Chapter 785
Shawn gently put his hand on her back.
Nicole said, “Daddy, you can’t do that. Even I can shower by myself. You’re already so old. How could you make Mommy do that?”
“Okay, I’ll shower by myself.”
“Shawn!” Gale could no longer stand it. “Can you just eat properly? Stop talking while you’re eating!”
“Fine.”
Gale started to put food on his plate.
He did not reject it. He would eat all of it no matter how much she gave him.
She would stuff him to death!
Gale warned, “You’re not allowed to take cold showers. If you get sick and the surgery is delayed. then I won’t let you off. From tomorrow onwards, you’re not allowed to drink this soup!”
Men were normally already so hotblooded. He often felt like a furnace when she slept with him at night.
If he really did start getting nosebleeds…
If he really could not hold back…
Shawn ate slowly. “Alright, I’ll listen to you. You’re the master of this house.”
Gale felt like punching something.
However, she could not say anything and was forced to hold it in.
Shawn put his hand on her cheek gently.
Nicole said happily, “It looks like Daddy found a good way to make Mommy happy. You don’t event
need to kiss her!”
Shawn answered, “No, I prefer using a kiss to handle it.”
Gale was speechless.
Her daughter really changed!
With the surgery looming, the doctors were visiting much more frequently. Some days, Nicole would spend the whole day getting checkups, and Gale was forced to stay outside and wait.
Possibly because of those herbs, Nicole’s complexion looked much better. Nicole’s face was pink. and vibrant.
Gale thanked Aurum and took the time to call Zoe to ask about Joshua.
However, Joshua kept refusing to go on video calls with her for some reason.
Gale thought that he was just unhappy about things. She planned on giving her a proper apology
after everything was done.
She had neglected her son.
Gale had no idea that Joshua was still with Aurum and did not want to video call because he was afraid she would notice!
It was Saturday night, and Nicole’s surgery was the next day.
Gale felt incredibly unsettled. She had no appetite, and could not sleep properly. She was incredibly tired and fatigued.
She stood on the balcony, enjoying the night breeze.
Shawn walked over. “You aren’t sleeping yet? What’s on your mind?”
At that moment, Gale did not mind sharing her worries with him.
After all, he was Nicole’s father too.
Gale said, “I’m just thinking about the surgery tomorrow. I feel so worried. I’m worried that…”
Shawn put his hand on her shoulder gently, pulling her to him. “I won’t.”
Normally, she would have pulled his hand away, but she did not have that intention that night.
She was just a woman.
She needed someone to rely on. She needed someone to shield her from the harsh reality of the world
Gale said, “Nicole’s not been very healthy since she was young. She catches colds and flu so often. She regularly needs to go to the doctor. Slowly, the frequency of her getting sick increased, and she took longer and longer to recover.”
“Galey, you’ve had it hard raising her alone.”
