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

"Come on, you're so rude for no reason. If you act like this, how many men will actually like you…"Gale answered, "I don't need any men to live a good life!"Winnie said in a pleased manner, "It's a skill to be able to rely on men, right Shawn?"She sounded so intimate with Shawn.Even Gale had never spoken to Shawn like that before.In her memory, the first time she had ever called out to Shawn so intimately was in the back of the car.At the time, he had pushed her against the chair and was doing all sorts of things to her.He had forced her to call out his name.Unable to do anything about it, Gale had called out his name to beg for mercy.At the time, she had called out to him in such an intimate manner because she thought that he would be happy with it and spare her.Yet, he became even more intense!However, he was actually able to act so intimately with another woman.Did it hurt? Was she sad?When it reached a certain limit, she went a bit numb.Gale was alread

That was something she wanted to do for Nicole as Nicole's mother.For the sake of Winnie's own goals, Winnie deliberately scared Nicole.So, Gale would do whatever she could to help Nicole recover!A mother was still a mother! She truly wanted the best for her child!Shawn pursed his lips slightly. "You want to stay here to take care of Nicole?"Gale nodded. "Yes. That's why I look like this right now. She won't recognize me and won't hate me. I assure you, I'll make sure Nicole will be able to rest well. I raised her myself, and I know how to take care of her."Furthermore, Nicole was recovering from a major illness. After coming out of the hospital, the servants would definitely not be as attentive as the nurses at the hospital. They were not as versed in medicine, so Gale was worried.Nicole needed to be taken care of in every way to prevent any future problems.Shawn did not accept or reject it. He looked at Winnie. "What do you think?"He was asking Winnie for her opinio
Skeletons Of The Marital Closet Chapter 939
Gale looked so calm on the surface, but she was definitely sad inside!Gale did not even think about it as she agreed. "Sure."She only had Nicole in mind. She could bear with everything else!Aurum could no longer take it.Why did Gale need to suffer like that?!"Winnie, should Gale be the one who knows her place or you?" Aurum asked, "Shawn and her are a legally wedded couple! What do you have to stand on?!"She was just a woman who made herself look like Gale to stay by Shawn's side.She was a woman who used sinister means to control Nicole, entering Temperley Hall, thanks to that.Did she really think she was anyone notable?Aurum would not stand for anyone who harassed Gale like that in front of him!No one could make her suffer!As long as he was there, he would support Gale!Winnie answered, "Mr. Lefting, Shawn's marriage with her has already been destroyed the moment Gale jumped into the sea to fake her death! Even if she's back right now, they can just go get a div

"Alright, alright, don't let your mood get affected by something like this." Winnie held Shawn's hand before she said, "Mr. Lefting, it's rare for you to be at Temperley Hall. Why don't you stay and eat with us? Since Nicole and Joshua haven't seen each other for a while, they'll probably take some time."How could Aurum be in the mood to eat?He wanted to leave that instant!However, he still needed to bring Joshua back, so he was forced to sit there.Gale would stay in Temperley Hall, and Peter would not be able to take care of Joshua alone, so Joshua would return home with him."I'm busy. I'll come back to get Joshua later," Aurum said.After that, he held Gale's hand and headed out.Gale was a bit hesitant, but Aurum seemed quite decisive, holding her hand and refusing to let go.There was nothing she could do but follow him.No one noticed Shawn narrowing his eyes slightly. His gaze was full of possessiveness as he stared at Aurum's hand, wanting to slice it off!Who gav

Aurum said, "Nicole can't recognize you now. It's only temporary. Winnie could not keep this up forever!"Gale lowered her head. "I used to think so too. But now, Nicole is heavily influenced by Shawn too…"She still remembered Shawn's promise.It seemed to be still echoing in her ears.He said to leave it to him.He said to trust him.Trust him like she trusted Aurum.Gale originally planned to do this, but… Shawn was really not worthy.He would never treat her with care like Aurum did, who always thought of her needs before his!Aurum frowned. "Shawn is really acting abnormal."Gale wanted to tell him that maybe all of this had something to do with Natalie when she saw him deep in thought.However, she could not bring herself to say it.It was better not to let Aurum think wildly without any concrete proof.After all, he and Natalie were destined to be lifelong partners.Gale smiled. "Mr. Lefting, your wedding with Ms. Yarn is coming soon. You are so busy, and you still
Skeletons Of The Marital Closet Chapter 942
From the moment he knew that Gale was the one he was looking for, he had already decided to end it!He would only marry the one he wanted!If he could not get married, he would die alone forever!Never compromise, never make do!Gale blinked, still a little bit unresponsive.No wonder when she mentioned marriage, Aurum's eyes dodged a little. It turned out that he had found someone he really wanted to marry."Does Natalie know about this?" Gale asked, "What are you going to tell her? And the Yarn family… Any parent who has lost their child would want to find their child as soon as possible!""I'm still thinking about how to tell Natalie and the Yarn family this news."Gale thought for a while and said, "Although this matter is a bit cruel to Natalie, she is an adopted daughter and has occupied Ms. Yarn's identity for more than 20 years. She should return her position to the original owner. As for the Yarn family, they definitely hope that their daughter will come back as soon a

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
