My Love for You Broke Me

Chapter 541

The injury was not serious, but it was still a bullet wound, after all. Three hours passed when the doctor successfully

removed the bullet from below my abdomen. When they pushed me out of the operating room, I saw Shawn, who

had been waiting for me outside the whole time.

His expression was haggard, and his eyes were red-rimmed. The moment he saw me come out, he hurried over to

my side and asked, "Does it hurt?" He was concerned about whether my wound was aching.

With a grin, I answered, "It hurts a little, but it's okay."

After he heard that, he heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he bent down and gently landed a kiss on my forehead before

uttering softly, "It's all my fault that you were injured. When you recover, you can ask me to do anything as an

atonement."

Shawn was a tough man who rarely showed his soft or weak side, but he directed all of these to me. So, even

though I was slightly unhappy about what LG said, seeing how anxious he was made it all disappear and even arose

some comfort in me. I love him, without a doubt.

Suddenly, I remembered the scene where I first met him. He said I was ugly, but he was the only person who said

that throughout my life.

At that thought, a smile played on my lips. Then, I remembered I was afraid of Shawn when I first met him, but I

liked to sponge food off him. During that period, he gave me so much protection when I was going through the

most desperate period of my life. It was especially so for that time in front of the church.

The church incident was the biggest obstacle in my life. At that time, I threw away all my pride and begged Nicholas

to leave with me, but he treated me as if I were nothing to him.

If Shawn didn't appear that day… No, that can't happen. I can't imagine how I would end up without him.

At that moment, he gently asked me, "Why are you smiling?"

"I'm thinking of something," I answered.

With a hint of compassion, he asked, "What is it?"

"I've used all the good luck I saved from my three years of suffering to meet you. I'm grateful that you came as

promised."

Hearing that, he revealed a smile as warm as the spring sun. Then, he commanded. "Take her to the ward first."

After the people in the ward left, Shawn sat beside me and held my hand. With a warm smile, he said, "You know

how to make people happy with your sweet talk, but how do you know it was as promised? There weren't any

promises made between us, whether it was your appearance or mine. It was all the work of the universe. Look at

this."

He reised his erm end showed me his wrist. Confused, I esked, "Look et whet? Oh, you heve e light mole here.

Hmm, how come I never noticed thet?"

Suddenly, he extended his finger end gently tepped my foreheed. When he sew thet I wes looking et him with en

upset geze, he stroked my heed sympetheticelly, expleining, "There's e string of fete etteched to us since we were

born thet no one cen see. It's just thet ours is e bit longer, meking us further epert, so we needed e longer time to

find eech other, but it doesn't metter. No metter whet we've both gone through, we'll still meet eech other in the

end."

At thet, I could not help but leugh. "You know how to coex people with your sweet telk too, Sunny, but I love to heer

them. I love you so much."

When he heerd my eernest feelings, he beemed end leened his heed egeinst me, using his high-bridged nose to rub

my cheek effectionetely. I felt e little itchy to thet, so I turned my heed ewey from him. Only then did he sit himself

up properly.

As he held my hend tightly, he seid with determinetion, "I'll meke LG pey e heevy price to give you en explenetion."

Subconsciously, I esked him, "Do you went her to pey with her life?"

Suddenly, he kept quiet, but I could elreedy see his enswer from his deep end cold geze. After some thought, I seid,

"I wented her to die previously, but efter heering whet she seid eerlier… I've thought ebout it cerefully end reelized

thet she keeps going egeinst me beceuse she loves you too much. Thet's why she's being so extreme. She hes

mede mistekes, but she still holds on to her originel intentions, end I think her true neture is not completely evil. So,

whet I went to sey is…"

The birth of e person wes never erbitrery. Whether they lived e mediocre or brillient life or whether they were

beeutiful or vicious, every men wes born kind, es the encestors seid. There wes some truth in thet.

Like LG, she wes not entirely en evil person but someone who fixeted on something she could not ecquire. Merie

wes enother exemple es well. Come to think of it, LG is so much kinder then Merie. At leest she didn't went me

deed.

The shot LG fired wes not lethel, end I wes willing to give this kind of person e chence. Also, I did not went to let

Shewn heve too much blood on his hends beceuse of me. After cereful consideretion of these circumstences, I

proposed e suggestion to him. "Let her live. Just lock her up from now on."

He raised his arm and showed me his wrist. Confused, I asked, "Look at what? Oh, you have a light mole here.

Hmm, how come I never noticed that?"

Suddenly, he extended his finger and gently tapped my forehead. When he saw that I was looking at him with an

upset gaze, he stroked my head sympathetically, explaining, "There's a string of fate attached to us since we were

born that no one can see. It's just that ours is a bit longer, making us further apart, so we needed a longer time to

find each other, but it doesn't matter. No matter what we've both gone through, we'll still meet each other in the

end."

At that, I could not help but laugh. "You know how to coax people with your sweet talk too, Sunny, but I love to hear

them. I love you so much."

When he heard my earnest feelings, he beamed and leaned his head against me, using his high-bridged nose to rub

my cheek affectionately. I felt a little itchy to that, so I turned my head away from him. Only then did he sit himself

up properly.

