Chapter 1761

She had a hunch about where he had gone.Upon hearing this, Joshua exclaimed, "Oh, I see, you wanted Uncle Joe to come in, but you were too embarrassed to do it yourselves! Now that I've done it, you're blaming me! Is there any justice in this world?"Gale cleared her throat and withdrew her hand, saying, "No blame to be had. You did great! Really great! Absolutely fantastic!""Exactly." Joshua loved to be praised. "I couldn't let Uncle Joe stand out there alone, in the cold wind, worrying and fretting..."Gale asked, surprised, "I didn't expect that you and Joe were so close.""That's right, you women wouldn't understand the friendship between us men!""When did you and Joe become friends? I'm curious."Gale was puzzled.Since Joshua arrived in Sea City, she had not noticed him interacting much with Joe. Also, at the time, Joshua's identity had not been revealed, so he and Joe did not seem very close.Shawn said with a deep smile, "Their friendship was established when you we

As she spoke, her voice grew quieter, but she looked more excited.Shawn made sense! What if, on the way or at the entrance of Summer's apartment, they suddenly felt a spark, a sudden blaze of passion? It was entirely possible! Calling now would ruin the mood."You're right." Gale nodded repeatedly, like a chicken pecking at grains. "I'll wait until tomorrow to ask Summer in person!""That's my guess. Who knows, maybe Summer is waiting for you to call. You girls always have a lot to say, right?""No rush, no rush. There's no hurry."Gale thought Summer might be shy and reluctant to agree to Joe at Temperley Hall, so she needed three days to consider. Now that they were both gone, what else was there to consider? They were together.Gale could not help but say, "If they become a couple... oh... the playboy suddenly becomes a devoted boyfriend. Summer, the fierce and decisive career woman, suddenly turns into a delicate and gentle girl."Besides, their foundation is rather solid.

Gale racked her brains, guessing, "A woman. So, is she an old flame? First love? Lost love?""How would I know how Joe defines her?" Gale silently noted that she must remind Summer tomorrow to go find Joe and clarify things. Joe must not have any lingering feelings for a former lover."Will this affect them being together?" Gale asked."No, it won't. These are all things from many years ago. At that time, Joe was still in college."Oh. So long ago. She thought it was something else entirely. Who, in their youthful days, did not have some beautiful memories of first love or unforgettable feelings?Gale felt happy."All sorted, they must move fast to be together, lock it in. I'll just wait peacefully for the wedding!" Gale said.Suddenly, she remembered something and looked up at Shawn. "Oh, I ran into Aurum and Ivy at the company gate today. Actually, I think they have something going on too. They are quite well suited for each other!"Shawn's large hand landed on the back of

Her voice became softer and softer, but her expression grew more excited.Shawn gently touched her long hair, accompanied by his thoughtful words. "Gale, your intentions are good. However, everyone has their own journey. Some bitterness must be tasted to be understood, and some detours must be taken to reach the destination."In life, whether in relationships or careers, there are no shortcuts. The destination one wants to reach requires one's own effort and exploration.Shawn and Gale had completely opposite views. However, their thoughts did not clash; instead, they respectfully heard each other out and understood each other.As the night deepened, Shawn's magnetic voice had a soothing effect on her. No matter what he said, Gale felt inclined to nod in agreement."You make sense, but I still want to try to help them avoid as many detours and pitfalls as possible, to find happiness a little earlier and a little easier.""Right, so we can offer advice and suggestions, but we can'

The morning sun rose, casting its radiance on the ground with a refreshing breeze blowing. Autumn had arrived, and there was still a hint of chill in the air. The servants were sweeping the fallen leaves, the gardeners were tending to the flower beds, and the kitchen was preparing breakfast. Everything was in order as usual.Suddenly, a car sped in. Then another car arrived, followed by yet another. Three cars in total, all parked neatly at the entrance of Temperley Hall. The housekeeper was taken aback. Who could be arriving like this? What was going on?Not until he saw who got out of the three cars did the housekeeper, with no time to think, hurriedly greet them!"Mr. Wood, Mr. Warm, Ms. Yarn, welcome, please come in, what a surprise to have all three of you here all of a sudden!" The housekeeper greeted them with a smile, politely addressing them.He thought these three elders had planned to come together.Lucas looked at Peter. "Hey, why did you come so early today?"He then

