CHAPTER 264: CHAPTER 264: LET’S TRY DATING

Godfery Shaw’s cold words instantly lowered the pressure in the hall.

Over the past five years, many have witnessed Godfery’s ruthlessness and his iron will.

It’s over, there are no chances left for them.

In utter despair, the two people wanted to shout obscenities, but the bodyguards quickly covered their mouths.

The bodyguards moved swiftly, as the Young Master was filled with rage; if these people shouted and disturbed the Young Madam, they’d be doomed.

Upstairs.

Nancy Allen had already slept the entire morning, and she woke up shortly after Godfery Shaw closed the door and went out.

Looking at the familiar room, she was momentarily dazed.

Back to the Imperial Garden.

Nancy got out of bed barefoot, looking around the room. Just like the old city, everything was exactly as it was when she left.

She had been gone for five years.

These five years felt like merely a flash, as if she had just slept through them.

But for Godfery Shaw, they were five years of conscious pain.

Sensing that the room still seemed to carry Godfery’s presence, Nancy knew that he frequently stayed here, waiting in pain and desperation.

Suddenly, Nancy felt a deep ache in her heart.

She could see Godfery’s self-blame, but what was he blaming himself for?

Godfery had never wronged her; it was she who had been a burden to him all along.

The person who loved her the most was the one she hurt the deepest.

To accompany her in both past and present lives, Nancy dared not imagine how Godfery endured these five years.

At this moment, Nancy longed to see him.

She wanted to see Godfery immediately.

Without slippers beside the bed, she went out barefoot, silently heading downstairs.

Filled with the urgent desire to see Godfery, she reached the top of the stairs.

She saw downstairs, the two familiar bodyguards were dragging two people out while covering their mouths, creating an oppressive atmosphere that felt like it was going to end in bloodshed.

With Nancy’s appearance, the sound of her soft footsteps.

Everyone turned their heads towards Nancy.

The bodyguards could only think of one word: finished!

The Young Master had deliberately taken advantage of the Young Madam’s rest to deal with these two, but now they had been caught.

The two Shaw family members with their mouths covered also saw Nancy.

The Shaw family members might not recognize anyone else, but they surely recognized the woman before them.

The imprisonment of Amos Shaw, the Shaw family’s downfall, all caused by this woman!

She was the woman Godfery Shaw cherished the most.

One of them took advantage of the bodyguard’s distraction, pushed away the hand covering him, and shouted, "Godfery Shaw, you’re a heartless, emotionless monster! You had the nerve to send your own father to prison; you want our lives, you devil!"

"Amelia Wright! Following him won’t end well for you; this demon will ruin you, he’ll drag you down to hell with him!"

This person was at the end of his rope; things were bad, his family was doomed, and if he suffered, he didn’t want Godfery to have it easy either.

The bodyguards were stunned into a sweat, once again covering the man’s mouth.

They should have quickly dragged the person out, but they hesitated, unsure of what the Young Master would instruct.

Godfery Shaw just sat motionless, his face growing darker, no one knew what he was thinking.

Nancy looked at Godfery Shaw in this state, feeling heartache.

Would he drag her into hell? No, he had always treated her well, always redeeming her.

Back then, he accompanied her to face danger, her obsession during the five years of coma, wanting to see him again, brought her back to life.

Under everyone’s gaze, Nancy stepped downstairs, walking towards Godfery Shaw.

Everyone was silent and tense, unsure of how she would react.

Godfery Shaw, like someone waiting to be judged, was filled with a menacing aura that was about to explode.

Nancy walked up to Godfery Shaw, looking at him as if he were submerged in darkness, she sat beside him, slightly pouting and pointed at her bare feet, then at Godfery’s shoes.

The meaning was clear, she had no shoes, so she came down barefoot.

Every muscle in Godfery’s body was taut.

He thought she would detest hearing these dark words, yet she sat beside him, her jade-like bare feet gently swaying.

What was she doing?

She didn’t despise him?

Seeing Godfery Shaw still unmoved.

Nancy naturally leaned against him, soft and tender, as if silently asking, are you sure you don’t want to come closer?

The fury within Godfery Shaw was pierced, deflating.

His body reacted faster than his mind; seeing her complain about having no shoes, he instinctively lifted her onto his lap, his large hands warming her cold feet.

The delicate flower extinguished the demon king’s anger.

The bodyguards were stunned!

This time, upon the Young Madam’s return, her attitude towards the Young Master was clearly different, no longer cold.

The two Shaw family members glared at Nancy furiously, trying to struggle and shout, but the bodyguards covered them tightly, not allowing them to escape again.

Nancy glanced at the two, lazily leaning into Godfery’s embrace.

Godfery Shaw stiffened and waved to the bodyguards, who quickly dragged them out.

The hall quieted, Nancy nestled in his arms, not moving, simply wanting to be closer to him.

Nancy remained still, and Godfery dared not move.

Nancy looked up at Godfery, wanting to speak, but she realized her little notebook wasn’t on her. Godfery then handed her an exquisite little notebook.

Sitting on Godfery Shaw’s lap, Nancy wrote: "Godfery Shaw, let’s try dating."

This was the result of Nancy’s serious consideration; she and Godfery had directly married in two lifetimes, their interactions were limited.

Nancy felt they should start by dating.

Even though they were already married, they could go from marriage to love.

Godfery Shaw felt like he was losing his mind, he didn’t know how to react.

He had never imagined Nancy would say such a thing.

Seeing Godfery Shaw not react, Nancy was puzzled. Was he refusing?

That didn’t seem right, given Godfery’s unwavering love, he shouldn’t reject such a small request.

So Nancy reached out, embraced Godfery’s neck, leaned close to his ear, and whispered, "Godfery Shaw!"

Nancy, without any burden, acted coyly, considering all they had done, a little intimacy seemed normal.

Godfery Shaw shuddered.

Only her name, yet the impact on Godfery Shaw was immense.

Godfery’s mind was a chaotic mess, unable to think as he replied, "Okay."

Nancy smiled happily, wrote: "Then I’m your girlfriend now."

Godfery Shaw wanted to say they hadn’t divorced, Nancy was his wife.

But Nancy said she was a girlfriend, so she was a girlfriend.

Godfery Shaw had never thought, someone like him, would one day have a girlfriend.

What should he do?

How should he date?
