Chapter 139 Looks Like Daddy Isn’t That Stupid

Shay seemed to care about Courtney very much, and she had never dismissed his feelings. However, his feelings mostly came from the time when she rescued him from the boxing ring—it was the turning point of his life. Therefore, the more successful he became and the closer he got to the life he always wanted to live, the more thankful he felt toward her.

As a result, Courtney, the one who turned the gears of fate and changed his life, became his faith.

“Thanks.”

Courtney felt as if her eardrums were going to burst from all the screaming around her. Then, she yelled at Oliver, “This girl has gone mad. If you can’t stand it, you can leave first.”

Only his clean and clear voice could be heard as it seeped into everybody’s hearts with the sound of his guitar. He wrote his beliefs into his song. It touched many of his fans and brought tears to their eyes. Unfortunately, the only person who was not touched by the song was the very person the song was dedicated to.
