Skeletons Of The Marital Closet

Chapter 243

“Shawn loves me deeply, but he can’t accept that child. Now that I’ve had a miscarriage, he wants us to be a normal, loving couple.”

Susan shook her head vigorously. “I…Impossible!”

“If you don’t believe me, you can ask him.”

“How could Mr. Wood like you?! You’re the daughter of his enemy!” Susan shouted out, unable to believe it.

“Love is love. He admitted it himself.” Gale walked closer to Susan, lowering her voice. “But I don’t love him. So… If you tell me who the man from that night is, I’ll retreat, and you’ll get another chance.”

Susan wiped the dirty water from her face before falling silent. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

He clearly knew that Gale was the daughter of his enemy but did not know that Gale was the woman from that night. Even under those circumstances, Shawn still fell in love with Gale.

How deep were his feelings for her?!

“Are you going to tell me or not? Are you going to keep this secret your whole life?” Gale asked.

Susan stared at her and answered, “I will never tell you.

Never!”

That man was actually Shawn!

How could Susan say that?!

It was a secret that could not be revealed. She had to hold it in forever!

Gale nodded and said, “It looks like you haven’t had enough. Come, I’ll bring you somewhere else.”

She grabbed Susan’s arm, pulling Susan up.

“Gale! Let go. Where are you bringing me?!”

“The toilet. The toilet bowl.”

Susan’s expression changed dramatically. “I won’t go! Save me! Someone, hurry up and save me… What are all of you standing there and watching for? Are you really going to stand aside while I am being forced to drink toilet water… Save me!”

No one walked forward.

Susan acted too arrogantly normally, which ruined any goodwill others had for her.

On top of that, during her time at Temperley Hall, she would berate the servants constantly, scolding them at every turn. Many of the servants held grudges against her.

So, they were all incredibly happy looking at Susan’s pathetic state!

They wanted Gale to teach that mistress who did not know her place a lesson!

Gale was usually too mild–tempered. She should have been this hard from the start!

Standing next to the toilet bowl, Gale said, “I’ll give you one last chance. Susan, if you don’t tell me…”

“Just you wait, Gale. Just you wait! I’ll pay you back ten times worse for how you’ve treated me today!”

“Shawn doesn’t even want to see you anymore. Do you really think you still have a chance?”

“Of course I do!”

Gale shrugged. “You really are confident. Ten seconds. Time starts now.”

There was a moment of silence.

Susan clenched her teeth. She looked at the water in the toilet bowl and immediately started to retch.

“Five, four, three, two, one…”

The moment the time started, Gale did not hesitate to push Susan’s head into the toilet bowl.

“No, no! Save me…”

Gale was quick, precise, and ruthless. She did not hesitate at all.

This time, she did not pull Susan’s head up. Instead, she continued to press Susan’s head down.

“If you want to speak, just nod. If you don’t want to, then just continue staying in the toilet bowl!” Gale said.

Susan’s hands were flailing in the air. She knelt in front of the toilet bowl, unable to lift her head up. She did not dare to open her mouth either, worried about swallowing the water inside.

Until…

“Gale, Are you done?” Shawn’s voice was heard.

Gale looked up and saw the handsome man who had suddenly appeared in front of the washroom.

Hearing that voice, Susan struggled even more intensely.
