Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan) novel Chapter 184

Galen was pleased by her words, chuckling heartily as he held Monique into his arms, "Do you want to become someone who people think is incredible?"

Monique looked a little diffident, but her eyes were filled with desire, "Can I?"

Galen responded with utmost certainty, "Of course you can. I am not born being the best either, but I am willing to learn. Knowledge is the superpower that can change everything."

Monique seemed energized by these words, but before she could express her determination, Probert, afraid of being left behind, quickly chimed in, "Grandpa, I want to learn from you too. If Monique can do it, so can I."

Seizing the opportunity, Galen immediately asked, "Do you want to manage this street and make it your own?"

"Really? Can we do that, Grandpa? Is this street ours like people say it is?" Monique asked again.

"Of course, it's ours," Galen said with pride, his answer firm and resolute.

Not only the children but even I felt a sense of pride within me like never before.

"So we're really the owners of this street?"

"Yes!"

"That's amazing. I admire you, Grandpa!"

Monique's exclamation cut off Galen, revealing the inherent nature of the Dawsons.

I couldn't help but glance at Galen, who shrugged slightly, looking a bit deflated.

Galen raised a hand to stop me, continuing to speak to Monique, "So Monique, do you want to help me manage this street? After all, I'm getting older and there will come a time when I can't manage it anymore. Then it'll be up to you."

Monique quickly responded, but asked doubtfully, "Grandpa, are you saying you'll give me this street in the future?"

"That depends on whether you can shoulder this responsibility. If you can, it's yours. But the condition is that you must strive to make yourself strong, strong enough that no one can knock you down or take what's in your hands."

Galen's words were classic. To protect what everyone covets, we must be strong enough to hold onto it. Just like I failed to protect my Medsafe Liyah Inc, which only proved that I was not strong enough.

I saw Gemma come out pretending to tidy up, and she picked up her phone on the way.

Galen and I exchanged a knowing glance.

And I was relieved that all the conversation had been recorded.

I was not afraid of them knowing that we said they were uneducated. This was the Dawson family's Achilles' heel and the best way to destroy them.

What they fear most deep down was us looking down on them. Otherwise, no matter how much they protested, they wouldn't dare to change Monique's name, would they?

Another point was that Jaylan would love to hear Galen say that the street would be Monique's in the future. That was exactly what the Dawson family thought. Galen was getting old, and sooner or later everything here would be ours. This was the essence of it.

It seemed our objective had been met.

Just then, a message popped up.
