Chapter 1458
Shawn pursed his lips, his face looking very displeased. Throughout the drive, he seemed rather moody and was not very talkative.Upon reaching the kindergarten, Nicole waved and said, "Goodbye, Daddy and Mommy."She got out of the car and headed toward her classroom but seemed to suddenly forget something. She ran back quickly.Gale lowered the car window and said, "Is there something else, Nicole?""Forget to tell you, Mommy, I also want to go see my grandma. I've never met her, and she doesn't know me. Why haven't you arranged for me to meet Grandma?" Nicole said, looking up.Gale smiled. "I didn't think about it. I'm sorry, Nicole. We'll go see Grandma this weekend, okay?"Nicole nodded, content. "Okay, bye!"She turned around and trotted back to her classroom.Watching Nicole's retreating figure, Gale quickly began planning the meeting in her mind. She did not want to take only Nicole to meet Mary. Joshua should come along too. After some thought, Gale came up with a good

Shawn lowered his head and kissed her red lips.Gale was forced to tilt her head back and accept his kiss. She did not resist. She thought, 'Get it over with quickly!'It was the hospital entrance; people were coming and going, and anyone walking by the car could see what was happening inside!After about twenty seconds, Gale gently patted Shawn's shoulder, signaling that it was taking too long. However, he did not let her go. What should she do?"Shawn... Mmm..."As she spoke, he got even more passionate. Gale tightly closed her eyes, her heart pounding rapidly. She wished this would end soon. She had been so cooperative, and yet he did not seem satisfied!Just then, there was a knock on the car window. Knock, knock, knock.A voice from outside said, "Why are you parking your car here? There's a line behind you. Can you move it? This is a passageway, not a parking spot!"Gale closed her eyes even more tightly. Oh no, how embarrassing! Someone was getting impatient!Knock, k

She was both angry and amused. If she had known that she needed to provide 'compensation', she would have preferred to take a taxi. Before getting out of the car, Shawn reminded her, "If you need anything, call me. Don't handle everything on your own.""I know," she replied."Don't let yourself be wronged either. I can't bear to see you wronged. They don't have the right to make you feel that way," Shawn said.Gale nodded. She felt full of strength. A good spouse can indeed alleviate most of life's hardships.When she arrived at the door of the ward, Gale heard Heather yelling from inside, "Why are you so useless? You couldn't even save our daughter, and now you're lying here, making me take care of you!""If it weren't for Mr. Lefting's kindness, we would be sleeping on the streets! Do you know how expensive these medicines are? They're all imported!""Oh, Matthew, what kind of bad luck did I have in my previous life? I've agreed to live in the shadows as an insignificant person

Heather was annoyed at the thought of it! She had never done this kind of work before! When she was young, she was fair-skinned, beautiful, and had long legs, which Matthew lusted after. He swiped his card for her and bought her everything she wanted. She lived alone in a high-end apartment by the river with a housekeeper and a maid, living a carefree life. Now, she finally experienced what hardship meant."It's hard for you. Heather, it's my fault. Now, you're the only one by my side... You may complain a lot, but you haven't left me, and I'm already content," Matthew said.Heather remained silent. She was impatient, thinking that Matthew had long been displeased with her, but she never expected him to have such thoughts.Gale chuckled. "How do you know she'll stay with you and not leave? Perhaps Heather has been scheming to get one last big score from you and then run away!""Leaving would be the right thing, it would be in line with human nature. She and I were originally immora

"Gale, I have only these two requests. I don't expect anything more. This shouldn't be difficult for you, right? Your hatred for me should gradually disappear with my death..." Gale looked at him."Why do you have to be so pessimistic when your surgery isn't that dangerous?" she asked."Because life is full of surprises, and no one knows what will happen in the next second. I need to take care of my affairs properly to avoid regrets and die without any worries," Matthew replied. "If you insist on thinking that way, there's nothing I can do."Matthew sighed. "Gale, I feel that I'm better off dead. I'm of no use anymore, only being despised by all of you. I would rather the surgery not go smoothly. That way, I can leave, resolve the grudge between you and your mother, and end everything here."If he really died, Gale would definitely fulfill the two tasks he had mentioned. If he survived, that would be more complicated, especially when it came to letting Heather go.Gale replied

"Then I'll leave on my own. Let her be."Gale smiled as she looked at Heather and said, "Look at Matthew, once a powerful man, now fallen from grace, but he still thinks of you at every turn. If he dies, he'll make sure to leave you a sum of money to guarantee your retirement. If he lives, he'll take you wherever he goes. He truly loves you!"Although Matthew had seen through Heather's true nature and found out that she only cared about his power and wealth, he still took care of her in various ways. If this isn't true love, then what is it? If Matthew was not her father, if he had not betrayed his marriage, hurting Mary in the process, Gale might even have respected him!How rare it was! In this modern society, who would think so much for another person? Heather also did not expect Matthew to be so considerate of her. She had always treated Matthew as her cash cow and her protector. So, when she was young, she used all kinds of means to capture his heart, submissively stayed with
Chapter 1464
Matthew, who has been enjoying a luxurious life for so many years, was suddenly brought back to reality.Matthew sighed. "I also want to see her, and I want to apologize to her. After all, we have been married for so many years. I let her down. I haven't been a good husband.""Just be a good lover to your new woman. My mom doesn't need your apology. She's better off without you!""Yes, I hope she gets better. Actually, I don't have the courage to see her. She probably doesn't want to see me either. But..."Matthew hesitated for a few seconds, but Gale had already walked out of the hospital room."Gale! Gale! I feel like your mom wants to see Natalie! She raised her as her own daughter single-handedly. Can she bear never seeing her again in this lifetime?" he shouted loudly.Gale pretended not to hear, continuing to walk forward.Matthew kept shouting from behind.She walked faster and faster until she could not hear him.Would Mary want to see Natalie?Maybe she did. She had

Matthew looked at her and suddenly smiled."Heather, for as long as we've been with each other, we have always understood each other. Even though we're not exactly good people, we know each other better than anyone else."Matthew understood Heather's calculating nature, and Heather also understood Matthew's male chauvinistic nature.People like Mary, who come from privileged backgrounds, have never worried about money and always could uphold their principles. They did not understand the struggles of people like them who have climbed the social ladder from the bottom up and who would do anything for a little profit.As long as they could have a better life, they would do whatever it takes!Heather walked to the dispensary. Before she left, she said, "Hang in there, Matthew. We've been together for so many years, and I still want to stay by your side. I might not be able to find someone new who can be as good to me as you. Besides, I'm not getting any younger.""Alright, I'll wait
