Skeletons Of The Marital Closet

Chapter 247

She hid her knife there!

Could Shawn have noticed?

Gale did not dare think about it any further. She held her breath, not daring to breathe.

Shawn gently pried her hand away. “What? Why are you so afraid of me touching your pillow?”

“I…I’m not…”

“Are you worried I’d find it?”

Shawn quickly pulled out the knife hidden beneath the pillow as he said that.

Gale was completely dumbfounded.

He actually knew of her hidden knife!

How did he know that?!

“Are you surprised?” Shawn’s defined hand held the knife. “You hid it so well, but I still noticed it…” Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

“Y…You…” Gale stammered, unable to say anything.

It was the first time she felt how scary and unfathomable that man could be!

Shawn said casually, “You asked the guards to buy so

many fruits, but the knife disappeared. I guessed it very easily.”

Gale bit her lips.

“The room is so large, so where could you hide it? It’s obviously the pillow. Gale, tell me, what were you hiding this knife for?” Shawn said.

He raised an eyebrow, looking incredibly calm. He did not seem angry at all.

Since it was already noticed, then there was no need for

Gale to hide it.

She would speak the truth!

“I wanted to kill you!” She met his gaze. “Shawn, ever since you appeared in my life, all you’ve brought me is endless pain! Now, you’ve even killed my child. You’re my mortal enemy!”

“You hate me so much?”

“Yes!”

“You hate me so much because of your child?”

Gale answered, “No, everything you’ve done to me has made me hate you. I want you to die right now!”

The more she spoke, the wider Shawn’s smile became.

He nodded. “Alright, Gale, I’ll give you a chance. You can take my life and take my heart.”

As he said that, Shawn handed the knife to her.

Gale did not accept it.

He pushed it into her hand, making her hold it. “Be careful. It’s very sharp. Don’t hurt yourself.”

Gale clenched it tightly, feeling like the situation was incredibly surreal.

“You know I want to kill you, yet you’re giving me the knife?”

She thought that Shawn would take the knife away, that he would throw it away and never let her touch it again.

“Yes. Gale, you can do it now,” Shawn said.

He was incredibly calm, but her hand was shaking.

“The second step to proving that I love you has started. I can give you my life and my fortune. You can do whatever you want with them,” Shawn said in a deep voice.

“Aren’t you… afraid of death?”

“If I die at your hands, it’s worth it.”

Gale bit her lower lip forcefully. “Shawn, don’t think that I won’t do it. Don’t think that I wouldn’t dare!”

“You would, of course, you’d dare. Start, Gale.”

Shawn was incredibly confident and incredibly calm. He even held Gale’s trembling hand and pointed the knife

right at his heart.

All he wore was a blue shirt.

The shirt was incredibly thin, and it would be pierced. through with just a stab.

As long as Gale applied just a bit of force, the knife would pierce forward, going through cloth and skin.

“Hold it tighter. Please do it fast and accurately. Don’t do it slowly. The pain would be even greater if you do,”

Shawn said.

Gale did not look into his eyes but merely at the tip of his knife.

Shawn was not avoiding it. Shawn had handed his life over to her completely.
