    Chapter 636 Our Daughter Looks Like You


    That afternoon seemed to drag on forever, but it was bearable because having someone to chat with


    made it more bearable. By the time evening approached, most of the people who came to pay their


    condolences had left. Only a few members of the W Organization remained.


    Shawn arrivedte, but at least he made it. Otherwise, Aimes would surely throw a tantrum and give all


    of us a hard time. Thinking about Aimes'' temper, I could not help but feel sorry for Kevin. However,


    since he had chosen to be with Aimes, he must be able to handle his temper. Maybe Kevin even found


    enjoyment in it!


    When Shawn arrived, he walked straight up to me. The four of us were sitting in front of my room, each


    on a stool, chatting and having snacks. When he approached, Umbre stood up and greeted him, "Mr.


    Xenos!" Shawn responded, "I haven''t seen you in years."


    Umbre smiled and exined. "I''ve been living a low-profile life in a small country. My youngest


    daughter was born justst month. If it weren''t for Meredith''s funeral, I might never have the chance to


    see you again."


    Shawn nodded coldly as an acknowledgment. He then turned to me and asked, "Have you been


    waiting for a long time? Wait here for two more minutes, and I''ll take you home."


    I obediently nodded, and Shawn left.


    Kevin also left with him.


    After Shawn left, Colin said, "Shawn acted as if I was transparent. Oh well, I''m leaving."


    I asked while munching on the snacks, "Where are you going?"


    "Nowhere in particr, just wandering around aimlessly. When I get tired of it, I''ll go and find K. But


    there''s no point finding K. I envy Shawn."


    I was puzzled and asked, "Why are you suddenly envious of him?"


    "I also envy Umbre. You guys have all settled down and started families. You guys are no longer


    alone, but I''m still a wandering old soul!"


    I corrected him. "That''s not how you use the phrase ''wandering old soul.''"


    Full of curiosity, Colin asked, "Did I use the phrase incorrectly?"


    I made something up on the spot and said, "You''re a lone warrior."


    "That''s indeed more interesting than being a wandering old soul."


    Umbre asked him with concern, "Don''t you n to settle down? You''re already 37 years old. It''s time


    to settle down with a woman."


    Colin was surprised and asked, "I''m 37?"


    "Don''t you remember how old you are?"


    Colin sighed as he said, "I forgot. After all these years of ups and downs, how can I remember such


    details? Since you say that I''m 37, then that''s probably right. But am I really that old?"


    Umbre rolled his eyes at Colin and asked, "Don''t you n on getting married?"


    Colin denied. "Marriage means no freedom. I don''t n on settling down, but I can find a woman to


    have a child."


    Umbre responded directly, "Forget about it. Don''t harm any more girls. You''ve probably caused


    enough trouble for countless girls over the years."


    Colin sneered, "Will I be any worse than Robert?"


    I became interested and asked, "Do you know Robert?"


    Mentioning Robert reminded me of Pet.


    She used to be known as Robina.


    But she changed her nameter.


    Did she change her name to avoid Robert?


    "We''re all in the same social circle, so it''s hard not to know each other. Robert is far worse than me. I


    don''t care about a woman''s virginity, but Robert has a strong obsession with it. He only sleeps with


    virgins. Not just one, but multiple at a time! And he never sleeps with the same woman again. When it


    comes to harming girls, he surpasses me in every way!"


    I was well aware of Robert''s notorious behavior.


    "Well, I''m leaving."


    After that, Colin left.


    Umbre also bid farewell to me and left.


    A few minutester, Shawn came out of the main hall and came straight to my side. I stood up and


    asked, "Are we going home?"


    "Yes. I have to work overtimeter."


    I never disturb him when he was busy.


    "Oh, is Kevin not leaving with us?"


    Shawn said indifferently, "Don''t worry about him."


    I left with Shawn. In the car, he noticed that I was feeling down and put his arm around my shoulder,


    and I said, "I know you''ve been bored these few days. After I deal with the matters here, we''ll go back


    to Bryxton, and I''ll spend more time with you."


    Shawn''s voice was warm and gentle.


    I shook my head. "It''s not because I''m bored."


    Shawn used his slender fingers to tidy up my messy hair and lightly brushed my cheek, asking, "What''s


    the matter then?"


    "I want to help you. Can I join you at work tomorrow? I can help. Don''t underestimate me, Shawn. I


    used to support the Felix Family on my own. I can handle the tasks that you''re doing."


    Shawn smiled warmly and asked, "Are you that capable?"


    "I have a good understanding of finance, management, and investments."


    Shawn said, "You''re indeed very capable."


    "So, will you take me with you tomorrow?"


    Shawn replied warmly, "Let me think about it."


    Is there a need to think about it again?


    "Do you think I''m flighty?"


    Shawn replied, "Never."


    "Oh."


    "Ray, take care of the two children in the morning, and thene find me at thepany in the


    afternoon. I''ll teach you how to be a manager, alright?"


    After a pause, Shawn added, "A manager of the Xenos Family."


    "Almost all the affairs are handled by Anthony." I covered my face.


    "Yes, but you should have to understand what''s going on as well," Shawn replied.


    Confidently, I said, "I know how to be a manager."


    "I know you do. I''ll just be sharing some of my experiences with you," he said.


    I hugged Shawn''s neck and kissed his cheek. "Don''t spend too much time teaching me. I genuinely


    want to lessen your burden."


    Shawn''s eyes flickered. "I don''t want you to spend too much time on work. If you''re willing to assist me,


    I''m more than happy, but I don''t want you to be tired because of me."


    Shawn was worried that I would be tired.


    I leaned on his shoulder. "I won''t be tired."


    He hugged me and suddenly said, "Witch."


    His palm slowly rubbed against my lower back.


    "What''s wrong?" I asked.


    His voice became husky. "Don''t move. Let me hug you."


    Shawn sent me back to the vi and was about to leave when I asked him in anticipation, "Stay and


    have dinner with us. It''s also nice to spend time with the children. I''ll cookter. What do you want to


    eat tonight?"

    Shawn was silent for a moment and then said, "Up to you."


    He agreed to stay for dinner.


    After he got out of the car, I linked my arm with his, and we walked back to the vi. Eins and Zwei


    came to greet us. I took Skyler from the nanny''s arms and handed him to Shawn. Shawn ced him in


    his embrace then took River from the nanny''s arms as he said, "You may leave. We''ll take care of the


    children."


    The two nannies went to the backyard. I did not see Em when I entered. He was probably in his


    room. I wanted to call him downstairs, but I did not want to disturb him. I nned to call him when the


    meal is ready.


    I went to the kitchen to cook while Shawn looked after the children in the living room. asionally, I


    stole nces at them. He was not too affectionate with the children, but he was not cold either. River


    crawled by his feet, yfully tugging at his pants with her tiny hands. He bent down slightly, seemingly


    observing her, while Skyler happily yed with his pacifier.


    I averted my gaze and focused on cooking. When it was almost done, I heard Shawn suddenly say,


    "Our daughter looks like you."


    So he had been observing her?
