Skeletons Of The Marital Closet novel Chapter 850

Chapter 850
“No matter how cruel the truth is, I want you to tell me. I don’t want to find out from someone else.”
Gale shut her eyes.
Slowly, she started to relax into his embrace.
Gale asked, “Are you sure you want to listen? You won’t pursue it, and you won’t get angry?”
“Yes.”
Gale was a bit hesitant.
If it were just herself, then she would have already said it. There was nothing much to hide
Since she did it, she would admit to it.
However, this involved Aurum.
The thought had just flashed in Gale’s mind when Shawn said, “Did Aurum help you?”
Why did this man seem like he could read minds?
Gale did not say anything.
Shawn continued, “I won’t touch him, and I won’t get angry at him. Galey, I just want to know what happened.”
“Why do you want to know this so suddenly?”
Shawn’s lips were against her skin. “I told you, I want us to treat each other honestly. I want to get over any lingering issues. Galey, this is the only thing I haven’t been able to get over when it comes to you. How did you fake your death and leave me.”
Gale had been the one who did it, so Shawn needed Gale to unravel the mystery!
Gale could not understand what Shawn was thinking.
She had been the one who came to look for him to discuss things, so how did he suddenly seize control of the whole conversation like that?
She even started to forget why she had gone to the Wood Group in the first place!
Shawn said gently, “Galey, we’ve had too many misunderstandings in the past. Let’s make everything clear today, okay? I just want to know what happened away from my notice that night at the yacht.”
Worried she would overthink things, Shawn added, “I just want to know. I don’t have anything else in mind.
He rubbed against her neck. It was like they were lovers.
Lovers?
No, the two of them had never really been lovers.
They had been husband and wife from the start, signing a marriage together.
“Shawn, are you really not going to push the matter?”
He answered, “Yes. It’s already in the past What I care about is the present and the future, not the past
After a few seconds of silence, Gale decided to tell him.
She was just revealing the truth behind her jumping into the sea anyway. It was not like she was revealing Joshua’s existence.
Furthermore, he had already guessed it anyway. In the end, this would just make things quicker.
Gale obediently leaned into his embrace like a little kitten. “Alright. You were right. I really worked with Aurum to plan out everything.”
Shawn’s body stiffened slightly.
He quickly relaxed again. “I’m listening, Galey.”
“I wanted a divorce back then. I wanted to cut off all ties with you and never interact with you anymore. Yet, you refused to let go. Aurum said he could help me, but I was always hesitant and never made the decision. It was my mother’s death that truly got me to take action.”
“I deliberately jumped down. I already knew there were divers in the sea. They would catch me and bring me to shore before leaving Sea City.”
“Aurum was on the other yacht, closely observing me. He had arranged the escape path and all the people involved.”
“After I jumped down, the sea swallowed me whole. I quickly lost consciousness. By the time I woke up, I was already in a car. Outside the car was the scenery that I had never seen before.
