He clenched his fist and put it in front of his mouth as he coughed. His back slouched slightly.Gale unconsciously reached out, wanting to pat his back.Then, she wondered why she would do that."Stop smoking so much. Smoking is bad for your body," she said.She had seen cigarettes between Shawn's fingers so many times. The moment he saw her, he would extinguish it.Otherwise, he would hide and take a smoke, but she would still smell the faint scent of tobacco on him.Shawn's smoking habits were not that bad four years ago. Was he just surrounded by smoking and alcohol for four years?Shawn struggled to control his coughing. "Galey, you said it would affect me getting remarried?""Yes.""Who would I marry?"Gale paused for a few seconds before she answered, "You still have a long life ahead of you, you might meet…"Before she could finish, Shawn said, "I won't."There was a short silence in the car.After a moment, Shawn finally said again, "If you insist on getting a d
That was all Shawn could say.He hoped that she would understand and hoped that she would not at the same time.He knew that he would definitely be misunderstood when the time came.He knew how horrible it would all feel, but he would be able to bear it for Nicole.Gale asked gently, "Shawn, will you really change?""Galey, everyone changes.""That's true…"Shawn gently patted her on the head. "But, I'll only change by loving you even more. For you, I'll change for the better. Even if you find that I'm a completely different person, so much that you can't even tell it's me, please believe that I have my reason, that it's all for you."At that point, no matter how slow Gale was, there was no way she would not be able to tell something was off.Shawn seemed to be telling her something.He was being very vague about things as if he did not really want her to understand.Why was it all so conflicting?Before Gale could understand it, Shawn let her go.He did not hesitate to tu
At that topic, Gale started to get interested.She pulled at Peach and said, "Has Summer not dated at all in four years?"Peach said, "No, Gale, you don't know how much has changed after Mr. Wood personally took charge of the jewelry department. We work overtime every day. Who would have the time to go on dates?""What about Mr. Winter?""Mr. Winter…" Peach blinked and smiled after that. "Gale, it looks like you can see how close the two of them are too."Gale nodded. "Of course! I even tried to matchmake them before!""Me too! It's just that two of them are just too stubborn and love to quarrel too much. Every time they're being truthful, they end up saying that they're just joking. Summer feels like Joe's a playboy who goes after any girl. She doesn't feel secure, so she pushes her feelings back."Gale continued, "Meanwhile, Joe thinks that Summer just sees him as a friend, and that she doesn't like him that way at all. So, he's not willing to go after her, worried that he wil
"You might not be a bad person, but you're definitely a playboy.""Summer, I've never played around with any woman before.""Please, who would believe you?"Gale immediately said, "It's true. Mr. Winter is a pure and innocent man. He's never played around with relationships. I can assure you!"Summer was stunned. "You?""That's right. Shawn said that Joe only had his first relationship in university. Once the girl went overseas, his relationship ended."Summer was suddenly speechless.Was Gale not supposed to be on her side?!Why was Gale speaking up for Joe?!Joe had an awkward look on his face. "Shawn and his big mouth. Why did he expose my past?! He's so whipped!"Summer and he exchanged a look before they left."See, even when they're angry, they have so much chemistry with each other. They look like they're married," Gale said.Peach nodded hurriedly. "That's true!""Alright, focus on work now." Gale sat back in her seat. "I only got a bit of the draft last night done
"These aren't just herbs."After saying that, the old lady left. She left in a hurry, and she quickly disappeared.Winnie carefully covered it and put it in her arms. She looked around before she quickly left.She was wondering the whole time. Those were clearly herbs, so why did the old lady say otherwise?Could it be something else made into that shape?Winnie could not understand, but she was very excited at that moment. Very quickly, Shawn would be completely obsessed with her!It will be spring for her very quickly!Winnie had just got back and put down her things when she heard some footsteps coming from outside."It's Daddy!" Winnie immediately looked up when she heard it. "Mommy, daddy is here!""Really?" Winnie could not really believe it.Was it that much of a coincidence?She was just thinking of finding an excuse to have Shawn come to the hospital for a meal so she could have Shawn eat those things…In the end, he came on his own volition!The door was opened,
"Well...you have been taking care of her these days. Thank you for your hard work."Winnie shook her head. "It's not hard. As long as Nicole can be discharged from the hospital as soon as possible and live life normally as soon as possible, I will be satisfied!"As she spoke, she tried to approach Shawn slowly and then leaned her head on his shoulder. Winnie's heart was pounding.She did not know if Shawn would push her away... She just took a gamble!What made her so excited was that not only did Shawn not push her away, but he also put his arms around her shoulders, patted her lightly, and then withdrew his hand.Although it was only a few seconds, it boosted Winnie's confidence greatly!When Shawn saw her before, his eyes were full of disgust. He even choked her, slapped her face, and kicked her... He did not show any mercy, and he did not treat her as a human being at all, let alone a woman!However, unexpectedly, Shawn actually hugged her!Winnie has already started to da
He pursed his lips slightly. "Nicole, Daddy has never changed."What changed was Nicole herself.However, Nicole would not understand."Now Daddy is back again. When you looked at Mommy before, there were lights in your eyes. Now, these lights are slowly shining again," Nicole said with a serious look. Shawn raised his eyebrows deeply.That being said… His acting was pretty good.At least it was affirmed by Nicole.What light did he have for Winnie? The truth was he could not wait to kill her directly!"When I see Mommy, there is always light. There has always been light, and it will never disappear," Shawn emphasized deeply."Well! I believe in Daddy! Without that vixen, Daddy and Mommy will always love each other!"Shawn sighed deeply, but he could not tell Nicole too much.She would not understand.Right now, she only saw Winnie as a 'real mommy'."And Daddy, Mommy has been telling me these days that she wants to have a younger sibling."Shawn's deep eyes darkened. "R
Why did he look so serious all of a sudden?Was it because...she did not reciprocate Daddy's love?"Nicole also likes Daddy the most..." Nicole said immediately, and after a pause, she added, "I also like Mommy the most!"Seeing that Shawn was still frowning, she said cautiously, "I like Daddy as much as I like Mommy. There is no ranking. You are both number one."Shawn was deeply concerned about the problem.If Nicole preferred Gale, he would have no objection!He would not deliberately ask such boring questions as whether she loves her father more or her mother more!What he was worried about was that such an innocent and lovely Nicole would be hurt by love when she grew up!"Nicole, girls want to get married when they grow up, and they won't stay with Daddy and Mommy. But what Daddy wants to tell you is to protect yourself in a relationship."Nicole did not understand.Shawn continued, "No matter what happens, you have your parents to support you. You don't need to suffer
