"Shawn! Shawn!" Rachel repeatedly called out to Shawn while shaking her body. However, Shawn did not give any response.He kept looking at his feet blankly as if his soul was in another world. Rachel and everyone else noticed Shawn and became worried about Shawn's state.Lord Darius gulped. He was horrified when he saw Shawn like that. He was very worried that something was wrong in Shawn's head. In addition to his body being covered in wounds from being pierced by several irons, Shawn's head was also injured. If something happened to Shawn's sanity, then Lord Darius could not forgive himself and Shawn being like this made him start thinking badly about Shawn's brain health.Lord Darius tried to call out to Shawn. "Shawn, can you hear me?"Shawn didn't return any of the calls that were directed at him. It wasn't that Shawn couldn't hear him, but at the moment Shawn was immersed in the memories of the past that he had just gotten.In that memory, he found himself very small when he was
"Now you look calmer, Lord Darius." Alex said this while Lord Darius was sitting in his chair. Currently, they were in a room where there was no one but the two of them.Lord Darius gave a small smile. "Of course, Alex! I experienced great fear for two days when that young man did not open his eyes."Alex could understand how relieved his lord was. This was something Alex had also felt when his master was sick or had something bad happen. However, it was rare for Alex to see Lord Darius feel that way.Lord Darius' very introverted personality made him not really care about people who tried to get close to him. Because of something in the past, Lord Darius had developed a condition where he found it difficult to trust others. To make matters worse, all this time people were trying to get close to him because they had an agenda to ask for money and funding for their company. In the end, Lord Darius never got close to anyone. Alex was relieved that Lord Darius could now open up a bit of
Alex didn't have a chance to blink as he watched Lord Darius talk to the doctor. Right now he felt that it was probably beyond his capacity to predict what was going through his lord's mind. In fact, he did not even have the right words to describe how Lord Darius wanted to do such a thing. "Oh my..." Alex shook his head softly while muttering to himself. This behavior of Lord Darius made him confused. While in the room, he listened in detail to what Lord Darius and the doctor were talking about. After talking for more than twenty minutes, the doctor left the room. Alex immediately went to Lord Darius with a serious face. "Lord Darius, did you really do that?" Lord Darius immediately looked at Alex with raised eyebrows. "Yes, of course. You yourself said that Shawn looks like me, right?" Alex looked down slightly while scratching his neck. "I did, too... however, it seems a bit presumptuous." Lord Darius smiled with one side of his lips raised higher. "But isn't this better
Rachel's parents glared at the document without blinking. Unconsciously their mouths were grinning lustfully.Rachel's mother reached out her hand to grab the document. "Let me see it for a moment, Shawn."However, Shawn quickly pulled her away to keep the document in his hand. The grins of Rachel's mother, Verena and her father, Rico Doves, instantly faded. They glanced sharply at Shawn. To avoid embarrassment, they took a step back.Shawn saw that the name of the company was Compact Corp. Of course it was a name he recognized. A name that no one could possibly not know.Shawn did not expect that a multinational company like this would be given to him. For a moment Shawn froze, thinking that none of this was real. Even Rachel froze when she saw the name of the company on the document. Shawn's reaction made Lord Darius chuckle. "Why are you so surprised, Shawn?"Shawn gulped. He then glanced at Lord Darius. The old man just smiled like he was carefree. Shawn didn't know why he had co
"Isn't this weird?" Rachel said as she unwrapped the bandage that was wrapped around Shawn's hand. She glanced at Shawn in surprise with her round eyes.Shawn himself became confused at being looked at like that by Rachel. Usually Rachel looked at him with a stern and fierce gaze, but now that gaze was very round and also slightly plumped her lips. A cute gesture that Shawn almost never saw.Shawn raised his eyebrows. "What's weird, Rachel?"Rachel then touched Shawn's arm. Shawn could feel the warmth and softness of Rachel's skin. It was rare to have this kind of physical contact between them.Rachel exhaled. "You got a puncture wound on this arm. It pierced and scraped your skin and tore your flesh. Isn't it strange that it closed in just a few days?"Shawn gulped, he also didn't know what happened to his body that he had the ability to heal faster than other humans. As far as he was concerned, the only thing he could conclude was that his body's ability to regenerate faster was due
Everyone in the room didn't know what was going on as they looked at each other in confusion and Shawn even frowned as he glanced at Rachel. Rachel shrugged her shoulders because she didn't know what was going on either. Meanwhile, Lord Darius continued to cry while hugging Shawn tightly and did not want to let go as if he did not want to lose Shawn's touch.Lord Darius said with a sob. "Finally...finally...I can see you again... it's been so long since you left..."Shawn was getting confused. He felt the strength of the Lord hugging him. He could only return the hug while patting his back. "I'm not going anywhere, Lord Darius. After all, we just met yesterday."Lord Darius shook his head which made everyone even more clueless about this incident.Rachel wrinkled her forehead. "Lord Darius, you suddenly came into the house and acted like this. Did Shawn do something to you?"Rachel was a little suspicious, it was possible that Shawn had done something again to someone else.Shawn gla
Shawn gaped at that. "You're lying, aren't you?"Shawn's eyes fluttered as he asked. What should Shawn do? During the time he lived with his foster family, Shawn hardly ever felt the warmth of family. When he was little he was often bullied by Ryan and his friends, when he grew up he was always blackmailed by his adoptive mother. Everything was so hard for Shawn to go through until he finally met Rachel and got a system in his life. With the system, at least Shawn can get a better life even though he doesn't get the warmth of family.As for this one, suddenly someone came to Shawn and said that he was Shawn's family, of course Shawn didn't know how to respond to this. Shawn looked into the old man's eyes. Their eyes met and he could see how the old man's eyes glazed over as he looked at Shawn. There was a deep longing there, to the point that Shawn felt the coldness of loneliness creeping into his heart.Lord Darius smiled. "I did not lie, you are my grandson, Shawn."The warm words
"I hope you come to a decision soon, Shawn." Lord Darius smiled as he looked back. Then he and Alex stepped through the exit. Shawn continued to watch his grandfather's departure with mixed feelings.The sound of a car rumbled away from Shawn's porch towards the gate outside. The old man was completely gone from Shawn's house, leaving Shawn with his heart still pounding and racing. He felt that everything that was happening was unreal.Shawn closed the door and turned around. His steps stopped immediately when he saw Rachel in front of him. She looked directly into Shawn's eyes with her eyebrows arched downwards. "I didn't expect..."A little dazed, Shawn looked at the beautiful woman without giving any response. Shawn was pensive as he continued to stand there.Rachel tilted her head slightly. "You're really surprising. I didn't expect that my ugly, tacky, and poor husband would turn out to be someone with a great background. I really didn't expect it at all. Is this a stroke of luck
