Genes were incredibly strong.Shawn always accomplished everything he wanted to do. Joshua was the same as well.He wanted to be the champion and gain the rewards. He wanted to be the undisputed first palace!Aurum said, "Alright, Joshua. Focus on your studies and listen to Mrs. Zoe. I'll send you a whole set of sports car toys tomorrow as a reward for winning the piano competition.""Uncle Lefting, you don't have to send it over.""How are you going to get it if I don't?"Joshua said immediately, "I can come and get it from Sea City!"At that moment, he revealed his true goal.Aurum was stunned again.It was the first time he was talking to Joshua face to face like that, so he still did not know how Joshua was. He was constantly shocked."So, you said so much because you want to come to Sea City?"Joshua nodded. "That's right. Mommy is there, and Nicole is there. Nicole is even going through surgery. I want to go see them and keep them company, but you must know that Mommy

He was incredibly excited. "This is for mommy, this is for Nicole. These are my clothes…"Very quickly, his bag was stuffed full.After that, all there was left was for Aurum to get him!Yet, Gale knew nothing about it.After the day of the surgery was set, the doctors and nurses started to pay very frequent visits.Nicole needed a lot of checkups before her surgery. Even though the nurses were very attentive, Gale was still with Nicole the whole time.Shawn was not idle either. As the bone marrow donor, he needed a lot of nutrients, especially iron.So he needed to eat a lot of red meat.There were some things that he would never touch before that, but he would force himself to swallow them for the iron.Not only that, Shawn needed injections to help with the transplant.At night, Nicole was already asleep.Gale tucked Nicole in, looking at the needle marks on Nicole's arm. Gale teared up.Everything would be done very soon.Nicole would be a healthy, normal child."Don'

She was not some pure, innocent girl. She was already a mother of two. She was familiar with these things!So, Gale's body immediately stiffened at that moment.Would Shawn lose himself?Shawn's hand rubbed her waist gently. "As long as you don't move around so much, you don't have to be so nervous. I won't force you."However…With his beloved girl in his arms every day, only able to look at her…It really was torture. It tested a man's patience.Even though Shawn had a strong will, able to keep himself sober even when drugged by harming himself, the self-control he was so proud of was still useless in front of Gale.That was because Gale was everything to him!Her smell, her softness. She did not even need to do anything but stand there to drive Shawn crazy!Gale said, "C-can you distance yourself from me? You could slowly calm down?"She felt like she would accidentally touch him somewhere.Then, it would be real trouble!His temperature was slowly rising. Gale could cl

At the slenderest part of her waist was a heart-shaped birthmark.The shape was unique, but the location was relatively hidden, so very few people knew about it.Only Summer and Shawn knew about it.In the past... when he was happy and they were in love, he would lower his head and kiss her birthmark."Gale, apart from me, no other man knows of its existence, right?"She frowned and asked, "Why are you asking this?"Shawn's heart sank immediately. "If you don't answer me directly, then..."Other men knew!Who!How would they know!Unless she was naked, no one could see it!Gale replied directly, "Yes. Yes. There is another man who knows that I have a birthmark on my waist!"Jealousy was about to swallow Shawn's rationality!However, he still managed to keep calm and asked, "It is... my father-in-law? Right? You're kidding me, Gale."His father-in-law was also a man, so it was normal to know the birthmark of his daughter.Gale replied, "Oh, thank you for the reminder. Bes

Natalie asked, "What happened? Have you had plastic surgery to look just like Gale?"Winnie nodded."What have you been doing in the past few years since you were blacklisted?""Natalie, I'm at a loss now. Only you can help me... I must go back to Shawn. I want to replace Gale! It doesn't matter whether it's real Gale or fake Gale. I will squeeze her down!"Natalie was full of doubts. "Answer my question first. What's going on!""I had plastic surgery to look like Gale, and I was able to move into Temperley Hall. Although Shawn knew that I had plastic surgery, he was greedy for my face, so he kept me there and treated me as a substitute," Winnie replied."It turns out that the rumors everywhere in Sea City about the woman brought back to Temperley Hall by Shawn were actually about you?"Natalie had heard a little about these things from a few rich wives and famous ladies.However, she did not expect it to be Winnie!"Yes, everything was going as I wanted until… Gale came back!

Furthermore, she grew up in Sea City since she was a child. She was very popular and social. It was easy to inquire about anything.However, Shawn was not an ordinary person, and he protected Gale too well, so no one knew anything.However, Natalie thought of another trick.She contacted the nurse in the hospital and paid a bribe. Only one nurse dared to respond."Go and ask your colleagues about who is sick and why they are living in the VIP ward."The nurse quickly agreed to it.Natalie quietly waited for the news.…Aurum stood by the car door at Sea City Airport, looking toward the exit.Until a small figure appeared in his line of sight.Joshua dragged the little yellow suitcase, wearing sunglasses and a hat, walking very coolly.Aurum immediately stepped forward."Uncle Lefting!" Seeing him, Joshua quickly waved. "Here, here!"Aurum took his suitcase. "You're so small, but the suitcase looks tall."Zoe said, "It's because he insists on taking it by himself. Gale has

Aurum reached out to pick him up and quickly carried him into the car!Even though he was recognized, he stayed to say hello instead of running!At this time, Aurum suddenly realized...He was a fool for agreeing to Joshua's coming to Sea City!This little devil was not as easy to control and obedient as he imagined!"Don't be nervous, Uncle Lefting." Joshua saw his anxiety and said, "I won't cause trouble, absolutely, absolutely, I swear!"Aurum warned, "Okay, then you must firmly remember my words. You follow Mrs. Zoe and stay at my house. Don't say that your mother is Gale. When others ask, you just say you are Mrs. Zoe's grandson, your parents are divorced, so you follow grandma.""I know, I know!"Aurum was still a little worried, thinking about what he should say.Joshua leaned over with a playful smile and stretched out two fingers. "Uncle Lefting, I will only be here for two days, and I'll be back on the weekend night, don't worry!"His heart melted.Fortunately, Zoe

Nicole stretched out her hand and shook it in front of her eyes. "Mommy, what's the matter with you?""Ah? Oh, I...I'm fine. You're about to have surgery. Are you afraid?"Nicole shook her head. "I'm not afraid at all because I have you and Daddy!""Nicole, you brother is here too. Do you want to see him?"Nicole's eyes lit up instantly. "I want to meet you! Where is he?""Hush... Keep your voice down, this is a secret between us, and no one else should know."Nicole covered her mouth, and her little head kept nodding."Mommy will let you meet your brother. Please wait patiently.""How long has Joshua been here? Will he go back?""He…"Actually, Gale did not know either.At this moment, hearty laughter came from outside, accompanied by the sound of the crutches hitting the ground, slowly approaching."Shawn, I have grown up in front of a few old friends these days... The feeling of being promoted to be a grandpa is just different.""When I'm in a good mood, my body becomes

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
