Bang!He fell on the ground, and his face was completely pale. The blood continued to flow from the corner of his mouth!His body was incredibly weak, and his heart hurt. It had completely destroyed Shawn's body!Even as strong as he was, he could not hold on!"Mr. Wood!""Quickly, get the doctors!""Send him to the hospital!"After some panic, Shawn was taken away by the ambulance.The beach was peaceful once again.However, the blood still stained the ground red!Sam said miserably, looking at the endless sea, "Gale, where are you?""Why did you do something so stupid? You'll only have hope if you're still alive. What will Uncle do when you're dead? He's alone… How could you bear to leave him alone? It's not worth killing yourself for Shawn!" Sam blamed himself for not being capable enough to face Shawn. Otherwise, he would have already taken her back! What he could do was just help her look into the truth, consoling her when she felt helpless. He could not truly save

"Yes, Mr. Winter!" Everyone in the public relations department scrambled to carry out the orders, pushing the news down.Yet, it started to trend even more as they did it!The moment they deleted one article, another one that was the exact same would pop up on the website!The more they deleted, the more they appeared!There were too many people on the internet who loved gossip!On top of that, Gale was a special person. She was the owner of the Heart of the Deep Sea and had been the daughter of the Wood family's enemy, as well as various labels. All of them shrouded her in an aura of mystery!"What's happening?" Joe quickly felt like something was wrong. "What's public relations doing?!""Mr. Winter, we've already mobilized everyone and contacted the owners of the various websites to suppress the news, but… it's useless!"Joe frowned.How could the public relations department of the Wood Group fail to suppress a single piece of news?There was only one possibility.Someon

He needed to lie to Shawn.He even needed to lie to Summer.Gale really was ruthless, both to herself and others.Looking at how Summer was crying so hard that she was struggling to breathe, Summer really did not know anything. She really thought that Gale…She was dead.Joe rubbed his temples as he walked out of the office and continued to sort everything out.Aurum looked at the shattered glass on the floor.He never expected that Joe had been the one to look into him!With how deep Joe had looked, even if Joe had not found out about the whole plan, he must still have gotten a part of the information.With that information, Joe could absolutely figure out what would happen after that.Joe was Shawn's best friend, but Joe had still called Aurum to give Aurum a hint. What did Joe mean?Did Joe want Aurum to hand Gale over?What was Joe thinking?Aurum's head was in a mess. The further they advanced the plan, the more secure they needed everything to be!He looked at the t

Gale was already dead. What did she have to be petty about?!She had to hold onto Aurum tightly until they got married and had children!The past could be left in the past!…On the flat road, some cars would occasionally drive past, but it would quickly go quiet again. A black van drove past at an even speed, looking secretive and mysterious.The van did not use any highways and only drove on roads that were not commonly used.Gale slowly opened her eyes.She looked at the top of the car, and her mind was blank. It took her half a minute to compose herself.Everything that had happened before she fell unconscious started to flow into her mind.The sea, the yacht, the dark sky, the weightlessness of being in the air, seawater crashing at her from all directions, her sinking body…Then, a pair of hands grabbed her and swam toward the shore.After that, she did not remember anything.Gale sat up, and the blanket slipped off her body. She had already been changed into a T-sh

Gale asked, "Are you Zoe?"Zoe smiled and said, "Yes, Mr. Lefting already let me know earlier. I have been here since this morning. I've been waiting for you!"Zoe used to be the Lefting family's Nanny and had taken care of Aurum.Two years ago, she returned home due to her health problems.Aurum trusted her a lot and left Gale to her.It was both because Zoe was experienced and also because Zoe had never liked to gossip when she was working with the Lefting family. She was someone reliable."Ms. Warm, I've prepared some food for you. I wonder if you'll like it. I even made some soup. Since you're with a child and you sat in the car for so long, you should nourish yourself," Zoe said."Thank you, Zoe. There's no need to be so polite. Just call me Gale. I'll be relying on you in the future."Zoe smiled and said, "Mr. Lefting said you were easy to get along with. Looks like that's true."Zoe knew her place, and did things very quickly. She never asked anything she did not need t

"Bury… what is there to bury? There is nothing left."Mr. Wood replied, "Bury her clothes. When a person dies, there must be a burial place so that loved ones can mourn."Joe glanced at Shawn, frowned, and quickly thought of a way. "Okay."He replayed the surveillance in the jewelry department conference room.Before Gale died, she often held meetings here, and the camera recorded her voice, smile, and every move.Joe cut out the part of Gale's speech in the video, put it next to Shawn's ear, and played it on a loop.Only Gale's voice can wake up Shawn!"My inspiration for this season's style comes from Summer...""The customers of Lovito are mainly young people in their twenties to thirties.""Mr. Winter, what do you think? Or does it need to be decided by Mr. Wood?"This move was very effective.After playing it several times, Shawn's eyebrows and eyes moved.They shouted in surprise, "Look, look!"Joe turned up the volume again.Gale's voice echoed throughout the ward!

Shawn kicked him hard in the chest.Pearton fell to the ground in pain, got up without saying a word, and continued to kneel.Shawn kicked again."Trash! Trash! You can't even look after a single person, so what use are you!" he yelled angrily.It was unsure whether he was scolding himself or Pearton."I asked you to shadow her, follow her. Why did you lose her!""She clearly knew that if something happened to her, you would suffer and take all the responsibilities! Gale's heart is so kind, and I did this on purpose to make her feel unruly, and as a result...""As a result, she still doesn't care about your life! Pearton, you are so useless!"Shawn cursed, and a foot was about to kick over.Pearton still lowered his head and endured silently.Shawn was the master, and he was the subordinate.He failed to fulfill his duty, and he deserved to bear the anger of his master.If this could make Shawn feel better, it did not matter if he got punished!"Okay, Shawn!" Joe chased af

That would mean… Gale was still alive.Joe's heart skipped a beat, and Pearton's expression changed rapidly.Shawn guessed it?!He found out the truth so quickly?This... was incredible!Joe looked at him. "Shawn...Did you forget that Gale can't swim." With one sentence, Shawn was sent to hell.He pulled up the corner of his lips and smiled bitterly. "Yeah, why am I so naive and deluding myself? She can't swim. If she jumps, she will definitely die!"Shawn was just trying to comfort himself.It was because he could not accept Gale's death.Shawn leaned weakly against the wall, with his head raised. This posture looked uncomfortable and strained.Joe stood beside him quietly.No one's words can calm Shawn. The only thing he could rely on was himself and time.Time would dilute everything.After a while, Shawn said, "Pearton."Pearton was silent."Never appear in front of me again."Pearton raised his head in astonishment. "Yes, sir."Shawn kicked over the chair next to

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
