"What?! I represent so many luxury brands. I'm the most suitable person to represent the Wood Group. Why would you deny me like that?""An endorsed celebrity doesn't just represent the product, but the company's image and core values. I'm sorry, but we won't consider working with someone of your character, Ms. Nightingale," Gale said.Winnie pointed at Gale but could not find the words to say.She had been so intent on getting closer to Shawn. She would first get endorsed by the Wood Group. After that, she would develop a personal relationship with Mr. Wood. She might even be able to use that opportunity to become Mr. Wood's secret lover…Yet, the moment Gale appeared, it all went up in smoke!"Put your hand away. Winnie, she's not someone you can point at," Shawn said calmly.His sharp gaze swept across here, and Winnie shuddered. She immediately pulled her hand back. Shawn was way too imposing. Winnie tried to act cute. "Mr. Wood, I think we…we can still try working togethe

Shawn said plainly, "What if I buy Heart of the Sea and give it to you?"Gale suddenly looked at him.Buy it?Was he being serious?"Only you would be a match for it, my princess," Shawn said.A crown was naturally suited to a princess.She was his princess.Gale composed herself and answered, "No need, I wouldn't dare. There are some things that are better off just being looked at.""But I want you to have it.""There are too many people who want Heart of the Sea. If it goes on auction, the fight will be very intense," Gale answered.Shawn raised his head, and his eyes were full of confidence and pride. "I've never let anything I want evade my grasp."Even though everyone here was rich and wealthy, no one was able to stand up to the Wood Family's wealth!"I don't want it. Shawn, stop wasting your money and effort. Even if you buy ten of them, things are impossible between us!" Gale refused."When a woman says no, she means yes.""You!" Gale bit her lips.In truth, she o

How many of the wealthy would be so free to spend billions on a crown that did not have any practical usage?Shawn's expression remained serious. No one could tell what he was thinking."It's so expensive. I feel like no one is going to bid on it," Gale said.Shawn answered, "Let's wait and see."The auctioneer said, "The auction will officially begin. Bids will start at one and a half billion dollars. Will anyone be bidding?"There was complete silence.At that moment, Aurum suddenly said, "I."Everyone looked toward him.Natalie earned looks of envy and jealousy from every woman there standing next to Aurum!If Aurum bought it, it would definitely be for his fiance!It was 1.5 billion! He was spending a fortune just to make his woman smile. Seeing that, Winnie immediately said, "Wow, Natalie, you're so lucky! Mr. Lefting is actually buying the Heart of the Sea for you!"Natalie let out a shy smile as she looked at Gale with a pleased expression.She was the daughter of

That unassuming, gentle-looking woman was actually the Mrs. Wood of legend!She had only been heard of before and never seen. Yet, she had appeared that day!She kept such a low profile!"When we arrived today, I introduced my wife to the media outside. Now, in front of all you esteemed guests, I'll introduce her again. Gale is my wife. She's the woman I'll spend my life with!" Shawn said.Both Natalie and Winnie's expressions soured immensely. They even started to pale.Gale was actually Shawn's wife!That woman who had the envy of every single woman in Sea City was Gale!Winnie finally understood why Shawn agreed when Gale said they would not work with her!"So, I want to buy the Heart of the Sea for my wife. Is there a problem with that, Mr. Lefting?" Shawn replied with a smirk.Gale looked down at her feet.She was the target of all the attention at that moment, and she did not want to look up to meet anyone's gaze.They had been married for so long, but Shawn chose the

"... Alright. I'll concede to Mr. Wood and… Mrs. Wood," Aurum answered.Aurum knew how to evaluate the situation.He would have to spend close to three billion dollars, and he would even make an enemy out of Shawn. No matter what, it was not worth it.He would lose too much!The auctioneer said, "Alright! Mr. Wood has put in a 2.8 billion dollar bid! Is anyone going to bid anything higher? Then, I'll formally announce that a deal has been made for the Heart of the Sea! Mr. Wood has won the bid!"That was met with a lot of applause that did not stop.However, Gale did not feel happy at all.When she needed money, Shawn acted so stingy and petty, not giving it to her. She had been forced to pick up trash and recyclables.To him, that had just been a completely insignificant amount of money. It would have gotten her mother the special medication, but he refused. It ended up making her mother worse. Yet, at that moment, he spent so much just to get her an extravagant crown. Yes
