"What?! I represent so many luxury brands. I'm the most suitable person to represent the Wood Group. Why would you deny me like that?""An endorsed celebrity doesn't just represent the product, but the company's image and core values. I'm sorry, but we won't consider working with someone of your character, Ms. Nightingale," Gale said.Winnie pointed at Gale but could not find the words to say.She had been so intent on getting closer to Shawn. She would first get endorsed by the Wood Group. After that, she would develop a personal relationship with Mr. Wood. She might even be able to use that opportunity to become Mr. Wood's secret lover…Yet, the moment Gale appeared, it all went up in smoke!"Put your hand away. Winnie, she's not someone you can point at," Shawn said calmly.His sharp gaze swept across here, and Winnie shuddered. She immediately pulled her hand back. Shawn was way too imposing. Winnie tried to act cute. "Mr. Wood, I think we…we can still try working togethe

Facing the handsome Aurum, Winnie regained her smile. "Hello Mr. Lefting, I'm so jealous of Natalie. You're such a good fiance. She always sings you praises."She became friends with Natalie precisely because she wanted to climb the social ladder and get to know even more of the rich elite.Even though she made a lot as an actress, she still needed to depend on her youthful looks. If she ever suffered a drop in her popularity, her income would suffer too.So, Winnie was intent on marrying someone rich so she could enjoy the lifestyle of a rich wife.Aurum said politely, "Ms. Nightingale, you're so pretty. You'll be able to get an ideal love life too.""Aurum, do you know any single men around you? Introduce one of them to Winnie. She's still single," Natalie said.Winnie's eyes lit up.She had been waiting for Natalie to say that!She tried really hard to form a good relationship with Natalie, and she was finally seeing the fruits of her labor.Natalie was no idiot either. She

Shawn said plainly, "What if I buy Heart of the Sea and give it to you?"Gale suddenly looked at him.Buy it?Was he being serious?"Only you would be a match for it, my princess," Shawn said.A crown was naturally suited to a princess.She was his princess.Gale composed herself and answered, "No need, I wouldn't dare. There are some things that are better off just being looked at.""But I want you to have it.""There are too many people who want Heart of the Sea. If it goes on auction, the fight will be very intense," Gale answered.Shawn raised his head, and his eyes were full of confidence and pride. "I've never let anything I want evade my grasp."Even though everyone here was rich and wealthy, no one was able to stand up to the Wood Family's wealth!"I don't want it. Shawn, stop wasting your money and effort. Even if you buy ten of them, things are impossible between us!" Gale refused."When a woman says no, she means yes.""You!" Gale bit her lips.In truth, she o

She would die to keep Aurum!"Natalie, Gale isn't like that. There are a lot of things you don't know. Don't misunderstand her," Aurum explained."Fine, I'll stop talking about her."She answered Aurum that, but Natalie actually hated Gale even more.Even after Aurum saw Gale and Mr. Wood being so intimate, he still defended Gale!She was really surprised.At that moment, the Heart of the Sea was officially unveiled."Dear esteemed guests, what you will see next is the finale of this year's jewelry fair, and it's the treasure of the exhibition. It's a crown from royalty. It's been through centuries of trials and hardships, yet still shines incomparably. It's the Heart of the Sea!" the host said passionately.Right after he said that, the red cloth was pulled away by four employees!On the rectangular stand, the priceless crown stood there under the light, attracting everyone's attention.No matter how they looked at it, the crown was dazzling.It was elegant and classy. The

How many of the wealthy would be so free to spend billions on a crown that did not have any practical usage?Shawn's expression remained serious. No one could tell what he was thinking."It's so expensive. I feel like no one is going to bid on it," Gale said.Shawn answered, "Let's wait and see."The auctioneer said, "The auction will officially begin. Bids will start at one and a half billion dollars. Will anyone be bidding?"There was complete silence.At that moment, Aurum suddenly said, "I."Everyone looked toward him.Natalie earned looks of envy and jealousy from every woman there standing next to Aurum!If Aurum bought it, it would definitely be for his fiance!It was 1.5 billion! He was spending a fortune just to make his woman smile. Seeing that, Winnie immediately said, "Wow, Natalie, you're so lucky! Mr. Lefting is actually buying the Heart of the Sea for you!"Natalie let out a shy smile as she looked at Gale with a pleased expression.She was the daughter of

