Skeletons Of The Marital Closet

feelings for her? Shawn pursed her lips coldly and said, “Gale, you look down on yourself too much!” “I’m afraid you will fall in love with me.” Gale lowered her head and twisted her fingers. “It’s inevitable that two people have been together for a long time will…” Shawn raised his chin deeply and said, “Heh. Do you think I’ll touch you? Keep dreaming!” Even if all the women in the world were dead, even if she were naked and standing in front of him, he would not take a second look! Gale’s head lowered. It seemed that she was too ashamed, but in fact… a slyness flashed in her eyes. Gale said that on purpose to make Shawn not want to touch a single strand of her hair in the future! So she would be safe. When confronting Shawn head-on, she had no choice but to outsmart him. Shawn said in a low and powerful voice, “Grandpa, there is no need for you to worry about it. Just enjoy your retirement. I will bring the Wood family to its peak.” “Are you saying you will not divorce her?” “Divorce is all up to me!” “You vixen!” Seeing Shawn’s resolute attitude, Grandfather Wood’s anger moved toward Gale. “You killed my son, and now my grandson is seduced by you… Our Wood family must owe you in the past life!” Paula deliberately fanned the flames, “Grandpa, if you have something to say, just say it, don’t use violence…” “I have to kill this fox of a woman!” Grandfather Wood held his cane and waved it toward Gale.

In the end, he simply smacked Shawn’s back with a cane. “All you do is go for beautiful girls! How useless!” Shawn was hit… Gale had not seen this coming. Her face turned pale, as if she had lost. She’s finished! Shawn gave her a cold glance. “Thanks a lot, Gale!” “I…” The phone rang suddenly. Shawn looked deeply at the caller ID and answered, “What’s the matter?” “Mr. Wood, I found the woman who broke into your room that night!” “Where?” “Sea City Mental Hospital!” How could it be… That’s where Gale stayed for the last two years? Shawn held the phone and looked sideways at Gale. His eyes were too sharp and fierce, and Gale tilted his head to avoid his burning gaze. Shawn turned around and walked out, not forgetting to grab Gale’s wrist. “Let’s go!” There was a cracking sound
