Chapter 312
A weakness!That would make things easier!"So you want money? That's easy. As long as you let me go, Shawn would instantly transfer you money. You can get any amount you want! After that, you can take that money and go overseas!" Gale said.Susan was stunned.Seeing that Susan was moved, Gale continued saying, "Death is the worst possible choice. Don't be impulsive. I can guarantee you that everything I said earlier can be done!"At that moment, an intense light suddenly shot in from outside.It was clear and incredibly bright. It shone so brightly that both Susan and Gale could not open their eyes.Gale held her hands in front of her eyes.Susan was incredibly quick to grab Gale's shoulders, hiding behind her. After that, she pulled out a knife and held it against Gale's neck. Susan shouted, "Who is it? Don't come closer! Stay there! Don't move! Don't come closer!" The light still shone through.Susan immediately pressed the knife against Gale's neck. "Turn off the light

"Do you think I'd believe that? I know you too well. You always do things incredibly thoroughly. You're a perfectionist… Furthermore, Gale's your beloved. You'd be worried about anything happening to her, so you would plan it out even more!"Shawn looked at her. "Gale's in your hands right now, so I wouldn't dare to act recklessly. I came alone because I wanted you to be more at ease. I came here to talk.""There's nothing to talk about!"Shawn stared right at her and said, "I can give you anything you want. As long as it's something I can give!""Really? You're willing to give me anything?""Yes!"Susan answered, "Gale told me the same thing just now. The two of you really do understand each other well!"Gale looked at Shawn's face.He looked even colder than usual, but looking closer, she could see the panic on his face.He was scared.He was scared Gale would be hurt. He was scared Gale would leave him forever.It was something he could not accept.So, he was willing to

Even though begging someone was not normally that impressive, it was practically impossible to see from Shawn.Yet, special circumstances called for special measures!He did not care about anything else!"Alright. I'll kneel down and beg you. Stop hurting her…" Shawn answered.He could not take another cut on Gale's face.At that moment, Shawn was far more humble than he had ever been!In order to save Gale, he did not care about anything else. He tossed his honor and his dignity aside.None of that was as important as Gale.Nothing was too valuable when it came to Gale's safety!"No, no. Shawn, how could you kneel to her?" Gale mumbled.He was Shawn Wood.The most powerful man in Sea City.Yet, because of her, he was kneeling down and begging…"Haha, he can choose not to. I could just add another cut to your face!" Susan said.Gale looked at Shawn and constantly shook her head. "Don't do it. Even if you do it, she won't let me go… You're so smart. How could you not know

Right after that was said, there was silence.Gale widened her eyes suddenly as she looked right at Shawn, who was on the ground.Even though he was kneeling, his back was still straight. His knees were full of dirt.The ground was full of gravel and mud. It should be quite painful.Susan repeated, "Trade you for her? Shawn, you're willing to die with me so Gale can live?""Yes.""You're willing to die?"Shawn answered, "I just need to ensure Gale is alive."Then, it would be fine if he died.She could live in his place.Susan's jealousy peaked. "Do you love her so much that you'd die for her?!"Tears filled Gale's eyes.She constantly shook her head. "Shawn, you don't have to do that for me…""Galey, I wish you a long and healthy life," he said.So, the most touching words of romance were not 'I love you' or 'marry me'. Instead, it's wishing the other one to continue living in this world.A long and healthy life.Even if he had to die.Tears fell across the wound on h

Shawn knew very well that he owed her far too much.It would not be the worst if he could pay her back with his life. At least Gale would remember him for her whole life. He would always have a place in her heart.Susan said, "Enough! Stop wasting time! Shawn, you take Gale's place, but you'll have to cripple yourself first!"Cripple?!Gale's eyes widened."Cripple one of your hands or one of your legs. I'd be able to control you that way. Otherwise, wouldn't you just subdue me in one blow the moment you're near me?" Susan said.Shawn nodded without any hesitation. "Okay.""No, don't do it. You can't do it. Shawn, you can't! You absolutely can't!" Gale shouted, heartbroken.Not only would she have to see him kneeling in front of her, but she would also have to see him cripple himself as well.After that, she would need to witness him falling into Susan's hands while she remained completely safe."Susan, just kill me. Kill me now! Stop torturing him, stop torturing me… Just ki

She wondered if Shawn had felt the same when Shawn witnessed Susan cutting her face.Shawn asked again, "Is this fine? I'm badly injured. I can't fight back. I'll slowly pass out from the blood loss. You can absolutely subdue me. Susan, we should start the exchange."He impatiently walked forward.Susan was still stunned. "Exchange… Wait."Shawn stopped. "I had already done what you asked. What are you still worried about?"At the same time, voices could be heard through the miniature earpiece in his ear."Mr. Wood, the snipers are in position.""The ambush is in position.""We can rush in at any moment."All of those people were waiting for Shawn's orders.They would charge in guns blazing with an order. They would be able to subdue Susan in just a few seconds.Yet, Shawn did not dare to risk it.Gale was in Susan's hands. Using a sniper was far too dangerous. If there were any mistake, it would be irreversible!So, Shawn did not say anything. He did not give a single r

A torrent of blood shot out!Both his and Susan's faces were stained with blood!No one would have expected that Shawn would pull such a move!Susan had forgotten all about the knife that was still on Shawn's arm as well. He had done it on purpose! It meant he had a weapon!However, how dangerous and painful must it have been for him to pull it out?!It was not something an ordinary person would have been able to stand!Right after that, Shawn flicked his hand, and the knife traveled in an arc, landing squarely on Susan's heart.He used the last of his strength to stab Susan's heart!After doing that, Shawn fell on his knees with a thud right in front of Susan. His head was lowered, and he was not moving at all.He had spent all of his strength.Susan was stunned.She looked at the knife in her heart, and her eyes were wide.Everything had happened in just a few seconds. She had no time to react at all!"S…Shawn, you…" She clutched the knife in her hand tightly. "You trick

"Hang in there, Shawn. The ambulance is almost here. Almost… Do it for me, okay? Don't fall asleep. Hang on…" Gale mumbled.She was terrified. Shawn really wanted to raise his hand to wipe away her tears, but he had no strength left.It would be a miracle if he could keep this arm of his.Gale held him and lowered her head against his cheek, wanting to be close to him."Why were you so stupid? Why? You crippled yourself just because Susan asked!"You even pulled that knife right out. Are you not worried about losing too much blood? Did you not want that arm anymore?""Shawn, you better listen here. If you turn into a cripple, I'll leave you! Do you hear me?!""You have to get better…"Shawn pursed his lips, and his eyes slowly shut again."Galey…" Every word he uttered took a lot of strength. He spoke very slowly, "Live on. Love…"After he said that, Shawn shut his eyes, and his head slumped down."Shawn!" Gale's voice pierced through the night sky.The ambulance came roa
