"Gale Warm, what the Warm family owes me is for you to pay!" Shawn Wood threw Gale Warm into a mental hospital, tortured and humiliated. Two years later, he married her. "Don't be delusional, you are just here to atone for your family sins." He hated her, and only wanted to bully her.Gale Warm endured it while searching for the truth, and proved her family's innocence. Later, Gale Warm threw the evidence on Shawn Wood's face. "I never owed you." Later, Shawn Wood turned pale overnight. He whispered in her ear day and night. "Gale, don't leave me. Otherwise, I won’t be able to live..." "Shawn Wood, how dare you threaten me!" "How dare I? You wouldn’t want our children to have no father, would you?"

Shawn's heart sank. He forgot that his two children were right beside him. Shawn said with a faint smile, trying to ease the tension, "It was an accident. Nicole, don't be afraid." "Oh, I thought you were throwing a tantrum and tossing your phone," Joshua teased. He denied it. Joshua glanced at Shawn, "Are you calling Mommy?" Shawn did not answer. "Is she out drinking with godmother again? You've been left behind, only able to stay home and keep my sister and me company? Tsk tsk, Dad, you..." Joshua guessed."Shut up." "I'll say what I want. You should give Mommy some freedom. She's not meeting up with a man, why are you checking up on her!" Joshua said.Shawn snorted. "A man? Meeting up? She wouldn't even think about it!" "Calm down, calm down. She'll be back in an hour," Joshua said.An hour? Shawn could not even wait a minute more. He did not want his emotions to affect the two children, so he got up and left the villa. The night was cool. Autumn had arrived, and

Paul had slept with many female celebrities, but so it was quite difficult to get someone as reserved and dignified as Ivy into bed. He did not have the patience to pursue her genuinely, to date her, so he can only resort to this method.Anyway, it was just a fun night.In the entertainment industry, everyone's here for a good time. Coincidentally, Aurum has the same idea. So, they plotted to make a move."Take her away. I'll leave Ivy to you." Aurum waved his hand."Thank you, Aurum!""But, be gentle. She still has to star in this movie, understand?" Aurum reminded."Crystal clear! I know my limits!"With Aurum's permission, Paul happily headed toward Ivy. He would have fun that night! He was ecstatic. The moment he laid eyes on Ivy, he knew he had never been with a woman like her before. Finally, she was in his hands. Paul supported Ivy as they left the private room.Aurum walked over to Gale, knelt down on one knee, lifted her hand, and gently slid his fingertips across he

Why did Ivy also experience the same situation as her? Aurum too! Gale suddenly turned her head and looked toward Aurum's direction. He had slumped back into his chair, unconscious, with his eyes closed. Aurum was the first to experience dizziness. Then it was her, followed by Ivy. What on earth happened? Shawn's admonition echoed in Gale's mind, 'Gale, I'm worried that person will come after you next.' Could it be that she was targeted so quickly? How did she get targeted? She did not eat anything random, nor did she interact with strangers! The person behind this was terrifying, and their methods were too cunning; she was completely defenseless. Gale only had one thought in her mind: to get out. She needed to leave this private room as soon as possible. The door was right in front of her! Gale reached for the door handle, but she had no strength left. She could not even open the door."What's happening to you guys?" Paul's voice rang out. "Aurum? Aurum? Mrs. Wood? And Ivy, you..

This would also be Ivy's first movie after leaving her talent agency and joining the Wood Group. In a way, it was a debut. By then, Ivy's position in the entertainment industry would look completely stable. She had the talent, the projects, and the looks."I'll walk you out." Ivy took Gale's hand. "I meant to treat you to dinner to thank you, but I ended up neglecting you… ""It's okay, you're busy."Her phone buzzed in her bag several times again. Gale knew if she did reply to Shawn's messages now, he would definitely come looking for her.Before leaving, Gale suddenly thought of something. She would be leaving Ivy with two men. Would it be inappropriate?She was unsure about Paul's character as she had just met him. However, she could trust Aurum. After some thought, Gale turned to Aurum. "Before we go, I'll leave Ivy in your care."Having known each other for years, Aurum would surely understand what she meant. She was entrusting him to take care of Ivy."Don't worry. After o

