My Love for You Broke Me

Chapter 628 LG Admires Strong Individuals

Shawn wanted to take me to see the night view, but I insisted on changing back into the previous kimono. A look of

confusion filled his eyes, but he let me proceed as I wished. Having watched Ezekiel tying the obi belt for me

before, I skillfully dressed in the same manner.

After dressing up, I twirled around in front of Shawn. "Isn't it adorable? I'm also going to tie two ponytails and apply

cherry blossom makeup to enhance the cuteness."

Since it's a date with Shawn, I have to dress up well.

Even if it's just a walk.

But to me, that's a date.

Shawn asked with a warm smile, "What are you doing?"

As I tied my hair, I explained, "Of course I have to dress up beautifully when I go out with you, so I don't embarrass

you. Besides, I want to be an adorable girl who happily chatters by your side!"

Shawn sighed, "You're still as talkative as ever."

"I'm not talkative. You're just too quiet!"

Yes, I'm talkative, but I only talk a lot when I'm with him.

I enjoy this way of interacting with him.

After tying my hair, I took out eyeshadow from my bag and applied it. The only things in my bag were eyeshadow, a

cushion foundation, and lipstick. I did a simple makeup and approached him, linking my arm with his. "Colin chose

this modernized kimono for me, and I absolutely love it. The fabric is adorned with layers of cherry blossoms. I

didn't pay much attention to it before because my thoughts were focused on you. Now that you're here by my side,

I can wear it beautifully to go shopping with you by my side!"

Shawn responded with a gentle smile, "Alright."

I asked him, "Are we coming back later?"

"We're leaving tomorrow. It's more convenient to stay in the city."

"In that case, may I take a picture with you by the lake?"

The lake outside was adorned with shimmering waves, offering a picturesque view of the moonlit night and starry

sky. The scenery was exceptionally beautiful.

He agreed. "Sure, as you please."

Shawn and I went to the lakeside where I asked the bodyguard to take a few pictures with my phone. After that, we

got in the car and left. In the car, I leaned my head on his shoulder while scrolling through the pictures. I loved

every single one of them.

I asked him, "Which picture do you think is the most beautiful?"

"Are you asking which one you look the cutest in?"

I complained, "Shawn, stop teasing me!"

Shawn said softly, "Ray, you look cute in all of them."

Suddenly, he leaned down and planted a gentle kiss on my forehead, his voice filled with tenderness and concern.

"Sorry for making you go through so much recently."

Confused, I entered Instagram and asked, "Why bring that up suddenly? I never feel it's been difficult, as long as

you're safe and sound!"

I posted the photos that we've taken at the lake on Instagram, along with a cheesy caption. 'The Apple of My Eye.'

In the photo, my head was tilted and I leaned against Shawn's shoulder with a big smile on my face.

At the same time, he slightly turned his head toward me, revealing half of his face and an affectionate gaze. With

his sharply defined and well-groomed eyebrows, he looked like an intricately carved heavenly being. Praising him

became so natural that it was wearing me out!

It seemed that I was always in awe of his perfection.

Always showering him with compliments!

Suddenly, Shawn said, "Ray, thank you."

Busy with my phone, I asked, "For what?"

Shawn fell silent, not intending to answer me.

Observing his reaction, I gently brushed my nose against his cheek and said, "Shawn, I remember you used to

lecture me a lot."

"It's not lecturing, it's guidance."

I grinned and said, "Well, you're always right!"

In my heart, Shawn could do no wrong!

Except for that one time when he hugged Kiara at the banquet.

Even though it only lasted a few seconds.

But now I understand why he did that.

Shawn remained silent, and I had grown accustomed to it. Continuing the conversation, I added, "Have you made

any progress regarding your mother's case?"

"Not yet, but the truth will eventually come to light."

I reminded him, "Aimes is still waiting for you."

Aimes has yet to lay LG to rest!

Aimes stubbornly waited for Shawn.

Because of this, he and Kev were still at odds.

"Aimes is just being overconfident. Don't worry about him."