However, before she fell back to sleep, she heard the sound of Shawn's slippers shuffling on the carpet as he walked toward the door.Shawn opened the door. "What's the matter?""Mr. Wood, Lucas, Peter, and Mary are all here, having tea in the living room," the housekeeper reported."What? All three of them are here?""Yes, so I hurried to inform you both as well."The housekeeper dared not look into the master bedroom, only hoping that Gale was already awake and had gone downstairs to check.Shawn asked, "Did they come together or separately?""Uh... they came at the same time, but each in their own car. I'm not very sure about the details. They look quite normal though," the housekeeper said.That puzzled Shawn a bit. What could have prompted the elders to come so early in the morning and without any notice?"I see. I'll go down immediately."He was about to turn around when he heard Gale's voice behind him. "What? Mom and Dad are here? Grandfather too?"Gale had already g

Ah, women are always kept in the dark. She felt her heart ache for Gale.Mary glanced at Shawn beside her with scrutiny and disapproval.Shawn, being who he was, immediately noticed. What had he done? What mistake had he made to incur his mother-in-law's disapproval?"Mom, what's wrong?" Gale also found it strange. "You're acting as if I'm pitiful and suffered greatly."Every time Mom saw her, it was all warmth and smiles. Today, she sighed as soon as she arrived.Mary smiled, a bit forced. "Nothing. Just missed you and the two kids, so came over early. Sorry to disturb you and Mr. Wood, all three of us came before you were even up.""If you wanted to see Joshua and Nicole, why didn't you call me? I could have brought them over tonight for dinner. It's such a simple thing.""It's fine, you're busy, so I thought I'd make a quick and convenient trip."After saying this, Mary glanced at Shawn again. This time, her disapproval was even more apparent."Mom, Joshua and Nicole haven'

"You!" Lucas raised his cane. "Do you want me to spell it out, expose you, and give you no respect?""Grandpa, just say it outright, I can't guess.""Fine, I'll oblige you!"With that, Lucas pulled out the photos and slammed them on the table. The photos were scattered all around the table."Take a good look at them yourself, what is this?" Lucas pointed at the photos. "How could you be caught in such compromising photos? If Gale finds out, will there ever be peace in this family again?"They were left at my doorstep. It's a warning! Once they circulate, the reputation of our Wood family will be greatly affected. Have you thought about that?"The more he spoke, the angrier Lucas became."She's the one you wanted to marry. You sacrificed for her, remained celibate for four years, and decided never to marry for her sake, disregarding whether the Wood family could continue its lineage. Yet, this is how you treat her in the end?"Shawn, are you out of your mind?""You've been livi

All the elders came to Temperley Hall. Could it be that they all received the photos? The person behind this, seeing that the photos did not succeed in causing discord between him and Gale, was unwilling to give up. They just want to use these photos to disrupt the peace of the Wood family.Shawn originally thought that Gale trusted him and that he would not meet Ivy alone again after explaining the situation with the photos. He thought that was the end of it, but there was more to come."Explanations? Understanding?" Lucas could not quite grasp it. "You didn't cheat? You didn't have any dealings with this woman? Are the photos fake?" "No, the photos are real." Lucas became even more confused. Shawn explained, "The photos are real, but it's not the whole story. They were intentionally taken by paparazzi to create an intimate atmosphere. The woman in the photos is Ivy, whom Gale also knows." "So, this is a misunderstanding?" "Yes." Shawn nodded. "A misunderstanding. I've alr

The emotions among this big family can also create rifts and cracks, making everyone uncomfortable."The person who distributed the photos to you probably knew that these photos wouldn't cause any rifts between me and Gale, so they aimed at you guys. Even if it just makes us argue for a while, it's not for nothing," Shawn said casually.At least, it can stir up some trouble. People often could not control themselves when emotions run high and end up saying hurtful things. These words would become thorns in their hearts afterward, disrupting the harmony in the Wood family.Otherwise, the photos, painstakingly taken, would just be in vain. If they wanted to publish the photos online, it would be extremely difficult because the public relations department of the Wood Group is always watching, ready to delete any posts at the slightest hint of trouble. There was simply no way they could spread. If they were posted online, Shawn could easily track down and locate the person who sent the
