Chapter 268

Before I had the time to figure it out, Shawn had already tightened his arms around my waist andrubbed me with his palm. Just as I thought he was about to do something, he whispered into my ear,"Go to sleep. I'll be here with you." His voice was deep and husky.

Hearing his words, I was momentarily stunned before saying, "Okay."

It had been a long time since Shawn had embraced me. After being surrounded by his scent, I fellasleep within minutes. When I woke up, it was almost noon. Looking at the snow pile, I felt it wasaround my knees' height.

When I went downstairs, I didn't see Shawn, so I went to the study room to look for him. However,there was still no sight of him to be seen.

Where could he have gone?

As I entered the study room, I flipped through the journaling he had written yesterday. At the lowerbottom of the paper was a word—Makur.

Is this his alias? I'm sure Shawn has one since the Xenoses are a huge family. However, I never knewabout his alias. Why did he name himself such a name? Does it have any special meaning behind it?

As I thought about it, I gently touched it with my fingers. After a while, I heard dogs barking fromdownstairs and went to open the window. Then, I saw Diego struggling to hold onto two GermanShepherds while Shawn was standing under the roof as he stared at Diego coldly, seemingly that

Diego and the dogs were unwelcome by him.

Since the dogs were huge and disobedient, Diego had a hard time holding the leashes. Then, hesmiled. "What's with the face? I'm here to give you two watchdogs to avoid some terrible human beingfrom entering your house."

Terrible human beings? Who is Diego talking about?

When Shawn heard his words, he refused. "You should save them for yourself."

"Come on. I dragged them here from a long way." Then, Diego tied their leashes against the tree by thebackyard and said, "I'm going to put them here. Afterward, someone will be here to build the doghouse.Don't worry. You don't need to feed them. I have asked someone to feed them daily and bring them fora wash at the pet store."

Hearing his words, Shawn was speechless. Then, he ignored Diego and entered the house while thelatter followed suit. Then, I walked out of the study room and stood at the stairway.

When Diego saw me, he was not surprised at all. "So it's you! No wonder there are so many Xenosesby the door. Do you have any spare time in the afternoon? Let's go grab a meal," he asked with a smilewhile raising an eyebrow.

Just as I was curious why he would invite me for lunch all of a sudden, he continued, "Emma is also inFinland. Let's ask her too. I'll give you a ride home tonight."

No wonder… It is all because of Emma. "I have to get back to Bryxton by noon," I replied.

"So soon?" Diego frowned and asked.

"What's the matter?"

"Didn't Shawn promise me to visit my grandfather yesterday?"

Hearing his words, I looked at Shawn, and the latter had a faint expression on his face, seemingly as ifhe didn't care about it.

"Oh. I don't know about this."

"Are you still going?" Diego asked as he looked at Shawn.

"I don't have the time," replied Shawn.

"Alright then. Suit yourself. I'm going home to deal with something important."

Diego did not stay for long before he left. Looking at his frantic movements, one would have thought he

lived nearby.

After he had left, I walked down the stairs. On the other hand, Shawn looked at me. "Did you sleep welllast night?"

"Yes. It did." I smiled and nodded, reminiscing about falling asleep in his arms.

At that moment. Shawn knew the hidden meaning of my words and tilted his head to the side as helooked at the German Shepherds outside. "Do you like dogs?"

"I quite like them," I said honestly.

"If that is so, why don't you give them a name?"

Hearing his words, I was delighted. "Are you going to keep them?"

"You like dogs, don't you?" he responded.

"I'm not good at coming up with names, though," I said.

Then, Shawn didn't answer me, but I didn't mind at all since he was the quiet type.

I walked toward him and held his cold hands as I asked curiously, "Why did you name Leo as River,Sunny?"

"That's because you used to lie to me while using this name. Hence, this name is meaningful to me.You are Myra, and Leo is River. You two are my sweethearts."

He is such a flirt to say such sweet words while looking serious!

I looked at him adoringly. "What about Skyler?"

After hearing my question, he paused for a moment before saying, "I thought we just needed a name."

When I heard his answer, I realized I might have to pamper Skyler more often.

Then, I smiled and tiptoed as I kissed him on the cheek. Then, his eyes darkened as he reminded meof his husky voice. "Watch it."

At that moment, I didn't sense his lustful desire and had forgotten that he was a man that was abstinentfor a long time. Then, I pushed my luck and said, "You are my boyfriend. It's not illegal to kiss you. Also,I can kiss you whenever I want."

When Shawn heard my words, desire filled his eyes, and he grabbed my hand and put it on hismanhood.

At that moment, I sucked in a sharp breath. "Pervert!"

"Help me, babe." His voice was low and magnetic.

Hearing his words, I couldn't help but turn red in the face.

…

When I returned to the room, I was exhausted, and my palms hurt. However, Shawn was satisfied. Still,why didn't he just sleep with me? I was curious about this question. It couldn't be because it's daytime,could it?

Thinking about it, I tossed and turned on the bed and couldn't pinpoint it. At this moment, I heard dogsbarking from downstairs and went to the balcony. I saw workers building a doghouse and a smallamusement park that could take shelter from the rain. Diego sure put in a lot of effort!

As the hammering sound occurred outside the house, I changed into a set of clothes and headeddownstairs when I saw Shawn had a laptop on his knees, seemingly to be dealing with some affairs.Then, I walked past him and went out the door. When the dogs saw me, they were enthusiastic andkept wagging their tails. "Are you guys hungry?" I crouched in front of them and asked.

As I patted their heads, I heard the worker say, "They don't look like they are hungry. They seem tohave taken a liking to you."

"You know how to speak English?" I asked in surprise.

The worker smiled and said, "Yes. I'm a gardener from the Hayes Family."

Hearing his words, I asked him curiously, "How long does it take to arrive here from the HayesResidence?"

"It isn't that far. It's only about four miles away from here."

Since it's about four miles, it would only take thirty minutes to get there. Thinking about it, I got up andreturned to the villa. Then, I sat by Shawn's side and asked him in concern, "Sunny, wouldn't it be bad

for you not to visit Diego's grandfather when you had already promised him? Why don't you go and visithim while I make lunch as I wait for you to return?"

Hearing my words, Shawn suddenly shut his laptop. "Do you remember that I told you that I was goingto take you to see someone, Ray?"

Realization struck me when I heard his words. "Is it Diego's grandfather?" I asked.

"Yes," replied Shawn as he nodded. Then, he grabbed my hand and put it on his belt, gently rubbingmy hand against it. I never noticed when he had such a habit. It was as if he was happy that I rubbedmy hand against that particular area.

"Is he that someone important to you told me about?" I asked.

Suddenly, I recalled that Diego used to say that Hayes had taken Shawn in before. When I heard Diegosay such words, I felt my heart being pierced with a knife. I had always wanted to know what Shawnwas like in the past but had never gotten the chance. However, right now, he took the initiative to bringup the person who was important to him in the past and even wanted to take me to him. I wondered ifhe was opening up to me.

"Yes. Do you want to meet him?" Shawn asked.
