'Galey, don't let him worry, don't let him get distracted.'Just be fine.The only person who could disturb Shawn's heart was Gale!"In the four years since I left you, I have lived a better life than you imagined. I didn't suffer from insomnia, didn't wake up from nightmares in the middle of the night, and lived a free and comfortable life," Gale said."Gale, you want to do better.""Of course." She raised her chin and added, "Mr. Wood..."Shawn met her gaze. "Yes?"What was up with him?"Your complexion is dark, face is haggard, and your skin is dull. Your beard should be shaved..." Gale also looked at him carefully, bending over the window of the sports car. "The dark circles under the eyes are comparable to giant pandas. Tsk tsk, you reach middle age, but you still have to clean yourself up."The corner of Shawn's mouth twitched. "Middle-aged?""Yes, if I remember correctly, Mr. Wood is thirty-two, right? Aren't you middle-aged? Are you still a teenager?"He narrowed his
He hugged her steadily and walked quickly toward the sports car."You show off… You don't need to hug me! Put me down!" Gale said, kicking her legs.Shawn ignored her and walked faster.When approaching the sports car, Shawn pressed the key, and the roof of the sports car slowly opened, turning into a convertible.Then, he just carried Gale into the co-pilot and raised her chin. "Galey... Do you know what will happen if you poke a man's weakness and call him old?""What?""He will prove himself."Old?Then let her see his physical strength!"I'm not inferior to young people..." Shawn pressed his lips against her ear and whispered, "Galey, as long as you want, I can keep you out of bed for three days and three nights.""Um..."Before she could utter her words, her lips were sealed by him.Gale placed her hands on his chest and patted him vigorously.The car was parked right at the side of the road.Although they were in a rather rural area, there would be cars coming and g
"Good."Gale went upstairs to her room.She was sitting at the desk, holding a pencil, staring at the blank paper in a daze.She witnessed how Lovito was born, and she also made the Florei brand in the small county an instant hit.Ever since Nicole fell ill, she had not drawn anything, so she was a little rusty now.After everything that had happened, she had a different understanding of jewelry.Gale closed her eyes, calmed down, and carefully thought about what kind of jewelry she would design.To be classic, to be advanced and tasteful, to be the dream of all women...The precious jewelry that was truly handed down from generation to generation was not only about the gem itself but the design to add luster to the gem.The time spent on work always flew by so fast that it had already passed zero before she knew it.Until Gale's cell phone rang.She did not stop, but picked up the phone while drawing. "Hello?"The housekeeper of Temperley Hall came. "Ma'am, it's me. Are yo
"Where's Shawn?""Inside, go in and have a look."The master bedroom was very quiet. Only one lamp was turned on, and Shawn coughed from time to time.The family doctor stood by, dispensing medicines and preparing infusions.There were several trash cans next to the bed.Gale walked to the bedside.Under the dim light, Shawn's complexion was extremely gloomy. His eyes were closed, his lips were white, and his forehead was covered with dense beads of sweat."Cold, cold..." he murmured unconsciously."Cold?" Gale subconsciously tucked the quilt up for him, then looked at the housekeeper. "Add another quilt and turn up the temperature.""It's useless, ma'am. Mr. Wood will be hot again later.""Is that so?"Gale frowned tightly.Next to it, the family doctor said, "I have already prescribed a fever-reducing injection, and I will give him another infusion. If the fever still does not subside tonight, he will have to go to the hospital for further treatment.""Does medicine work
Gale stopped her thoughts from wandering as she quickly took off his sleepwear and put a new set on, helping him lie down and button up.She had buttoned two buttons when Shawn suddenly grabbed her, pulling her forward."Ah!"Gale lurched forward, falling on his body. Her chin was on his chest.She thought that Shawn had woken up and hurriedly looked over.However, his eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and he was sweating even more. "Galey…"Shawn's voice was incredibly deep and raspy, but it was clear that he was calling for her."Galey, don't leave me…""Since you're back, just stay here, okay?""I'm not going to make you stay. I just want you to stay in Sea City.""That way, I can see you whenever I want…""I don't want you to be too far. It would take so long to travel thousands of miles and pass through many cities just to see you…""But I know you want to leave. I won't make you stay. There's nothing that can make you stay in Sea City either.""Galey, Galey, I love y
"Alright."The housekeeper added with a gentle smile, "It's like we're back in the past, when you and Mr. Wood were still amicable with each other.""Amicable?" Gale smiled to herself. "That's never happened.""It did. It was just incredibly rare. Mrs. Wood, after so many years of observation, I know that Mr. Wood really does love you deeply."Gale looked down, not answering.The housekeeper wisely left the room at that, gently shutting the door.Gale should be the one taking care of Shawn.When it came to Shawn, no medicine in the world could beat Gale.Gale tested out the temperature before feeding Shawn.Thankfully, Shawn had the medicine without any fuss.It was not as hard as she thought at all. After drinking the medicine and having the infusions, Gale felt like Shawn should be much better after a night of rest.Just as Gale thought that, Shawn started to cough roughly again.The cough got worse and worse, filling the whole room with the sounds of his coughing. His fa
After that, Gale leaned down, and her lips met Shawn's.He opened his mouth slightly and even started to lick her lightly.His throat moved.Gale constantly told herself in her heart that it was all okay. That no one was looking at them and that Shawn was unconscious would not remember it!Mouth after mouth.Just like that, Gale fed Shawn all his medicine.She was even worried that he would start coughing, so she did not leave his lips, putting hers on his tightly.One minute, two minutes, five minutes…Finally, Gale felt like her lips were about to go numb. Seeing as Shawn showed no signs of coughing, she slowly got up and left.Gale touched her lips.Her mouth was a bit bitter with the taste of the medicine, but what was on her mind was Shawn's soft lips…No, no, since when was she such a fan of Shawn?!Gale ran over to the washroom, washing her face to calm down.By the time she was back, the liquid infusion was already done.By the time everything was done, light coul
"Yes, with the mouth."Shawn finally understood.His earlier expression of misery was suddenly incredibly bright."I understand."On the surface, he still remained calm. "She's still asleep. Have the kitchen prepare a few kinds of breakfast for her.""Yes, yes, I still remember Mrs. Wood's tastes. Mr. Wood, don't worry"Shawn had a smirk on his lips. The sun that day felt incredibly good.The weather was good, and he was in a good mood too.Shawn suddenly felt like he had fully recovered!Gale slept very deeply. Taking care of Shawn by herself the whole night had been too exhausting, so she did not want to wake up.She knew that she was sleeping, but her eyes refused to open.By the time she woke up, it was already incredibly bright outside.Her stomach rumbled.Gale sat up from the bed before realizing something was wrong. Why was she on the bed?Was she not just napping by the side?Wait, where was Shawn?He was missing.Gale hurriedly went down. When she was at the
