Chapter 479 Her Heart Relented

Looking at the lights in a distance, Nell’s thoughts were slightly jumbled. Noticing that something was off, Gideon asked, “What’s wrong? What are you thinking about?” Nell collected her thoughts, then shook her head and smiled. “Nothing, I was just thinking about how Gale Shelby has sought me out multiple times, just to make me accept my identity as a descendant of the Shelby family, but I’ve refused repeatedly. “Today, he even brought out that piece of jade and spoke about my father’s bequest, yet I still rejected him. That is because I do not want to be related to the Shelby family. Am I being too heartless?” Gideon regarded her with a strange look. Nell laughed. “Do you think it’s weird that I’m thinking like this?” Gideon did not try to hide it as he nodded honestly. “You were very disdainful towards them before, so this is… quite surprising.” Nell sighed lightly. She stretched out her hand and stroked her abdomen gently. A soft smile played across her lips.
