Sean Morris laid a thick quilt on the foam mat of the children's room. "Emlyn, let's sleep here with Jenna tonight. We'll protect her and she'll be so happy to see us when she wakes up tomorrow. What do you say?"Emlyn, you know, I can't live without you and Jenna. You've become an indispensable part of my life."Hearing Sean's soothing voice, Emlyn Young finally fell asleep. She huddled up in his arms, feeling more at ease than ever.Sean had always known that there would be a confrontation with Hunter when he had planned everything. He just hadn't expected that it would come so soon. He had never wanted to return to this country, but Jenna had been weak as a premature infant. She was almost two years old but she still couldn't walk. Moreover, she had developed an allergy abroad. They found out that she could only live in An City.He had wanted to take Emlyn away with him, but if anything happened to Jenna, Emlyn would only become even more ill.He simply gave up and tried to enj
"I don't want you to wait on me hand and foot. I just want you to stay by my side. We have to live well together, Emlyn, you promised me that you would give me a chance. I cannot live without you. I will go mad. I will wait for you. I will wait until you are willing to accept me. I have said it before that I will not marry anyone else but you."Emlyn hummed in agreement, her voice all choked up. The person she had let down the most was Sean.The next day was bright and sunny. Emlyn crawled on the floor with Jenna. Jenna had been born with a congenital condition that caused underdevelopment. Even though her speech was pretty normal, she could not walk and was not too steady even when she stood up. Emlyn could only practice crawling with her.Jenna did not know that she was different from other children. She chuckled brightly as she crawled.Emlyn's phone rang. She did not even look at the caller ID and picked up the call. She asked softly, "Sean, are you on the way back? I'll ask th
Hunter Shield laughed bitterly and said, "Ha, have you ever let me off? I haven't slept well. Will you let me off if I don't touch Sean Morris? I thought you were dead and I dreamt of you every night. I dreamt that you came back and I dreamt that you left. I dreamt that you married someone else and had children despite how much that pained me. I dreamt that you were alive but died in my arms. I couldn't fall asleep again after waking up. You say that you won't let me off. Alright then, come back to me and you can do whatever you want to me.""I won't go back there ever again. I have not loved you for a long while.""But I... love you.""A single-sided love will not last.""I... don't care whether you love me or not." Hunter remembered that this was what Emlyn Young had told him that day. She had said that she did not care whether he loved her or not.He now knew that the person who he loved was really silly."Hunter Shield!"Hunter breathed in deeply and said, "Emlyn, let me tel
Chapter 30Trevor Ching had heard Hunter Shield mention that Emlyn Young cared a lot for her child. That was why he had been ordered not to even touch the child. However, if Trevor were to complete his task, he had to scare Emlyn even if he could not touch the child.Emlyn hugged Jenna tightly with guarded eyes. She backed away and said, "Trevor, we are all acquaintances! Don't do anything to my child!"Trevor was finally certain that the woman in front of him was Emlyn Young. She had changed too much and he felt that she was no longer the same person. Would Hunter like this Emlyn? If he did, then what was the point of training Eve to behave how Emlyn had in the past?Trevor sighed and said, "Emlyn, we grew up together and I, more than any of our other friends, hope that you will lead a good life. It's true. But have some pity for Hunter. He has led a miserable life over the past year. Even I feel sorry for him."Emlyn did not react at all. Trevor intentionally reached out to touc
Hunter Shield's cold laughter sounded a little cruel as he said, "I'm making things up? Sean, Emlyn Young lost her world when she lost her mother. If she knew that Ruby Worth had secretly sent her twin sister away and you found out about it but did not reunite them and instead used her sister's death to conceal the fact that Emlyn was still alive. How much do you think she would hate you for it? That's the only blood-related sister she had left to her from her mother!"Sean Morris lowered his head and tugged at his hair forcefully. He had never imagined that Hunter would have already investigated so thoroughly and he did not want or dare to continue listening to Hunter.Hunter exhaled and said, "Emlyn's younger sister could have given birth to her child safely, but you killed her and her unborn child for your own desires. Don't you ever have nightmares?"Sean put his hands over his head and shook violently, saying, "Stop talking! Stop talking!"Hunter continued, "Sean Morris, if th
Sean could tell from Hunter's voice that Emlyn had not told Hunter that Jenna was Hunter's daughter. She must have had her reasons for doing so.It was no wonder that Hunter could not tell. Jenna was developmentally delayed. She was almost two but could only stand holding on to the walls and did not know how to walk.Sean stood up, picked up a stool, and threw it at the desk when he saw Hunter leaving his room. Everything that had been on the desk was swept onto the ground.He tipped his head backward and screamed, the sound echoed throughout the villa, filled with hatred and pain.He did not want to give up but he also did not dare to imagine how much Emlyn would hate him if she were to find out what he had done. What he was truly afraid of was hurting Emlyn a second time.If Hunter truly loved Emlyn, perhaps he might hide this from her forever.Sean rushed out and screamed when he saw that Hunter and his bodyguards were almost at the door. "Hunter Shield!"Hunter paused for a
After buying a house, Hunter Shield built a slide and a swing for children in the garden outside the villa house to please Jenna and ingratiate himself to Emlyn Young. Disney characters filled the garden.However, no matter what he did, Emlyn's coldness and aloofness made him feel as if he was falling short.However, they had a tacit agreement not to mention a single word of the pain and love between them in the past.Emlyn found it too painful to recall her infatuation and the hurt that had been inflicted on her while Hunter was too ashamed to remember it. He knew that he had let Emlyn down.Emlyn wanted to leave. Every day that she spent together with Hunter made her heart hurt. The pain haunted her in her dreams.However, Hunter seemed to have caged her in. She could not have left the place even if she had wings.Furthermore, she could not go anywhere else but An City.Hunter had wanted to drift asleep with Emlyn in his arms several times. However, every time Emlyn looked at
Hunter Shield thought that he would be happy once Emlyn Young agreed to his request. However, he was not. Emlyn was not willing to leave hers and Sean Morris's child behind but was willing to give up her child with him. She must really hate him.That afternoon, Hunter took Jenna for a swim while Emlyn was taking a nap. Hunter floated in the water, placing the child on his chest. Jenna flapped her hands happily in the water and laughed gayly.Jenna kicked her little legs around in the water as Hunter looked at her long lashes and puckered lips. She looked just like Emlyn did as a child.He should have a child with Emlyn. However, compared to a child, Emlyn was more important."Jenna, say Daddy.""Daddy." Jenna laughed happily. Hunter lifted the child by her armpits and let her float in the water, kicking her legs wildly.Hunter looked at Jenna and said, "Shall Daddy teach you how to dive?"Jenna nodded."Jenna, breathe like Daddy!" Hunter shouted before plunging the child into t
