"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

Shawn frowned tightly. He was deep in thought when he saw Sam quickly walking over.Sam stared at him. "Mr. Wood, where is Gale?"Shawn put down the phone. "What? You want to see her?""Of course!""She's fine. She's healthy and safe. You don't have to disturb her," Shawn said."If she was healthy, why would you two always be at the hospital?""It's because our daughter is sick."Sam's eyes widened. "Your… daughter?""Yes." Shawn raised his eyebrow. He had a prideful tone in his voice. "Galey is not dead. She was saved. She even had my child back then and successfully gave birth. Our family of three is getting along harmoniously."Yes, it was harmonious. He did not use the wrong word.Their family stayed together and did everything together. They were practically together twenty-four hours a day.It was great.Sam found it hard to accept the news. He was stunned in place.Shawn walked past him. "It's no longer possible for you and Galey. Just be the Carson family's heir pe

Summer didn't know, but the more she said that, the more unsettled Gale felt inside. Everyone was telling her that Shawn wasn't that busy, didn't need to work overtime, let alone stay in the office until late at night. So, what was he doing that night? Did he have some secret that she couldn't know?Just as she was pondering this, several exclamations suddenly rang out in the office. "Wow! Look at this!" "Oh my god!" "This is so explosive!" "The hype is skyrocketing!"Several colleagues were glued to their computer screens, their faces full of gossip and excitement. Gale was puzzled and asked, "What's going on? What happened?"Summer immediately picked up her phone. "Let me see... Oh my god!"Gale grew even more curious. What on earth had happened? She hurried over and stared at Summer's phone screen.News stories flashed one after another, relentlessly. Gale quickly caught the most crucial information: "Ivy announced her withdrawal from her latest film, leaving the female

She wondered what Shawn was doing that night, that he came home only at dawn. Where did he go? Was he lying?Just a moment ago, Gale merely felt something was off, but now, she was overwhelmed with a strong sense of panic. Joshua's words about how women flocked to Shawn and how men would not be suddenly busy, suddenly flooded her mind.Even though Gale tried hard to tell herself not to overthink things, that it was impossible, and that Shawn deserved her full trust, she was having a hard time controlling herself!“Gale?" Summer called her several times. “What are you thinking about? You seem so distracted.”“Nothing,” she shook her head. “It’s nothing. I’m getting ready to work on the design. I really can’t delay any further.”She wasn’t in the mood to joke around with Joe and Summer anymore, so she turned and sat down in front of her computer. Her mind was completely blank. What on earth was Shawn doing that night when he came home so late? Clearly, there wasn’t any urgent matter

Summer chuckled, "Look at you, anyone who doesn't know might think I bully you just because my position is higher than yours. Gale, come on, show some authority. I heard from Joe that Shawn has all the shares...""Shh!" Gale quickly covered her mouth. This was a sensitive matter; it wouldn't do to discuss it casually. If someone with ill intentions overheard, it could lead to unnecessary trouble."Okay, okay, I won't say anything," Summer understood her meaning. "Let's talk about work then? Oh great designer, where's your design draft? It was due last week! You've been delaying for quite some time!"Gale looked embarrassed. "I... I haven't finished it yet...""Show me the draft.""I haven't even started the preliminary draft...""What?!" Summer looked shocked. "Gale, how did you become so lax?""There's so much going on, taking care of two children, and Shawn..." Gale's voice trailed off.At this moment, Joe suddenly appeared from nowhere. "Is Shawn clinging to you, or are you

“Sorry, Gale, I'll be more careful next time.” He hugged her, lightly brushing her forehead with his chin.Gale wondered if she was overthinking things. It was just normal work busyness that made Shawn come home a bit late, and she hadn't really minded or dwelled on it. But, it seemed this issue kept resurfacing in her mind.Just as she was thinking, she suddenly felt lighter."Ah..." Gale exclaimed, "Shawn!"He scooped her up horizontally and headed upstairs in large strides. It was another night of intense entanglement. Gale was tired and sleepy. Her eyes were barely open, but just before drifting off to sleep, she managed to say, "I have to go to work tomorrow, on time... no more skipping.""Okay."With Shawn's response, she immediately fell into a deep sleep.She left everything else to him… She was going to fall apart! She didn't know what was going on with Shawn, these past two nights have been endless. Before, he might ask for too much, but he would care about her physica

