Chapter 263
"I was… just speaking the truth!""What truth?! The truth of me marrying Shawn or the truth of my abortion?"No matter which one it was, it was not something Wendy would be able to handle!Any mother would feel hurt for their children!Susan gulped. "It…it was all just the truth! I didn't make anything up!"Gale's eyes were already reddened. "You stay right here. You're not allowed to go anywhere. You'd better pray that my mother's fine!""This has nothing to do with me!""Susan!" Gale violently shoved Susan and started to fight.Gale's parents were her bottom line. She would make Susan pay that day!Susan did not show any weakness, grabbing Gale's hair and pulling on it.When two women fought, it usually involved hair pulling and clothes being ripped.Those who passed by and saw the fight did not know what to do to help and just stood by watching.At that moment, in the Wood Group Headquarters, Shawn was having a meeting with a few executives in his office."Mr. Wood!

Shawn relaxed."I do want to kill you. So what? Are you not happy? I'll beat you until you are!" Gale said.At that moment, the doors to the operating theater suddenly opened. A doctor walked out with a serious expression. "The patient is in critical condition. We need a family member's signature and payment for the fees!"Shawn said, "Do everything to save her at all costs!"He knew that if anything happened to Wendy…Gale would collapse mentally."You have to save my mother. I'll do anything!" Gale clasped her hands together and stood in front of the doctor. "Please!""We'll do everything we can!"The doors closed again.Two hours had passed, but the surgery did not show any signs of ending!Gale's legs gave in, and she almost fell."Careful." Shawn walked forward and held her.Gale did not want his help and pushed him away. "Don't touch me!"He pursed his lips. "Why are you throwing your temper at me?""Didn't Susan only dare to do this because you've been supporting

He said, "Thankfully, you didn't lose."Shawn pulled up her sleeves and checked all around, making sure she was not injured.If Gale lost and Gale's face was injured, he still would not be able to do anything to Susan. Then he would really not know what to do.On the way, he had been worried that Gale would lose.Thankfully, Gale did not lose.Gale was stunned, not understanding what Shawn meant.She pulled her hand away and avoided his touch. "Since I can't beat her up today, I won't let her off if I see Susan again!""Leave her to me, don't interfere."Gale snorted, "Shawn, don't you keep insisting that you love me? Why are you still siding with Susan when it comes to her and me?!" He looked like he was chasing Susan away, but he was actually protecting Susan!"Are you jealous?" Shawn raised an eyebrow and asked.Gale was stunned again.She… was jealous? Shawn clearly said that he loved her, but between her and Susan, he would always treat Susan well. In truth, Gale

Only when she pushed the door to his room open did she understand.Lucas sat on the sofa. He no longer had his youthful and pleased expression on his face and looked incredibly old and tired.Paula was pouring him some tea."You're back. Come in. Close the door and sit," Lucas said.Gale did not say anything and looked at Shawn, who was behind her."Grandpa, why are you here?" Shawn walked in and said, "You even chased everyone in the corridors away.""It's because this is a family matter. I don't want anyone unrelated to overhear our conversation.""What do you want?"Lucas put down his tea and pointed at Gale. "I want you to get rid of her. Get a divorce immediately!"Shawn started to frown.Gale laughed. "Shawn, this time, I'm not the one asking for a divorce."Lucas still had a certain amount of power within the family. It would be challenging for Shawn to resist the pressure from his family to get a divorce.Gale wanted to see how long Shawn could resist. Furthermore

Lucas was stunned, not expecting her to agree so easily.The Wood family was so powerful. Their fortune was immense, but she did not want a single cent.Gale said, "When should we do it? I'll cooperate unconditionally." "W…What are you trying to do?""Not everyone covets money and power. Lucas, you should convince Shawn and make him agree," Gale said.Paule interrupted, "So are you saying that Shawn's the one who's not willing to get a divorce?"Gale smiled and answered, "You're right."Lucas and Paula's expressions changed rapidly.Lucas asked, "Shawn, you… don't want to get a divorce?"Shawn nodded. "Yes.""You must have gone crazy!" Lucas stood up furiously. "You can have any woman you want, but you don't want to get a divorce?!""Gale is the only one I want," Shawn answered honestly. His expression was incredibly calm, leaving no room for negotiation.Lucas watched him grow up and naturally knew his character.He was being serious.Paula's mouth was wide in surprise
Chapter 268
After a week, the doctor announced that Gale could leave the hospital.Shawn came to get her personally.Furthermore, after getting opinions from Joe and Fiona, he even bought a bouquet of flowers.Joe said, "No woman can resist fresh flowers."Fiona had said, "Mr. Wood, every woman likes getting presents."Shawn bought the most expensive roses from the shop.He stood in front of the hospital, leaning against his car. He had a suit on and looked incredibly cold and handsome. It was obvious that he was an incredibly rich man.He got a lot of second looks!All of the passersby were secretly glancing at him. Some girls even took out their phones to sneak pictures. Everyone was eagerly waiting to see what kind of woman he was waiting for.Gale came out with a mask on. She had no makeup on, and her hair draped softly over her shoulders. She looked small and thin. She shot Shawn a look before bending down and getting into the car.Shawn had been ignored.Even the flowers in his

He leaned in closer. "There's no room for discussion. If you prepare for pregnancy, then you can continue working. Otherwise, stay at home. I can afford it."Shawn always acted this way.He would always use various ways to force her into doing what she did not want to!Gale clenched her teeth. "Shawn, I hate you so much. Aren't you afraid that I'll purposely lose the child after I have yours to hurt you?!"He smirked when he heard that. "No, you won't.""I will! I will because I hate you!""Why do you call it my child?" Shawn asked in a low voice, "That would be your child too. Gale, you can't do something so ruthless."He really got her there.That was right. No matter how much Gale hated Shawn, there was no way she would hate the child.So, she was forced!"Prepare for it." Shawn leaned in closer, his breath brushing against her earlobes. "Have a child that's ours."In truth, he had his plans.Shawn thought that the moment Gale had their child, she would be forced to rema

She looked everywhere she could, but she found no trace of the earphones.Where was it?!Gale did not even spare the bedsheets!"What are you looking for?" Shawn suddenly said at the door.She jumped in fright and hurriedly stood up. "Nothing, it's just some personal belongings.""I had them throw away all your things in the servant's room."Gale's eyes widened. "Thrown away?!""They were just some material objects. I had the housekeeper buy everything anew," Shawn said, "You'll like them."There was nothing to like!He threw them away!No wonder she could not find the headphones!Gale could not voice out her difficulties and could only stare at him. "Please, don't throw my things away like that in the future!""What's so important? All of those things were just rubbish."In Shawn's eyes, the things that Gale wore and used were horrible. They were very cheap and of poor quality.He wanted to give her expensive and good things.Yet, she did not seem to appreciate it at al
