Skeletons Of The Marital Closet

Chapter 8

to make a mess of it today!” Jenny approached with a grin. The knife got closer and closer and finally stuck to Gale’s cheek. “As long as I exert force, your beauty will be gone…” Gale swallowed nervously, “You are really not afraid of Shawn!” “He won’t touch me with the Timothy family here.” With that said, Jenny was about to make her first cut. At this critical moment, a deep and dignified familiar male voice came from afar. “Stop!” That voice… Gale was overjoyed and shouted with all her strength, “Shawn, save me!” The sound of rubber burning around the ground rang out. Before the car stopped, Shawn had already jumped off. He walked fast, the hem of his suit was raised high, and his eyes were full of anger. “Timothy family? What do you think they are?” Shawn raised his thin lips and threatened, “Tomorrow, I can make the entire Timothy family disappear from Sea City!” “Shawn… ah!” Shawn kicked Jenny away without even looking at her. He went straight to Gale and picked her up. “Are you hurt?” She shook her head. “No, almost, but I was not.” Shawn asked, “What are you running around for? You can’t find a spot to sit in the entire Wood Group?” “I…” She kept quiet, not wanting to tell him she was looking for a job and bumped into Paula and Jenny. “Shawn, why are you here?” Paula smiled and said, “I’m playing with my daughter-in-law.” Shawn raised his brows and replied, “Play?” “Yeah.” He picked up the knife from the ground and threw it at Paula’s feet. “Let’s play with your face next.” “What…” “Cut it!” “Shawn!” Jenny stomped her feet and said, “Why are you defending this woman!” “Because she’s my wife!” Shawn’s eyes were colder than a knife’s. “If I don’t protect her, who do you expect me to protect?

The reason why Shawn was so angry was that… the only person who could bully and humiliate her was him. No matter how much he hated her and wanted to torture her, he won’t let others do it. He had to do it himself. Shawn sounded like he really cared about her, but she knew it was not true. Just as she was deep in thought, Shawn picked her up in his arms. Gale exclaimed and hooked her arms around his neck subconsciously. Realizing that this gesture was too intimate, she quickly let go. Shawn said coldly with an indifferent expression, “You should be glad she wasn’t injured. Jenny, I’ll punish you on behalf of your family! Go back home and think about what you have done for a month! You are grounded!” “Paula!” He said to Paula, “Don’t even think about getting a cent of your living expenses this year!” For Paula, this was the most painful punishment. After she married Shawn’s father, she lived a luxurious life. Even if Shawn’s father died, she could receive an exorbitant living expense from the family
