Chapter 298
Susan lay on the ground, covered in blood, at the lowest end of the stairs. She was not moving at all but was still breathing upon closer inspection.Shawn walked over and stopped in front of her.The more he hated himself, the more he hated Susan!That woman ruined everything he had!"M…Mr. Wood…" Susan raised her head slowly and said, "Let me go… I…I really do know… that I was wrong now…""You can't take it anymore?""I was wrong. I shouldn't have taken Gale's place. I lied to you and hide things from you…"Shawn's eyes were cold. "Susan, this is just the start!"There was still a lot of torture waiting for Susan!He wanted Susan to think that death was mercy!"I…I was blinded by greed. I had a lapse in judgment, which is why I took Gale's place. I was wrong. Mr. Wood, you're a noble person. Please spare me!" Susan said weakly."Is taking Gale's place the only thing you did?!"Susan shuddered, not daring to say anything.Looking at that woman, Shawn wanted nothing more t
Chapter 299
In truth, the only person Shawn loved was himself.He was a selfish man!If she had not exposed the truth and allowed Susan to continue with her lies and deceit, the person lying on the ground in a puddle of blood, being whipped mercilessly, would have been Gale.She won. Susan had completely lost. There was no way Susan could ever make a comeback.She was victorious.Yet, in another way, Susan had won as well.Susan had successfully destroyed Shawn and Gale's relationship. She had hidden the truth of that night, lying to everyone. She repeatedly said that Gale had a bastard child, trying to get Shawn to get rid of the child!Under the moonlight, Shawn suddenly turned around. He looked up to the balcony.Gale met his gaze.His lips moved, and his voice was soft, so she could not hear him.However, Gale could guess what he said from how his lips moved."Galey."Galey.What a personal nickname.Who gave him the right to call her that?He was her enemy, her mortal enemy!G

He knew that there was a huge rift between the two of them. It would take a long time and a lot of patience to repair it.He could not rush things.For the moment, he was already happy that he could see her every day.Gale ignored him.She had yet to figure out how she would interact with Shawn, even though she just wanted to leave.However, he would not let her go.In the dining room, the table was filled with a luxurious breakfast. There were various cuisines, and the servants were waiting on them by the side. The whole meal was eaten through silence."From now on, I'll send you to and from work. There's plenty of space in the car," Shawn said.Gale rejected Shawn decisively, "No, I can just take public transport."The housekeeper let out a cough. Gale really did not give Shawn any leeway.However, Shawn acted like nothing had happened, not making a sound as he silently agreed.He could not just kidnap Gale into the car after all.Gale felt that way as well, so she took h

Gale looked around and saw that no one was looking at them, so she pulled at Summer's sleeve. "There's something I have to tell you.""Sure.""I found the man from that night."Summer asked in surprise, "Who is it? How did you find him? Are you sure it's him?"Gale nodded and said, "I'm sure. All the information adds up.""Who is it?""Shawn."Summer stared at Gale, not blinking at all. "What did you say?""It was him, for sure. After I got the new headphones, I found out after listening to Susan and my mother's conversation," Gale said.Summer sat next to Gale and was in a daze for a long time.That was too terrifying.It was huge news."No, let me calm down. I need to think. If it was Shawn, then your child was also his. He personally got rid of your child?!" Summer said.Gale nodded.Every time that was brought up, it opened up Gale's wounds again."Oh my, this is crazy. Gale…" Summer hugged her. "Don't be too sad."The person who understood her the most was always h

"Did you hear me?"Joe coughed before he walked forward mysteriously. "I have an idea."Shawn looked at him. "Speak.""Since it's just a change in the female lead, then we can still continue using these plans and documents. No one knows who Mrs. Wood is anyway, right? You can give this surprise to Gale," Joe said.He thought he was incredibly smart with that suggestion and felt quite pleased with himself.Shawn looked at him like he was an idiot."What? Isn't that fine? Gale wants some romance too," Joe said."Is there something wrong with your head? Gale designed the ring, and she had seen all those plans before. She knows that they were all made with Susan in mind. What do you think she is to throw all of that on her?" Shawn answered.Shawn would not do that at all.His feelings were Gale was not something a ring could represent.She was very precious. She deserved the best and deserved all his attention."You kept on praising yourself as some amazing ladies' man, but you

Gale could do it, but that was because she was the woman Shawn was head over heels in love with!They were not the same!Summer's temper would get her into trouble one day, and he would not be able to save her!"The employees who took part in the making of the ring and the announcement will all receive double overtime pay as compensation," Shawn said."It's so hard to guess what you're thinking, Mr. Wood. One moment, you want to give Mrs. Wood the most romantic experience in the city, and the other moment, you decide to stop it. What happened? Did you get a new lover?"Joe really wanted to shut Summer up.The whole meeting room was completely silent.Shawn calmly answered, "There's no new lover. I've always loved the same person."It had been Gale from the start and was Gale now. It would be Gale in the future as well.It would never change."Hahaha…" Joe immediately took over. "Mr. Wood, you really are a man among men. It's hard to find someone so single-mindedly loyal!"Su

It was the women's washroom! Why was he there?!Shawn calmly stood behind her. "Do you need help?""Shawn!" Gale could not take it and yelled, "You followed me in the morning, and you're following me into the washroom now. Are you a pervert?!" "I'm your husband."She clenched her teeth. "Don't forget, we signed a divorce agreement! When the time comes, it'll come into effect!"Shawn walked towards her. "Don't forget, before the divorce agreement is up, we're still husband and wife." "You…"Shawn walked closer, and Gale was forced to retreat until her back was against the sink.Shawn easily grabbed her and pulled her into his arms by the waist. "Galey."That night, when she was looking up at the balcony, he had called out to her soundlessly like that.At that moment, she heard it clearly.An indescribable feeling crept up into her head.Galey.Ha…"I have a proper name," Gale said."Has no one ever called you that?"Even though she did not want to admit it, she still a

"Don't look at me like that. I'm speaking the truth. Shawn, I'm a human. A living human with freedom. You can't control me like that!" Gale answered.He was even bothered by her talking to a male colleague. What was going through his mind? Why was he so strict?! "I just care…When I see you being so friendly with others, I get jealous and envious," Shawn said gently.He wanted to be more open-minded, but he could not.Shawn had always been someone who got what he wanted. He would eventually own everything he had his eyes on.Similarly, anyone who looked at the woman he loved deserved the death sentence!"I was just talking to him. It's not like I like him! Can you stop being so jealous?!" Gale answered. Shawn asked, "Then who do you like?"It was suddenly quiet."Galey, do you like me? Has your heart moved for me? Even if it's just a little." Shawn asked.Gale averted her gaze, not looking at him."If you don't answer, then I'll take it as a yes."Gale immediately said a
