With that said, Mary picked up her bag and checked her documents. "I'll be going now.""Should I accompany you?""No need. You stay here to take care of Joshua," she said, looking at Gale. "Shawn's around. I can take a break."Mary teased him, "Men hardly can take care of kids. You'd better stay, considering Joshua and Shawn's relationship. Joshua's injury is still healing, and he needs lots of care."Mary walked toward the door. Joshua quickly called out, "Grandma, where are you going? Are you leaving already? Can't you stay a bit longer with me?""I have some errands to run." Seeing her grandson pining for her, Mary could not stop smiling. "I'll be back to keep you company.""Okay, Grandma. Hurry back. I'll miss you! Love you lots!"Shawn glanced at him. What a childish kid. How could he utter such cheesy words? Mary fell for it. "Alright, alright."Joshua looked reluctant, watching Mary leave. "Mom, it's a good thing you didn't go. If you left me alone with Shawn, I would'

Shawn's brow furrowed. Joshua complained, "He's not careful at all. I don't want him to take care of me. When I see his face, even if I have a bad stomach ache, I can't poop!"Gale was already laughing hysterically on the sofa."Fortunately, Shawn is a man. Otherwise, he'd have seen everything," Joshua continued."Do you think I wanted to see you naked?""But you did."Shawn coldly retorted, "You do know I physically have whatever you have."Joshua was speechless. He could not argue with that.Suddenly, Gale's phone rang. She checked and saw it was Aurum calling. She instinctively looked at Shawn. "I'll take this call outside.""Take it here." Shawn raised his hand to stop her. "Is there anything you want to keep from me?""I have no secrets with Aurum. I just didn't want you to get jealous." "I will get jealous only if you leave.""Fine." Gale nodded and answered the call."Hello, Aurum. What's up?" she asked softly.Aurum was quiet for a moment before asking, "Did you a

"Sorry, just act like I have never called. I lost my temper; my apologies.""I just feel... let's forget it." Aurum disconnected the call directly, not giving Gale a chance to speak.On the other end, Aurum suddenly clenched his phone and threw it forcefully to the ground!"Snap!"The phone instantly shattered into pieces. At that moment, Zoe entered the room. She witnessed the scene and did not dare to make a sound.What happened to Aurum? Why the sudden burst of anger? In all her years at the Leftings, she had never seen this side of him. He had always been polite, courteous and gentle. What happened?Aurum looked angry. It was an expression that did not become him.His chest heaved violently, anger burning within him. With Natalie gone, Joshua leaving, and Zoe about to move to Gale's place, who was left with him? He was alone.Aurum abruptly stood up, stepping directly over the shattered phone, his face devoid of expression. After a few steps, he noticed Zoe at the door."M

It did sound like something Joshua would say. Aurum muttered to himself in a low voice, "Joshua wishes for me to be his father. He hopes that Gale and I will be together. He repeatedly tries to ship us. I wonder if he still remembers?"After a few seconds, he added, "Ah, anyway, he speaks without restraint. How can I take him seriously?""Mr. Lefting, what did you say?" Zoe did not catch it, only seeing Aurum's mouth moving."Nothing." Aurum raised his head and said, "Mrs. Zoe, take care. The Lefting family will welcome you back anytime."Zoe replied, "I'm an old woman. When Joshua and Nicole grow up, I won't be able to take care of them. I have to go back to the countryside to retire and live out the rest of my life peacefully.""Mr. Lefting, you really should find a companion. Ms. Yarn has held you back for too long. You should find your true love.""Hmm, yes, Mrs. Zoe, I'll see you off."Aurum personally escorted Zoe to the car. At this moment, he behaved like his old self ag

"Who could be happy in a situation like this?" Shawn leaned back on the sofa, arms crossed. "He's in a bad mood. Are you feeling sorry for him? Do you want to go and keep him company?"Gale blinked, staring at him in confusion. "What are you talking about...""Gale, you told me yourself that you love Aurum."Her heart skipped a beat. Oh no, she forgot about that. Shawn brought it up again."I remember. Do you feel like it's not right to be with me?" Shawn continued."No, not at all!" Gale denied hastily, moving closer to him and wrapping her arms around his, "Shawn, listen to me. Let me explain..."He remained cool, arms still folded. Gale forcefully inserted her hand into his arm, holding onto him firmly. "Husband!""It's pointless." Shawn remained unmoved. How could she think that coquettish behavior was enough? Gale pursed her lips. Shawn has higher standards now. Calling him 'husband' or kissing him did not seem to have the same effect as before. Did he forget how he used

