Skeletons Of The Marital Closet

Chapter 723

“Because he’s Daddy.”

Gale was unable to say anything about that.

It was true. Shawn was Nicole’s father. Blood was thicker than water. It was something. that could never be changed.

“Also, Daddy can lift me up and let me fly. He lets me sit on his shoulder. Mommy, I don’t want you to work too hard. Just let daddy do it! Nicole said.

“Hahaha, thank you for thinking about me.”

“You’re welcome, Mommy.”

Gale smiled and fed her some vegetables. “Eat up.”

Nicole’s face soured.

Gale took the chance to say, “I told you, you can’t be picky. Nicole, you can’t be too easy to fool. Just picking you up can buy you over. There are some people who you can’t forgive so easily.”

Those words were targeted at Shawn.

He had just been planning to answer that he would give Nicole even more things. He would. not hold back both materialistically or in spirit.

He wanted to make Nicole the most respected princess in Sea City!

However, Nicole answered cutely, “Daddy gave me bone marrow, Mommy. With Daddy’s bone marrow, I can go out of the hospital. I can not be sick. anymore.”

Gale had nothing to say about that.

It made perfect sense.

That was true. Shawn even gave her bone marrow.

That time around, Gale had completely lost to the father-and-daughter pair!

She lowered her head and ate silently, no longer saying anything else.

While she was distracted, Shawn took away some of the vegetables from Nicole’s plate.

Nicole stuck out her tongue.

It was the most comfortable meal Shawn had ever had.

In the afternoon, the nurse came over.

The nurse was very gentle. “Nicole, we’ll need to draw some of your blood later. Are your ready?”

Nicole nodded.

“She’s a good girl. She won’t cry. Which room is it? I’ll bring her there,” Gale said.

The nurse said, “There’s no need, I’ll bring her there. We’ll make sure to take good care of her. She’ll have a person dedicated to checking her. It’s different from regular outpatient treatment.”

“Mommy, I can go with the nurse. You should just rest.”

Nicole held the nurse’s hand by herself and walked out.

Gale stood in place.

For some reason, she felt a strange sense of loss at that moment.

Before that, Nicole only had her to rely on. Gale had to do everything for Nicole.

Yet, after they returned to Sea City, Nicole had Shawn. She had someone to take care of her at the hospital as well. Gale did not need to worry about Nicole at all.

Shawn had already arranged everything, ensuring Nicole got the best treatment.

Gale suddenly felt like her daughter had grown up and was about to go away, that she was no longer the only person Nicole had.

“What are you thinking about?” She heard Shawn’s voice. “The nurse is very professional. You don’t need to worry.”

“I know.”

Gale sighed internally, not revealing her disappointment.

She had her head lowered, and saw Shawn’s shoes the moment she turned around.

She walked to the side, wanting to avoid him.

Shawn followed her to that side.

He was insisting on blocking her way. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

“What are you doing?” Gale looked up, staring at him. “Give way.”

Without Nicole around, she really did not know how to interact with Shawn.

She was not used to the two of them being together alone!
