Chapter 353
During the few months Gale stayed in Shawn’s place, it became more and more obvious that Paula’s
mother and son were the most vicious people in his life.
They were also the most motivated…the ones who wanted Alex Wood to die!
“I know who it is. Be it Paula or her son. I will solve it
sooner or later. They have no chance to hurt you,” Shawn replied.
Gale looked at him. “You have always acted vigorously and without mercy, but you let Paula and her
son go
repeatedly and didn’t settle accounts with them. Is it out of respect to Alex?”
“No.”
“Then why?”
Shawn looked unwilling to mention more.
Gale sweated, and her palms were very moist.
Talking about these issues in front of him was risky, and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtif she was not careful, she would bring up Alex.
Alex’s death had always been taboo for Shawn.
After a while, Shawn calmed down and said, “It’s because my father specifically told me to treat them
kindly before he died.”
That was why!
What did Alex Wood say?
Gale was curious, but…she did not ask.
If Shawn wanted to speak, he would. If he did not want to say it, he would not mention a word even if
she pushed him.
“These are all past events. Gale, do you want to hear it?” Shawn rested his chin on her shoulder and
buried it in her neck.
Gale pretended to be indifferent. “… Up to you.”
“Y… You clearly want to hear it, but you’re playing hard to get.”
Shawn’s breath brushed against her neck, causing her to itch, and she subconsciously wanted to
escape.
He tightened his grip on her.
“I’ve never told anyone about this, not even my
grandfather. Not only was my father telling me this before he died, but even the day before the car
accident, my father talked to me,” Shawn said in a low voice.
“Talk?”
“Yes. He wants me to transfer half of the shares in my hand to Paula and her son,” Shawn said.
Gale was a little surprised. “Half? So much.”
“Yes, but I didn’t agree, but my father’s attitude was very firm, and we fought about it.”
Gale felt as if she could not breathe, and she realized that she was getting closer to the truth bit by bit.
In the struggle of wealthy families, they are fighting for power and money!
She asked cautiously, “Then… Do they know about this?”
“Only my father and I know. He usually has no hope for
Paula’s son, who is not that sharp, and often reprimands him.”
“Grandpa always protects him, saying that everyone has their own fate, and I was enough for the Wood
family. As long as Paula’s son is safe and sound and doesn’t go out to cause trouble, that’s enough.”

After hearing this, Gale suddenly felt sorry for Shawn.
However, she tried her best to suppress this emotion.
It was because she once saw a saying that the highest state of loving someone is to feel distressed.
She felt sorry for Shawn. This is not a good sign!
Gale bit her lips and said, “So… Paula’s mother and son like Lucas more and think that Lucas is the
one who supports them and stands on their side.”
“Yes. Paula quarreled with Alex every now and then, and her son ran away when he saw his father,”
Shawn replied deeply.
“Then, did you meet anyone before your father’s car accident?”
“No, he has been at home. Paula went back to her mother’s house for leisure.”
After listening to Shawn’s narration, Gale realized more and more that something was wrong.
Paula returned to her mother’s home the day before Alex Wood died.
Coincidentally, the day before the car accident, Alex asked Shawn to give up half of the shares!
More and more thoughts entangled in her mind. Incomparably complicated.
The more she thought about it, the more Gale’s head hurt.
