Chapter 414
When Sharon was almost done ying with the children, Mario reminded her, "Miss Cruz, it''s time.
We should head back."
Even though she was reluctant to leave, Sharon still replied convincingly, "Okay, let''s go then." Just
as she was about to leave, she saw something from the corner of her eye. Pointing at a small
vendor in a distance, she suddenly asked, "Are they selling coconut water?"
"Yes, coconuts are popr in our country, so you can see these little merchants everywhere. Would
you like some coconut water, Miss Cruz?"
Sharon licked her lips. "Would that be okay?"
Withughter, Mario said, "Why wouldn''t it be okay? Miss Cruz, please wait here. I''ll buy you one."
"Thank you."
"You''re wee."
Right after saying that, he turned around and walked towards the small vendors in the distance.
Without any hesitation, Sharon used all her strength to roll her wheelchair towards the shops across
the street.
However, there was a lot of traffic on the road. Sharon gritted her teeth and risked her life to find an
opportunity to rush across the street. The sounds of vuvuzs honking and tires screeching rang
one after another.
Sharon felt that she was lucky enough to safely sift through the stream of carriages to the other side
of the street.
Prior to this, she learned a little bit of the localnguage from Mario, and her vocabry was
definitely good enough for her to borrow a phone from the shopkeeper. At once she asked, "Can
you lend me your phone? Please, I will pay you some money. I want to make a phone call, please."
The owner of the shop was a 40-year-old woman. She looked at Sharon for a while and nodded
with hesitation.
Excited, Sharon was about to burst into tears. "Thank you..."
As soon as Mario arrived in front of the small vendor, he heard a voice from behind him. The vendor
pointed behind him and let out a loud cry. "That woman must be crazy!"
When Mario turned to take a look, he was so frightened that his heart nearly jumped out of his chest
as he shouted, "Miss Cruz!" Dropping the coconut juice, he ran towards her frantically with a ghastly
look on his face. Sharon wanted to cross over to the other side so bad that she was even risking her
life. No matter how difficult it was, it did not seem to stop her.
Mario was in a daze as he looked at Sharon, and for a moment, he didn''t know what to do.
As soon as Sharon got the phone, she immediately dialed the familiar number, and tears almost fell
from her eyes.
"Beep beep beep..."
There was a long busy tone and a long waiting period.
She was trembling all over, excited and overwhelmed. She kept mumbling, "Pick up the phone,
quick, pick up the phone..."
In the next second, Sharon felt someone exert strength on her wrist and her heart sank.
She knew that she was finished. If she missed out on this opportunity, then she probably would not
have another chance like this in the future.
Despite not knowing whether the phone was connected, she shouted to the other end of the phone,
"Stanley,e and save me!"
As soon as she finished saying those words, the phone was snatched away from her hand, and the
phone was hung up.
She looked up in a daze, only to see that Shawn had a faint smile across his face, but it was
obvious his eyes harbored anger.
Sharon felt like she had failed. Her body stiffened.
At the same time, Shawn was also staring at her.
The two kept staring at each other. Sharon''s body was so tensed up when she saw the rage in
Shawn''s eyes; she felt that she might die in the next second.
However, Shawnughed and said, "You are really naughty. I haven''t seen you for just a few days,
but you managed to coax Mario to give in to your wishes."
With a nk expression, Sharon looked at him.
"You didn''t fully utilize this one chance. Do you think there''ll be a next time?" Shawn pointed to the
phone with a cold smile. "Since you''ve done this, I''ll only be more strict with you!"
A gush of despair filled Sharon''s heart, so much so that she covered her face and began to cry.
Yes, she wasted her only chance.
Then, Shawn bent down and picked her up. With a low voice, he whispered into her ear, "Why are
you crying? I haven''t said anything yet. Why are you crying? Don''t cry."
Sharon cried so hard that she couldn''t even control herself.
Why? Why did the heavens disappoint her, again?
"William, take care of it." Shawn was shaken by her tears, so he gave orders and carried her away.
When they arrived back home, Shawnid her down on the bed. Her emotions had also calmed
down then, giving Shawn a chance to catch his breath. He seemed to be panting, which made
Sharon look at him. With a smile, Shawn exined, "My injury has just healed, that''s why I''m
panting. It''s not because you''re too heavy."
Sharon pursed her lips and nced at his chest.
Three days ago, he used her hand and stabbed the dagger into his chest bit by bit. At that time,
there was so much blood, and she was so scared that she could not sleep all night.
For three days, he hadn''te back, and there hadn''t been any news of him. It was Mario who had
been taking care of her.
As her n was interrupted by Shawn, she wasn''t exactly pleased with him and sneered, "I thought
you died in the hospital!"
Shawn sat down beside her and said in a faint voice, "The doctor said that if I were five minutes
later, I would have died. Maybe it wasn''t my time to die yet."
Sharon was speechless.
Biting her lips, she turned her face away. She couldn''t be bothered to pay attention to him.
Meanwhile, Shawn was still smiling. "Aren''t you going to exin what you were trying to do just
now?"
In this instance, Sharon''s eyes shed as she turned her head and stared straight at him. "Shawn,
Stanley answered when I made the call. He''ll being here very soon!"
But actually, Sharon didn''t know whether the call was connected or not. She did not manage to hear
a voice from the other end of the phone and just wanted to use an excuse to scare him.
Shawn stared at her with his dark eyes, trying hard to figure out which part that she said was true
and which wasn''t.
A momentter, he withdrew his eyes and said lightly, "I guess that means we have to move to a
new ce. If you had made a call out, then this ce is not safe."
"Wh-what?"
Immediately, Sharon''s eyes widened in disbelief at what she just heard.
"I''m going to pack up, and we''ll set off in half an hour."
"Shawn!"

Furious, Sharon asked. "What exactly are you trying to do? Are you going to imprison me for the
rest of my life? Even though I can''t move my legs right now, that doesn''t mean that it will stay this
way forever. As soon as my legs are fine, that will be the day I leave! I swear I will kill you when I
leave!"
Towards the end, she was already clenching her teeth.
Shawn stood in front of the window, the sun shining behind him, epassing him. Sharon could
not see his expression but heard him say softly, "Take my life if you want. In fact, didn''t you just take
it three days ago? Sharon, I don''t care if you hit me next time; even if you want to kill me, I will
oblige."
Sharon looked at him in a daze, her lips squirming, but not a single word came out of her mouth.
This... mad man!
Shawn was crazy and stubborn. He would never give up whoever and whatever he wanted for
himself. Now, Sharon was the woman he wanted the most.
He would never give her up unless he died.