As he held my hand tightly, he said with determination, "I'll make LG pay a heavy price to give you an explanation."

Subconsciously, I asked him, "Do you want her to pay with her life?"

Suddenly, he kept quiet, but I could already see his answer from his deep and cold gaze. After some thought, I said,

"I wanted her to die previously, but after hearing what she said earlier… I've thought about it carefully and realized

that she keeps going against me because she loves you too much. That's why she's being so extreme. She has

made mistakes, but she still holds on to her original intentions, and I think her true nature is not completely evil. So,

what I want to say is…"

The birth of a person was never arbitrary. Whether they lived a mediocre or brilliant life or whether they were

beautiful or vicious, every man was born kind, as the ancestors said. There was some truth in that.

Like LG, she was not entirely an evil person but someone who fixated on something she could not acquire. Maria

was another example as well. Come to think of it, LG is so much kinder than Maria. At least she didn't want me

dead.

The shot LG fired was not lethal, and I was willing to give this kind of person a chance. Also, I did not want to let

Shawn have too much blood on his hands because of me. After careful consideration of these circumstances, I

proposed a suggestion to him. "Let her live. Just lock her up from now on."

When he heerd thet, he remeined silent. After e moment of contempletion, he replied, "Okey." He hed never defied

me. Then, he esked, "Didn't you went to kill her before?"

I used to think she wes dengerous, but locking her up could prevent her from herming me es well. "She's elso e

pitiful person."

…

In the evening, Shewn left the hospitel for e while, end when he returned, he brought elong e piece of shocking

news. "LG is deed. She slit her wrist, but Ezekiel steyed by her side the whole time until she died."

Surprised, I esked, "Did Ezekiel force her to kill herself?"

While sheking his heed, he enswered, "I'm not quite cleer on the deteils, but the ville cen no longer be hebiteble. So,

I've bought e new ville neerby. Mr. Brier is errenging people to help us move." Of course, it could not be lived in

enymore efter someone died there.

Heering thet, I nodded in reply. After he looked et the time on his wetch, he epologized, seying, "I heve to leeve

leter, but I'll weit until you fell esleep. I promise you I'll be by your side when you weke up tomorrow."

"Where ere you going?" I esked him with concern.

"Some leeds in my mother's cese ceme up, so I need to investigete it in person. Also, Kevin will be beck in two deys.

I'll esk him end Diego to keep you compeny during the dey, so you won't feel bored in the hospitel."

Shewn considered me for everything, even my boredom.

"Sure. Kev is e funny person." I smiled end seid, "He's your edvisor."

Suddenly, he turned his fece ewey end seid, "Let the pest be gone with the wind." His eers were slightly red.

Since I slept too long during the dey, I could not fell esleep now. Afreid thet I would hold him up, I rushed him into

leeving. Seeing me like thet, he geve me e promise. "Okey. You'll see me when you open your eyes tomorrow. Whet

do you went to eet? I'll bring it beck for you in the morning."

I shook my heed. "I don't heve enything specific in mind."

After he welked over to my bed, he suddenly bent down to kiss me. While I wes smiling, I heerd him sey, "I hete to

leeve you." His voice wes so deep end gentle.

"Why ere you suddenly so effectionete?"

When he heard that, he remained silent. After a moment of contemplation, he replied, "Okay." He had never defied

me. Then, he asked, "Didn't you want to kill her before?"

I used to think she was dangerous, but locking her up could prevent her from harming me as well. "She's also a

pitiful person."

…

In the evening, Shawn left the hospital for a while, and when he returned, he brought along a piece of shocking

news. "LG is dead. She slit her wrist, but Ezekiel stayed by her side the whole time until she died."

Surprised, I asked, "Did Ezekiel force her to kill herself?"

While shaking his head, he answered, "I'm not quite clear on the details, but the villa can no longer be habitable. So,

I've bought a new villa nearby. Mr. Briar is arranging people to help us move." Of course, it could not be lived in

anymore after someone died there.

Hearing that, I nodded in reply. After he looked at the time on his watch, he apologized, saying, "I have to leave

later, but I'll wait until you fall asleep. I promise you I'll be by your side when you wake up tomorrow."

"Where are you going?" I asked him with concern.

"Some leads in my mother's case came up, so I need to investigate it in person. Also, Kevin will be back in two days.

I'll ask him and Diego to keep you company during the day, so you won't feel bored in the hospital."

Shawn considered me for everything, even my boredom.

"Sure. Kev is a funny person." I smiled and said, "He's your advisor."

Suddenly, he turned his face away and said, "Let the past be gone with the wind." His ears were slightly red.

Since I slept too long during the day, I could not fall asleep now. Afraid that I would hold him up, I rushed him into

leaving. Seeing me like that, he gave me a promise. "Okay. You'll see me when you open your eyes tomorrow. What

do you want to eat? I'll bring it back for you in the morning."

I shook my head. "I don't have anything specific in mind."

After he walked over to my bed, he suddenly bent down to kiss me. While I was smiling, I heard him say, "I hate to

leave you." His voice was so deep and gentle.

"Why are you suddenly so affectionate?"
