Gale cooked three dishes and one soup, and had dinner with Peter.Then, they went for a walk and chatted.She only turned to her room after ten o'clock.Just as she was about to take a bath, the phone rang. Gale saw that it was Aurum calling."Hey, Mr. Lefting."Aurum's voice was extraordinarily serious. "Something went wrong. Gale, did you slip up today?""No. Apart from a brief chat with my dad, I didn't mention it to anyone!"Gale panicked.Was there an accident? Have plans changed? Or… had Shawn found out?!"Someone is looking for me. And that person is very experienced and skilled. He has already found out that I am secretly looking for a diver! He will find that diver soon!" Aurum said.Someone needed to meet her in the sea to bring Gale ashore when jumping into the sea.Not everyone could do that. They would have to stay in the sea for a long time.Once that person found the diver and tortured him to extract a confession or bribe… the plan would be exposed!Gale sud
"Talk to you soon."After speaking, Aurum quickly hung up the phone.He was also in a state of desperation at the moment.The plan, which was carried out smoothly and secretly, suddenly changed!What was going on? What went wrong?Aurum had always been low-key and cautious in everything he did, step by step. In order to successfully and smoothly help Gale escape, he devoted more energy and thought than usual!Only he and Gale knew about the plan! Knock, knock… A knock came from the door."Aurum, I cut some fruit. Can I come in?" Natalie said.Aurum walked quickly to open the door. "Natalie, you are still awake?""If you don't sleep, how can I sleep? Seeing that the light in your study room was still on, I went to the kitchen to prepare some fruit for you."Aurum reached out to take it, just in time to see the band-aid on Natalie's finger."Did you cut your hand?" he asked.Natalie shrank. "It's okay. It's a small cut. It's okay.""Next time, ask the servants to do it. Yo
Besides, she even sensed that something was wrong with Aurum. Someone so smart as Shawn would have sensed it as well?"It's nothing. I didn't mean to blame you. Go to sleep first, don't wait up," Aurum said."Without you, I can't sleep well."Aurum hugged her and said, "After these few days, I will accompany you."Natalie was a little disappointed. "Okay..."Aurum sent her back to the bedroom, covered her with a quilt, and then returned to the study.He stood in front of the study window, thinking hard about what to do next. Gale was also lying on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.She has insomnia.She kept thinking if Shawn knew, why did he not just expose her, cut off her connections, and imprison her, preventing her from escaping?If he did not know, then who was the person who was investigating Aurum?Gale thought about that question all night but could not figure it out.She squinted for a while until dawn.After waking up and going downstairs, Peter loo
Shawn looked at how fast Peach ran; what a smart girl. Summer nodded and said, "Yes! Gale, let's go! It would be bad if you were late!"She took Gale's hand.However, Shawn held Gale's other hand.He said, "She doesn't need to clock in today."Summer replied, "Then I won't clock in either. I can come in a little later!"Shawn stopped entertaining her and said, "Pearton.""Yes, Mr. Wood."Summer was startled and looked at Pearton. "Where did you come from? ""Take her away.""Alright, Mr. Wood."Pearton passed one hand under Summer's elbow and dragged her to the company."Hey, hey, why are you dragging me...Who are you? Gale!"Summer was quickly pulled away.Gale was so nervous that her throat felt dry. "What do you have to say to me?"Her voice was trembling.She tried her best to restrain herself, but this was the only way she could do it."Are you afraid of me?" Shawn also noticed her strangeness and asked, "Gale, why are you afraid of me?"Gale immediately denied,
Shawn's voice came. "Be careful about how you park your car. What if I bumped into her?""I didn't look in the rearview mirror.""How did you get your driver's license?"Joe spread his hands and said, "Didn't you miss it?"Shawn gave him a warning look."Yes, I know that's the apple of your eye." Joe patted him on the shoulder and said, "Calm down."Shawn pushed his hand away and said, "I asked you to investigate Aurum. Did you find anything?""Uh... it's in progress."Shawn asked, "Get it as soon as possible. How long will it take?""Two or three days."Shawn narrowed his eyes slightly. "Joe. This is unlike you."Joe replied, "The person you asked me to investigate is Aurum, who is not an ordinary person. He has always been very low-key, so my progress will naturally be slower." As he spoke, Joe asked casually, "What I'm curious about is why you suddenly want to investigate Aurum? How did he offend you?""What are you doing with such detailed inquiries?""I need to ask cl
"Emotional matters can only be dealt with by oneself, and no one else can help."Joe shrugged and said, "If you try, you might succeed. If you don't try, you will never know."Gale said helplessly, "Mr. Winter, you should pay more attention to my work.""You have done a good job. Besides, you are my boss, so how dare I find fault with you."The original atmosphere returned.It seemed that the serious Joe just now had never appeared before.Gale sighed. "I'm some kind of proprietress. Okay, Mr. Winter, I'll continue to draw the design draft.""Okay."Gale left, and Joe's smile slowly froze.He took out his mobile phone and dialed a number. "Are you sure that what you have found is true?""Yes.""Aurum is not an ordinary person." "We used special methods to hack his phone records and listen to his conversation. We are absolutely not wrong!" said the person on the other end.Joe paused for a few seconds before responding, "Okay." After hanging up the phone, he walked to the
Shawn squinted his eyes deeply and asked, "What did you find?""I...""Tell me!""I found nothing!""What did you say?""Yes, that's why I find it strange. Have you been deceived by Natalie?" Joe said."How dare she lie to me.""But from the clues and news I got, the relationship between Aurum and Gale...is pretty normal. The two of them do call frequently, but they are just a few words of greeting, and the call time is very short," Joe replied.Shawn asked, "What did they talk about?""Didn't I say it just now? Just normal greetings."Shawn denied, "Impossible!"A normal ordinary friend would always call to ask about each other? Moreover, they even met physically.If that was the case, Natalie would not have come to see him specially and told him about it.Could it be that his and Natalie's intuitions were both wrong?"That was really all I had found. Maybe Aurum just cared too much for Gale," Joe replied.Shawn leaned back in his chair and threw away his pen.Joe spre
Hearing this, Joe's eyes instantly became extremely sharp, and he quickly looked back at Gale.However, no one noticed him.Joe closed the door slowly.Seaside, yachts.He thought about what Aurum was doing...Joe closed his eyes.He had no idea if what he had done was right or wrong, but he had said what he said when he came here to meet Shawn. He made a choice.He... chose to hide.Shawn was even more surprised when he heard Gale's invitation.Not only had she taken the initiative to find him, but she also took the initiative to ask him to have dinner together?The restaurant on the yacht had always been a sanctimonious spot for couples to date.Sitting by the sea breeze and eating a candlelight dinner would be very romantic."Gale, you..." Shawn was not sure, and asked again, "You asked to have dinner with you tonight?""Yes."With a pause, Gale said, "Fine, just pretend I didn't mention it."She pretended to be free-wheeling, looked away, and was about to turn around
