Chapter 449
“… 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.

Yes, the crown looked incredibly beautiful. Any woman would want it. However, Gale felt like the crown would not
affect her life at all!
It was nice to have something pretty, but she wanted someone to save her!
Everyone was smiling, and everyone was looking at Gale with expressions of envy.
It was almost three billion!
It was the only one of its kind!
“Shawn… You never know what I really want,” Gale muttered.
It was too noisy around them, and he did not hear what she said.
The person in charge of the exhibition walked over with a key. Facing everyone’s gaze, he slowly opened the case
the Heart of the Sea was in. With white gloves on, he carefully took out the Heart of the Sea.
“Mr. Wood, from now on, the Heart of the Sea is yours,” the person said.
The crown was absolutely radiant no matter where you looked at it from.
Shawn took it.
The crown was slightly heavy. After all, it had over a hundred gems on it and was made of pure gold.
He turned to look at Gale. “It’s yours, Galey.”
The two of them faced each other.
Shawn slowly lifted the crown and tried to put it on her head.
Gale’s clothes suited the crown very well.
However, just as the crown was about to touch her head, Gale took a step back.
She would not wear it.
She wanted to show that she really did not want it.
The Heart of the Sea was like a curse. Gale would never
dare to wear it, nor did she want to!
The place was incredibly silent. No one dared to say
anything at that moment.
Shawn’s expression sank.
“Galey?” He motioned for her to walk over.
Gale did not move.
“I understand, you really don’t want it.” Shawn looked right at the crown in his hand.

She had been saying that and emphasizing it, but he had not wanted to listen or believe her!
“Then.” Shawn pursed his lips, and he said in a casual tone, “Since its rightful owner doesn’t want it, then it lost all
its value.”
What was the meaning of that?
Before Gale could even react, Shawn raised the crown up high before he suddenly loosened his grip!
He actually let go!
Gale widened her eyes as she watched the crown fall to the ground!
Shawn was crazy!
He actually wanted to throw the Heart of the Sea away!
He had just bought it for so much money. Even putting aside the money, the crown was something with great
historical and artistic value. It was a unique existence among other jewelry. How could he just destroy it like that?!
The Heart of the Sea had been through centuries without any harm to it at all. It was an absolute treasure that was
priceless.
