Similarly, she could not forget how brave Shawn looked when he saved her.Shawn said, "I won't let you go."No one can stop him.He would kill everything in his path.All he wanted was her."Galey, you have feelings for me. When Susan held you hostage, you didn't want me to kneel down, and you didn't want me to cripple myself. At that moment, you were just thinking about me. Those feelings were real. I'll remember them forever," Shawn emphasized.The fact that she had opposed it and was thinking about him reaffirmed Shawn's decision to save her at any cost.Gale shook her head and said, "No, I just didn't want to owe you anything!"How could she possibly repay him for saving her life?!Shawn sighed. "Susan kidnapped you because of me. In the end, I owed you. I was the one who didn't protect you."Gale wanted to say something, but he lowered his head and quickly kissed her on the lips.She was stunned.Why did he suddenly steal a kiss like that?"I have no way of shutting y

He failed to stop her.Shawn called out, "Galey, come back."Gale did not turn back."Gale!"She quickened her pace instead, walking out of the room.Shawn lay on the bed and cursed under his breath. "Damn!"He was too weak. He could not get off the bed at all. Otherwise, he would not have let her leave!Looking at his left hand that could not move, Shawn had a look of frustration on his face.The moment Gale left, the housekeeper entered, "Mr. Wood.""Have Joe find the most effective scar treatment ointment in the world," Shawn ordered."Yes.""Also, have Fiona come over. I should deal with all the things that have been piling up at the company."The housekeeper was surprised. "Mr. Wood, you just woke up…""Just do as I say!"In front of outsiders, Shawn was always so cold. He never had any trace of warmth.Only Gale got to see what he was like in private.Shawn suddenly remembered something. "Right. What happened to Susan?""She was sent back to the mental hospital,

He could not allow another kidnapping to happen!At the entrance of the hospital, Gale had just opened the door when a black Mercedes drove up to her."Ma'am, please get in. We'll send you back to Temperley Hall," a bodyguard said politely.Lucas really was on guard against her. He did not give her any freedom at all.Gale nodded and was about to get in the car when she heard Summer's voice. "Gale!"The guards immediately held her back."What are you doing?" Summer pushed back. "Who are you?"Gale reached out and pulled Summer into the car. "Let's go. Ignore it.""Did Shawn send so many people to keep an eye on you?""They're not his. It's Lucas."Summer clicked her tongue. "There are so many schemes among the rich!""Why are you at the hospital?" Gale asked, "Were you looking for me?""Of course. Could I be looking for Shawn? Even though he saved you, what he did to you before this is still unforgivable."Gale fell silent."Gale, are you having a change of heart?" Summer

Gale took it.From a bracelet to a pendant.Something that was broken really could not be made to look like its original form.The heart was the same."Thank you. The fact that this jade was preserved is the best possible result for me," Gale said."A jade pendant is nice too. Hurry up and put it on. It'll keep you safe and make sure everything goes well.""No, I want to put it on my mom."Summer nodded. "That works too!"Gale smiled. "Let's go to the nursing home.""Okay."Gale asked the driver to change his course, but the driver was not that willing to do it. "Ma'am… I…""I'm not going to see Shawn. Is that not okay?""I'll ask about it." The driver asked Lucas, and Lucas agreed.Summer saw everything but said nothing about it.She knew that Gale was like a tool without any freedom at that moment. She looked like she was surrounded by wealth, but she was not happy at all.What was the point of living if one was not happy?At the nursing home, Wendy had been trans

He looked at the time and asked plainly, "Where's she?""Ma'am is at Temperley Hall," Fiona answered."Bring her here.""Ah…"Everyone knew that Lucas had issued an order that Gale was not to step out of Temperley Hall without his permission!Shawn raised an eyebrow. "What? You don't understand me?"Fiona quickly answered, "It's already so late. She must already be asleep."That excuse was perfect. Even Fiona wanted to applaud herself!Sure enough, Shawn fell silent for a moment.Yes, it was almost past midnight.She had suffered a lot the past few days, and she was probably not in great condition.Thinking about it, Shawn said, "Get the doctor here.""Yes, Mr. Wood."After the doctor entered, he said politely, "Mr. Wood, are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?""I want to leave the hospital temporarily. Probably about two hours. Figure out a way to stabilize the wound so I can move about," Shawn said.The doctor was speechless.Fiona was shocked.Where was Shawn going

