Chapter 517

Shawn took the phone. I saw him typing out a sentence. 'You're as lovely as the sunset, Mrs. Xenos."

Lovely. Such a gentle, beautiful word.

It was impossible not to be moved when Shawn was being romantic.

He posted the Story himself before passing his phone back to me. I draped my legs across his lap andasked, "Was it relaxing?"

"You mean the bath?"

"Yeah. Does your body feel relaxed?"

He smiled. "Yes."

The candles had been lit for several minutes now, and their fragrance filled the air. I stuck my legsunder his robe for warmth and asked, "Are you cold?"

"Isn't it hot in the summer?"

He seemed to have lost all his sense of romance now.

I leaned against the couch. "I'm bored."

He turned to me. "Do you want to do something?"

My mind immediately jumped to something R-rated. "It's too tiring to do that every day."

"I just mean something fun. What are you thinking about?"

I was speechless.

He was beginning to tease me now.

I couldn't be bothered to answer him. I took his phone and checked his Instagram. There were overtwenty notifications, so I clicked on them out of curiosity and saw the comments. 'Are you showing off,Shawn?'

It was someone named Diego Hayes who left the comment.

There was only one Diego Hayes who could address Shawn by his first name.

Emma, Ian, Waylen, Amy, Sir, and several other people all reacted to the Story. There were manynames that I didn't recognize.

I figured they were Shawn's friends from Europe.

I closed the Story without asking him about them.

Right then, I noticed there were unread messages in his WhatsApp chat group.

I checked to see what Kevin sent.

'I can't believe Sunny's flaunting his relationship.'

He even added a crying emoji.

No one responded to him.

After a while, Aimes sent a text, 'Do you have nothing better to do?'

Kevin replied with an ellipsis and didn't send anything else again.

The next text came from Tracy. 'Why do I have to see you people talking about all sorts of nonsenseevery day? It's so boring. I want to leave the chat group!'

Amy sent her retort. 'Can you bear to do that?'

'Why wouldn't I?' Tracy fired back.

Amy sent an emoji that depicted a knowing look.

The chat group went dead again.

I put the phone down and squirmed around until I was nestled comfortably in Shawn's arms. He put hisarms around me, and I toyed with the wedding ring on his finger. Once I was bored of that, I beganplaying with his bangle.

In the past, he never wore bangles, but after we got married, he brought out the pair of bangles hetreasured. We each wore one.

I stretched out my arm to put the two bangles side by side before saying with a chuckle, "My hand isfairer than yours, Sunny."

Shawn looked down. "That's not surprising."

He was a little more tanned than I was, and his palm looked a lot fairer in contrast. Anyone who likedhands would love his.

I couldn't resist biting his hand. "Your fingers are so pretty."

Shawn didn't stop me. I was about to go even further when his phone started ringing. I saw Rudy'sname on the screen. Shawn frowned and answered the call. "What do you want?"

"Is that lunatic, LG, in Bryxton, Shawn?"

Rudy called LG a lunatic.

"Yes," he replied with his brows furrowed.

"What about you? Where are you?"

"I'm on my honeymoon."

"Is that the place in your Instagram Story?"

"Why did you call me?" Shawn asked impatiently.

"That lunatic is looking all over for me. She wants to take revenge. I'm powerless and injured right now.Hurry up and come back to Bryxton!"

Shawn hung up on Rudy.

I hugged his waist and asked, "What's the grudge between them?"

"Rudy tried to get LG killed before. The assassination attempt failed, but LG bears a grudge and istrying to get her revenge now. Waylen said she has killed quite a few people in Bryxton."

"That's too belligerent of her!"

LG acted as if she was above the law.

"She's a lunatic," Shawn replied.

"I heard that your mother killed her."

"Yeah. She's a lunatic, so my mother couldn't keep her around, but who would've known that she wasalive after all? It was Aimes who saved her."

"Why did Aimes save her?" I asked curiously.

"Aimes used to be with WT," Shawn explained. "You could say he's an old acquaintance of LG's. Butwe haven't spoken since he and I left WT. We have differing beliefs, so we went our separate ways."

"Isn't Aimes on the same side as Tracy and Amy? I thought he was the son of a wealthy family. I neverknew he was from WT…"

"He is the son of a wealthy family. His aunt married WT's Alfie Dean, so they're related. The Murraysthrew him to WT because they wanted to train him. Aimes…"

Shawn hesitated, so I pressed, "What is it?"

"Aimes had a nasty temper even as a child. He turned his nose up at everyone when he was in WT."

I had first-hand experience with just how bad Aimes' temper could be.

"Did he try to bully you when he was with WT?" I asked sympathetically.

"Yeah, he did, but I beat him up. He learned his lesson and didn't try to get in my way again. We neverspoke, not even after he left WT. It's only later on that I heard he and Kevin were close."

"Alfie Dean didn't care that you beat him up?"

Shawn tightened his arms around me. "He didn't care. In WT, all that mattered was your ability. That'swhy I managed to rise up the ranks extremely quickly."

Rising up the ranks extremely quickly, huh?

Shawn had said it so offhandedly, but it was hard to imagine how much he must have suffered backthen. All of a sudden, my heart started aching for this man.

I rubbed my head against his chest. "What a pity."

"What's a pity?" he asked in confusion.

"It's a pity that we met so late."

"It's not," he refuted.

He pulled me up, and I sat down properly on his lap as he said, "If we had met back then, I wouldn'thave had the power to protect you. We wouldn't have been able to stay together. Meeting you twoyears ago was the perfect timing. I had enough energy to entertain a boisterous woman."

Boisterous?!

I squeezed his cheeks. "I'm not boisterous."

"What you're doing now counts," Shawn chuckled.

I stared at him with an aggrieved look in my eyes. "You're mean."

"Are you being coy with me, Ray?!"

I grinned. "That's right. You noticed, huh?"

All of a sudden, he stood up with me in his arms. I hugged his neck and asked what he was doing."Something that adults do," he replied shamelessly.

I immediately begged for mercy. "I feel like talking to you."

"We've talked long enough."

It had only been a few minutes!

Shawn dropped me on the bed, and I quickly dashed back out to the couch on the balcony. Henarrowed his eyes and threatened, "I don't mind doing it on the balcony, babe…"

He always meant what he said.

I fled back into the bedroom.

"I'm tired, Shawn."

"You won't need to do anything."

"It's that time of the month for me, Shawn."

Shawn was speechless.

"It's true. I feel weak all over. Have mercy on me."

When it came to matters of pleasure, he never listened to me. Naturally, I couldn't escape my fate that

night as he had an answer for every excuse I came up with. In the end, I asked him, "What if I getpregnant?"

In all the times we did it, he didn't use a condom.

Though, I knew I wouldn't get pregnant again.

"Get an abortion," he answered in an icy tone.
