My Love for You Broke Me

Chapter 702 Prank

Because of the words that Shawn said last night, I couldn't help but worry. Nevertheless, I was confident that he wouldn't make me worry during our babies' first birthday party. He would do his best to keep the whole event under control. Even if something did happen, he would keep me out of it.

"It's just the matters I mentioned last night. I'll deal with them after the birthday party. Don't worry about it, Ray. I have my plans."

He was Shawn Xenos. He was powerful; he was in control of everything; he was a hunter with a gun; and he was also my husband. Hence, I had to trust him with all my heart.

"Okay. I trust you."

"Papa!" River called out from the bed.

Shawn put away his phone and picked her up. Since she was a child, she looked like a little ball in Shawn's arms.

River hugged his neck and kissed his cheek. Well, it couldn't really be called a kiss but more like a bite. Her teeth were not strong enough to bite him yet, but she left some saliva on his face. Watching them, I suddenly felt emotional. The man I used to think only I could kiss now had his heart set on another girl.

And this girl… was someone I loved more than myself.

I was willing to protect her with my life.

Perhaps that was the power of family bonds.

Meanwhile, Shawn held River up and put her on the carpet. The one-year-old child crawled on the floor and occasionally stood up and took a few steps. Shawn looked at her with a fascinated expression while spreading his arms and encouraging her, "Come to Daddy."

Shawn was less than three feet away from the child. River wobbled and eventually stumbled into his arms. Her nose accidentally hit his chin, and perhaps it hurt too much, she started bawling. Shawn looked at me helplessly before picking up River, who was crying. Then, he slid her into my arms.

With pursed lips, he muttered, "She's making a fuss."

While comforting River, I remarked, "You made the child cry and you blame her for making a fuss? There, there, River. Don't cry. Let me take a look at where it hurts."

Shawn explained, "That's not what I meant."

I knew very well that he wasn't great at soothing children.

It took me a long time to calm River down before she stopped crying. After a while, the nannies came upstairs and took the two children away. Shawn went to the bathroom to freshen up and came out wearing a black formal suit.

The white cuffs on his wrist were slightly longer than his black sleeves and were ornamented with a gold button on each side. This suit was tailor-made for him. Then, I picked up the rolled-up black tie and handed it to him. After wearing it on his neck, he opened the drawer and picked a mechanical watch to match his outfit today.
