“Shannon, please, I beg you. Please look at me, will you?”Her body was too horrible to look at. The many cuts and wounds were nauseating, but Sean did not think so. He pulled her body into a tight grasp without any revulsion. There was only love.He could not forget the look in her eyes when he carried Quinn away.There was no light, only hollowness. The doctors said that her depression was getting worse. Even if she woke up, she would not stop hurting herself. Sean waited for Quinn’s condition to become stable before going back to Shannon. He was ready to commit himself to her and keep her company until she became hopeful about life again.What he had not realized then was that deleting the voice recording was the final straw.“Shannon...”In anguish, he whimpered. He regretted his actions so terribly, but no amount of remorse could turn back time. She could never be alive once more.“Shannon, please, I beg you. Please wake up, will you? Please?”The reporters were ready to
Sean was out of his mind as he refused to drink and eat; he only held Shannon’s dead body in his embrace, tightly. This drove Sam to knock Sean unconscious and secretly transport the body away for cremation as he was worried that Shannon’s corpse would begin to decompose. In fact, Sam thought that Sean would go after him when he was awake because he made his own decision to send Shannon’s dead body away for cremation without his permission. Surprisingly, Sean did not mention the dead body at all.Sean worked extremely hard as if he was a robot since Ford Group had gotten a few big deals from its clients. However, Sean had become cold to the people around him and no one had the courage to be close to him. Sam often saw Sean in an idle state. He did not like to smile since a long time ago, but it was even worse now after Shannon’s departure.Certainly, Sam knew that Sean was still alive as his heart was still beating. However, Sean was like a zombie to Sam; a zombie without his so
Julio finally regained his senses and held Shannon’s hand tightly. “Silly girl, why would I not marry you!?”In fact, Julio was anxious about their return too. Half a year ago, he worked so hard to take Shannon away just to shape her into his weapon for revenge. He just wanted to use her.He used to have good feelings toward Shannon, however, those feelings were only to the extent of sibling love. To his surprise, he realized that his feelings toward Shannon have slowly evolved into feelings of romance within the last six months. He realized that he began to feel worried. He was fearful that Shannon would eventually find out the truth, and that she would then hate him and leave him.Unknowingly, Julio applied a larger force as he held Shannon’s hand. No, he would never let her go! He could hypnotize her once again since he tried it before and succeeded. He could continue to do the same again even if her memories recover one day.He would leave with her and never come back again o
“Shannon, everyone told me that you’re dead, but I don’t believe it! I knew you’d never leave me! Shannon, my little precious…”“Hey Sean, she is not Shannon!” Julio separated Sean and Shannon. He continued as he pulled Shannon back into his embrace, “She is Coco Jones, your sister-in-law.”“This is impossible!” Apparently, Sean refused to believe what Julio said. She was Shannon, his Shannon; he would not make such a mistake!Many women in Linn tried to seduce Sean since Shannon left the world; some were even willing to undergo plastic surgery to change their facial features to look like Shannon. Unfortunately, one’s gaze was irreplaceable even though all other facial features looked the same. He could easily recognize with a single glance. He remembered Shannon’s gaze. He was very certain that the woman in front of him was Shannon even though the scar on her face was completely invisible!“Shannon, where have you been the past six months? I miss you so much.”Sean stretched
Sean felt a sharp pain in his chest as if he was stabbed by a knife; he could not believe that Shannon kissed Julio!Every action between the two of them seemed so natural. Perhaps, that was how they interacted every day when they were together!?Sean's eyes were covered by numerous blood capillaries as the scene was too irritating to his eyes. He was lost in his own thoughts until Julio carried Shannon up to the second floor.John helplessly stood at the corner with tears filling up his eyes. He was so excited when he regained his consciousness. “Mom is still alive! She is back!”Unfortunately, there was another man beside his mother, and she no longer remembered him and his father!It made sense to him that his mother could not recognize his father since he had been so ruthless to her. However, how could his mother not recognize him!John was depressed and felt like an abandoned little puppy. Mom, I’m your little baby John. Why did you leave me...Once they entered the room,
Shannon was in great shock as she thought that it was Julio who went after her. Instantly, she lifted her head, and her eyes met an attractive dark gaze. It was Sean! “Let go of me, Sean!”Shannon wanted to kill him as she thought about her dead child.In fact, Shannon could not recall the exact cause of her child’s death. However, subconsciously, she felt a sharp pain at her lower abdomen once she saw Sean. It felt as though someone was slicing her with a few knives.“No, I’ll never let you go! Never…”Sean kissed Shannon even harder, their lips and tongues were clinging together, and he was drowning in fantasy. He wished that he could just hold her in his embrace and kiss her until the end of time. To her surprise, Sean kissed her with greater passion even after she struggled. He was driving her crazy!Then, she lifted her leg and stepped on Sean’s foot! Sean was in pain, but he did not even want to let her go.What was more mind-blowing was that Shannon realized that she e
Sean’s prestige was almost as high as Mr. Ford Sr. The aggressive look in his eyes was a clear warning to the servants, so none of them dared to speak a word to Julio about his whereabouts.Openly, he walked into the house with his so-called sister-in-law. He carried her on his shoulder. He walked right into their room. Shannon swept her eyes across the room and saw the photo that was placed on the bedside table.It was a photo taken when she celebrated her 18th birthday.In the photo, a woman that looked just like her had nestled her head on his shoulder, grinning cheerfully. He seemed faintly aloof like he always did, but the way he looked at her was full of great fondness.For some reason, she was drawn to the photo almost instantaneously. With careful steps, she walked towards the bedside table and pondered the woman’s identity. Who was this woman that looked just the same as her?Ever since they met, Sean had been addressing her as Shannon, so she quickly knew that the woma
Sean clearly saw every detail of her well-thought plan.He acted like he was not looking, but little did she know that she was the only thing that he could see. His eyes had lingered on her throughout the call.Besides, how could he keep his eyes away from her?He missed her so much that it hurt. The long separation had made him realize that the only thing that he wanted to do was to take a good look at her.He could actually recognize the foil packaging of the pill, as he was once introduced to it by Sam Lowe’s friend, who was a medical-genius and freak. Sam’s friend was very interested in producing all kinds of medicine, and that was how Sean came to know about the pill.Once swallowed, his life would be over!Shannon, I’ll take anything that you want me to take. I don’t care if it’s arsenic, or some other deadly poison, as long as that’s what you want.Sean had ended the call for quite a while now, but he did not want her to be skeptical about him, so he waited for her to cal
