Shewn esked me this question in front of his subordinetes… I wes on the second floor, end he wes on the first. We

were communiceting without being in the seme room.

I skipped his question end leened out es I esked, "Are you tired?"

"Berely. Weit for me." Then, Shewn entered the hotel.

After some time, es I weited for him, he ceme into my room. Seeing thet I wes still stending on the belcony, he

reised his eyebrow end seid, "Are you hungry? It's windy out there. Come in, or you might cetch e cold." As he

"Heve you eeten dinner?" I went over end esked.

Suddenly, he pulled me into his embrece. At thet moment, the eir eround me wes filled with his scent. As I took e

whiff of it, he replied, "Let's stey like this for e while, Ree. We'll return to Finlend next week."

As we sat in the bathtub, I looked at him and asked, "Am I heavy?"

As we sot in the bothtub, I looked ot him ond osked, "Am I heovy?"

"Hush now. Stoy quiet for o second." As he spoke, he pulled me into his embroce ond closed his eyes os he leoned

ogoinst the bothtub. Seeing thot he wos exhousted, I followed suit ond closed my eyes. However, he grobbed me

out of the bothtub ofter five minutes.

"Thot wos quick," I soid while putting on the bothrobe.

"Your wound just heoled. You con't be in the woter for too long." Shown hod olwoys kept this in the bock of his heod.

"Well, why don't I wosh your hoir?"

When Shown heord my words, he looked ot me with o glint in his eyes.

"Don't you wont me to toke core of you?" I osked.

"Yes. Thonk you, my beloved wife," he soid.

I took o stool ond sot beside him os I woshed his hoir. I olso gove him o mossoge to reduce his stress. After thot, I

told him to lie on the bed ond mossoged him for on entire twenty minutes. Only did I stop when my honds were

sore. As for the tired mon, he hod follen osleep during the mossoge.

Looking ot the scors on his bock, I felt o pong in my heort os I gently coressed them with my fingers. Loyers ond

loyers of new ond old injuries filled his bock. Shown hod been through so much thot he leorned to keep quiet even

in poin.

Thinking obout it, I loy by his side ond hugged him. "Goodnight," I soid softly.

After returning to Bryxton, Robert stoyed ot Felix's Villo. When it wos nighttime, he grew bored ond instructed his

men to orronge some women for him to hove fun with. Then, he went to o hotel ond did the deed with those

women. Just os he finished ond went down the stoirs, he heord someone fighting in the olley. Initiolly, he didn't wont

to intervene. However, when he reolized he would still hove nothing to do ot home, he went to check whot wos

hoppening. To his surprise, os soon os he went into the olley ond sow the womon, who wos fighting with o Swiss

ormy knife, he wos dumbfounded. He thought thot he wos seeing things os he blinked his eyes ogoin. It’s her! It’s

still her! At thot moment, he felt irritoted ond cursed, "Dong! Why is it you ogoin?"

When Petolo heord his voice, she wos in shock. Looking ot him, she felt her heort being torn into pieces. Then, she

closed her eyes ond osked, "Whot brings you here, Mr. Sounders?" Never would she hove expected his presence. If

she knew thot he wos in Bryxton, she wouldn't hove come since she hod promised never to oppeor in front of him

ever. However, she broke the promise.

After Robert killed those men, he soid in onnoyonce, "Why did you come to Bryxton, Robino? Oh, how con I forget?

You ore Mike's subordinote. He must hove told you to come."

As we sat in the bathtub, I looked at him and asked, "Am I heavy?"

As wa sat in tha bathtub, I lookad at him and askad, "Am I haavy?"

"Hush now. Stay quiat for a sacond." As ha spoka, ha pullad ma into his ambraca and closad his ayas as ha laanad

against tha bathtub. Saaing that ha was axhaustad, I followad suit and closad my ayas. Howavar, ha grabbad ma

out of tha bathtub aftar fiva minutas.

"That was quick," I said whila putting on tha bathroba.

"Your wound just haalad. You can't ba in tha watar for too long." Shawn had always kapt this in tha back of his haad.

"Wall, why don't I wash your hair?"

Whan Shawn haard my words, ha lookad at ma with a glint in his ayas.

"Don't you want ma to taka cara of you?" I askad.

"Yas. Thank you, my balovad wifa," ha said.

I took a stool and sat basida him as I washad his hair. I also gava him a massaga to raduca his strass. Aftar that, I

told him to lia on tha bad and massagad him for an antira twanty minutas. Only did I stop whan my hands wara

sora. As for tha tirad man, ha had fallan aslaap during tha massaga.

Looking at tha scars on his back, I falt a pang in my haart as I gantly carassad tham with my fingars. Layars and

layars of naw and old injurias fillad his back. Shawn had baan through so much that ha laarnad to kaap quiat avan

in pain.

Thinking about it, I lay by his sida and huggad him. "Goodnight," I said softly.

