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..."
As Shawn was about to speak, he suddenly heard Lucas yell while clutching his heart.
"Grandpa?"
Lucas looked unable to stand and took several steps back, clutching his heart more forcefully. "I'm afraid it's... no, I can't do it..."
Shawn and Gale looked at each other.
"I'm mad at you... so angry! Alas! Sooner or later, my life will be in your hands..." Lucas said.
Lucas had a painful expression on his face.
Shawn stood where he was, not knowing... what he should do.
It was obvious that Lucas was acting.
His acting was too bad.
He could see through it at a glance!
However, Shawn could not just ignore it, could he?
