    Chapter 5


    Realizing that she had said something wrong, Pa hurriedly covered her mouth. “It’s nothing.


    Since you are part of the Wood family, you should know the rules. Look at how indecent you are!”


    Gale raised her hand to cover her body. “I’ll change right now.” “It’s really embarrassing. I don’t


    know what Shawn likes about you. Any girl in Sea City is better than you…” Fiona said


    contemptuously. Suddenly, a gray suit was draped over Gale’s shoulders. It felt warm and smelled


    familiar. “No matter what she does, it’s not your ce to lecture her.” Shawn took her into his arms,


    “Aunt Fiona, you are too lenient.” Gale wanted to avoid it subconsciously, worried that she would get


    wet and dirty him. Shawn insisted on hugging her firmly, which made her even more frightened.


    Shawn clearly was not thinking straight… It was her who wanted her to go through the rain. Does


    he have a fever causing his confusion? When Pa saw him, she quickly put on a smile. “Shawn,


    I’m just setting some rules for my daughter-inw.” “My rules are the rules. She doesn’t need to


    follow yours!” Pa’s smile froze on her face. Gale was even stiffer. Shawn was actually defending


    her. Shawn hugged her deeply and thoughtfully and walked to the vi. “Housekeeper, see off the


    guests.” “Yes.” Gale was not used to it and dared not move. “Who was that just now?” “It’s just my


    stepmother.” “Oh…” Gale replied a whileter, “You must have offended her by speaking up for me


    just now.” Shawn replied lightly, “What does that matter?” “She is not qualified to bully you.” Shawn


    pursed his lips lightly and said, “In the whole world, only I can bully you.” Gale’s heart trembled


    when he heard it. Even humiliating her was his right. No one else could. “You apologized to Pa


    just now, right?” Gale lowered her head and answered, “Yes.” “p yourself.” She stared nkly at


    him, not knowing where she had gone wrong. Is it because she apologized to Pa? Shawn did not


    exin and raised his brows indifferently. Gale gritted her teeth and pped herself hard. It had to


    be loud, forceful, and have a red mark on the cheek to satisfy Shawn. Otherwise, there will be a


    second p, a third… until he is satisfied. “That’s right.” Shawn pointed at the instion box on the


    coffee table and said, “Go, open it.” Galeplied. As soon as she opened the lid, she smelled a


    fragrant fragrance, which enticed her appetite. “This is…” “The soup from Pa.” Gale remembered


    that her mother used to make soup for her often, but in the future… she will never taste her


    mother’s cooking again. The probability that a vegetative person waking up was too low. Gale


    suddenly wanted to cry, but she dared not, so she could only blink her eyes quickly to force the


    tears back. Shawn held Gale tightly and raised her chin. “Gale, drink.” Ah? Is she forced to drink?


    Gale said, “It’s not right…This is what Pa prepared for you.” “Drink as much as you want.” Shawn


    said impatiently, “From today onwards, you will drink all the soup she brings.” He even picked up the


    spoon himself, scooped up the soup, and fed it to her. “I’ll drink by myself…” “Drink.” No way, Gale


    could only open her mouth. An inexplicable smile shed in Shawn’s eyes. This soup was made for


    men. It can affect fertility, causing difficulty in impregnating women… That would be perfect for Gale


    to drink. She is a woman, so this soup has no effect on her.   Even if there is an impact, so what?


    Why would he care about her life and death.   Gale had no idea, and it happened that she was


    hungry too. “Signed it.” While sipping, Shawn threw an agreement at her. She looked intently at the


    divorce agreement. She just got married and now getting divorced. What exactly is Shawn


    nning? “Three monthster, we will divorce, and you will go out of the house. In the next three


    months, you must be a good Mrs. Wood.” Shawn had absolute confidence that he would be able to


    find the woman who slept with him that night within three months. By that time, Gale’s existence


    would be meaningless. He will marry that woman. That night, all her beauty… made him


    unconsciously start to miss her. “Okay, divorce.” Gale agreed, “However, I have conditions.” Shawn


    sneered deeply and said, “What qualifications do you have to negotiate with me? Want me to let


    your mother go?” “No.” She wanted him to… investigate the cause of his father’s death. That was


    Shawn’s sore spot, which cannot be touched or mentioned. Anyone who dares to open it will be


    courting death! Of course, Gale knew his temper, but she had no other way. She said cautiously,


    “Have you ever thought that maybe your father’s death… is caused by someone else?” As she


    expected, Shawn’splexion quickly sank like a dark cloud. He kicked over the coffee table, and


    the soup spilled on the ground. “Gale, how dare you mention this!? You don’t want to live


    anymore?!” Was she scared? Certainly. Gale still bit the bullet and carried on, “My father is an


    experienced doctor. At the juncture of life and death, he can’t be careless enough to use the wrong


    medicine… ah!” Before she could finish her sentence, Shawn grabbed her neck. “Say one more


    word!” The air in her lungs was slowly thinning, and Gale was about to faint, looking up at his


    handsome face. Shawn’s deep forehead bulged with blue veins, and the strength in his hand


    became stronger and stronger. “I will never stop having my revenge on your father. Gale, are you


    delusional to absolve your father? Dreaming! I will make your Warm family live a life of pain and


    sorrow!” “I just believe my dad…” “Shut up!” Shawn interrupted her fiercely, “The evidence is


    conclusive. Your father also pleaded guilty and went to jail. What else is there to say!” “He was


    forced to confess… ” A dark shadow appeared in front of Gale’s eyes, suffocating her. She thought


    it would be good if she just died like this. She was relieved. Living was too tiring. However… Shawn


    let go. He said like a demon, “You won’t die so easily. I want to keep you tortured day after day.”


    Gale fell to the ground, tears falling unconsciously. It seems that she can only rely on herself to find


    out the truth about Alex Wood’s death. Gale had no time to wallow in her sadness. She wiped away


    her tears, got up, lowered her head, and followed Shawn to the bedroom. “I’ll just sleep on the


    floor.” She was very self-aware. Shawn ignored her and stood by the window smoking a cigarette.


    Galey down on the floor, curled up into a ball, and closed her eyes. She was not bitter because


    sleeping here was a thousand times better than in a messy mental hospital. After finishing his


    cigarette, Shawn turned her head and found that Gale was already asleep. The bright moonlight fell


    on her cheeks, lining her snow-white skin, her long eyshes cast shadows, and her lips were


    bright red and tender… He was tempted to kiss her. Shawn quickly looked away, entered the


    bathroom, and took a long cold shower before calming down. He actually had feelings for Gale!


    Damn it! Shawn shook his shaggy head, strode back to the bedroom, and grabbed Gale from the


    ground.Copyright N?v/el/Dra/ma.Org.
