Chapter 751
“Shawn, I made things very clear in front of your grandfather just now.”
“I’ve never really given you any gifts. This is my…”
Gale interrupted him, “Shawn, everything you give is just too valuable. I wouldn’t dare to accept them.”
That crown, the Heart of the Deep Sea, felt like it burnt her to touch it back then.
Yet, he wanted her to accept those shares.
Gale sighed. “I’ve never wanted these things. Forget it.”

Nicole looked at her father, then looked at Gale.
She pulled at Gale’s hand. “My tummy is hungry. Mommy, I want food.”
Gale composed herself. “Alright, what do you want to eat? I’ll go cook for you.”
“I’ll eat anything you want!” Nicole did not forget to add. “Make sure to make some for Daddy.”
“You…”
