Skeletons Of The Marital Closet

Chapter 83

Shawn’s arms wrapped tightly around her waist.

“Gale, can you be more obedient? Don‘t make me angry. Listen to me,” he said in a low voice.

She smiled bitterly and said, “My life is in your hands, you can crush it all. What else do you want?”

“I want you to take the initiative, and I want you to stay willingly. Instead of... me using hatred and your parents to tie you to me.”

Gale was stunned.

What Shawn said… She does not seem to understand.

On second thought, he was drunk. He must be talking nonsense.

Gale felt that she was also a little silly and laughed at herself.

“What are you laughing at?” Shawn was very dissatisfied and asked, “I’m talking to you. Are you deaf?” She murmured, “Even when he’s drunk, he‘s still so fierce…”

“I‘m not drunk!”

“Yes, yes, you are not drunk. The more drunk people are,

the more they like to say that they are not drunk.”

Gale responded perfunctorily, like coaxing a child.

She said, “Shawn, let me go first. I‘ll get a hot towel to wipe your face.”

He immediately said with a straight face, “Where are you going? No!”

He tightened his arms even harder.

Gale felt that her waist hurt because of him.

“Never want to leave me, ever. If you dare to leave, I will definitely make you pay a price you can‘t bear...” Shawn said over and over again.

Gale thought it was funny. “My family is here. Where can

I go?”

Shawn paused for a few seconds , probably thinking her words made sense.

After a while, he suddenly sighed.

“Gale, what do you want?”

“What?”

“What do you want, and how can I make you stay? You say it, and I‘ll give it.” Shawn looked into the depths of her eyes. “As long as you want, as long as I have it.”

He was so serious.

Like a promise , like the most sincere promise between lovers. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

He and she, although they are husband and wife on the surface, are actually enemies.

Gale also lost her mind in Shawn‘s sincere eyes.

The two looked at each other quietly as if there were only each other left on earth.

Knock knock knock...

Gale suddenly came back to her senses and immediately got up to open the door.

“Madam, hangover soup.” The housekeeper handed the tray.

When she took it and brought it to the bedside , Shawn had already closed his eyes and fallen asleep.

Gale stood motionless.

Shawn‘s words just now seemed like a dream, illusory.

However, it really came out of his mouth.

Gale shook her head with a wry smile. She was thinking about what to expect. Shawn was so drunk that he was unconscious.

She should not take those words for real.

She gently put the hangover soup on the bedside table and lay down again. When Shawn woke up, it was noon the next day.

With a splitting headache , he kept rubbing his temples. His mind went blank.

He could not remember what had happened yesterday. His last memory was of the bar, chatting and drinking with Joe.

Shawn went downstairs and looked around, but Gale was nowhere to be seen.

.

“Mr. Wood, your wife has gone to work.” The housekeeper said immediately, “But before she left, she specially made a hangover soup for you.”

With a neutral expression on his face, he sat at the dining table.

The housekeeper waited for him to eat breakfast and then said, “Mrs. Wood is very hardy. You were very drunk last night. She took care of you by herself. She didn‘t sleep well at night. This morning, her face was haggard.”
