Semua Bab Skeletons Of The Marital Closet: Bab 1721 - Bab 1730

Gale immediately understood. "Ah, two of us are just as well too," Gale immediately said to smooth things over. "I realize I've never celebrated with you. Having a quiet birthday is also a special memory!" "Yeah, this will be the most unforgettable birthday for me." Gale felt his words were laden with deeper meaning. However, she brushed off her own thoughts, thinking she was being too sensitive."Come on, make a wish, blow out the candles." Gale looked at the waiter and said, "Excuse me, can you bring out the cake for me?" "Of course, madam." The waiter was about to step forward when Aurum said, "No need, I'll handle it. You can go outside." "Yes, sir. I'll be right outside. Just ring if you need anything." Gale watched as the waiter walked out. She felt the waiter could have stayed. Otherwise, she felt being alone with Aurum was a little uncomfortable. She did not come here to retaliate against Shawn and go on a date with Aurum. She really came to celebrate Aurum's birth

Perhaps that was the meaning of marriage. Aurum's smile grew brighter, but the chill in his heart became heavier."As long as you're happy. I'll be content just watching you from afar," he said."You should pay more attention to the people around you. If you meet someone suitable..." "Let's talk about it later. I am not in the mood for it right now." Aurum lowered his head.Gale softly murmured, "Okay." She understood that Natalie had just died, and her picking Shawn was quite a blow to Aurum. He was a responsible person, and although he did not love Natalie, there was still some affection after so many years together. However, Aurum ended up alone. He needed some time to slowly come out of it. Such things could not be rushed. "A little drink?" Aurum looked at the wine on the table. "It's vintage. I had it flown in from France." Before Gale could answer, he had already picked it up. The dark red liquid sloshed around in the transparent glass. It was fine wine. Even som

Perhaps he was in a hurry; his rushed movements as he reached for the door caused his body to lean too far toward her.Gale instinctively shifted aside. She did not want to be so physically close to Aurum.In her attempt to move, her footing faltered. "Oops!" Gale exclaimed as her body began to topple to the ground."Watch out, Gale!"Seeing this, Aurum quickly reached out to catch her.Yet Gale did not want him to assist her.She would rather fall.The set of photos of Shawn and Ivy happened because Ivy accidentally slipped, and Shawn reached out to help, which led to those intimate shots.Having learned from that, Gale could not possibly allow history to repeat itself.So, Gale wanted to evade Aurum's touch.Just then, the door to the private room was suddenly pushed open from the outside. It nearly knocked Gale over. However, Gale took the opportunity to grab the door handle to steady herself. Thankfully, everything was fine. It was just a false alarm.Observing this, A

When Gale sang the birthday song, her voice was soft and sweet. As he made his wishes, he listened to her singing, feeling content. Tonight, it was truly just her celebrating him. Aurum did not achieve anything else."It's okay, it's okay." Aurum closed his eyes, taking deep breaths. "There are still plenty of opportunities. It's just this one time. There's always next time and the time after that!"He could not believe that every time, Gale would steadfastly stand by Shawn's side, always believing in him. Even if she believed in Shawn again, this trust must have a breaking point.The street was busy. Cars and pedestrians intertwined. Gale leaned against Shawn's embrace. Shawn did not speak either, carrying her toward the car."Are you angry...?" Gale asked softly, "Shawn, why are you angry?"Although she was feeling very dizzy and in pain, her whole body was hot. She still cared about Shawn's mood."What do you think? Gale, you're deliberately upsetting me," Shawn retorted."I'

At this point, Shawn felt immensely remorseful and regretful. Why did he not insist on taking her to the hospital? If he had, none of this would have happened! A momentary lapse in judgment resulted in such serious consequences.The doctor took readings on Gale's vital stats, all of which seemed normal. Yet, Gale had already passed out. To be precise, she had actually fallen asleep. She was too tired, her stomach hurting, her head spinning, feeling nauseous, her body radiating heat like there was a fire inside her. If her body were not so weak, she would have wanted to take a cold shower and then go for a run to burn off this inexplicable heat. The moment Gale touched the pillow, even though it was in the ambulance, she closed her eyes and fell asleep directly.Shawn stayed by her side the whole time, never leaving, holding her hand tightly. It was unclear how much time passed, but Gale slowly woke up. As she opened her eyes, she saw a group of doctors and nurses in white coats s
