"Eager much?" Shawn asked deeply.Winnie smiled shyly. "Don't tease me...""Don't worry, I will satisfy you tonight." Shawn leaned into her ear.Winnie was ecstatic.Her dream was to become Shawn's woman!Tonight, it will finally come true!She only had the chance to conceive Mr. Wood's child when she slept with him!Once she had a child, even if Nicole woke up, even if Shawn's hypnosis failed, she would have a backup plan!Shawn hugged her waist and walked slowly toward the bed.He pretended to ask casually, "By the way, I've always been curious about one thing.""What is it?""How did you do it? How did you make Nicole mistake you for Mommy?"Winnie's smile froze, and she quickly said coquettishly, "Why are you suddenly asking this question at this time..."Shawn replied flatly, "It's nothing. I'm just curious.""Shawny, Gale is a woman who doesn't know what's good and what's wrong. She doesn't look good to you, and you no longer like her. Now, let me take care of Nicol
He did not know how long it took. The dark sky began to brighten, and it was already midnight when the movement in the master bedroom slowly subsided.At Shawn's feet, there was a pile of cigarette butts.With a soft click, the door of the master bedroom opened, and a strong and burly bodyguard sneaked out from inside, with his upper body naked and his own clothes in his hands."Mr. Wood, I...I have fulfilled your order," the bodyguard said.Shawn stood there casually and asked lightly, "How do you feel?""Uh, it's pretty good. Ms. Nightingale passed out, and she fell asleep quickly, so I slipped out easily."Shawn twitched the corner of his mouth and turned around. "Yes, you performed very well."The bodyguard lowered his head. "Thank you, Mr. Wood, for your compliment.""In the future, there will be many opportunities like this. Enjoy it while it lasts," Shawn said.The bodyguard grinned and scratched his head. "Thank you, Mr. Wood! Thank you, Mr. Wood!"Winnie used to be a
A father's embrace felt so warm. It felt solid and reliable.No demons could ever get close to her!Shawn put her back in bed, pulling the covers back up. "Yes, I'll be with you. You can sleep in peace."Nicole asked with some concern, "Daddy, will you be here all night?""Yes.""Then, what about Mommy? Aren't you going to be with Mommy?""She's already asleep."Nicole still wanted to say something, but Shawn pinched her cheek. "Mommy can sleep alone, don't worry."Nicole finally shut her eyes.It was Shawn's first time sleeping with his daughter.His eyes were open the whole time.Looking at Nicole's little body lying down next to him, he was afraid to move too much. He felt like he would squash her.Shawn thought about how Nicole would have been smaller and more fragile when she was just born. How did Gale raise Nicole up alone?Four years, over a thousand days and nights, Gale had raised Nicole just like that.He had finally been able to experience it.The next morn
Shawn looked at Joshua. Joshua noticed his gaze and looked up to meet it.After that, Joshua made a face."Uncle Shawn, your house is so big! No wonder Nicole invited us over!" he said."That's right. Joshua, you can come here to play every day. You can even stay here!"Shawn narrowed his eyes, focusing on a word. "Us?""Exactly, look!" Joshua pointed at the door.Aurum walked in.There was also a woman beside Aurum.The woman had very rough clothes on. She looked very plain, and her hair was pulled back. Her face was filled with wrinkles, and she looked to be in her forties.She quietly stood beside Aurum, not saying anything.Shawn's eyes were fixed right on her, and his gaze did not move away at all.Very quickly, she looked toward Shawn as well.Shawn's eyes widened. Gale!That was clearly Gale!From afar, he had just thought she looked similar. She had been similar to Gale both in figure and bearing. The moment their gazes met, he was absolutely sure that it was Ga
Winnie nodded, not really in the mood to bother with Nicole.Why was Aurum suddenly at Temperley Hall?Why did she feel like something was off about that old-looking, raspy-voiced woman?Furthermore, who was that boy? She had never seen him before!Yet, everyone else seemed to know the boy.Winnie curiously looked at Joshua, constantly trying to evaluate the boy.Joshua did not pull back at all, meeting her gaze with a straight back.He even greeted her, "Hello."Winnie did not know who that boy was, but she felt like she could not offend the boy since he was a child Aurum brought over.So, she smiled. "Hello, you know Nicole?""Yes, we went to the amusement park before."Nicole looked at the two of them in confusion. "Mommy, this is Joshua. Don't you know him?"Winnie thought that Nicole was starting to suspect her, and Winnie panicked."How could I not know him, hahaha." Winnie forced out a laugh to stifle the matter. "Go ahead and have fun with each other.As she said
"I…"Winnie could not explain why she suddenly tripped either.She felt like she stepped on something, but it felt like her legs gave way as well.She was just about to answer when she looked at Aurum and that woman. Then, she suddenly had an embarrassed look on her face. "Come on, Shawn. Shouldn't you know why I tripped? How could you ask me now?"Shawn raised an eyebrow. "You're blaming me?"She hit Shawn on the chest. "Yes, it's all your fault. You were just too fierce last night. You never stopped. My waist feels like it's about to break. That's why I was struggling to walk today…"Winnie was not that loud, but it was enough for everyone there to hear her.She was saying that on purpose.She wanted as many people to know as possible that she had successfully slept with Shawn!Aurum glanced at Gale.Gale looked down, and her hair obscured her face. No one could see her expression.Gale was probably feeling very sad at that moment.Otherwise, there was no way Gale would h
Winnie was quite polite and respectful to Aurum because of Natalie, worried she would offend him."The son of a friend," Aurum answered.Winnie nodded. "Since they seem to have so much fun together, you can bring him over more often. Nicole's quite bored alone."Aurum was surprised that she said that.It seemed like Winnie did not know Joshua had tripped her just now at all.That was good. Joshua was a troublemaker. Joshua would be able to teach Winnie a few lessons!He was a kid in the end. Even if Winnie noticed it, there was nothing Winnie would be able to do.After all, there was no reason to be petty with a child!"Sure, I would love for Joshua and Nicole to see each other more often too. They can build a good relationship," Aurum answered.Shawn frowned unhappily. "What kind of relationship?"Aurum thought about it and answered, "A sibling relationship."Gale started to get anxious by the side.Was that not too obvious?!Thankfully, she was the only one who thought t
Winnie suddenly felt like something was wrong the more she looked at her.Why did something seem off with that old woman?Even though the woman's face was full of wrinkles, her hair was black and glossy, and the skin on her neck seemed very smooth.Her hands were pale and soft as well!It was not the body of an old lady!Winnie stared at her unblinkingly before she finally asked, "Who are you?""That's none of your business!"Winnie walked forward and reached out to claw at Gale's face. "Are you wearing a mask, or is this makeup? I'll pull it off…"Gale avoided Winnie.Shawn and Aurum both stepped forward at the same time when that happened.Aurum pushed Winnie away. "What are you doing?!"Winnie was forced back a few steps from the force of the push.Shawn walked over. He had planned on pulling the two of them apart and stopping Winnie from doing anything in the name of helping Winnie.He could not help Gale too obviously!However, when he saw Aurum pushing her away, he