"Now all I want is to grow old with you."Shawn remained motionless and refused to even look at her. Gale went to him and tightly clung onto his arm. "I've wanted to explain this to you, but, like the whole issue with Joshua's identity, I just couldn't find the right time..."If Natalie had not suddenly taken Joshua hostage, Joshua's identity might have been kept a secret for a while longer. It was Gale trying to hide it; she just did not know how! Every time she wanted to speak, she was interrupted. She finally mustered the courage to say it, and Shawn still did not believe her!"Hey, don't you remember, when Natalie said Joshua was your son, I nodded in agreement. You were the one who didn't believe me and thought it was a plot...""What could I do? Saving Joshua was the priority; I wanted to explain to you later.""Now, I want to tell you that the person I love has never been Aurum, and yet, you still don't believe me."Gale sighed deeply. "It's so difficult for me."Shawn co

Gale rolled her eyes. Shawn gently pinched her chin. "Hmm? Quiet now, are we?" She met his gaze. "I'm just thinking about how to describe my relationship with Sam. I don't want to deceive you. Give me a moment to organize my thoughts."As soon as Gale finished speaking, she felt Shawn's gaze soften. He seemed less jealous. Sincerity has always proved to be the most effective weapon!"Actually, Sam and I… I did have feelings for him.""Is that the answer you thought about and want to tell me?""Hear me out. We grew up together, and he took great care of me. He was gentle, considerate, tall, and handsome. Which girl wouldn't like such a guy?""Later, we got engaged, spurred by our families. We were childhood sweethearts. It was a precious thing.""At that time, both of us were young and didn't understand what love was. We had never truly loved anyone before. My feelings for Sam were, at most, puppy love.""Those feelings never got to mature and stand the test of time. As you alr

Shawn retorted, "Don't you want to hear me say those three words?""Nope.""Hmm?""Not now. I'll tell you later. Besides, I never forced you to say those three words before," Gale said. Shawn pursed his lips. "I'll wait until you say it.""Hey, Shawn!"He was always a man of his word; he would surely stand his ground. How could she weasel her way out of this?Gale could only say in a very soft voice, almost a whisper, "I love you."As soon as she said that, Shawn responded, "Gale, I love you too."At that moment, her heart raced incredibly fast. The feeling of having love reciprocated was so wonderful. Shawn insisted on making her say those words so she could feel that way.Gale smiled radiantly, and she looked up at him. Their eyes locked, and they could see each other being reflected in their gazes."How much longer do you guys need?" Joshua's voice interrupted. "If you have time, please help me play the next episode of my cartoon. I've tried to avoid interrupting the bot

He can actually hear so clearly even at a distance and even while watching cartoons.Shawn did not answer.Joshua spoke, "I never thought that Mom used to tell you she loved Uncle Aurum. Ah, if only I had known earlier.""What would you have done?"Naturally, he wanted to answer that he was going to tell Uncle Aurum and then play matchmaker between them."Cough, cough, cough!" Suddenly, Gale broke her silence and started coughing violently.She did not want to let Joshua answer.Seeing that she was about to persuade Shawn to drop the matter successfully, Gale could not afford to fail at this critical moment! Joshua got her message and held his tongue. "Nothing, I'll continue watching cartoons."It was funny how they thought Shawn would let it go."Afraid to speak? Joshua, you're not as fearless as I imagined." Shawn deliberately provoked himHowever, Joshua did not take the bait. He grinned and said, "Shawn, this trick won't work on me. She can say it's not true, but the poin

At that time, she had no idea that Shawn was willing to let her and Nicole go. Gale thought he was just comforting her, saying things to reassure her. Now, thinking back... she had misunderstood him."Do you believe me now?" Shawn asked. "Yes. You have been behaving. I started trusting you and letting my guard down.""Why didn't you clarify with me that you don't love Aurum?""I thought you already figured it out..."Shawn looked at her seriously. "Gale, I've never asked you outright to tell me you love me. But, when I ask, I need affirmation. I may need it over and over again. Only then will I truly believe and keep believing that you do."To everyone, Shawn has always been a confident, even arrogant person. Born into a wealthy family, he could easily obtain everything he wanted. He rarely cared about anything. However, everything changed completely after meeting Gale.He had been constantly seeking Gale's affirmation and testing her sincerity. Even after getting an answer, he
