Skeletons Of The Marital Closet

Chapter 814

As she disappeared from his sight, Shawn's smile disappeared. He became much more serious.

He was just about to enter the ward when he saw Aurum from the corner of his eyes.

Shawn seemed to recall something as he stopped and turned to walk to Aurum.

Aurum had a basket of fruits and a doll with him. "Mr. Wood, I came to see Nicole and brought some gifts. Aurum merely looked at him seriously and asked, "What relationship do you have with Winnie Nightingale?

Aurum was confused when he heard that. "What are you talking about?"

Winnie and himself?

They were completely unrelated people!

"A few days ago, Winnie crazily ran all over Sea City to spread that Galey was still alive and that Galey had faked her death. Everyone knows about it. You should know about it as well," Shawn said. "Yes, I've heard of it."

"Winnie escaped from my hands. At the time, I had my subordinates look for her across the whole city. However, the last time she appeared was near your residence. After that, she completely disappeared!" Aurum finally understood. "Do you think I hid her?"

"Was it not you?"

Aurum denied it, "Of course not! I have nothing to do with her!"

He even hated Winnie.

Winnie was just a wretch who tried to take advantage of Gale's face!

Shawn narrowed his eyes. "Then why did Winnie disappear near the Lefting residence, never to appear again? And why did she suddenly rush into Nicole's ward yesterday?"

Aurum had just understood things when he was thrown into confusion again.

He could not understand what Shawn was saying at all. He had a strange look on his face. "Mr. Wood, what exactly are you trying to say?"

Aurum thought about it and asked with some concern, "Winnie rushed into Nicole's room. Did she do anything to Nicole? Is Nicole fine right now?"

"Do you really not know anything?"

"What do I need to know?"

Shawn's expression sank. "Nicole is acting very confused. She's treating Winnie as Gale, and acting like Winnie is her mother. She doesn't know who Gale is at all anymore." Aurum was shocked. "That happened?!"

"Right now, Nicole's not letting anyone get close to her other than Winnie. She's even rejecting Gale and myself!"

"How did that happen?" Aurum's expression was incredibly serious. "Then, Gale must be so sad!"

A daughter that Gale had raised by herself was calling someone else mother, not letting Gale get close.

Just thinking about it, Aurum could feel Gale's hopelessness.

"The most important thing is for us to figure out what's wrong with Nicole right now. We need to figure out what Winnie has been doing while she was hidden, and who's been helping her!" Shawn said. The whole Sea City was practically Shawn's territory.

It would be incredibly easy for him to replace someone.

Yet, Winnie had somehow seemed to disappear from the face of the earth, leaving no traces.

There was no way Winnie would be able to do that herself. Someone very capable must be behind her!

Aurum looked at Shawn. "I swear on my life that I have nothing to do with Winnie. There's no way I would help her hurt Gale!"

"Yet, Winnie had clearly appeared near your home last!"

"I'll go look into it and give you an explanation. Also, if you need any help from me, just let me know!" Aurum said.

Shawn dispelled his earlier suspicions when he saw how Aurum was acting.

After all, Aurum had always been incredibly helpful to Gale. There was no way Aurum would hurt her.