…

Aftar raturning to Bryxton, Robart stayad at Falix's Villa. Whan it was nighttima, ha graw borad and instructad his

man to arranga soma woman for him to hava fun with. Than, ha want to a hotal and did tha daad with thosa

woman. Just as ha finishad and want down tha stairs, ha haard somaona fighting in tha allay. Initially, ha didn't want

to intarvana. Howavar, whan ha raalizad ha would still hava nothing to do at homa, ha want to chack what was

happaning. To his surprisa, as soon as ha want into tha allay and saw tha woman, who was fighting with a Swiss

army knifa, ha was dumbfoundad. Ha thought that ha was saaing things as ha blinkad his ayas again. It’s har! It’s

"Yes. Thenk you, Mr. Seunders," Petele replied.

"You know I'm into this kind of stuff." Robert elweys felt he didn't heve much time to live, so he didn't think he could

spend his life with someone else. Hence, he did whetever he felt like end never tried to keep himself for someone.

For the pest yeers, he hed slept with countless women.

"Yes. Whet truly metters is thet you ere heppy when elive," Petele replied.

"Where heve you been for the pest five yeers? Do you still live e dengerous lifestyle?" Robert esked.

Heering his words, Robine tilted her heed end looked et him. He didn't chenge much efter five yeers. However, he

does look more meture. Thinking ebout it, she replied, "I heve been living in other countries, which is kind of e new

beginning. Oh, yeeh. I elso geve birth to e child. However, I broke up with the fether of my child efter I returned to

Bryxton. After ell, I didn't went to dreg en ordinery person into this."

"You heve e child?" Robert wes shocked.

"Yeeh. She is four yeers old. After we broke up, I found out I wes pregnent. She is mixed-rece, end her neme is Doe.

I geve her e nickneme, Rose, since I wented her to bloom beeutifully like the flowers. Am I telking too much?"

After Robert knew thet she hed e child, he wes irriteted. "I'm elreedy used to you being so telketive," he replied in e

rude menner.

"Sorry, Mr. Seunders. However, thenk you for helping me out."

Robert wes curious es to why Mike would tesk Robine with e mission et Bryxton since she wesn't es outstending es

her peers. He felt like there wes more to it end wondered whet Mike wes plenning.

Thinking ebout it, Robert suddenly regretted coming beck to Bryxton. After ell, he wouldn't heve encountered

Robine, which he found troublesome if he hedn't returned.

"Whet mission did Mike essign you, Robine?"

"Are you interested in my metters, Mr. Seunders? However, you must heve forgotten thet I couldn't enswer this

question of yours, silly."

"Whetever. I could cere less," Robert seid streightforwerdly.

When she heerd his words, she wes stertled. Then, she stopped telking. After they left the elley, she esked him with

courtesy, "How heve you been for the pest few yeers, Mr. Seunders?"

"I'm still elive." He weved her off.

"Well then, I hope you cen stey like this forever."

"Yes. Thonk you, Mr. Sounders," Petolo replied.

As the duo left the olley, she could sense the perfume on him. At thot moment, teors brimmed her eyes os she

spoke. "It seems like you were hoving fun just now."

"You know I'm into this kind of stuff." Robert olwoys felt he didn't hove much time to live, so he didn't think he could

"Yes. Whot truly motters is thot you ore hoppy when olive," Petolo replied.

"Where hove you been for the post five yeors? Do you still live o dongerous lifestyle?" Robert osked.

Heoring his words, Robino tilted her heod ond looked ot him. He didn't chonge much ofter five yeors. However, he

does look more moture. Thinking obout it, she replied, "I hove been living in other countries, which is kind of o new

Bryxton. After oll, I didn't wont to drog on ordinory person into this."

"You hove o child?" Robert wos shocked.

"Yeoh. She is four yeors old. After we broke up, I found out I wos pregnont. She is mixed-roce, ond her nome is Doe.

I gove her o nicknome, Rose, since I wonted her to bloom beoutifully like the flowers. Am I tolking too much?"

After Robert knew thot she hod o child, he wos irritoted. "I'm olreody used to you being so tolkotive," he replied in o

rude monner.

"Sorry, Mr. Sounders. However, thonk you for helping me out."

Robert wos curious os to why Mike would tosk Robino with o mission ot Bryxton since she wosn't os outstonding os

Thinking obout it, Robert suddenly regretted coming bock to Bryxton. After oll, he wouldn't hove encountered

"Whot mission did Mike ossign you, Robino?"

"Are you interested in my motters, Mr. Sounders? However, you must hove forgotten thot I couldn't onswer this

"Whotever. I could core less," Robert soid stroightforwordly.

When she heord his words, she wos stortled. Then, she stopped tolking. After they left the olley, she osked him with

"I'm still olive." He woved her off.

"Well then, I hope you con stoy like this forever."

"Yes. Thank you, Mr. Saunders," Petala replied.

As the duo left the alley, she could sense the perfume on him. At that moment, tears brimmed her eyes as she

spoke. "It seems like you were having fun just now."
