They were about to get a divorce!Bad!'No, absolutely not, this matter can't be done so casually!' the housekeeper thought.He had to figure out a way.The housekeeper quietly left the dining room.Shawn and Gale only cared about Nicole's emotions and did not care about the surroundings at all.While wiping Nicole's tears, Gale said, "Then, seeing that Nicole misses you so much and cries like this, are you satisfied and happy?""I..."Forget it. There are too many mistakes.Do not explain.Shawn did not expect that Nicole's reaction would be so great. His daughter still cared for him. Thinking about it this way, his empty heart was more or less comforted.The daughter will also be the bond between him and Gale for the rest of his life."Daddy, in my heart, you are as important as Mommy." Nicole looked at him with teary eyes.She looked a bit like Gale, and Shawn's heart melted when he saw it.Shawn patted her head deeply. "Well, I see. Nicole can like Mommy and Daddy."
"Really? Why didn't I know that my home was in trouble?"As he spoke, he casually glanced in the direction of the housekeeper.The housekeeper lowered his head, not daring to look directly at him.Who could resist Shawn's sharp eyes?That was a death stare!Before Lucas said anything, Shawn had already guessed who had informed him!Lucas spent his days in the old home, living a leisurely life. His greatest wish was to have a great-grandchild in his arms. It had been fulfilled, and he had no regrets or anything he must do.For ordinary things, it was impossible to please the old man!"Stop pretending." Lucas snorted heavily, pointing at Shawn, "You."Then, his finger moved slightly, pointing at Gale, "And you!"Gale looked surprised.She always felt that she could stay out of it because she could not understand what Lucas and Shawn were talking about.She thought it was none of her business.Unexpectedly... Lucas called her by name?"What's wrong? Lucas, I haven't offended
"Grandpa, the divorce is a matter between me and Gale. We have decided and reached an agreement, and that's enough," Shawn said very calmly.After a few seconds of silence, he added, "I respect you very much. As long as you are still alive, I need to support you and let you decide all matters of the Wood family.""Why are you getting a divorce? She married into the Wood family, and she is the daughter-in-law of my Wood family. Her every move represents the Wood family! It's the Wood family, and you have to get my consent for divorce!" Lucas said.The more Lucas talked, the more aggravated he became.Gale said nothing.After all, this was Shawn's grandfather, so let him handle it!"So, does Grandpa agree to our divorce?"When Gale heard what he said, she got anxious and tugged on his sleeve again.How could he ask such a question?The old man would definitely disagree! Otherwise, why would he rush here in such a hurry?"Of course, I don't agree! You have gone through so much;
However, Gale still wanted to stand up for Shawn. "Shawn didn't do anything to me.""Then why are you getting a divorce?""The relationship is broken. There is no love for each other anymore, life together is meaningless, and we will not be happy if we are forced to be together, so it is better to separate," Gale said."You guys are out of your minds! You have already reached this point. You have children. What can't be accommodated? In life, husband and wife support and understand each other to make it to the end."Lucas always felt that the two of them just bickered and quarreled, and then they decided to divorce in anger.Just a little persuasion would be fine."Couples would always quarrel, but there is a good saying: every argument ends at bedtime. Take a day to calm down. Don't do anything while you are angry.""And no matter how angry you are, don't talk about divorce casually. It is taboo in marriage. It's okay."As he said that, Lucas waved his hand. "That's it, Shawn.
"Do you think Nicole is stupid? Do you think she won't understand what divorce means? No matter how much you pretend, no matter how harmonious you are, you are no longer husband and wife. You don't eat at the same table, sleep on the same bed, and live separately!"Gale wanted to argue, but Lucas raised his hand and stopped her."Don't talk back with me. At my age, I have experienced far more than you! Gale, your parents...you were very happy until you were twenty, so I won't talk about it."Lucas paused for a few seconds, then looked at Shawn."Shawn. You are different from Gale. You grew up... living in a family environment that divorced. Your father remarried and gave birth to a younger brother. How did your life get by?"The corner of Shawn's mouth twitched slightly.It seemed to have reminded him of the past.Those childhood memories that no one knew.Gale was taken aback for a while.That was right. Shawn was a child who grew up in a divorced family environment.He was
Because of Shawn's status, others would not talk about him to his face. They would only flatter him, but when he turned around, they would speak badly of him.Moreover, the stepmother would bully him discreetly, making him feel uncomfortable, but he could not say it out loud.For example, the stepmother only bought new toys for the younger brother, not for him.For example, in the school's parent-teacher meeting, she would go to his younger brother's classroom first and arrive at his class late.He thought that he would never think of these things again, but he did not expect that he would remember them because he was going to divorce Gale... "I don't understand, but you can see that Nicole has never felt inferior," Gale replied."Not now. What about one year after our divorce? Two years? As she grows up and becomes sensible?"Gale looked sideways at his sharp jaw. "So... are you going to go back on your word?"They would not get a divorce because of what Lucas said. "I..."
After a few seconds of silence, she said, "Who on earth informed him?"She was suspicious of Shawn!However, she could not ask him directly!Shawn replied, "It wasn't me! If I don't want to divorce, I wouldn't have agreed to you. I didn't know Grandpa would make such a fuss."The phone rang.Shawn answered the phone. "Hello?""Mr. Wood...Your grandpa just... just woke up suddenly..." the housekeeper said."Woke up?""Yes, yes, he has something to tell you!"The housekeeper brought the phone to Lucas."Shawn, if you really get a divorce, then... that... would be a big disobedience! It is pissing me off!""If you still want me to live a few more years, you have to listen to me!""It pissed me off... You think the Wood family belongs to you. You can do whatever you want, and no one can control you anymore. Are you satisfied?"Lucas took a breath after speaking."Grandpa, you are threatening me," Shawn replied."I'm going to threaten you.... If you want to die and hold a fun
"It's a good thing you arrived on time. Otherwise, Shawn and his wife would have gone to the Civil Affairs Bureau… it is just a few minutes away." The housekeeper was a little terrified."I really don't know what these two people are thinking. They are still talking about divorce! Young people are just outragous!"The housekeeper replied, "I don't know what happened, it was fine two days ago.""Are you sure they're fine? Will they be fine someday… This conflict has always been there, and it hasn't been resolved at all."Although Lucas was old, he was not old-fashioned, and his heart was like a mirror.The so-called 'father-killing vengeance' doomed Shawn and Gale to indelible pain.Now, the old wound has not healed, and a new wound has been added!Lucas sighed and paused, thinking of the scene just now. He found it funny and could not help laughing."I'm old, and I just pretended to faint... I've never done this kind of thing in my life. Now, for the sake of the relationship be
