All Chapters of Skeletons Of The Marital Closet: Chapter 2011 - Chapter 2020

Shawn looked at Joshua again. "Now do you understand how I felt when you ranked me fifth?"Fifth was bad enough, but he was so reluctant to even place him there and even ranked Aurum directly behind him. Ha! Now, with Nicole's help, Shawn had taken sweet revenge, delivering a blow that left Joshua reeling.Joshua clutched his chest dramatically, feigning distress. "It's okay, it's okay. Nicole, go on."Nicole blinked, puzzled. "Joshua, is this ranking so hard to accept? Usually, parents are ranked first and second."Nicole tried to comfort him. "If you want to be second in my heart, you can be."A glimmer of hope sparked in Joshua's eyes."Daddy and Mommy can share the first place, and you can be second," Nicole said happily. "How about that?"Joshua was speechless. What was so great about that? He was still behind Shawn.Nicole looked at Shawn, confused. "Daddy, what's wrong with Joshua?"She was a bit uneasy."Nothing. Don't worry about him. So, Nicole, who's fourth in your

"I even know your bank account password."Gale frowned, feeling uneasy. "Shawn, be honest with me. Stop kidding around. Are you doing this because something happened? Or are you trying to prevent something in the future?" she said, pulling his earlobe gently.Shawn knew that such a sudden move would raise suspicions. Being evasive was not a solution. He glanced at their two children: one watching cartoons, the other tirelessly working on a Rubik's cube. It was a happy and heartwarming scene. Shawn cherished these moments with his family of four. He wanted to enjoy this kind of life forever and feared losing it.Shawn lowered his head onto her shoulder, "The Wood family has always been complex."Gale was taken aback. Since returning to Sea City with the children, she and Shawn had not discussed the Wood family in such seriousness.She asked, "Shawn, your stepmother and your stepbrother no longer pose any threat. Now, the main figures in the Wood family are your father, you, me, a

"No, no! You're being too pessimistic!" Galey shook her head repeatedly. "We will be very happy together and grow old watching Joshua and Nicole grow up, get married, and have children. We'll be an old man and old lady together."She nudged his nose. "I already have silver hair. Do I look like an old man?""Not at all, you don't!" Shawn chuckled softly. Galey wrapped her arms around his neck, feeling anxious despite his assurances, as if he might leave at any moment. She wanted to hold onto him, to feel his presence."You said you're afraid something might happen to you, so you've transferred all the shares to me… Aren't you worried something might happen to me?" Galey asked."Don't say silly things, I will protect you.""But what if, hypothetically..." Galey shrugged, using his words against him. "Isn't that what you just said? We're both human; accidents can happen unexpectedly in the future."Shawn replied, "Galey, haven't you forgotten... I am the president of Wood Group? I

Saying this, Shawn glanced at the time on his watch. "Gale will be here soon. Don't say anything suspicious in front of her. She's perceptive and tends to overthink, got it?"Joe sighed repeatedly. "I've seen men dote on their wives but never like you.""If you marry Summer, would you do the same as I did?" Shawn asked.Joe nodded. "I would.""Then what else is there to say?" Shawn left Joe speechless with his logical retort. Footsteps could be heard outside the door. They were soft and gentle, so everyone could tell it was Gale. Shawn nudged Joe with his foot and gestured with his eyes."Okay, okay, I get it." Joe nodded repeatedly. "Don't worry, I'll be tactful."Shawn replied softly, "That's for the best."As Gale walked in through the door, she smiled. "Oh? So many people here, Joe and Sonny.""Mrs. Wood, I've drafted all the terms of this contract, so I needed to sync up with Mr. Wood. Since he's fine with it, please review the contract," Sonny, the lawyer, greeted her.G

"When you meet the right person and fate comes knocking, why adhere to processes?" Joe's greatest wish now was to quickly crown Summer as his wife. Only by seeing her name officially logged in his family register did he feel he truly possessed her, giving him a sense of security. He wanted to marry her. When a man likes a woman, it would be that straightforward, that urgent. So, there was no need for women to wonder whether a man loved her or how much he did. True love is so passionate and fiery, you can feel it clearly.Gale thought for a moment. "That's one way to put it, but women tend to overthink things.""What doubts? Can you break it down for me? I just can't figure out what you women are really thinking," Joe asked.No matter how successful men were in their careers, they tended to be simple minded when it came to relationships. Joe frowned deeply as if facing a major dilemma. "You say it takes time, but Summer and I have known each other for so many years. I know her te
