget it?" Shawn naturally believed it. "Gale, can you really forget it?""Otherwise? I am surrounded by your people everywhere, and you even arranged for Pearton to monitor me 24 hours a day, I can't escape your clutches at all." As she spoke, she laid back on the hospital bed again, becoming lazy and ignoring him.Gale felt it was a waste of saliva and time, so she was a little sullen.However, that was what men do.The more you ignored him, the more he would lean in.He knew Gale was angry, but her sullen look made his heart soften."I'll give you whatever you want." Shawn's big hand landed on top of her head. "Also, I will arrange for my father-in-law to return to work in the hospital and return to his previous post.""Oh," Gale said, still looking listless."Move back. I've redecorated the master bed

"Babies, Mommy will take you away soon."After leaving the ward, Shawn's face quickly darkened, and his whole body exuded hostility, pushing everyone away."Pearton.""Yes, Mr. Wood.""Don't take it lightly. Follow her closely. I will also send more people to guard the hospital," Shawn ordered.Pearton replied, "Understood.""Every two weeks, report to me about her situation.""Yes."Shawn frowned, staring at Gale's every move more and more closely.He always felt it was a bit abnormal for her to talk to him in such a soft temperament.The death of Gale's mother hit Gale very hard. She had been in a daze for the past few days, and her steps were a little weak when she walked.When she saw him, she also glanced straight as if he did not exist.She ignored what he said, cold and thorny all over.So during Gale's recuperation period in the hospital, Shawn only dared to show up at night because he could not bear her rejection.Today... She did not drive him away, and she talk

"Of course, I need to be careful. The previous efforts will be in vain if you are accidentally exposed."Just as she was speaking, the door of the ward suddenly opened.Joe and Fiona walked in one after the other."Ma'am, Mr. Wood asked me to give you the key," Fiona said respectfully."I didn't ask him to."Fiona looked embarrassed, so she just put the key on the table. "Mr. Wood said if you are in a good mood today and your health allows, you can go for a walk. This villa is surrounded by mountains and rivers and is close to the city."Gale shook her head and said, "Take it away."Joe raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you stupid? Gale, don't be too stubborn. I had been eyeing this villa for a long time, but Shawn refused to give it to me. He didn't want to sell it to me either. You got it for nothing!""Then I'll give it to you." Gale grabbed the key and threw it. "Go on!"Fiona was stunned.She did not know what to do.She could not afford any mistakes, Mr. Wood would sc

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
