“Shaunic, Shaunic.” When Sarah saw him, tears flowed out of her eyes. She lifted her dress and ran toward him while stumbling. She wanted to fling herself into his embrace.
However, Shaun quickly evaded her. Sarah looked at him with a blank expression. Hurt, regret, and pain flashed across her eyes.
“Shaunic, I didn’t lie to you on purpose. I was forced to do so. That person was one of the criminals who kidnapped me back in the States. You should know how painful that incident was for me. I’m not clean anymore, yet that person appeared again like a demon.
“He said he had indecent pictures and videos of my past. I had no choice. I was afraid that you would be disgusted with me if you found out, so I gave him money. I gave him 200 million dollars but he
wasn’t satisfied. He wanted me to have s*x with him.”
Sarah crouched down and cried bitterly as she
spoke, “I felt disgusted. Every time he touched me, it felt so repulsive that I wanted to puke. Shaunic, I made a mistake. I’ve done you wrong, but it wasn’t intentional. I love you. You were already so repulsed by me that you would puke whenever I touched you. I was scared that you’d hate me even more if you saw the pictures.”
“Get up.”
Shaun extended his hands to help her up.
Sarah flung herself into his embrace. She wailed while hugging him. “ Shaunic, don’t leave me. I’ll die without you.”
Shaun’s body stiffened.
Actually, the police had already told him about these things before he bailed her out of jail.
He had still blamed Sarah for her stupidity before. She should have told him that someone was threatening her.
However, Sarah’s cries made him understand that maybe the issue stemmed from his constant refusal to touch her and it had made her increasingly insecure.
He did not blame her as much anymore, but he still felt uncomfortable.
He even wanted to push Sarah away instinctively. “Sarah, calm down. Let’s go back to the seaside
villa first.” Shaun helped her to get in the car. Hadley was in front, driving the car.
During the whole journey, Sarah leaned her body on Shaun’s chest. She kept explaining, “Shaunic, Lucifer is dead now. I won’t do you any wrong from now on. Let’s call it even, okay? Didn’t you have sex with Cate some time back as well? I know all about it. You spent two nights at her place.”
Shaun laughed bitterly in his heart.
He said he loved Sarah, yet he had sex with Cate. On the other hand, Sarah said she loved him for more than ten years, yet she still had sex with another man before their wedding.
That was the first time he was at a loss regarding their relationship.
Could he really continue being together with Sarah? Was such a relationship not dirty?
“Shaunic, say something. I beg you, just say something. You’re making me feel scared.” Sarah started sobbing again as she was at a loss.
“Sarah, answer me seriously. Do you have anything to do with Lucifer’s death?” Shaun’s cold eyes stared into her. His gaze looked as if he wanted to burn a hole into someone.
Sarah trembled. She said, “Lucifer died due to a gunshot. Where would I find a killer who could do something like that? If I had that ability, I would’ve gotten someone to deal with him a long time ago. I wouldn’t have allowed myself to keep getting threatened by Lucifer.”
Shaun pressed his lips together in silence. He did not say a word.
Sarah continued saying, “Lucifer did so many bad things overseas. It’s not an exaggeration to say that he was without a conscience. After he returned, he kept gambling and taking drugs. He had too many enemies.”
“Enough, I got it.”
Shaun finally said something. After he spoke, he turned his head and looked outside the window.
Sarah gazed at his handsome side profile. She breathed a sigh of relief inwardly. However, she still had many doubts in her heart. Who dug out Lucifer’s body? Who was the one giving her a hard time behind the scenes?
She was unconfident, but luckily, Shaun had chosen to believe in her.
After arriving at the seaside villa, Shaun brought her inside.
When she saw the suitcases in the living room, she did not have a good feeling. “Shaunic, are we… moving somewhere else?”
“It’s not both of us, it’s just me. ” Shaun rubbed his brows. A deep trace of helplessness flashed across his narrow eyes. “I’m sorry, Sarah. I think we both need some time to cool down.”
Sarah was stunned. She could not believe it.
Had Shaun not decided to stop pursuing that matter just now? Why was he leaving all of a sudden?!
No, she could not let him leave.
Sarah grabbed Shaun’s hand. “ Shaunic, don’t go. I beg you. What will it take for you to forgive me? As long as you say it, I’m willing to do anything.”
“Sarah, don’t do this…” Shaun tried to push her hand away.
However, it was as if Sarah had gone crazy. Her face was streaked with tears. “ If you want to cool down, you can do it here. I won’t disturb you. Shaunic, everyone in Canberra sees me as a joke now. If you move out so suddenly, what will those people think of me? They’ll think that I’m a seductress. I won’t be able to hold my head high for the rest of my life. If
you don’t want me, I’d rather die! ” “Sarah, are you threatening me?”
An icy coldness laced Shaun’s helpless tone. His towering figure emanated an aura that could make one’s heart shudder involuntarily.
Sarah was frightened. She shook her head.
“No, Shaunic. Can’t we just sit down and talk peacefully? We’ve known each other for 2o years. We’ve had feelings for each other for more than ten years and went through so many hardships together. It really wasn’t easy for us to come to where we are today.”
Shaun gazed at her in confusion. “ Sarah, I’ve done a lot of thinking in these two days. Actually, I never once thought that you were dirty. However, the fact that I can’t touch you has become a hurdle in our hearts that we can’t overcome. Every woman has her basic needs, and I can’t satisfy them for you. I’ve already forgiven you, but I can’t act as if nothing has ever happened before. Do you understand?”
Just thinking about the countless women Lucifer had slept with and the times he had sex with Sarah made Shaun feel repulsed at the thought of hugging her.
How could they even talk about being together for the rest of their lives?
“What do you mean?” Sarah got agitated and hysterical. “In the end, you just think that I’m dirty! ”
“Sarah, aren’t you tired? Whenever we fight, you’ll always bring up this matter.” Shaun had a bitter expression. “If I hated you for being dirty, I wouldn’t have gotten together with you from the start.”
“Then why are you leaving?” Sarah begged pitifully, “Shaunic, don’t go. I’ll tell you everything from now on. I won’t hide anything from you, okay? Whichever part of me that you think isn’t good enough, I’ll change it.”
“Sarah, I’m sorry. I’m really tired.”
Shaun broke her grip. He simply took his suitcases, turned around, and walked out.
Sarah was on the verge of falling apart. She grabbed his suitcases and refused to let go. “You said we just need a break, so you’ll still come back. I won’t let you bring your stuff away. Shaunic, I admit that I was wrong, but you got together with Cate too. You betrayed our feelings before as well. I can
forgive you for that, so why can’t you forgive me?! ”
Shaun saw her holding onto his suitcases, refusing t o let go. He was annoyed by her cries as well.
Therefore, he simply abandoned his things and left straight away.
He did not know why he and Sarah had become like this.
In his memories, whenever he felt tired or lonely, he could always feel a sense of belonging as long as he saw Sarah.
However, Sarah was like a huge mountain pressing on his heart at that moment. Whenever he faced her, he would feel indescribable exhaustion.
