Chapter 292

"So, so... The child in your belly..." Shawn said in a hoarse voice.

Gale answered hopelessly, "It was yours! Shawn, it was your child. It was our child!"

He looked like he had been violently punched as he staggered. He could not maintain his balance as he knelt down on the ground with a thud, slamming his fists on the ground violently.

His child...

What did he do?!

"That night with you was the only time I've been touched. I've always been completely clean other than that! I wanted that child so much. I did everything I could to protect the child, to bring the child to this world ... Yet, Shawn, what did you do?! How did you hurt the two of us?!" Gale said.

"I jumped into the lake, and the child was fine. Susan tried to harm me, pushing me down the stairs, and the child was fine. Disaster after disaster, the child and I managed to survive all of them. Who would have expected that, in the end, the child would die because of you!"

Gale shouted in a heartbroken tone, "Shawn, you killed our child with your own hands!"

All her emotions that she had kept down for the whole day erupted!

Gale's sadness and pain had strained her immensely mentally. She could not bear the cruel truth.

At that moment, she wanted to reveal everything. She wanted Shawn to suffer with her!

Gale sat on the ground, her tears obscuring her sight.

She could not see Shawn's face clearly, and could only make out a hazy outline.

She clenched her teeth. "You must be hurting right now. You must be blaming yourself, right? Do you feel like killing yourself? Shawn, let me tell you, I feel every bit as hurt as you!"

"You're the one who caused all of this! You're the executioner!"

"All that love and adoration you gave to Susan should have been mine! In the end, she enjoyed everything that should have been mine!"

"Shawn, how much longer are you going to hurt me? How much deeper will these wounds be?!"

Everything Gale said felt like a knife being stabbed into Shawn's heart.

Pain.

Even breathing was painful!

Shawn could not accept the truth!

That child he called a bastard child at every turn, the child he tried everything he could to get rid of, that he thought was the wedge between Gale and himself.

That child had actually been his own flesh and blood!

"No, that's not possible, I refuse to..." Shawn clenched his teeth. "It's fake. Everything you said was false!"

Gale answered, "Yes! I wish it were false too! I wish that everything was false and all just my own speculation!"

The two of them looked at each other hopelessly.

Shawn slammed his fist on the ground before he slowly stood up.

He hung his head, and there was a trail of tears on his face that fell to the ground.

Men who did not cry were just men who had not been hurt before!

Shawn had never shed a tear in his life, but he could not hold them back this time.

He quickly opened his eyes, shouting, Housekeeper!"

11

"Yes, Mr. Wood." The housekeeper opened the door and quickly appeared.

"Bring Susan to me right now! Bring the dean and that old man too!"

"Yes."

Shawn clenched his teeth. "As quickly as possible!"

Gale laughed mockingly, "Ha! Do you insist on interrogating them before you can believe this cruel reality?"