"Maybe you should attend… I heard from Diego that Aimes and Kev are having a conflict because of this. I'm

worried they might fall out.'"

Shawn glanced at me and asked, "Won't you get jealous?'"

Jealous?

I won't be jealous!

Because I know Shawn's feelings for me.

Rather than worrying about Kevin, I'm more concerned for Shawn.

I shook my head and voiced my thoughts, "After all, LG was your comrade, someone you fought alongside and

shared life-and-death experiences with. Even if both of you have grown distant over the years, it cannot be denied

that she once saved you, and you saved her. I know you don't care about her, but I know you value that shared

experience. Otherwise, you wouldn't have forgiven her repeatedly until she hurt me. Only then did you finally make

the decision to get rid of her.'"

I put down my phone and said, "Shawn, you care about your past, the days when you all struggled for survival

together at W Organization. Attending her funeral is just bidding farewell to that memory. Besides, if you attend it,

Aimes won't be so stubborn anymore."

Shawn closed his eyes with a tinge of sorrow on his face. He raised his chin slightly as he explained, "Aimes thinks

that LG loves me, but that's not true."

Confused, I asked, "But she..."

LG had affirmed to me that she had feelings for Shawn.

Shawn picked up where I left off and said calmly, "Since I met LG, she was always competitive, striving to excel in

everything, wanting to impress everyone. Whenever she went on missions, she either went alone or partnered with

strong individuals. At that time, I was the only strong individual in the W Organization that she acknowledged, whom

she admired and wanted to protect."

Shawn paused for a moment and continued, "She admired me because I was strong, which is why she risked her

life for me again and again."

Shawn paused for a moment and continued, "She admired me because I was strong, which is why she risked her

life for me again and again."

LG admired the strong people, not specifically Shawn!

Shawn closed his eyes and continued to explain, "People in the W Organization firmly believed that she liked me,

even until today. But I know that she only admired my abilities. Do you know why she later turned to Ezekiel?"

Suddenly, it dawned on me. "Because he's strong?"

If that was the case, it was easy to explain.

But this reason seemed too simple.

Shawn confirmed my guess. "Yes. At that time, I had just left the W Organization and started my own company.

Compared to Ezekiel, who was already in a prominent position, I was clearly behind. Just then, Meredith made a

resolute decision to follow Ezekiel. She willingly risked her life for him! Even after Ezekiel's downfall, she remained

loyal to him because she firmly believed that he would make a comeback. However, it was unexpected that they

both 'died' and only reappeared in our sights this year. That was truly surprising. And now, I am in the position that

Ezekiel used to be in. When LG worked for Ezekiel, she kept proclaiming her love for me and her desire to follow

me, but I did not agree."

Shawn opened his eyes, blinked wearily, and closed them again. "LG has always been attracted to strength. I just

happened to be that strong person, but Aimes can never understand this. Even until her death, LG never knew

whom she truly loved! She thought her love was genuine, but it was just self-delusion."

A self-delusional love...

The love I once had for Nicholas for three years was also self-delusional. In the end, the only one who was moved

was myself. It was only after I left that he said he loved me, but what did he love about me?

Actually, to this day, I still don't know what he loved about me.

"I trust that everything you've said is true. In that case, LG was also a pitiful person. She thought she loved you and

was always against me."

I continued to say, "You should really attend her funeral. After all, she didn't truly love you. It's simply a matter of

making an appearance for you."

"Alright. After we return to Finland, I will attend her funeral. Just like what you have said, it will serve as a closure for

our past and a gesture of gratitude to Kevin for being by my side all these years."

Despite his cold demeanor, Shawn's heart burned with warmth.

He never forgot those who had treated him well.

Suddenly, I remembered the question he had asked me earlier. With excitement, I inquired him, "Were you not

attending her funeral all this time just because you were afraid that I would be jealous?"

Shawn opened his eyes and looked at me with indifference.

I unconsciously reached out and touched my face. "Did I say something wrong?"

"She has hurt you, and that's why I didn't want to attend," Shawn replied.
