Twisted Marriage: Secret Loves (Gale and Shawn)
Skeletons Of The Marital Closet By Wen Tang Tang Chapter 266

Chapter 266

Only when she pushed the door to his room open did she understand. Lucas sat on the sofa. He no longer had his youthful and pleased expression on his face and looked incredibly old and tired.

Paula was pouring him some tea.

“You're back. Come in. Close the door and sit,” Lucas said. Gale did not say anything and looked at Shawn, who was behind her. “Grandpa, why are you here?” Shawn walked in and said, “You even chased everyone in the corridors away.”

“It's because this is a family matter. I don't want anyone unrelated to overhear our conversation.”

“What do you want?”

Lucas put down his tea and pointed at Gale. “I want you to get rid of her. Get a divorce immediately!”

Shawn started to frown.

Gale laughed. “Shawn, this time, I'm not the one asking for a divorce.” Lucas still had a certain amount of power within the

family. It would be challenging for Shawn to resist the pressure from his family to get a divorce.

Gale wanted to see how long Shawn could resist.

Furthermore, was he really going to offend the Wood family for her sake?

Gale felt like she was not nearly that important to Shawn.

Shawn was a man, a successful one at that. In the end, what they cared about the most was their jobs and their own profits.

Not a woman.

Paula mocked, “Ha, you can still laugh. Gale, you couldn't protect your child. You're nothing now!"

She was no longer afraid of Gale.

Gale was only important because of her child. Without her child, what was the use of Gale?

The position of the eldest great-grandson could still be taken if her son worked hard after coming back from overseas!

Gale was incredibly calm. “Are all of you certain that I was the one who couldn't protect the child?”

Only Shawn and her knew of the truth.

Lucas asked, “What do you mean by that? Is there something else behind the miscarriage?”

“There's nothing hidden. Grandpa, you don’t have to bother with my private affairs,” Shawn answered quickly.

From the start, Lucas never knew that the child was not his. There was no need for Lucas to know it then either.

“Shawn, Shawn, what am I supposed to tell you? Gale had a miscarriage. I was in so much pain that I lost my appetite and hadn't even been able to sleep well. Look at you. You look completely fine!” In truth, Paula found it strange too.

How cold and emotionless was Shawn? It was his own flesh and blood in the end.

Even if Gale was the daughter of the Wood family’s enemy, the child was still his own.

Shawn said, “I have my own plans. This year, I'll work hard with Gale to satisfy your wishes.”

“There's no need!” Lucas waved it off. “This woman can't stay in our family any longer!”

Lucas had been violently opposed to the wedding initially.

He only changed his mind because Gale ended up

pregnant.

Now that the child was gone, how could he still allow Gale to remain comfortably within the family?!

“Shawn, get a divorce. Do it now!” Lucas" attitude was

firm. “So many women are lining up to enter our family. All of the best women in Sea City are there for you to choose from freely! You don't have a child with her anymore. She doesn't have any more value to you!”

Humans were always that pragmatic.

Gale still remembered how warm and welcoming Lucas had been when she was pregnant, constantly sending her supplements.

Here Lucas was, saying all those things.

If her child really was Shawn, then how chilling would it be to see the change in the family’s attitude?

Gale nodded and said, “Sure. I'm willing to get a divorce. I don’t even need anything from you.”