The trip back home was serene and filled with warmth for Gale. Shawn in contrast, felt tumultuous. By the time they arrived home, the two little ones were already fast asleep in the back seat, slumped over in different directions."Just a moment ago they were chattering non-stop, now they're all curled up asleep," Gale chuckled. "No matter how clever they are, they're still just kids."They were her little darlings. She opened the back door and gently lifted Nicole out. For some reason, when she lifted Nicole, she felt a bit unsteady and swayed."Careful," Shawn noticed and reached out, pulling her and their daughter into his embrace.Gale leaned securely against him. "With you here, how could I fall?""No worries, maybe Nicole's just gotten heavier as she's grown. I'm having trouble carrying her now," Gale said."Let me."She tilted her chin. "You take Joshua. I can manage for this short walk, really.""I can handle both," Shawn replied."Yeah, yeah, I know you're strong."S

"Alright, alright," Joshua shrugged and said, "Old man, you do your thing. Actually, I hope you could be a bit busier.""You want me to be busier?""Yeah, just a bit busier than now. Not too much, just a moderate increase," Joshua gestured, "You're always so leisurely, it makes me uneasy, Shawn!"Shawn asked, "What makes you uneasy?""Your business. I'll have to inherit it in the future! If you continue being so idle and not managing the company well, when I take over, I'll be swamped! Shawn, can't you think about your son?"So that was Joshua's concern. He feared Shawn wouldn’t manage the company well and it would burden him in the future.Gale sighed repeatedly, "How did I end up with such... "She couldn't find the right words.Smart?Mischievous?Shawn replied calmly, "Joshua, do you now realize you're my son? I should consider you? Then let me ask you, what do you want to call me?""Daddy."Joshua smoothly said.Both Shawn and Gale were somewhat surprised.He actuall

"Joshua!" Gale turned around to look at him. "What's been going on in that little head of yours day after day?"Joshua replied seriously, "I'm thinking about you, Mommy. Shawn leaves work on time every day, never stays late. Suddenly he's busy until midnight. Don't you think that's a bit strange?"As he said this, Gale felt something wasn't quite right. But she trusted Shawn enough. The company was big, with lots of business, so the occasional unexpected situation was normal. Even if she pushed the thought further, what would Shawn do? Would he be seeing other women? Gale wasn't concerned at all because Shawn wouldn't give any woman a chance! He loved only her and she was confident that she held the only place in his heart."Alright, I think you've been watching too many dramas lately," Gale said. "Joshua, from now on, you need to cut down on your TV drama time!""No! I refuse!""Joshua, your protest is futile!"Joshua was getting frustrated; he really wanted to watch TV.After

Joshua reluctantly said goodbye to Ivy, "Bye-bye, Ivy. I'll come over again when I have time. You can come to my house too! Love you! Mwah mwah!"He kept blowing kisses."Shawn," Gale looked at him, "Does your son know no shame?""I'm starting to suspect he might have a genetic mutation."Both Shawn and Gale were quite reserved by nature, especially in expressing their feelings. They loved subtly and rarely voiced it openly. But Joshua was different. He worked his charm on everyone from the old Lucas down to babies. He could make anyone happy if he wanted to!The car moved along the road.Gale asked, "What do you think about Ivy's condition today?""What do I think?""Yes.""I didn’t observe closely," Shawn replied. "Why?"Gale couldn't help but laugh, "I allow you to look and give your opinion. It's fine. You don’t have to create your distance so strictly.""She's better than last time," Shawn said. "Beyond that, I don’t know."Even if he knew, he couldn't say.Gale reac

Ivy stared at Gale, her eyes bright and clear.“Gale, if I hold the truth in my hands, would you want me to reveal it?”Gale nodded firmly. “Yes!”“Do you want to know the whole truth?”“I do!”Ivy blinked, then suddenly smiled. “Okay, okay, Gale, I know what to do now.”“Can you tell me now?”“Not yet.”“Why?” Gale asked. “Have you been threatened?”She grew tense all of a sudden.Ivy shook her head. “No. It’s just too complicated to explain in a few words. But with your support, I suddenly feel stronger and know what I need to do!”Even if President Wood tried to stop her, she would expose it. She would vent her anger, punish Paul, tear off Aurum’s hypocritical mask, let Gale know Aurum's ugliness... Ivy decided to act on her own. She resolved silently.Smells of food wafted from the kitchen.“Dinner’s ready,” Ivy smiled. “Joshua, Nicole, did you wash your hands?”They replied, “We’re going now!”“I’ll take you.”“No,” Gale stopped her. “They’re big enough to wash the
