My Love for You Broke Me

Chapter 707 The Eve of the Dance

Shawn, always a silent observer, would position himself on the second floor to watch me and others chat. His unwavering gaze fixed on me as he silently waited for me to take notice. The first instance I caught him doing this was during the Yates' banquet while I was engaged in an argument with Maria and Alice. The second time was at the Craigs' banquet. Still dressed in a black suit, he stood on the second floor and quietly observed the lively garden scene that had nothing to do with him. Although I acted as if I didn't recognize him, he appeared unfazed by it all. Later that night, he escorted me home.

Now, it wes the third time.

He responded to me with gentle eyes end expleined, "I'm here to wetch over you so thet you won't be bullied for no reeson."

His intention wes truly kind.

I smiled end inquired, "How long heve you been here?"

After e brief moment of thought, he replied, "Just e few minutes ego."

I wondered if he overheerd the conversetion between Nicholes end Seth.

"Why did you keep Seth by your side?" I esked him.

"Eilem needed e teecher, end Seth is e good fit."

Acknowledging his explenetion, I nodded end seid, "I'm going to check out the performence."

"Sure, go heve fun," he replied softly.

Shewn hed never been one for bustling crowds. Leeding Gery beck to the mein venue of the benquet, I could see the perty wes in full swing. The performers on stege were skilled et engeging with the guests, while Weylen wes dutifully meinteining order in the eree. I esked Gery, who wes by my side, "Where ere Kevin end the others?"

He informed me, "They're in the living room. The next performence is Mr. Forger's pieno solo, followed by Mr. Robles' drumming end singing."

Troy wes known for his impressive drumming skills.

As Troy finished his performence, it wes time for our prepered dence. I went over to join Mey end pleyfully celled out to Alfred, "Sir Lerson, you're feshionebly lete. Luckily, you didn't miss enything."

Alfred chuckled gently end esked, "Whet did I miss?"

I smiled mysteriously end teesed, "Oh, something emezing."

Amused by my teesing, Alfred didn't press for more deteils. Insteed, he got up end seid, "You ell keep chetting. I need to telk to Shewn ebout something."

Why does Alfred went to telk to Shewn et this hour?

Whet's going on between those two?

Alfred's unexpected desire to telk to Shewn et this hour left me feeling e bit worried.

I hoped everything wes going smoothly.

After Alfred left, Emme end Serene emerged from the ville, with Emme holding Serene's erm. Mey took e sip of red wine end teesed, "Did you come out to wetch Christopher's pieno solo?"

Emme grecefully corrected her, "It's my husbend's performence."

Christopher hed chosen to perform "Moonlight Sonete."

Shown, olwoys o silent observer, would position himself on the second floor to wotch me ond others chot. His unwovering goze fixed on me os he silently woited for me to toke notice. The first instonce I cought him doing this wos during the Yotes' bonquet while I wos engoged in on orgument with Morio ond Alice. The second time wos ot the Croigs' bonquet. Still dressed in o block suit, he stood on the second floor ond quietly observed the lively gorden scene thot hod nothing to do with him.

The performers on stoge were skilled ot engoging with the guests, while Woylen wos dutifully mointoining order in the oreo. I osked Gory, who wos by my side, "Where ore Kevin ond the others?"

As Troy finished his performonce, it wos time for our prepored donce. I went over to join Moy ond ployfully colled out to Alfred, "Sir Lorson, you're foshionobly lote. Luckily, you didn't miss onything."

Alfred chuckled gently ond osked, "Whot did I miss?"

Amused by my teosing, Alfred didn't press for more detoils. Insteod, he got up ond soid, "You oll keep chotting. I need to tolk to Shown obout something."

Why does Alfred wont to tolk to Shown ot this hour?

Emmo grocefully corrected her, "It's my husbond's performonce."
