Reborn: Leave Before Their Wedding Chapter 24
Shawn never saw Wendy again.He heard she sold her company. After that, no one knew where she went.Martin and Caroline tried to contact him too. Shawn said nothing. He simply mailed the signed agreement severing their ties back to them.It still hurt, but he had no intention of letting them back into his life.That part of his life felt long behind him.A year later, Shawn had a small design studio of his own.He also had a few close friends who shared his ambitions.He worked even harder than he did at his old company and fulfilled a dream he once thought was out of reach.He felt deeply content.On the day his studio opened, he planned to celebrate with Lucy, as he always did when he had good news.He knocked on her door, but no one answered.He called her several times. She didn’t pick up.Then a news alert appeared on his phone. A black Pagani was rear-ended while speeding.The driver died at the scene.Shawn’s heart clenched.Lucy received a black Pagani for her twenty-fifth bi

By the time Shawn and Lucy left the supermarket, the rain had stopped.They walked slowly toward the apartment building, each carrying a heavy bag of groceries.The afternoon felt peaceful.Then Shawn saw a familiar figure waiting outside their building.The smile faded from his face.He never imagined the person who would come looking for him would be Wendy.Yet somehow, she found him.Lucy noticed the change in his expression. She glanced at Wendy and instinctively stepped in front of Shawn.Wendy looked forward to seeing him.But when she saw a woman beside him, her face darkened.The closer she came, the angrier she grew.Wendy strode toward Lucy, but Shawn stepped between them.“Who are you?” Wendy demanded.“Shouldn’t I be asking you that?” Lucy replied.Wendy bristled at being stopped.She glanced at Shawn.Then she forced herself to hold back her anger.Lucy ignored Wendy’s hostility and turned to Shawn.“Shawn, do you know her?”He nodded.Concern filled Lucy’s eyes.“I’m fine
Reborn: Leave Before Their Wedding Chapter 22
When Wendy wasn’t searching for Shawn, she spent her time at the house where she used to live.The Stone family cast her aside, so the house was in poor condition.The roof sometimes leaked when it rained, leaving the rooms damp.She still liked being there. It reminded her of Shawn.That soothed her restless heart.Wendy looked around the room. Everything felt both familiar and strange. Shawn’s presence made the house feel warm in her memory, but she had never seen any of it before.She only knew where things were because he patiently guided her through the rooms, again and again.He was a source of hope during the darkest time of her life.Wendy loved him for more than the romance between them. She loved the person he was.He worried she might fall, so he taught her how to move safely around the house.He arranged things the way she liked them so they would be easy for her to reach.She couldn’t see his love for her, but she felt it.Memories washed over Wendy.Tears slipped down her

Even after dealing with Ethan and his parents, Wendy’s anger hadn’t faded.Shawn no longer belonged to the Yates family, so she saw no reason to hold back against them.While they were confined, she had people buy large amounts of Yates Group stock and manipulate the prices on its orders.The prices fell so low that other companies boycotted Yates Group.Soon the company was shunned throughout the industry.Wendy made sure the three people in the basement heard about it.Martin was so distraught that he fainted. Caroline paced in panic.They had poured years of work into the company.Ethan was the only one who didn’t seem to care.The moment he saw Wendy, he began pleading.“Wendy, please let me out.“I know I was wrong. Don’t keep me here. I’m terrified. There are cockroaches and rats everywhere. I swear they’re biting my feet. Please let me out!”“You want out? Fine. But I’ll release either you or your parents. You decide.”Wendy’s voice was full of contempt.She seemed to be mocking

When the car reached the Stone family villa, Ethan wondered why no one came to open his door.He pushed it open himself and stepped out.Someone suddenly grabbed him and dragged him away.A thick black cloth covered his eyes.Fear seized him.“Who are you? Let me go!” Ethan shouted.“I’m Wendy Stone’s husband! You can’t do this to me!”His voice grew hoarse.The man holding him kicked him in the calf and snarled, “Shut up. If you want to live, do as you’re told!”Ethan stopped shouting. He didn’t dare make another sound.He didn’t know how much time passed.He only knew they took him into an enclosed, airless room.Then Wendy came over and pulled off his blindfold.Ethan shrank back.“What? Why are you so afraid of me? Is there something you feel guilty about?”Wendy gripped his chin and stared at him.Ethan’s guilt showed at once.“Wendy? Why are you here? Why did you have them tie me up?”“Do you really have no idea why?”Wendy tightened her grip as she spoke.Pain shot through Ethan

“Miss Stone, I have the information you asked me to investigate.”Wendy’s assistant placed a file on the desk.Wendy opened it and found hospital billing records.They showed that Ethan became gravely ill at the age of three and urgently needed umbilical cord blood to survive.Shawn was born to save him.Wendy’s fingers tightened around the papers.She always wondered why Martin and Caroline favored Ethan so openly. She never imagined this was why.The file also contained a phone with a damaged exterior.Wendy recognized it as the one Shawn used to carry.Her assistant used its call records to trace the SIM card’s last location.Then she gave the phone to a technician, who recovered its data.Only after that did she bring it to Wendy.Wendy hesitated at the screen asking for a four-digit passcode.She entered 0616.The phone unlocked with a chime.Tears filled her eyes.June 16 was her birthday.She looked further. Shawn signed out of his apps.Only a few photos and messages remained.
