Skeletons Of The Marital Closet

Chapter 753

Gale shut her eyes slightly, and her hands were pulling at Shawn’s shirt.

At that moment, the door to the room suddenly opened.

The attending doctor walked in with the nurses. “Mr. Wood… Uh…” This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Was that a scene they were allowed to see?

The doctor was stunned for a few seconds before hurriedly turning around and walking out. “I’m sorry, Mr. Wood. W… We did not see a single thing! We’ll leave right away! You can continue!”

The nurses ran after the doctor in a hurry as well.

Gale covered her face, feeling like she was going to cry.

That was completely embarrassing!

She really wanted to explain that she and Shawn were not doing anything, that she had just happened to slip and fall on the bed, and that the stance they were in was just a coincidence!

It really was!

It was nothing like what they thought!

“It’s your fault!” Gale glared at Shawn. “How am I going to even face them now!”

She was still angry and hammered his chest a few times.

Shawn had an innocent look on his face. “I did nothing. You slipped and fell yourself. You even dragged me with you.”

“You were the one who tricked Nicole into signing the document!”

“I told you, she did it herself.”

Gale clenched her teeth. “So it’s all my fault?”

“Of course not.” Shawn raised his eyebrow slightly. “How could I blame you?”

She pushed at him forcefully. “Get up!”

Shawn finally got up slowly.

He dusted off the wrinkles on his shirt. “It’s fine, Galey. Even if they saw it, they won’t say anything.”

“They just won’t say anything in front of us. In private, who knows what kind of gossip they’ll be saying!”

“Then let them. We’re husband and wife. It’s perfectly normal for us to do something like that.”

Gale was so embarrassed she wanted to cover his mouth.

Something like what?!

How could he say that?!

Before Gale could even cover his mouth, Shawn grabbed her wrist and gently pulled her up from the bed.

He carefully pulled down her skirt slightly. “Tidy yourself up. I’ll call the doctor over.”

She lowered her head, and her blush had already reached her neck.

Normally, there would only be a few of them when the nurses or the doctors came to check in on them.

Why was there such a big crowd this time?

They happened to see her and Shawn in such an awkward and embarrassing position!

Shawn walked to the door and said in a low voice, “Come in.”

Only then did the doctors and nurses walk back into the room.

Everyone acted as if nothing had happened.

The doctor pushed up his glasses. “This is the situation, Mr. Wood, Mrs. Wood. I came this time to confirm Ms. Nicole’s operation date.”

The moment she heard that Gale no longer cared about that embarrassing situation. She also forgot about the doctor calling her Mrs. Wood.

“Is Nicole already ready for surgery?” She asked, “When?”

“The bone marrow is a match, and Mr. Wood is willing to accommodate the bone marrow transplant unconditionally. Ms. Nicole’s current situation is suitable for surgery as well. Both of them are in stable condition, so surgery can be done. As for the time, we’ll need to discuss it with you.”

“The sooner, the better!” Gale answered without thinking, “When is the soonest it can be done?”

She was worried that Nicole’s condition would worsen if they dragged it on or something unexpected might happen.

Furthermore…

She did not want to spend every day with Shawn. They even needed to sleep in the same bed at night!

The doctor flipped through his documents. “The earliest is next weekend.”

Shawn said calmly, “The speed is not important. When will be the most suitable time to have the surgery?”
