Skeletons Of The Marital Closet novel Chapter 315

Chapter 315

Right after that was said, there was silence.

Gale widened her eyes suddenly as she looked right at Shawn, who was on the ground.

Even though he was kneeling, his back was still straight. His knees were full of dirt.

The ground was full of gravel and mud. It should be quite painful.

Susan repeated, “Trade you for her? Shawn, you’re willing to die with me so Gale can live?”

“Yes.”

“You’re willing to die?”

Shawn answered, “I just need to ensure Gale is alive.”

Then, it would be fine if he died.

She could live in his place.

Tears filled Gale’s eyes.

She constantly shook her head. “Shawn, you don’t have to do that for me…”

“Galey, I wish you a long and healthy life,” he said.

A long and healthy life.

Even if he had to die.

Tears fell across the wound on her face. Gale was in even more pain as her blood mixed with the tears.

Yet, none of that could compare to the pain in her heart.

How could someone as conflicting as Shawn exist? She loved him and hated him at the same time.

Shawn asked, “Is that okay, Susan? If you let Gale go, I’ll be your hostage instead.”

Saying that, he got up to walk toward Susan.

Susan said, “Hold it! You’re a big man. How could I subdue you? The moment you get close to me, you’ll pin me down on the ground!”
