However, he was afraid of what would come next. He might witness the most painful scene of his life! The door to Paul and Ivy's room was open, but as Shawn passed by, he did not even cast a glance their way. He dared not even dare to see Ivy's state, let alone Gale's!Shawn stopped at the door of the next room. "Mr. Wood, we have not searched this room, but there's someone inside," the bodyguard said."Get out.""But, sir...""Get out!"The team took a few steps back, distancing themselves from Shawn. Each person ensured that they would not be able to see what was in the room.Shawn gripped the doorknob. It was old, and the paint was peeling. Even the locks in the storerooms of Temperley Hall were not this dilapidated.Shawn pushed the door open but held onto the doorknob tightly. The room was very small. The door revealed the room in its entirety. A man and a woman lay in bed. The man lay on his back, sound asleep with his eyes closed, while the woman lay on her side in his emb

"Yes, tonight, Gale and I..." Aurum deliberately stopped here. Shawn's temples throbbed with veins bulging, his eyes almost bursting with fury. Aurum was intentionally adding salt to his wound."I deserve to die, I really do. Shawn, Gale is clearly your wife, the mother of Joshua and Nicole. Yet tonight, she slept with me. Although I don't know how this happened, it was what had happened," Aurum said."I understand your anger. I'm sorry for what I did to you and to Gale, but I... didn't intend for it to happen.""Shut up!" Shawn gritted his teeth."You can kill me, go ahead. Just press down your fingers on the pistol. You're just a press away from removing all your rage and hatred," Aurum taunted. "Do it while Gale is still asleep and oblivious. When she wakes up, whatever happened, whatever she went through, she will hear the story only from you.""Shawn, by then, you can weave whatever story you want! You can lie to her about what happened tonight, including my death."Auru

From the moment he walked into this room, he hoped she would not wake up because all of this was too terrifying and cruel for her to take in."Ivy? Where's Ivy? And Paul?" Gale asked."How could I be in the same room as Aurum? "Shawn, why are you here?"With each question, she felt a growing chill in her heart. She guessed what had happened, but she dared not think about it. Gale lowered her head and looked at her own body. Her clothes were still on her body.Shawn tried to hide it. However, he was also in agony and furious. He understood that Gale could not accept the cruel reality. She was so strong and proud. How could she bear what happened between her and Aurum?His throat rolled, and Shawn said, "There was a slight mishap, but...""A slight mishap?" Gale suddenly laughed bleakly. "No, I don't believe you. You're lying to me."She raised her hand, pointing to the bow on her skirt's belt."When I put on this skirt, the bow was on the left side. But now, this bow is on the

Gale was relieved that she woke up in time. Otherwise, Aurum would be dead. Shawn would be a murderer. This was not what she wanted to see. Slowly, Gale sat up from Shawn's embrace. She looked at Aurum, not saying a word, just silently watching him with tears falling incessantly.Aurum met her gaze for only two seconds before averting his eyes, unable to bear the despair and sadness in Gale's eyes. He could not bring himself to look. Her eyes were too full of hopelessness and melancholy. He could not bear it. He was deceiving her, plotting against her, resorting to any means necessary. He was no longer the righteous Aurum he once was. Gale's gaze was so innocent and pure that he did not deserve to look into them. He had ruined her. Even though he had never actually slept with her, her reputation was tarnished. Her pure body, both Shawn and she herself believed, was no longer pure. This was what Aurum wanted to see.Gale stood up, swaying slightly. She walked toward Aurum. Shawn r

Shawn's heart was breaking!"Aurum, you bastard, you deserve to die for hurting her!" he roared.Aurum understood what he meant. This scheme had wounded Gale deeply. However, when Gale heard it, she interpreted it differently..."How can I blame Aurum… He's a victim just like me," Gale sobbed. In her mind, they passed out together and were both victims. Deep down, Gale still believed in Aurum. Shawn's eyes were filled with rage. What a performance by Aurum.Aurum replied, "I deserve to die, Gale. Shawn's right. I did such a despicable thing to you, destroying your relationship and marriage with Shawn. I... I can only atone for it with my life!" The more Aurum acted like this, the less Gale blamed him. What was the use of accusing him? Aurum was also a victim. However, this incident hurt her the most. Gale only hated herself for not being more vigilant, and she hated the person behind the scenes even more. Where did it all go wrong? How did she get drugged? How did they succeed? E