"Aurum wants to buy it for his fiance. It's perfect. Don't try to mess things up!""Mess things up?" Shawn raised an eyebrow. "He's buying it for his fiance, and I'm buying it for my wife. There's no conflict."After that, he tried to raise the bidding board again.Gale tried her best to stop him.The two of them looked like they just had their hands by the side, but they were actually struggling against each other."Stop it. I don't want this. Just give it to Aurum and Natalie!" Gale said.She did not want the attention.If Shawn really ended up buying the Heart of the Sea, Natalie would end up holding a grudge against her!She did not want to be enemies with Natalie. Aurum would suffer being between the two of them!"Whether you want it or not is your decision. Whether I'm buying it or not is mine," Shawn said.Was he really not going to buy it because she said no?Impossible.Joe had already told Shawn that, no matter what Gale said, Shawn should not believe her until th

That unassuming, gentle-looking woman was actually the Mrs. Wood of legend!She had only been heard of before and never seen. Yet, she had appeared that day!She kept such a low profile!"When we arrived today, I introduced my wife to the media outside. Now, in front of all you esteemed guests, I'll introduce her again. Gale is my wife. She's the woman I'll spend my life with!" Shawn said.Both Natalie and Winnie's expressions soured immensely. They even started to pale.Gale was actually Shawn's wife!That woman who had the envy of every single woman in Sea City was Gale!Winnie finally understood why Shawn agreed when Gale said they would not work with her!"So, I want to buy the Heart of the Sea for my wife. Is there a problem with that, Mr. Lefting?" Shawn replied with a smirk.Gale looked down at her feet.She was the target of all the attention at that moment, and she did not want to look up to meet anyone's gaze.They had been married for so long, but Shawn chose the

He could give it to her, but he refused to. Instead, he wanted to spend so much on jewelry to prove his love."Freedom… I wouldn't be able to get you back no matter how much money I spend. So, I can't give it to you, Galey," Shawn answered."You just don't want to."He pursed his lips and said, "I can give you anything else."Gale pursed her lips and smiled bitterly.The auctioneer reacted and quickly tried to salvage the situation. "Mrs. Wood must think it's too expensive. She must be thinking about Mr. Wood's bank account. The auction continues. Mr. Wood bid a million and six hundred. Are there any higher bids?"Up till then, only two people had bid on it.It did not seem like Aurum was going to bid anymore. Natalie almost shattered her teeth from grinding her jaws too hard.All of the attention that day had fallen on Gale! She had not gotten any at all!Even a well-known actress like Winnie had been ignored!They could not believe that Gale even dared to pretend that she

"... Alright. I'll concede to Mr. Wood and… Mrs. Wood," Aurum answered.Aurum knew how to evaluate the situation.He would have to spend close to three billion dollars, and he would even make an enemy out of Shawn. No matter what, it was not worth it.He would lose too much!The auctioneer said, "Alright! Mr. Wood has put in a 2.8 billion dollar bid! Is anyone going to bid anything higher? Then, I'll formally announce that a deal has been made for the Heart of the Sea! Mr. Wood has won the bid!"That was met with a lot of applause that did not stop.However, Gale did not feel happy at all.When she needed money, Shawn acted so stingy and petty, not giving it to her. She had been forced to pick up trash and recyclables.To him, that had just been a completely insignificant amount of money. It would have gotten her mother the special medication, but he refused. It ended up making her mother worse. Yet, at that moment, he spent so much just to get her an extravagant crown. Yes

Throwing it like that, letting it fall like that…would definitely crack it!Almost instinctively, Gale lunged forward when the crown was falling quickly. She leaned forward and grabbed the crown tightly with her hands.Thankfully, she was very lucky.When the crown was only half a meter away from falling on the ground, Gale managed to grab it!She had used so much force that her veins could clearly be seen on the back of her hand.Furthermore, the crown was made of gold. As she clutched it, the sharp side pierced her palm.It hurt a little. However, Gale did not care about the pain at that moment.She was looking at the crown in her hand. Her heart finally started to stop beating so quickly.Thankfully, she managed to grab it!She managed to save a treasure of the jewelry world!"Shawn!" Gale looked up, her shock still on her face. "What are you doing?! Why did you let go?!"She was terrified, and everyone else was shocked as well. Only Shawn remained impassive. "You did
