"Who else?""A little girl."Lucas asked in surprise, "Whose? Gale's?""Right."Lucas said, "You haven't seen her for four years. She has remarried and had a child? Then what should you do!"Shawn coughed deeply. "No..."Lucas said very earnestly, "I know you like Gale very much, and you risked your life for her, but look, she put it down and had a new life. You just bless her from afar.""Grandpa, that's my child.""Grandpa is someone who has seen years and years of..."Shawn interrupted him and repeated again, "Grandpa, that's my daughter."Lucas paused, opened his mouth halfway, and forgot to blink his eyes, staring at Shawn in a daze.After a long time, he came back to his senses. "What did you just say?""I say it for the third time, Grandpa, it's...""She is you and Gale's daughter?!?"As soon as the child was mentioned, Lucas regained his energy."Yes." Shawn nodded deeply.Lucas's crutches fell off with a bang.He clasped his hands together, raised his head, an
"Anyway, I will give it to her from now on. I'm so happy, and I finally have a granddaughter!" Lucas said with a smile.The old man was not patriarchal at all, and his ideas were very open and avant-garde.He even thought that girls were pretty good.They were fragrant, soft, and coquettish, so it was easy to be with them, much better than boys!In addition, the three generations of the Wood family were all boys, and now they finally have Nicole!Lucas said, "Wait, I'll come back later. I'll ask the secretary to prepare the share transfer certificate..."Before he could finish speaking, the door of the ward opened suddenly.Gale walked out, holding Nicole."Daddy!" Nicole saw Shawn at a glance, shouted sweetly, and then looked at the old man. "Hello, Grandpa!"Nicole has always been polite.When she sees someone old, she naturally calls them Grandpa and Grandma.However, for Lucas, the word Grandpa warmed his heart, and he was even so excited that tears filled his eyes!Gal
Therefore, when there was nothing to do, everything was peaceful.As long as something touches the principle, all the contradictions will be thoroughly stimulated.Lucas replied, "There is everything in the old house, but there are no children's toys. However, the things I want to give her cannot be bought outside.""Can't buy it?"Gale felt a little strange.What was he going to give to Nicole?"I always wanted a great-grandson in my dreams. Look, this wish has come true today! There is a successor to the Wood family. I am so excited!"Gale thought about it and said, "Nicole is my child and Shawn's, but that doesn't mean she will be the heir of the Wood family."Lucas's smile froze suddenly."I hope that Nicole can have a free life. She can choose any life she wants. If she is willing to inherit the Wood Group, I will definitely respect her choice. But I never wanted her to be raised as an heir since she was a child.""Nicole will be your great-granddaughter. The blood relat
Gale was stunned.'Isn't this a problem for her?!'"Shawn, can you stop making trouble? What does a child want hundreds of billions of wealth for?" she said."This is what my daughter deserves.""That will have to wait until she becomes an adult!"Shawn looked deeply into her eyes. "Then... transfer it to your name first? You will transfer it to her after she becomes an adult."Gale smacked her forehead.They sounded as though it was just like passing on a vegetable in a market.These were shares!Worth hundreds of billions!Gale does not want these things. For her, these shares will become her burden!Lucas said, "Then there's no need."It was okay to give it to Nicole, but if it was given to Gale, Lucas still needed to think about it carefully.What if Gale remarries?Shares are the foundation of a company. It would be terrible if her next husband controlled the shares!"Yes, you don't have to give it to me, and I won't ask for it. Lucas, Shawn, if you really want to b
"Shawn, I made things very clear in front of your grandfather just now.""I've never really given you any gifts. This is my…"Gale interrupted him, "Shawn, everything you give is just too valuable. I wouldn't dare to accept them."That crown, the Heart of the Deep Sea, felt like it burnt her to touch it back then.Yet, he wanted her to accept those shares.Gale sighed. "I've never wanted these things. Forget it."She put the contract gently on the table.Shawn stood in place."Galey, I've been thinking for the past few days, wondering what I need to do to earn a true smile on your face. I want to give you everything I have, I don't even need anything for myself, but you don't care about that. You don't even spare it another glance. What do you want? Freedom? I've already given that to you. I told you I would let you leave with Nicole, and I'll make sure it's done. I won't stop you."Gale met his gaze.His eyes were so deep and dark."Shawn, it might be impossible to give me
"Is it that easy?""Yes."Shawn even carefully put the pen in her hand.Nicole held it and started to write her name.The words were not that well-written, but it was neat enough.Shawn took out the ink pad. "Come, Nicole, put your thumb on this and press it on the paper."Nicole did so.It was the first time she had done something like that, so she felt like it was quite fun. She stained all five of her fingers in the ink before she slapped her hand on where the signature needed to be.Shawn let out a satisfied smile at the sight.Yes, even his daughter was not immune to his schemes!Shawn nodded. "Very good. You're so smart, Nicole.""But daddy, what if I can't take care of so many people when I grow up?""It's okay. You can pay someone to manage it for you. You just have to count your money."Nicole nodded as if she understood.Gale had just finished making some soup, and she brought it to the table."Mommy!" Nicole took the contract and waved it in front of Gale prou
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…"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
He naturally knew what was on Gale's mind.Was it so hard for her to be by his side?However, Shawn still kept his wits about him and was thinking about Nicole's health.He would not delay things on purpose, nor would he drag things forward."The next weekend is perfectly fine. Our team is quite confident that this surgery will be a success," the doctor answered."Good.""Mr. Wood, Mrs. Wood, then please sign your agreement on this document."Gale picked up the pen and signed it without any hesitation.Shawn signed it as well.Their names were right next to each other.It was at that moment that Gale realized again that Shawn and she were still lawfully wedded.Both of them needed to sign for Nicole's signature.They were still married!They did not get a divorce!Gale looked away. "Thank you, doctor. I hope you'll do your best on this surgery and let Nicole recover her health so she can just be a normal child.""Don't worry, Mrs. Wood."Gale felt a huge sense of relief
