Chapter 570
Not many people came to Gale's grave, just close relatives and friends.Everyone stood quietly behind Shawn, unable to bear to disturb him.Even Summer remained silent.She knew how regretful Shawn was because of his silver hair.What deep yearning must it be to make a person turn gray overnight...At this moment of silent mourning, the housekeeper suddenly came in a hurry, and the sound of his footsteps was very clear."Mr. Wood!"Shawn frowned and looked at the housekeeper with displeasure. "Is this the time to interrupt? You don't even understand the rules!""Mr. Wood, this matter is very important... I have to report to you now.""Speak!" The housekeeper said hastily, "A fishing boat picked up a corpse in the sea half an hour ago! It must be a female corpse! But..."Before the housekeeper finished speaking, Shawn had already walked down the mountain."Prepare the car immediately!"His voice echoed on the back hill.Shawn did not even have the patience to listen to th

"Uncle, come and identify her?" she said.Peter was stunned for a while when he was called, and then pointed to his nose. "Me?""Yes, is there anything obvious about Gale? A birthmark, or a scar or something."Peter shook his head. "No. She was very good when she was a child, and she didn't have any scars from falling." As he said this, Peter's heart skipped a bit.How could a female corpse suddenly appear?Did someone deliberately arrange it to make Shawn completely give up?Or… the plan failed, and Gale drowned!Peter almost fainted at that thought.He could not wait to find Aurum, to get rid of his anxiety!These days, Peter had been suppressing his concerns and worries, playing the role of a sad father, and had not contacted anyone proactively for fear of arousing suspicion!"Scar..." Shawn frowned and suddenly thought of it.Summer's words inspired him!Shawn immediately reached out, pulled off the female corpse's collar, and looked at her neck.However... he could no

She was so courageous as she pulled the thread out.A piece of crystal clear jade pendant appeared in front of everyone.The second the jade pendant appeared, everyone's expressions completely changed!Summer gasped. "Jade pendant! This is Gale's jade pendant! I gave it to her with my own hands!"Summer remembered clearly that Wendy's jade bracelet was broken, and Gale found it and tried to fix it.Peter heard what she said, ran up to take a look, and fell to the ground with a bang.He kept saying, "This, this jade pendant...is Gale's. It's her mother's relic! I gave it to her, and she wore it around her neck!"Shawn also remembered it.He bought that jade bracelet and broke it with his own hands.Gale's heartbroken expression at that time was still fresh in his memory.Now, the jade pendant appeared on this corpse.For Gale, the meaning of this jade pendant was too important, and she could not throw it away. She would only keep it safe and wear it on her body.At this mome

"Gale!" Shawn shouted out in grief!No response.The sea was churning, and the tide was ebbing and flowing.She left.She would not be coming back.Far away, by the window, Aurum put down the binoculars in his hand.He had clearly seen the change in Shawn's expression just now.Shawn buried Gale in Temperley Hall, Shawn's turned white all night, and Shawn firmly believed that as long as the body was not found, Gale may still be alive… which caused the appearance of the female corpse.He hoped this would make Shawn completely give up!As for the jade pendant... Of course, it was provided by Gale!Aurum pressed the earphones in his ears. "It was done as you wished. Now he should completely believe that you have been buried in the sea."A soft female voice came from the earphones. "Thank you."The voice was clearly Gale's!Aurum sighed lowly. "Is that all you have to say?""I don't know how to express my gratitude. You have done so much for me.""As long as you are safe."

Looking at Shawn like this, Gale could not express how she felt in her heart.How should she remember this man, Shawn?He drove her to death and ruined her life.However, because of her death, he turned gray overnight.Who would be able to judge if this love was right or wrong? Gale only wishes that… her next few years would be peaceful and the children would be safe!Her hands were covering her lower abdomen, and her gaze was firm and determined....Four years later, at the Wood Group, a Rells Reyce stopped, and Fiona trotted forward and opened the car door. "Mr. Wood."Shawn bent down to get out of the car with awe-inspiring eyes.In the sun, his silver hair was particularly eye-catching.This had become his trademark!In the past four years, the silver hair had not affected Shawn's good looks. On the contrary, it added a bit of character to him!Handsome and charming!His outline and facial features were simply the most satisfying artwork carved out of heaven!Howev

Shawn pressed the center of his brows. "What else am I going to do if I don't work?"He could only use work to numb himself and keep himself busy.Otherwise, once he became free, he would miss Gale.That kind of unforgettable pain and love carved into the bone marrow devoured Shawn every night.Looking back on the past, Shawn did not even know how he got here in the past four years.Every day felt so long, but he survived alone.Joe, aware of his sadness, avoided the topic. "Okay. I'm here to ask if you want to come to the celebration banquet tonight?""No.""Have you even given it some thought?"Shawn replied, "There is an international meeting tonight.""You can come over after the meeting. You greatly contribute to the company's ability to achieve such a good financial report, and you must be present," Joe said.Shawn wanted to say something, but Joe got up. "That's it. I'll wait for you. Go out more, get in touch with people more. It's good for your physical and mental h

"Hmph. I'd rather not have this gold medal to avoid death," Summer said."The director's position is that easy. Especially since Mr. Wood attaches so much importance to Lovito now."Only Summer could sit firmly and withstand Shawn's high-intensity work pressure.Just as they were talking, someone shouted loudly, "Mr. Wood is here!"Immediately, everyone turned to the door in unison.Gray suit, jeweled cufflinks, and spotless leather shoes, a man with extraordinary temperament stepped into the banquet scene.His silver hair was even more eye-catching.Shawn.He became more and more calm, unsmiling, and awe-inspiring, exuding vibes that people dared not approach casually.Joe walked over with a glass of wine in his hand. "Shawn, you're late. Punish yourself with three glasses."He took it and said, "I just finished the meeting."His face had frown lines, marks left by years of frowning."You are the protagonist, and everyone is waiting for you. One more toast to everyone. Tha

Shawn was expressionless. "Am I so scary?""Can't you tell from her expression?"Peach coughed. "Mr. Wood, let's talk about work..."She did not have the guts to tease and joke with Shawn.Every time after chatting about work, she wished she could wipe the soles of her feet with oil and quickly disappear from Shawn's eyes!Peach could not say why, but it might be from the fear and awe that came from his bones.Shawn's aura was too strong.She often thought that a gentle and kind person like Gale was completely incompatible with a cold man like Mr. Wood."Speak." Shawn shook the wine glass in his hand.Peach was still very capable when it came to her work. "I checked the relevant information about this brand two days ago, Florei. They mainly focus on the lower income people, and the most expensive ones are not more than five hundred dollars. Naturally, the materials used are not authentic, and silver and moissanite are used as raw materials.""But because Flore's design is nov
