Chapter 18

Gale was too lazy to continue explaining to him and turned her headaway. He had such a handsome face but such an unforgiving mouth!“Follow,” Shawn said deeply. She reluctantly walked to the door of themaster bedroom. Gale was about to open the quilt when her waisttightened, and he pushed her against the wall. He said hoarsely, “Ihave given you twenty thousand dollars. You need to fulfill yourobligations as my wife.” “You... are you serious?” “What, you took themoney and didn’t want to do anything? Huh?" Gale scratched her palmnervously and said, “Shawn, you won't touch me.” “Really? Then, tryme.” Shawn's hand began to move. “Shawn...1...I'm the daughter ofyour enemy. Can you really do it?" As soon as these words were said,the atmosphere instantly became solemn. Gale could only provoke himin exchange for her own safety! “Yes, thank you for your reminder.”Shawn clasped the back of her head and sneered through his teeth,“But don’t think about it!" “I'll pay you back later!” “If you please me, youdon't have to pay it back.” Gale's eyes widened. He... Shawn said,“You don't get to choose. From the day you fell into my hands, youcompletely lost the right to choose, understood?” Of course, Galeunderstood what he meant by “please him’. “Huh?” Shawn raised hiseyebrows in dissatisfaction. “Why haven't you started yet?” Gale bit herlower lip. “You can go to Susan.” “Why should 1?" Shawn leaned overand touched the tip of her nose. “Of course, it's kept for the weddingnight... and you deserve to be defiled!” The favored Susan could keepher dignity, but she had no such right! Shawn always kept his word, andthus she was destined to be unable to escape. With a spirit ofdetermination, Gale closed her eyes and prepared to fight. Suddenly,her body was violently thrown out... Shawn said furiously, “You are soeasy, Gale!" Comment by Eunice Low: Is she cheap for not wanting i?Comment by Rachel Lee: he’s trying to humiliate / degrade her bysaying, how can you not want it? you're so cheap Her back slammedheavily on the corner of the bed. It hurt a lot, but she just felt relieved.Nice! Shawn finally got bored of her! Seeing her eyelashes flutteringslightly and her cheeks flushed, Shawn's desire grew. He could not goon like this. If he messed with her again, he felt that sooner or later, hewould be falling into the trap he had set! After all, he was a normal man!Shawn called William while sitting in the sports car, “Do the medicinesyou sent me have any side effects?” “There is indeed a little...”“Speak!” William replied, “Mr. Wood, the medicine will increase yoursexual appetite.” Shawn's face darkened, and he said, “Why didn’t youtell me earlier?” “This is a very normal phenomenon. Mr. Wood, you areyoung, and you are in your prime.” William said, “I suggest you takesome time to go to the hospital for an examination. Your sperm countmust have improved a lot by now.” Shawn hung up the phone directlyand stepped on the accelerator abruptly. The sports car made a loudrumbling sound and drove out of Temperley Hall. In the VIP booth atthe bar, Shawn drank sullenly one cup after another. Joe yawned andsaid, “You're already a family man. How can you still come out to drinkso late? Aren't you afraid that your wife will get angry?” “Shut up.” “Youwill still end up in bed together, even after a fight.” Comment by EuniceLow: I dont understand this question Comment by Rachel Lee: its achinese idiom, i dont really have the english equivalent of it, but itssupposed to be something like theres no point arguing since you are acouple, you both sleep in the same bed. Shawn said coldly, “I have norelationship with her.” Joe spread his hands and said, “You can't lie. Ican see it in your eyes. Bro, in this world, love can't be feigned.” Love?Does he love Gale? Absurd! “I think you're going crazy.” Shawn put theglass down heavily. “The divorce agreement has been signed. I'll gothrough the formalities as soon as the time is up.” Joe kindly reminded,“It's not too late for you to tear it up now.” “Would you believe me if Isaid I tore it?" Joe shrugged and said, “Go ahead and get drunk. I'mgoing to dance.” After he finished speaking, he merged into the dancefloor and danced close to the hot beauties. Shawn tugged at his tie inannoyance. He would rather stay here than go to Susan. He alwaysfelt...she was different from the woman that night. The next day, Galereceived a call from the hospital. The other party said, “I'm from SeaCity Hospital. The results of your last examination are out. Come andget them.” “Okay.” After reporting her name at the nurse's station, Galereceived the test results. Gale opened it and was completelydumbfounded after reading the report! She read it over and over again,but she still could not believe her eyes... “Four weeks pregnant.” Shewas actually pregnant! She only had one night with the strange manthat night, so this child belongs to that man! She does not even knowwho the child's father is! What should she do now? Gale panicked. IfShawn knew about it... She could not imagine how angry he would be!Then, should she abort the child? Abortion was physically damagingand required money and bed rest. Gale could afford neither. What'smore, she could not bear to do it. This is life—her very own child.Leave? She could not protect herself. How could she raise a child?“Baby, it's too late for you...” Gale frowned with worry, and she gentlycovered her lower abdomen. “What should Mommy do?” Gale was in adaze. Her mind was a mess, and she bumped into several people whilewalking. “I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." she apologized numbly and lowered herhead. Susan saw her from a distance. “Hey, isn’t that Gale?” Susan feltsomething was wrong and walked to the nurse's station. “That womannamed Gale Warm, is she sick?” “Sorry, the patient's privacy cannot bedisclosed,” the nurse replied. Susan smiled. “I'm concerned about her,so please help.” She secretly stuffed a few bills to the nurse. The nursewhispered, “Pregnant, four weeks.” Susan's face changeddramatically... Gale was pregnant, and it was Shawn's child! As soonas Gale walked out of the hospital, she received a call from Shawn,“Where did you go? Get back!” “Okay.” Shawn just got home afterdrinking. When he got home, he lost his temper. He was even moreupset when he thought that he had gotten drunk because of Gale.What about touching her? What if he did not touch her? He alwaysdoes things based on his mood! Gale walked into the living room andsmelled a strong smell of alcohol. “So, you went drinking last night?"Shawn gestured with his finger. “Come here.” She walked overobediently. As soon as she arrived in front of him, she was suddenlypulled into his arms. “Yes, I'm drunk, and I haven't woken up yet!"“Then I'll make you something to sober up.” However, Shawn held herunder him. “Why should I get drunk for you? To suppress a man'snature for you? Do you think you are worthy? Gale, I want you now,and I'll save you a lot of sleepless nights!” His strength wasastonishingly large, and Gale resisted vigorously. She was pregnantwith a child, and her baby’s condition was not stable yet, so Shawncould not touch her! “Shawn, why are you drunk...” “Play nice, and youwon't suffer much!” While struggling, the pregnancy test results in herbag fell out! Gale's pupils dilated... Oops! She forgot to tear it up!
