Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 462

“If this delicate balance were to break, the ones who would suffer losses wouldn’t only be the Dragon Regiment but also the Shelby Clan. Hence, I definitely wanted to sniff out who was the mastermind behind this. Unfortunately, my investigations haven’t borne much fruit.”

Gideon frowned at his findings.

“So, even you guys didn’t manage to find anything?”

Being called out, an expression of gloom took over Gale’s face.

“Yes, in this world, there’s always going to be someone who is better than you out there. Over the years, I’ve come to think that though the Bauhinia Clan wasn’t omniscient over the affairs in this land, it definitely came quite close… But who would’ve thought…”

He sighed as he stopped speaking. The group also did not suspect him.

As the group looked at each other, Gideon Leith finally broke the silence. “Alright, then, I’ll just take your word for it. If there are any updates to the situation, please inform us about it.”

Gale Shelby just nodded.

Suddenly, he looked over at Nell and put on a smile.

“Now that we’re done talking about your issues, do you guys mind taking a bit of time to listen to mine?”

Everyone was utterly stunned except for Nell, who was the only one who frowned at the suggestion.

She stood up and spat coldly. “We have nothing to talk about here.”

“I know that you’re angry, not only because of the issue with your mother but also because of my lapse in judgment this time which caused Gideon harm.

“However, from the bottom of my heart, I didn’t mean for any of those to happen. More importantly, a partial reason for all of this was because we didn’t understand each other before, which caused layers upon layers of misunderstandings.

“Now that we have this opportunity to meet face to face, we might as well try to understand each other and treat each other sincerely. Wouldn’t that be better than staying as bitter enemies?”

Nell looked him in the eye, still quite angry at him, but she could not deny that he had a point.

No matter what their mutual feelings toward each other were, it was still important to try and understand each other from the other person’s perspective.

She turned back to take a look at Gideon Leith. Seeing Gideon giving her a small nod, she finally sat back down.

Seeing this situation, Gale’s face showed a gentle smile, motioning for Scarface to leave.

Then, he had his people brew some good quality tea for his guests. Finally, he turned over to Nell and said softly, “You looked a lot like your father.”

Nell lightly harrumphed, not looking at him at all. She still had a bad opinion of him.

Gale did not mind as he laughed plainly. “Speaking of which, you still don’t know your father’s name yet, right? His name is Guile Shelby, my brother. Back in the day, he was this hotblooded young lad brimming with talent and oozing charm wherever he went. There were countless young ladies from wealthy families crushing on him back then.”

Although Nell still had her own opinions about Gale, he was talking about her biological father. Any ordinary person would have some fascination given the topic.
