Skeletons Of The Marital Closet

Chapter 930

He did not know how long it took. The dark sky began to brighten, and it was already midnight when the movement in the master bedroom slowly subsided.

At Shawn’s feet, there was a pile of cigarette butts.

With a soft click, the door of the master bedroom opened, and a strong and burly bodyguard sneaked out from inside, with his upper body naked and his own clothes in his hands.

“Mr. Wood, I…I have fulfilled your order,” the bodyguard said.

Shawn stood there casually and asked lightly, “How do you feel?”

“Uh, it’s pretty good. Ms. Nightingale passed out, and she fell asleep quickly, so I slipped out easily.

Shawn twitched the corner of his mouth and turned around. “Yes, you performed very well.”

The bodyguard lowered his head. “Thank you, Mr. Wood, for your compliment.”

“In the future, there will be many opportunities like this. Enjoy it while it lasts,” Shawn said.

The bodyguard grinned and scratched his head. “Thank you, Mr. Wood! Thank you, Mr. Wood!”

Winnie used to be a female star with fair skin and a good figure, and she thought the bodyguard was Shawn, so she worked hard to cater to him, and he naturally felt quite wonderful.

Mr. Wood rewarded him with such a wonderful woman. Of course, the bodyguard was happy!

Shawn waved his hand, and the bodyguard hurriedly put on his clothes and left in a hurry.

The second floor was silent again.

Shawn did not want to go into the master bedroom but could imagine the scene.

That bed was already dirty. He was a clean freak and did not even want to touch it.

He would wait until tomorrow morning, let the servants come to change the sheets and quilts, and even change the bed!

After dusting off the cigarette ash, Shawn turned on his toes and walked toward Nicole’s bedroom.

The night was still young, and he wanted to go accompany his daughter.

Unexpectedly, when Shawn pushed the door open, he heard soft sobbing.

His heart sank instantly. “Nicole?”

No response.

Shawn walked quickly to the bed, opened the curtain, and saw Nicole tightly closing her eyes, holding the doll in her arms with both hands, curled up into a small ball with tears all over her face.

She was still shaking.

He yelled several times, but Nicole still did not respond.

Shawn immediately stretched out his hand to hold her in his arms and coaxed her in a low voice,” Nicole, wake up. Daddy is here… Did you have a nightmare?”

After a while, Nicole slowly opened her eyes.

There were tears in her eyes, and the corners of her eyes were red. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

Seeing this, Shawn’s heart was about to break.

“Nicole, don’t be afraid, it’s a dream. You’ve woken up now. Did you dream about the devil again?” Shawn said.

Nicole nodded.

“There are no devils. This is home. With Daddy here, there are servants and bodyguards outside.”

“No one can approach you and hurt you,” Shawn comforted.

Nicole raised the back of her hand and rubbed her eyes. “Father, it’s so scary, so scary. I…I dare not sleep alone.”

“Okay, Dad will sleep with you every night.”

Nicole’s eyes lit up. “Can I sleep with Daddy?”

“Of course. You are afraid of sleeping alone. Why did you not tell me before going to bed tonight?” Shawn replied.

Nicole bit her lips. “I always sleep by myself. Mommy said that I could no longer rely on Mommy when I grew up. So, I just…”

“Did Mommy say that today?”

“No, I said it a long time ago. Besides, I seem to have made Mommy unhappy today. I dare not ask Mommy to sleep with me.”

Shawn’s eyes were filled with distress.

He sighed. “Nicole, you have been here only for a few nights…”

Damn Winnie for scaring Nicole into such a state. She was still having nightmares when she returned home!

Nicole sniffed. “It’s not bad tonight. Daddy, I haven’t seen that bloody devil anymore.”

“Because this is home, there will be no devil.”

“Yeah!” Nicole leaned into his arms. “With daddy here, Daddy can drive away the devil.”
