"Oh, by the way, do you understand how much Nicole likes me and relies on me? If I'm unhappy, I'll scold her, ignore her for a few days, and then belittle her and say that I don't want her. What will become of her?""Thinking about it, I feel pitiful for Nicole, whom I despise! She is obviously the delicate little princess of the Wood family. She can be superior, and anyone will come to her if she wants anything, but she will suffer from my mental and spiritual abuse. If I feel that she did not do well herself, making me unhappy...""Don't worry, Gale, I won't do anything to her physically. Otherwise, if someone sees it, they will say that I'm not a good stepmother. I can't be so obvious. After all, she also has the Wood family supporting her…"Before Winnie could finish speaking, Gale punched her!No matter how much she endured, she was a coward!Winnie just deserved a beating! Gale's fist hit Winnie's cheek hard, making a muffled bang."Ah!"Winnie screamed, stepped back sev

Shawn's eyebrows darkened.Winnie fell into his arms, looking fragile and helpless, but her eyes looked toward Gale very complacently.Shawn did not push her away but put his arms around her waist. He spoke softly, but it was enough for Gale to hear…"How did you fall? Did you accidentally, or did...someone push you?""Gale pushed me, Mr. Wood. Just before you came, she hit me.""What?"For a moment, Shawn's complexion suddenly changed, like dark clouds, gloomy and stormy!This kind of Shawn was no stranger to Gale.Moreover, she had seen it many, many times.In the past, when she was bullied, when she fell, when she was injured, as long as Shawn was present, he would immediately help her up, hug her, check her up and down, and check her for injuries.After confirming that she was fine, he would ask the reason and what happened.Then… he would stand up for her and back her up!He would never let go of anyone who targets her!At this moment, Gale saw Shawn like this again.

Gale looked at him fixedly without blinking her eyes."I said, apologize. Didn't you hear clearly?" Shawn repeated again."You want me to apologize to Winnie?""That's right.""Shawn, do you even know what you're talking about!?"He frowned. "You hit and pushed people, hurting Win Win. Isn't it natural for me to ask you to apologize to her? Could it be that I have wronged you?"Shawn's words hurt her like a knife, piercing her heart fiercely.His address to Winnie…was so intimate.Win Win.Was this the Shawn she knew?Was it the man who kept whispering her name in high fever and needed her to accompany her to eat medicine?"I'm not wrong. I...won't apologize to her at all!"Even if she died, she would not apologize to Winnie!Shawn's face became increasingly ugly.This was a sign of his anger. Gale knew it.At this time, Winnie deliberately said hypocritically, "Mr. Wood, forget it... Anyway, it's not the first time she has bullied me. Fortunately, I wasn't hurt too badl

Otherwise, she would be deceived by Shawn and foolishly stay by his side and fall in love with him again."I wish you happiness." Gale's smile became brighter and brighter. "It's best to grow old together, a happy marriage for a hundred years!""This is a matter between Win Win and me. It's not your turn to worry about it. Let's talk about the current matter first, Gale, do you want to apologize?" Shawn said lightly.His tone was uncompromising and commanding.He was determined to support Winnie.Gale was also determined not to bow her head and admit her mistake!Four years ago, she was in such a desperate situation, humbled to the point of dust, everyone looked down on her. When Susan bullied her to death, she even preferred to be whipped, but she never apologized.Let alone now.Gale would definitely not encourage Winnie's arrogance!Seeing that Gale did not answer for a long time, the impatience on Shawn's face became more and more obvious.Winnie deliberately escalated th

"No way..."Summer raised her head and habitually yelled back at Joe, but she also saw the scene not far away.She was also dumbfounded."The one in Shawn's arms is... is Winnie?""Yes," Joe answered in the affirmative."It isn't Gale?"Joe said, "Gale… Should be the one with her back facing us."Without saying a word, Summer rushed forward immediately.Joe quickly followed."Gale!" Summer strode towards her side. "What's wrong? What happened?""Shawn asked me to apologize to Winnie.""What? Why?""I hit her.""Isn't that a good fight?"Joe looked at Shawn, then at Winnie, then at Gale...He coughed. "Is there some misunderstanding?"Joe was quite good at peacemaking."No misunderstanding. I hit Winnie and pushed her. But it was also because Winnie deserved to be hit! Why did Shawn defend Winnie, and why did he ask me to apologize?" Gale replied bluntly.Joe was secretly shocked, but he did not show it on his face.Was Shawn crazy?To actually stand by Winnie's sid
Skeletons Of The Marital Closet Chapter 898
So, Shawn's heart had been shaken!Seeing Gale leave like this, Winnie was not reconciled, but she definitely could not go forward and stop her herself!"Mr. Wood, look, Gale is so arrogant. When you talk to her, she ignores her and just turns around and walks away...Hey, what man can bear her temper?" Winnie said.Before Shawn could speak, Summer heard it, stared at her, and started to squirt. "What's wrong? Besides, are you a human being? Animals have more conscience than you, right? Winnie, do you really think of yourself as someone special?""Let me tell you, even if Shawn supports you, Gale will still beat you, and I will want to beat you! What's so great about you? Huh?""You don't even have a real face. You made it according to Gale's appearance. You tricked me again and asked Nicole to call you Mommy, and now...Shawn has fallen for your tricks!""Winnie, listen carefully. No matter how many tricks you use, what you get will not belong to you forever! If you come out to me

In Peter's villa.Gale was so angry that she did not even eat and went upstairs and locked herself in the room as soon as she got home."Who messed with her?" Peter looked at Summer. "What is with the sullen look on her face?""Who else could it be?""Shawn?"Summer nodded. "Yes, I'm going to explode as well."Peter was very worried. "Is it serious?""It's okay, Uncle. I'll go and comfort her." Summer walked upstairs. "Heat up the food first!""Okay, okay, Summer, please calm her down. She needs to take care of herself."In the bedroom, Gale washed her face and sat on the balcony with her hair tied up.The sun was setting, and it was almost dark."What is wrong with Shawn?" Summer sat down opposite her. "Suddenly, he leaned toward Winnie? Before I came, did he say anything else?"Gale replied angrily, "He said too much, I can't remember!"Actually…She remembered everything clearly!She just did not want to mention it, lest she blew herself up!Having been best friends

"Nicole looks normal, she knows everything, but she doesn't know you."Gale frowned, thinking carefully.Then, she shook her head. "No, it's impossible."Summer asked back, "Why? A crazy person like Winnie can do anything."Gale said, "I know she has no bottom line or lower limit, but Shawn is not at the mercy of others. He is so smart, and he has always been on guard against Winnie, so he won't let her get her easily! ""What if... Winnie succeeded?"Gale fell silent.Apart from this reason, she could not think of why Shawn changed his mind.Even if he changes, it would not be that quick.Gale's eyes gradually became firm. "If he is really controlled by Winnie, I will do everything possible to make him sober. I will also make sure Nicole returns to normal!"Their father and daughter were waiting for her to rescue them!"Observe again, don't startle the snake. Maybe...Shawn just changed his mind. Men like gentle, obedient women anyway," Summer said.She stood up and pulled

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
