Chapter 155
Shawn''s bing more and more flirtatious now. I blushed as I hit him yfully while asking, "Do I
look good?"
Hearing this, he blinked before replying, "You do."
The ring itself had a very retro design as I thought it entuated the length of his fingers when he used
to wear it.
Now that he had given me the ring…
Maybe the next ring on his finger will be the one for when we marry.
I leapt with joy as I thought about this.
The thought of being married to him made me overjoyed.
Even though I was married once before, I had not been on dates like I was now and being truly loved
by someone like this.
It was around March when we came to know each other and now it was already November, so strictly
speaking, we had known each other for eight months now. During this period, it was always him that
protected me with all he had.
Saving my life time after time, Shawn even cured me of my cancer; he never asked for any form of
Besides the period where I became paranoid and angry at him for no reason, he did not harm, deceive
or distance himself from me.
He was so strong that nobody dared to cross him, yet still so dashing and charismatic that nobody
could resist his charms; his protection was warm like the all-epassing mother nature.
He even could think from my standpoint as he never argued with me or pushed me away in a fit of
rage. Possessing almost no negativity, he was almost perfect. Now, he had be my man.
Even till now, I believed that it was pure luck of mine that led me to him.
Holding his hand tightly, we walked out of the shop where he then followed me into the older parts of
the city.
Camellias were aplenty here as the white petals juxtaposed with the pink ones.
Still holding onto his hand, we went into the flower field before I handed my phone to him. "Here, take
some photos of me," I requested with a smile.
As he was not used to doing this, Shawn then asked in confusion, "Which app should I use?"
"The stock camera," I replied.
"Don''t you girls use all sorts of apps with filters on it?"
He caught me speechless.
Even though I did say to use the original camera, in the end, I still went over to locate the specific filter
app.
Posing alluringly, I even turned around and showed my bareback while touching my shoulder with my
hand to seductively look at him.
After that, I sent the picture to May and she replied, "You''re just openly inviting him to make a move on
you at this point."
She also added that I looked like a subus.
As much as I thought it sounded like an exaggeration, there was also a hint of truth in what she said
because when Shawn returned my phone, he suddenly hugged and gave me a French kiss while
caressing my back.
Shewn''s bing more end more flirtetious now. I blushed es I hit him pleyfully while esking, "Do I
look good?"
Heering this, he blinked before replying, "You do."
The ring itself hed e very retro design es I thought it entueted the length of his fingers when he used
to weer it.

Meybe the next ring on his finger will be the one for when we merry.

ceressing my beck.
Though this was not the first time we locked lips, I still felt a bit woozy since I kept imagining him naked.
Thinking that I might be in over my head, I then told this to May. In return, she wisely announced,
"Congrattions, you finally know what being lovesick is like!"
Lovesick…
My heart would beat wildly just by being near him, so one could only imagine how I must feel when we
were being intimate.
Being together with him was really a perfect experience.
It was like experiencing puppy love all over again.
The camellias were in bloom that day. As Shawn took off his coat before dropping it onto the ground,
he was all over me before I could even take my clothes off.
After the deed was done, he then said guiltily, "Sorry, I couldn''t hold in it any longer."
While wearing my undergarments, I saw that he was somewhat blushing, so I held his arm. Then, I
shook and smiled. "Well, I couldn’t either. Fortunately, nobody passed by."
Hearing this, he then gently exined, "I''ve already bought thisnd, so it''s private now. No one’s
allowed ess here without permission."
No wonder he was so eager.
It turned out that we were in his territory.
Then, Shawn and I walked around the old city for two hours, in which we stopped by a lot of shops; he
also bought me a lot of small trinkets.
Seeing as the sky slowly darkened, we returned to the car with the trinkets in our hands before he
leaned over to help me fasten my seatbelt.
It was already past 7.00PM when we arrived back at the mansion. Even though it was raining and the
sky was already dark, there was still a crowd standing at the entrance, looking as if they were waiting
for someone to return.
Perhaps it was because of my luck since it was raining both times I came to the Xenos'' Vi. Still, there
was a stark difference between the slight drizzle today and the thunderstorm that night, seeing I could
still make out the vi in the rain.
My return this time was also vastly different fromst time as all the members from the family were
waiting for the return of their head.
Shawn got out of the car while he insisted I wait first. The moment he opened the door, someone was
already there with an umbre in hand, after which Shawn took it.
Ignoring the people who were waiting for him, he personally held the umbre while opening my door.
Looking at him, he extended his arm out to me.
With a deep gaze in his eyes, the drizzle somewhat emphasized the man''s act of solitude.
On the contrary, his actions were heart-warming; he looked like a man who was ready to take good
care of me.
Though this was not the first time we locked lips, I still felt a bit woozy since I kept imagining him naked.
Despite the entire presence of the Xenos Family behind him, he did not care to hide his intentions.
He had always treated me the best he could.
I then reached out and held his hand with a smile.
After getting out of the car, I immediately saw Anna as well as Shawn''s fiancé, also known as the one
who touted herself as the family head''s wife.
Seeing how intimate Shawn was treating me, she did not have even a shred of jealousy on her face.
Instead, she looked elegant as ever with her fair skin.
Now that I took a look at them, the women of the Xenos Family were in quite a pitiful state as all the
elders had to stand here to wee their junior—me.
On top of that, they were all wearing full dresses with the colors ranging from pale white, dark gray,
ck, dark green, making it look like a designer''s show.
Compared to their muted get-up, my revealing outfit paired with my bold makeup made us look like we
were people from two different worlds.
Standing in front of them was a woman in a ck dress with a lily embroidered on it. Calling Shawn, I
remembered that she was the same woman holding the umbre that I saw upstairs that night.
So, she must be the sister of Shawn’s biological mom, who is his mother by name I guess.
Seeing Shawn nod, she then turned her attention to me and weed me elegantly. "You must be
Ree. Shawn mentioned you a few times, so I''m d to finally see you today."
With a passionate tone, she could not be more different than the woman that vowed to never let us be
together.
Could Shawn’s threat the other night have worked and she was treating me like she was treating
Shawn, all because she was afraid that she might lose him?!
If that’s the case, then the woman in front of me is actually quite pitiful.
Smiling politely as I acknowledged her, "Hello, Mrs. Xenos."
"Hello. Rest for now. We''ll be eatingter."
Shawn, who did not greet them, only held my waist instead before bringing me far into the residence.
Seeing how nobody followed us, I then secretly asked him, "How many days are we staying here for?"
"Two to three days. We can leave anytime if you''re tired of this."
Nodding as I stated, "She''s treating me very kindly."
Shawn knew that I was talking about his mother.
"Now that my father is in this state and my blood mom has left the family, I''m the only one she can rely
on," he exined as he patted my head out of habit.
After a pause, Shawn then continued, "She treats me quite alright, so I do intend to take care of her
after she gets old as long as she doesn''t get used by other people."
The curious me followed up by asking, "Who do you mean by other people?"
