My Love for You Broke Me

Chapter 250

Chapter 250

He had no right to say that! Who was he to accuse me? I didn't stab myself in the past, did I?

There were many times when I wished to stab Shawn back, but when the time finally came, I was afraid and felt bad to do it to him.

I stopped in front of him and began, "Shawn."

The man before me was no longer 'Sunny' to me.

He had a stall stature, and I had to look up to meet his eyes.

He slightly lowered his head and returned my gaze with a neutral look. I found myself wanting to say something to him, but words were unnecessary at the moment.

My head was spinning as I got closer to him and pointed the tip at his abdomen. He stayed put, and it was irritating to see the fearless look on his face. It was as if he affirmed that I wouldn't hurt him in the first place.

"Ray, I deserve it."

Even he knew he deserved payback.

But I no longer wanted to do it.

I wanted him to live in guilt for the rest of his life.

My head began to swim. My steps were light, and I could no longer stand still on my feet. I wanted to retreat to Anthony's side, but my body was quickly falling toward the ground. Shawn reacted in time and held me in his arms, though his voice was still cold when he asked, "What's wrong?"

Since he left Eldham for Finland, he had little contact with me during that period and rarely replied to my message. However, he always waited for me to bid him goodnight before he went to sleep. I was extremely happy back then.

I was sure I found myself a man whom I could depend on for the rest of my life, but what he did a month ago jolted me awake from the dream.

It had been two months. Two months after he left Eldham, I was once again leaning against him in such proximity. When I was enveloped in his fresh odor, my body trembled violently.

I felt like I was standing on the thin ice of a frozen sea. One false move would make a crack on the thin surface and spread them further away. I was destined to fall into the sea and drown in the freezing water until the water filled my lungs and I could no longer breathe.

I feebly rested my chin on Shawn's shoulder. Anthony was worriedly calling out to me when Shawn asked in a cold tone, "What's wrong with her?"

Before this, I ordered Anthony to never spill my condition to anyone. Thus, he gave the other man a perfunctory explanation. "Somebody kicked Miss in the head before, which is the reason she feels dizzy all the time. It might have something to do with the sudden change of climate and her body hasn't adapted to the coldness. I'll get the doctor for her."

Shawn repeated after him in a trance, "She got kicked in the head."

Anthony brought a doctor with us on the way.


My eyes felt like shutting on their own will. When my eyes were closed, I could feel Shawn's fingers gently touching my cheek. It was soft and gentle but had the effect of a poison that broke me down.

I finally collapsed in his arms.

In the end, I didn't bring myself to stab him back.

I failed to do it.

Coldness enveloped my body. I kept mumbling for Joseph to ask him to fetch me thick clothing, but I could feel somebody holding me tightly in their arms. Even so, the gesture wasn't enough to keep me warm.

I called out for Joseph. "Are you there?"

I finally got a reply. "I'm here."

"I want to see Leo."

"Who is Leo?" asked him.

Who was it?

I couldn't remember who Leo was.

But I remembered Leo as an adorable baby.

I answered in a panic, "My child is a Leo."

I didn't get any reply after that. A sense of panic overwhelmed me as I fell into dreams, and my dreams took me back to Felix's Villa.

My parents, Leon, Tammie, and my twins were there in the villa, but Shawn and Francesca were nowhere to be found.

I had the same dream before.

Why was I dreaming about it again?

Enormous fear was tearing at me. I tried to open my eyes, but my eyelids were heavy. It was as if I was no longer a living person.

I already lost track of time when I woke up to find myself sleeping on an antique bed. Somehow, I found the place familiar.

Taking a moment to collect myself, I remembered this place as Xenos' Villa, and the courtyard belonged to Shawn. Feeling exhausted, I got up from bed and wore the clothes that were prepared at the bedside. I pushed the door open and found him standing upright, facing away from the door.

The man with his back to me was wearing a suit. The black of his suit was setting off his distant profile. I wanted to close the door and retreat to the room, but I knew better than to run away from my problems. I got out the door and shot him a question. "Why am I here?"

I used a calm voice to talk to him as if the man standing before me was merely a stranger. However, the depression and sadness deep inside of me were telling me the opposite.

At that moment, something occurred to me. I had a hard time keeping my composure when I saw him, while he watched me struggle like he was an outsider.

Outsider…

Shawn was always indifferent to many things.

It was snowing in the courtyard, and the lights in the corridor were on. He began his explanation in a cool voice, "You're in terrible shape. The doctor said you need to rest and recuperate. I think the quiet villa and its beautiful scenery are good for your health, so I brought you here to stay for a while."

Suppressing the emotions that were making a wave inside my chest and my particular hatred for him, I said quietly, "Well, you can leave now."

Shawn stood rooted to the spot. He stayed in silence for a long time before he turned to me. Watching me, he asked, "Speaking of the other day, if I—"

I had no idea what his words would be, but I had zero patience with his visage at the moment. As such, I stopped him impatiently. "Are you going or not?"

His brows knitted. "Ray, do you hate me?"

"Shawn, things are done between us. You made it clear the other day that you want a clean break. How could I ever forget about it?"

He pursed his lips as if he wanted to fight back, but he was silent until the end. His gaze turned cold when he looked at me like I was a stranger.

He then murmured in a low voice, "You should rest."

Once he left, I could no longer stand still. My fingers tightened around the door frame as I pulled myself back to the bed and lay on it.
