All Chapters of Skeletons Of The Marital Closet: Chapter 1991 - Chapter 2000

"Alright, I'll go prepare some tea and snacks."Aurum tossed the walkie-talkie aside and stood with his hands on his hips, his expression dark and menacing. Ivy watched his back silently, knowing that Aurum was contemplating whether to keep her confined or to take her to see Shawn. He was weighing the pros and cons.After a while, Aurum turned around, his gaze lingering on her with a meaningful look. "Come here."Ivy complied."Take off your clothes."She did not move, instead covering her front. "What do you want to do?""Do it yourself, or do you need my help?""Tell me why you want me to undress first!""I will conduct a full body search. What if you're hiding something and give it to Shawn the moment you see him?" Aurum replied. Aurum had meticulously planned each step to get to where he was today. He could not let everything be ruined by Ivy. Absolutely not!A body search? Ivy actually felt a sense of relief."Fine." She bit her lip. "To prove my innocence, to show tha

Joshua quickly argued, "She's always beautiful! She looks beautiful now too!""I mean, a happy Ivy looks even better!"Ivy patted Nicole's head. "I understand what you mean, Nicole. Thank you both for coming to see me.""Good thing we came, or we wouldn't have known you were sick. You looked even prettier last time when you smiled," Nicole said.A person's mental wellbeing is reflected directly on their face. Even the kids noticed Ivy's weariness and exhaustion, and Gale understood too. However, she did not get it. Ivy had Aurum now. Her career was smooth sailing, her love life was thriving, so what could be troubling her? Was it still about what happened that night with Paul? Gale only dared to think about it, not to ask.So she looked at Aurum. "You're not doing a great job as a boyfriend. Since Ivy has been with you, she hasn't become happier. You have a lot of responsibility.""Exactly!" Joshua chimed in. "Uncle Aurum, how are you taking care of Ivy? If you can't, let me do i

It was hidden in her mouth. Ivy had been holding it there the entire time. The bug was too important. It was the only evidence she had, and she had to get it to Shawn. If Aurum discovered the bug, he would realize she had never intended to submit to him. Who knows, he might use even more brutal methods against her.Earlier, Ivy and Shawn never had a chance to get close. With Aurum constantly watching, she could not pass it to him. After much thought, Ivy used the hug to slip the bug into Joshua's pocket. Joshua, despite his young age, was clever and sharp. He would not let her down. She pinned all her hopes on him."Are you satisfied with my performance?" Ivy withdrew her gaze and turned to Aurum. "Can you trust me now?""What have you done to make me trust you?""Aurum, suspicious people don't live happy lives.""Not getting the person you want is what truly makes one unhappy."Ivy asked, "You still haven't given up on Gale? Aren't you going to marry me?"Aurum lifted her chin.

At that moment, Gale and the children were all there; if a conflict had erupted, they could have been in danger! Thankfully, Joshua kept his composure. Truly, he was Shawn's son through and through. Shawn gripped the steering wheel, pressed the gas pedal, and raced toward Aurum's residence.Ivy must have been in trouble. Maybe she had been exposed. Otherwise, why would she take leave from the set and look so haggard at the Lefting's? Has Aurum already taken control of her?Shawn opened the bug, connected it via Bluetooth, and after a crackling static, Aurum's voice came through. Ivy's voice was there too. On the way to Aurum's house, Shawn listened through the entire contents of the bug.Sure enough, Aurum had not succeeded. This evidence was just too perfect. If Shawn remembered correctly, Aurum had placed the bug in Ivy's bag, but Ivy unexpectedly turned the tables and recorded Aurum's incriminating evidence. Well done!After all this time, Shawn finally had solid proof. Gale wou

Shawn had the confidence of a man in the comfort of his own home."Since I dared to come alone, I'm confident I'll be taking Ivy with me. Aurum, do you think you can stop me?" Shawn said.Shawn had long sensed something amiss with Ivy. Her worn-out appearance, pale face, not even makeup could conceal it, she had lost all her vitality. Clearly, she had been mistreated by Aurum.However, Gale was right beside him, and the two children were there too. Shawn had kept quiet and suggested leaving early. He could not involve his family; he had to ensure their safety. He did not want Gale and the children to witness this scene.So, Shawn planned to first send them back to Temperley Hall before returning. Unexpectedly, Joshua surprised him by handing over the bug. Shawn had been fully prepared for this confrontation with Aurum. In the entire Sea City, no one could match him."Whether I can stop you, let's find out. Shawn, you're overly confident!" Aurum said.As Aurum spoke, he glanced ar
