Chapter 529
“Tonight, this place belongs to the two of us, and no one will disturb you.”
“I’ve reserved the restaurant.”
Shawn pulled out a chair for her gentlemanly.
He always wanted to give her the best and most expensive, but she always acted as though she could not care less.
He did not know what she wanted or cared about except for divorce.
Gale sat down, and the sea breeze smelled of saltiness.
She was restless and did not care about the surrounding environment at all, let alone how romantic it was.
“What do you want to eat?” Shawn handed over the menu.
“You can order. Anything is fine.”
Gale lowered her eyes with a look of lack of interest.
Shawn only thought that it was because he booked the venue without her authorization and made her unhappy, so
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthe did not think much about it.
Gale looked at the endless sea.
More than a dozen yachts are docked in this port, all places for leisure and entertainment. There were not only
restaurants but also hotels, billiards courts, clubs, and so on.
Apart from the one she and Shawn were on, there were many yachts floating around the port. At first glance, the
lights were bright and lively.
One of the yachts happened to be having a party, and a large group of men and women could be seen having fun.
Gale looked over one by one.
Finally, she saw Aurum on the deck of the yacht in front left!
Her uneasy heart felt at ease at this moment!
Aurum was here!
He was always there!
“What are you looking at?” Shawn’s voice came out suddenly.
Gale panicked, and she accidentally dropped the knife and fork to the ground.
Shawn took a look in the direction she was looking.
Nothing unusual.
“No… didn’t see anything. I was in a daze. I just glanced around.” She swallowed. The waiter came over and picked
up the tableware. “Mrs. Wood, I’ll change a new set for you.”
“Thank you.”
“You’re a little absent–minded. Gale, you invited me to this dinner,” Shawn said.
She joked half–heartedly, wanting to liven up the atmosphere and calm down her mind. “Yeah, I invited you when I
could still afford this meal. If you keep this up, my monthly salary is not enough to pay for it.”
“Why would you need money when you are dining with me?”
“That would mean you invited me instead.”
Shawn raised his eyebrows deeply. “There is no reason for that. My money is your money.”
Gale pouted and said, “I am not as wasteful. You are not thrifty in housekeeping.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter seeing Aurum, Gale was not as nervous as before.
In an instant, she felt at ease, and she could chat with Shawn as if nothing had happened and even joke around.
“Thrifty?” Shawn never had this word in his life dictionary. “Yes, Mrs. Wood, I’m used to wasting, and I need you to
take good care of this family in the days to come.” After a pause, he smiled and said, “However, the most
important thing I have is money. You can spend it as you like.”
It was worthwhile for her.
“I can’t spend all your money in ten lifetimes. I never cared about your money,” Gale said.
She thanked the waiter for bringing new tableware.
It was completely dark.
On the sidewalk by the sea, all the street lamps were lit up, forming a slender strip of light, illuminating the night of
the city.
The yacht was also full of lights.
The breeze was gentle, and the temperature was warm. It was indeed an excellent time for a date.
“Gale, I know what you care about. Give me some time. Give me another chance,” Shawn replied.
She replied, “Okay.”
