"No matter how cruel the truth is, I want you to tell me. I don't want to find out from someone else."Gale shut her eyes.Slowly, she started to relax into his embrace.Gale asked, "Are you sure you want to listen? You won't pursue it, and you won't get angry?""Yes."Gale was a bit hesitant.If it were just herself, then she would have already said it. There was nothing much to hide.Since she did it, she would admit to it.However, this involved Aurum.The thought had just flashed in Gale's mind when Shawn said, "Did Aurum help you?"Why did this man seem like he could read minds?Gale did not say anything.Shawn continued, "I won't touch him, and I won't get angry at him. Galey, I just want to know what happened.""Why do you want to know this so suddenly?"Shawn's lips were against her skin. "I told you, I want us to treat each other honestly. I want to get over any lingering issues. Galey, this is the only thing I haven't been able to get over when it comes to you.
Shawn asked, "You are so high up. The sea is so deep, and the sky is so dark... Galey, aren't you afraid?""Didn't you have the slightest fear?""Didn't you flinch a little?"Gale replied, "I was afraid. But compared to this little physical fear, what I'm more afraid of is that I will be trapped by your side and lose my freedom forever. I will become a canary that lives in your cage.""It's because you didn't let go in time that I let you bear such fear...""As soon as you close your eyes, it's just like that. It only takes a few seconds."Shawn's voice trembled a little. "What about the child? Galey, you're still pregnant with the child..."Did she ever think that maybe this jump would lead to the loss of the child?Fortunately, the mother and daughter are safe; they were lucky...Gale replied, "I took a gamble. If I succeed, I will be permanently free. If I lose, the worst is that I will maintain my original life and stay by your side."Took a gamble, and there was still ho
Once he found out that Aurum was manipulating behind the scenes, he definitely wanted to make the entire Lefting family pay the price!Aurum was betting the entire Lefting family!However, how long have Gale and Aurum known each other? How long have they met?"He..." Gale raised his head and looked into Shawn's eyes. "If I told you, I don't know, would you believe me?""No.""Aurum mentioned a reason. He said that the first time he saw me, he thought I felt very familiar, like an old friend of his. But he can't see that friend anymore, so he owed that person, and wanted to make it up to me."Gale was telling the truth, but she did not tell Shawn that this friend was the missing real daughter of the Yarn family.Shawn narrowed his eyes slightly.Old friend?This reason... sounded too absurd."Aurum really said that." Gale added hastily, "I am also very puzzled, because I have a feeling that he is willing to help me like this... I also owe him a lot.""In the past four years,
He was the one who loved her the most, and he had never given less than Aurum!Soon, Shawn twitched the corner of his mouth bitterly. "I'm too greedy… How can I be so strict with you."The encounter between him and her started in the name of harm!Gale raised her hand and stroked his face lightly. "Shawn, you and Aurum are always two different people. He is my best friend. And you and I…"Were they lovers?She felt a surge of emotion. She wanted to say that they were destined for each other.Gale did not continue talking.Their lips met.At this moment, the atmosphere was intense, and both of their breathing became short.They obviously love each other deeply from the bottom of their hearts, but there was too much history, and there was no way to truly just be with each other.Shawn would not marry again.Gale… well, she was impossible to remarry.This kiss was delicate and infinitely tender.There was no usurpation, no wild encroachment, only two people who could not expr
Shawn showed a satisfied expression.He picked up the cigarette case and asked softly, "What's the situation with Nicole now?""She is kept under surveillance. Winnie is acting normally, there is no abnormality, she... indeed is doing her best to take care of Ms. Nicole. Basic food, housing, transportation, every detail, there is no sign of abuse," Fiona replied."Assuming she still has some brains."Once Winnie dared to harm her, Shawn would never forgive her!If she dared to touch Nicole, he would cut off one of her fingers in the future!Shawn asked again, "No more? Did you find anything wrong with Winnie?""Mr. Wood... She behaved very normally, changing her medicine, cooking, and reading story books to Ms. Nicole.""Cooking? She cooks for Nicole?""Yes, Mr. Wood."Shawn's eyes narrowed deeply. "What did she cook?"Fiona said, "They're all home-cooked dishes… Oh yes, Winnie made soup for Ms. Nicole every day, and made Ms. Nicole drinks a small bowl every morning, noon, a
"Galey, don't misunderstand me, don't hate me. Please be sure to trust me from the beginning to the end," Shawn said to himself.In the jewelry department.Looking at the signboard at the door, Gale felt a long-lost intimacy.This was the career she had worked hard for and struggled for. Now, Lovito had become a proper brand, and it had become jewelry that many female consumers wanted to have most!Every time Lovito had a new launch, it would break the consumption record!Peach ran over happily. "Gale! Welcome back!"She hugged Gale."I miss you so much. Gale, you are here!"Facing Peach's enthusiasm, Gale did not know how to respond. "I...""Needless to say, we understand, we all understand!"Immediately afterward, there was a bang, and countless shiny ribbons flew in the air, landing on Gale's hair and shoulders.Peach immediately jumped up, waving his hands. "Today is a good day!"All the colleagues in the jewelry department stood up from their workstations and applauded
"Let's stop being vague. I won't talk about Nicole's situation now, but what about Joshua?" Joe was straightforward."He's here."Joe was very surprised. "What? He... you, you brought him?""It's a long story. He lives in Aurum's house now, and no one knows that he is my son," Gale replied."What?"Gale was speechless.Joe coughed. "You have to think about it for me. Shawn and I have been brothers for so many years. We have been through life and death. I face him every day, but I keep lying to him. I feel uncomfortable."He had helped Gale a lot.As a result, every time he saw Shawn, he felt very guilty.He did not dare to complain as much as before."Let's not talk about Joshua first. I still feel guilty toward Shawn about you jumping into the sea and feigning death. I could have told him in advance, but I concealed it, which caused you to be apart from him for four years."As he said that, Joe made a gesture of wiping his neck. "That man, Shawn, is a smart one who hates tr
Gale sighed and said, "So, I can't expose Joshua to others for the time being. No matter how smart he is, he is just a child and has no ability to protect himself. Of course, there is also my selfishness in it. I don't want... Joshua to return to the Wood family, and no longer belong to me."Joe nodded. "I understand... Hey, okay, I will play it by ear.""Thank you, Mr. Winter.""But you have to promise me, in the future, if Shawn knows these things, you have to cover for me, you must cover for me."Gale smiled helplessly. "Yes, yes, Mr. Winter, how can I have the heart to call you out?"Only then did Joe nod contentedly. "Okay, I'll go and see Joshua when I have time, his little devil… Is quite interesting!"After all, Joshua really has some Shawn genes in him!Like father, like son!Summer greeted, "Gale, come here. The cake is here. I'm waiting for you to make the first cut!""Come, come, come!"Gale walked over with a smile, blew out the candles, divided the cake piece by
