Chapter 122
She was so far apart that she could not hear what the two of them were talking about and only vaguely heard the word 'son'.She was also very interested in Paula's son!Maybe, the truth about Alex's death can be discovered through this person!"Shawn, so you have a half-brother?" Gale asked tentatively."Shut up.""I'm just asking.He was impatient, and he had no intention of continuing the conversation.Gale wanted to ask, but she swallowed it again when she met Shawn's eyes.'Take your time, don't be in a hurry.'The hastier she was, the more likely to fail.If Shawn finds out that she's looking for the truth, she will be screwed.After breakfast, Gale came to the company.As soon as she walked into the jewelry department, she saw a person sitting at her workstation, and her neighboring colleagues were hiding far away.She took a closer look, only to find that it was Susan.Susan crossed her legs and rummaged through her workstation. Some of the design drawings were dam

Gale did not even want to look at that design.So, when she stood in the president's office and handed the design to him, she said, "I have a... very small request."Shawn did not lift his head and said, "Speak.""Can you not declare to the public that this ring was designed by me?"She was really afraid of ruining her reputation in the jewelry design industry!Shawn scrutinized the design at hand.Indeed... a very uncouth style. It screamed new money and looked cheap, without the dignity of a high-end luxury product.Gale hurriedly clarified, "This is all designed according to Susan's desires. She steered the creative process all the time. It all represents her personal vision, not mine.""But, this is coming from you.""Well, you can find anyone else to do it."Shawn raised his eyebrows deeply. "So you don't want to admit that you designed the wedding ring?"Gale said politely, "It's so ugly. It lowers my reputation. Shawn, you can give this promotional opportunity to othe

"Okay, if this keeps up, your bonus next month will be a fat one."She suddenly felt confident.Money is too important to her now.Her father needed money in prison to avoid being targeted.Her mother needed special medicine.She must do her best to change her current predicament.Shawn's eyes swept over her gently.Unexpectedly, Gale's design talent was so strong that Lovito became an instant hit, which was beyond his expectations.If she was allowed to follow her normal life trajectory, she must have made a big splash in the jewelry industry, a top designer second to none.However, in Gale's normal life trajectory, there would not be Shawn.The person who stayed by her side and grew old with her would only be Sam.Thinking of this, Shawn's eyes suddenly darkened."Oh yes!" Joe remembered one thing. "Shawn, you can find someone else for the film and television department. I can't do it.""Others don't have your abilities.""I can't anymore. That's a department set up for

"Look into it again. Don't let people find out," Shawn said.Given the instruction, Fiona immediately responded, "Okay, I'll do it right away."Shawn waved his hand, leaned back on the chair, and closed his eyes.The phone on the table suddenly rang.He picked up the receiver and said, "What's the matter?""Mr. Wood, Sam from Carson Group, wants to see you. He is at the front desk now."Sam?"Let him come in.""Okay, Mr. Wood."Five minutes later, Sam walked in.He was wearing casual sportswear with his hands in his pockets, looking relaxed.Not at all, like a disgraced loser who just lost his company.Shawn sneered deeply. "From my company's perspective, I lost to you and was dismissed by the board of directors. Now, I can only go abroad to avoid shame. Well, I used this holiday to do something I want to do."Shawn asked, "From what perspective would you have won over me?""Your love life."The bitterness in Shawn's mouth was even deeper."You are too late. She won't

If he does not want her to die, she would not be allowed to die!At this moment, Gale stood there quietly by the window of the jewelry department, watching Sam's figure downstairs slowly walking away.She dared not to send him off for fear that Shawn would know.She could only watch him leave.The Wood Group acquired Fantastic Jewels, and the shareholders and directors dismissed Sam. His father asked him to go abroad and come back when the matter was over.To others, Sam said that he was traveling to relax.Only Gale knew he was leaving to help her find the truth."I'll wait for you to come back, wait for you..." Gale whispered to herself, "I believe that the day when the truth will be revealed is not far away."Finding out the truth was what gave her the will to live.Summer came over and said, "What are you looking at?"She shook her head. "I was just zoning out.""There's a celebration party in the evening, do you want to go? You're a big hero of Lovito.""I..."Gale wa

The driver asked, "Mr. Wood, are we returning to Temperley Hall?"Shawn said deeply, "No. Go to River View." The driver was stunned for a few seconds before responding, "Okay."The number of times Shawn went to the River View was close to none. How would he suddenly think of the past today?However, he had no right to ask more questions.Shawn sat in the back seat and closed his eyes.Without Gale… it was really boring.He grew accustomed to her existence.Well, habits are the scariest and most difficult thing to change.That was why... Shawn went to River View. Speaking of which, Susan was the woman he wanted to marry. Who was Gale?Nothing!In the apartment, Susan opened the door and saw Shawn standing outside. She screamed in surprise, "Mr. Wood! You're here!""Yes."She immediately hugged him affectionately. "You haven't come to me for a long time. I'm here every day, looking for you, and you're cold to me..."Shawn showed no expression on his face.Susan poured him a

However, if she did not answer, Shawn would be suspicious!Sure enough, Shawn did not hear an answer and turned around with a gaze that could penetrate people's hearts.How can Susan be able to fight against Shawn?She dared not look into his eyes at all.Shawn said, "Have you forgotten? Or..." It was not her.It was the people under him who made a mistake."Mr. Wood, actually I...I..." Susan lowered her head, looking like she was about to cry. "I have always been reluctant to recall that night."Why?""When it first happened, I was so scared. I lost my virginity, and I didn't even know who that man was..."Seeing her cry, Shawn frowned deeply.Susan added, "So I didn't dare to mention it, and I was trembling all day. I didn't know that person was you until you found me. If it were someone else, I would simply die... ""I just remember it was so dark and painful... The first time to a girl is so precious, and I didn't expect to lose it under such circumstances. At that time,

Shawn put away his mobile phone, but he was frowning.In order to create a romantic atmosphere, Susan specially arranged a candlelight dinner.A candlelight dinner accompanied with champagne and red wine along the river view.Susan changed into a silk slip dress. The cut of the dress opened to the chest, which was very revealing.She sprayed perfume and curled her hair... She was on a mission to seduce Mr. Wood to her bed tonight!She could not delay it any longer!"Mr. Wood, come here, let's toast." Susan thoughtfully poured red wine for him. "This is the first time we are having dinner together."Shawn clinked glasses with her and gulped it.No matter what Susan said, he was silent. He would just reply 'okay' and continue drinking.Susan took the initiative to sit next to him. "Mr. Wood, I'll serve you." The shoulder strap slipped off her shoulders. She thought no man could resist this kind of temptation.However...Shawn never even glanced at her.Susan was not convinced
