Chapter 378
“So? You can leave me without hesitation for money?”
Gale laughed angrily. “Why are you losing your temper, and why are you jealous? I just said that I don’t need money to leave you.”
“Gale!”
She continued, “Besides, Paula and her son can’t afford it. I’m just teasing them and acting. Why take it so seriously?”
Yes.
Of course, Shawn was serious.
When he watched her say those words lightly, his heart ached.
Although he knew that her greatest wish was to get a divorce and then fly away, he was still unwilling to face it and admit it.
Gale bit her lips. “Taking a step back, even if I really leave you for seven hundred million dollars, it’s only human. How many women can refuse such a huge sum of money? Or do you think that love is more important than money?”
“Don’t think too highly of yourself, Shawn. How good are you to me? How sincere are you to me? Have you loved me unreservedly from the very beginning? If you can actually do that and love me sincerely and truly, I, Gale, don’t need money to be with you. I’d even live a hard life with you.”
“But you’re not worth it…you hurt me so deeply. You’re not worth it!”
Shawn stared at her, his hands hanging by his sides and could not help but clench tightly into fists.
“Gale, I know that you deliberately made things difficult for Zach, and you didn’t want to take the money. Why can’t you be softer and explain to me patiently, okay…coax me?”
Men also needed coaxing.
The same goes for Shawn.
Although he understood that the emotional entanglement between him and Gale would not cause a rift because of the so–called ‘seven hundred million‘, he hoped she could coax him and say it was just a joke.
However, Gale did not.
