Skeletons Of The Marital Closet

Chapter 848
“Galey, there aren’t many people in the world who truly know themselves. So, there are many things that do not need to be said.”
Shawn was surrounded by people who were greedy for his power and wealth. All of them were only close to him for the benefits!
It caused Shawn to become cold and emotionless out of necessity. He could not show any emotion!
“That’s right. If you don’t say anything, then others need to guess and try to figure out what you’re thinking. With your position, there are many people who are willing to do their best to figure out your intentions. Yet, just now, you put down your pride in front of me to explain things to me in detail. In your eyes, I’m that special person.”
“Galey, you’ve always been the most special person to me.”
After a pause, Shawn added, “You’re the most special, not one of them, but the only one.”
He explained a lot to her.
She did not listen before.
Even if she did, she did not believe it.
Shawn had thought that Winnie would have succeeded in causing a rift between Shawn and Gale.

It was because everything was just too much of a coincidence!
It looked like he was definitely responsible!
Yet, Gale had chosen to trust him. It surprised him a great deal.
It seemed like Gale had matured a lot in the four years.
Shawn was glad but felt a sense of pity at the same time.
She should have lived a life without worry. There should not have been any need for her to mature!
Those who were too mature were often like that because they had experienced too much hardship!
Gale looked down. “The most special one, but so what?”
They could not properly love each other like normal people.
“Galey, if you had trusted me like that four years ago too, wouldn’t a lot of things have been avoided?”
Gale shot back at Shawn. “What if you never pushed my family to such a desperate situation in the beginning? What if you choose to trust that my father did not kill yours?”
Shawn could not answer that.
That was true. They distrusted each other, and they tortured each other. That was how things ended up like this. They were still unable to even properly embrace each other!
Gale said, “There are no ifs in this situation, Shawn. We were never meant to be.”
He fell silent. He adjusted his shirt and his tie, turning back into the president of the Wood Group.
Cold and noble.
“There’s another thing. I misunderstood you. I only found out last night. Dad found a recording from my mom’s phone.”
“A recording?”
“Yes, I heard it. You made an oath in front of her.”
Shawn’s lips curled up slightly. “Galey, I explained what happened when she passed away to you before.”
