Chapter 330
“He must have been quite harsh with his words. Did you feel wronged?”
Gale’s nose started to twitch.
Shawn was a man that she hated to the bone when he was cruel.
Yet, when he was nice, he was so gentle and attentive.
A man’s warmth was like a knife. It was incredibly deadly, and once struck, it was impossible to pull it out.
It was true when Lucas had slapped her, she felt wronged. When he pointed at her and scolded her, she felt wronged as well.
Yet, during that time, she did not think too much about it. The moment Shawn asked, her feelings seemed to surface.
“Tell me. Let me handle it,” Shawn said slowly.
Gale did not make a sound.
“Do you think that I can’t solve it?”
Gale nodded and said, “Yes. My conflict with the Wood family is impossible to solve just like that.”
Shawn’s expression slowly sank.
He knew what she meant.
The grudges between the Warm family and the Wood family were very obvious.
Gale lowered her head. “He said that I was a star of misfortune, that I was a scourge on your family. My father killed your father, I lost the Wood family’s child, and I was about to kill you as well. He said I should keep far away from you so nothing will happen to you.”
Shawn had guessed that Lucas had said something like that, but hearing it from her mouth made his heart hurt.
“Gale, if it weren’t for the grudges of the last generation, we would have been able to be a very normal couple…”
Gale answered, “Without those grudges, we would never
have known each other.”
He was the prince of Sea City, with the world in his hands.
What about her?
She was just a girl from a middle–class family in Sea City.
She had a fiance, and she was accomplished academically.
She had a bright future.
The two of them were on separate paths and would never have met each other.
