My Love for You Broke Me

Chapter 211

Chapter 211

I turned around in surprise and asked dubiously, "I thought you'd be coming from… Wait. How are you here already?"

As snowflakes swirled around the night sky, I turned around to see Shawn, but he was not in his usual black suit.

Standing right before my eyes was a man in a thin, black military uniform. The jet leather belt hung slightly around his waist, complementing his slim figure and making him look neat and sturdy.

In addition to his rigid expression, the way he placed his hands behind exuded a rigorous yet sexy aura. Still, the hair resting on his forehead smoothened his persona. He looked splendid!

It was a sight I had never seen before. Before he managed to utter a word, I scurried to him and wrapped my arms around his neck. In the meantime, he held my waist firmly to catch me from falling.

"Sunny," I called lovingly.

"What's wrong? Aren't you mad at me anymore?" Smidgens of affection laced his gruff voice.

I rested my chin on his shoulder as I shook my head. "I wasn't mad at you. I was just mad at myself."

Shawn did not say anything as I apologized, "Sorry. It was my fault and yet, I vented it out on you."

He stretched out his arm to caress my head softly. "Waylen said that it's normal for women to be moody at times."

He never blames me no matter what happens, but what about him? Doesn't he feel wronged?

"Sorry, Sunny."

"Hmm. No more next time." His hand on my neck pushed me lightly into his embrace as he said indifferently, "Do not claim that you don't know me, ever."

Shawn had always displayed a nonchalant demeanor. He had slogged through countless dangers as of today, and the serenity in his eyes never wavered. He could always keep his cool in the face of troubles as if he was the calm sea.

It pained me to see him acting like this. Suddenly, Bertie's question came to my mind. Do you know him well, then?

I've never understood him, but I want to because I care for this ever-calm man!

I nestled in his arms and promised sternly, "No matter what happens in the future, I will never pretend to not know you ever again. Sunny, unless you don't want me anymore, I will never leave you."

"Appreciate what you have, Ree."

I understood what he meant by that—he wished for me to cherish him and value him. It was then that tears trickled down my cheeks in silence. "I will."

Shawn looked back at the boisterous street and blurted something weird. "He really racked his brain just to make you feel better."

"Who?" I questioned.

Instead of answering my question, he carried me and left the place in that posture. I asked softly, "Where are we going?"

"To Eldham. Home."

When he walked for about a kilometer with me in his arms, I noticed a helicopter far ahead; Waylen was also waiting right there!

He set me down about ten meters away from the helicopter, after which I ran over and shouted, "It's been a long time, Mr. Briar."

Waylen nodded politely. "Ms. Felix."

Once I took over the household responsibilities in the Xenos Family, Waylen was the only subordinate of Shawn who was willing to talk to me. In fact, I was hoping to seek forgiveness from Kevin and the others.

Am I asking too much? Plus, I bet Mr. Briar hasn't forgiven me yet. He's doing this because of Sunny.

At the thought of that, my heart sank in disappointment while I bypassed him to board the helicopter, in which I saw a pale-faced May cuddling in Rudy's arms.

In a black leather jacket, he coldly stared over my shoulder at Shawn and said in displeasure, "Look at my woman. She's badly injured, so why is your woman totally fine?"

Figuring that May's injury had incurred his anger, I hurriedly explained, "May lost consciousness because someone hit her, but I put up an act and fainted before they swung their bats at me."

He frowned. "And those fools bought it?"

Shawn seated himself opposite Rudy and I sat next to him while guessing, "I think they knew about it, but it seems like they didn't want trouble, so they just let me be."

"Lucky you." Rudy sighed.

I nodded before linking onto Shawn's arm and resting my head on his shoulder. As I watched him furtively, he lowered his gaze onto me. Our gaze intertwined midair just like that for a very long time.

A while later, May piped up out of concern, "Are you alright, Ree? I'm feeling kinda dizzy. I can't really speak right now."

"Don't worry about me. It's just that my legs hurt."

"What happened?" asked May softly.

"After I left that building, I went to the city on foot. Snow is piling everywhere and look what I'm wearing. It was freezing and tiring."
