Gale nodded repeatedly, "Yes!"She sensed gossip!Shawn and Joe had been friends for many years, knowing each other inside out. There must be something fishy going on."There's someone Joe doesn't want to meet there. If he goes, that person will get wind of it. They will force a meeting," Shawn replied."Is that person a man or a woman?"Shawn remained silent, just straightening his cuffs and heading out.Gale's appetite for gossip was left hanging, and she could not let him leave! She hurriedly caught up and asked, "Answer me! Is it a man or a woman?""Hey, Shawn, if you don't say anything, it must be a woman!""Because no man would make Joe so terrified that he'd rather choose Samutus!""Could it be Joe's ex?""Or maybe his first love? Or someone he loved deeply but couldn't be with?"Gale trailed along like a little tail, chattering non-stop beside Shawn.Shawn remained silent throughout."Talk, you're making me anxious. Did I guess correctly? Summer can't be a backup o

He slowly opened his eyes just a little and glanced at Gale. "Big... big beauty," he said, then closed his eyes, drifting back to sleep. He felt so exhausted, and every part of his body ached. He had no strength left."I'm here. You go ahead and sleep. There's nothing to worry about now. I'm safe, and so are you," Gale replied. Joshua did not respond further, peacefully drifting into sleep. He slept so calmly and obediently. Gale leaned down and placed a kiss on his forehead.The doctor had arranged for Joshua to be in a premium ward instead of a critical condition monitoring ward. Meanwhile, news about Pearton came through."Mr. Wood." The captain stood at the door of the ward, knocking lightly."Speak.""Pearton is no longer in critical condition. However, his injuries are still severe. Whether he can survive remains to be seen. The doctor says he might need to stay in the intensive care unit for at least half a month," the captain reported.After a few seconds of contemp

She had wanted to tell him about Joshua's true identity back then. He was the one who did not believe her. It turned out he had misunderstood her. It turned out Gale had no intention of keeping it a secret forever. At this moment, all the discomfort in Shawn's heart disappeared. He was no longer holding a grudge; he had come to terms with it. However, he would not let Gale know. He still wanted to put on a show of being upset; he wanted to see her trying to appease him! After being kept in the dark for so long, Shawn felt he deserved to be compensated by Gale."I like Joshua, a lot. I want him to live with us..."Shawn responded, "He'll be able to live with us very soon."Nicole was initially stunned, but then her eyes lit up. "Really?""Yes, I'll bring him back."Nicole was about to cheer but suddenly remembered something and froze. Seeing her cautiously thoughtful expression, Shawn tapped her forehead with his finger. Nicole quickly covered it. "Ouch!" It was the first tim

He would sleep alone that night. A tinge of melancholy lingered in his heart. He had long grown accustomed to her presence by his side. Shawn took out his phone and saw a message from Gale.[Joshua's condition is currently very stable, with no major issues. Rest at home and take care of Nicole. Don't tell her about Joshua's injury. She'll worry.]He did not reply, afraid of disturbing her. He just stared at the message over and over, calm and reassuring. At this moment, Shawn suddenly affirmed one thing: he and Gale would definitely have a future. She would choose him, not Aurum! They had a lifetime ahead. How could Gale love Aurum? Clearly, Aurum had feelings for her, but she was indifferent to them! Gazing into the boundless night, Shawn tightened his grip on his phone. He had already obtained the thing he most desired.Soon, it was dawn. Sunlight streamed in from the window. Gale lay on the bedside, half-asleep. Originally, she slept on the sofa. However, Joshua kept groaning in

She could have been more stern and tried harder to stop him; maybe the exchange would not have happened. Joshua looked at Gale's distressed and sympathetic expression and smirked. "Big Beauty." "What's wrong?" she asked nervously. "Nothing, just calling you," he said. Then, Joshua asked the head nurse. "Nurse, is my mom beautiful?" The head nurse was stunned. Gale was also stunned. The head nurse nodded. "Beautiful... yes. Your mommy looks like a young girl, it doesn't look like she's had a child." "Right, that's what I think. Look, I was injured and unconscious all night. She stayed with me, but she is still so beautiful. There's a word to describe it, something about appearance and something..." Joshua said.The head nurse replied, "Radiant." "Yes! She's still radiant!" Joshua responded.Gale's cheeks blushed slightly, feeling embarrassed. "I put on makeup..." "See, I'm lying on the hospital bed, and she still has the mood to put on makeup. Oh, my, I really don't kn