Did Aurum insist on Ivy as the female lead, as he was the investor and had a say? Paul had to agree? However, Gale remembered Aurum saying it was Ivy's acting that impressed Paul, right? Aurum noticed Gale's confusion and explained, "I recommended Ivy to Paul. Initially, he was torn between several well-known actresses. After meeting Ivy through me, he made the decision."Paul laughed heartily. "Thanks to Mr. Lefting. Not only does Mr. Lefting have a strong influence in the business world, but his eye for casting is also exceptional!"Unnoticed by anyone, Paul discreetly rubbed his hands under the table. His palms were sweating. The investment in this movie was enormous. After initial budgeting, it was found he would require an investment of at least 100 million dollars. Although Paul was famous, that was no small sum. At that cost base, it would be harder to make a profit. Why take such a risk when there were plenty of high-return investment projects awaiting investors? Business

Heh, Aurum would not let her go home so easily."Gale, if you don't mind, you can come with Ivy and me. Just say hi, and treat it like you're meeting a new friend. After all, you're Ivy's boss now. You should also care about her career, right?" Aurum said.He said it half-jokingly, half-seriously. He knew Gale would not refuse for this reason.Ivy chimed in, "Yes, Gale, the director is very humorous and knowledgeable. He's a well-known young director in the industry. It's still early; after meeting him, we can leave together."Aurum raised an eyebrow. He did not expect Ivy to support him. However, Ivy had no idea what Aurum was thinking. She sincerely and innocently wanted to invite Gale to join them.Gale hesitated for a moment.Aurum added, "Oh, I forgot to tell you, this director's name is Paul Morecroft. You must have heard of him.""Paul Morecroft, the director? Him?" Gale was surprised. "I've heard his name before. I must meet him."Paul was known to be a rare genius in t

The unspoken words hung in the air.Even Gale, sitting beside him, could see it clearly on Aurum's face. Ivy noticed it too. She wondered why Aurum seemed reluctant to speak to her. Was it because Gale was present, making it awkward to open up, or was it something else entirely? Ivy suppressed her thoughts and stopped her mind from wandering aimlessly.She felt off lately, different from her usual self. Perhaps it was because she had been single for too long. When she met Shawn, she felt her heart race, a slight flutter of excitement. Now, being around Aurum, her heart pounded even more fiercely. Shawn was someone she did not dare and absolutely could not fantasize about. But Aurum... he was single like her.Gale, both overtly and subtly, seemed to hint at the possibility of a match between them. Ivy could sense it. But did Aurum feel the same way? He seemed to show some interest, but Ivy was not entirely sure. She was afraid of overthinking things.While Ivy worried away, Gale d

She thought they would have a good shot together."Such a coincidence. Aurum, are you here to dine too?" Gale asked."Yes, meeting a friend but I arrived early; he's still on his way.""Take a seat then, it's rare to bump into each other here. Ivy and I were just discussing endorsements," Gale greeted.Aurum sat down, smiling warmly. "Ivy is quite busy nowadays, endorsing Lovito and reading scripts simultaneously.""Scripts?""Yes, for the movie I invested in. I introduced Ivy to the director. They got along well, and the director approves of her. I believe she's perfect for the lead role," Aurum explained.Gale's face lit up with delight. "Really? That's wonderful!"When Aurum and Ivy first met and talked about the investment in the movie, she casually mentioned Ivy taking the lead role in the movie funded by Aurum. Now, it has happened so quickly. It seemed it was progressing smoothly."It's her talent and understanding of the role that earned her the director's approval. Th

Ivy felt a bit embarrassed at her praises. "Mr. Wood is truly the most impeccable person I've ever seen, with the most defined facial features. Having such a husband is a blessing envied by many.""He indeed does look flawless. But, you get used to it after seeing it for a while." Ivy looked amused. "You're really adorable."Before meeting Gale, Ivy had assumed that wealthy wives of her caliber were aloof and unapproachable. Furthermore, she would be surrounded by people who were constantly giving her false flattery. It was amazing Gale could remain so approachable.Gale took a sip of water. "To be honest, before coming here today, I consulted the advertising department. Next month, we can start working… "During casual conversations, Gale was quite laid back. However, when it came to work, she was decisive, serious, and responsible. They discussed the details of the endorsement while having dinner.They did not notice that a car had been parked for a long time across the stre