So, he wanted to come over to the hospital to have a look and ease his anxiety.He ended up hearing what was said. He was so angry!Shawn asked, "Isn't it because you restricted her freedom and stopped her from coming to see me? Otherwise, why would I have to go see her?""She has to keep as far away from you as possible!""Then why was she in the room when I woke up?"Lucas was stunned. "That's…"Shawn said calmly, "It's because you knew that only she would be able to wake me up and take care of me. When you needed her, you had her come here. When you don't need her anymore, you toss her away just like that."Just thinking about how much Gale had to suffer from his grandfather made Shawn feel a fire in his heart.If it were anyone else, they would have already suffered the consequences."I don't care. You and Gale have to get a divorce this instant! She can't keep staying by your side. I won't have your father's tragedy happen to you. I don't want to send both my son and gran

He knew that his marriage with Gale would only face even more opposition from the Wood family if he gave in to his grandfather!So, he could not retreat. He had to win!Looking at the night sky out the window, Shawn thought about a perfect and happy marriage. He felt that a family blessing was needed for it.Yes, he would get it for Gale.The day would come.At eight the next day, gentle footsteps could be heard outside the ward, just like what Shawn wanted.Gale was there.He could immediately tell that it was her from the footsteps.However, Gale stood at the door, hesitating for a long time before she opened it.She had just woken up when she was sent here by the driver. No one told her anything the whole way.She did not know what had happened at all.However, Gale could guess that there had to have been some conflict between Shawn and Lucas.One would not let her get close to Shawn.The other insisted on seeing her."Come in. What are you waiting for outside?" Shawn'

"Also, Shawn, why would I give you a child?""Have you ever treasured me? Do you know what love is? I still remember how much you've hurt me and humiliated me!""My mother's still unconscious. The doctor said that the medicine had been given to her a month late. If it had been earlier, she would not be like this right now. She could wake up at any moment!""Do you still remember that bracelet? I couldn't get it fixed, so it's become a pendant. I placed it around my mother's neck. Back then, you could have just given it back to me, but you insisted on breaking it!"There was too much pain. She could not even finish.Gale said everything that came to her mind, and her eyes started to redden.Shawn raised his hand to wipe away the tears, but she avoided it."I feel like your grandfather is right. The two of us are incompatible. One of us has to die for the other to live. There's no future for us."Gale turned around to leave after that."Gale!""Come back!"However, she walked

Gale thought about it and shook her head. "No, I can't leave right now.""Are you regretting it? Do you have your eyes on the Wood family's riches?" Lucas looked at her. "Gale, stop dreaming. As long as I'm alive, I won't let you get what you want!"She said firmly, "I will leave, but not right now!"Her mother was still unconscious, and Shawn's arm was still recovering. She could not just throw everything aside and leave.Her heart would still be here even if she left. What was the point of that?If Gale left, she had to leave and never come back."Haha, I knew you'd regret it! Gale, I can't let you have what you want. The Wood family can't allow you to stay!" Lucas said."So you used Susan as bait to get me to come here.""I won't let that despicable woman off easily. She'll be miserable for the rest of her life. Compared to her, I'm being very nice to you, Gale!"Gale took a step back. "I said it very clearly. I have to make sure everything is properly handled before I leav

Meanwhile, in the hospital, Shawn was on the bed, and he held a document in hand but had not flipped a single page for a long time.Fiona stood by the side, not daring to make a single sound.In his many years of experience by Shawn's side, Shawn's mood was incredibly… bad.It was horrible!Shawn might be looking at the document, but he could not read a single word."Mr. Wood, why don't… Why don't we stop here for today? Let's deal with things tomorrow?" Fiona tried asking.Shawn heavily slammed the document on the table."M…Mr. Wood…""Out.""Yes!"Shawn rubbed his temples, ordering after a while, "Come back!"Fiona turned around. "Mr. Wood, what are your orders?"Shawn fell silent."Actually, if you miss Mrs. Wood, you could give her a call. Even though you can't see her, you might be able to relieve your thoughts just by hearing her or looking at her through a video call," Fiona suggestedShawn coldly looked at him. "Did I ask you to speak?"Fiona lowered her head.O
