“Sean?”I called him subconsciously.
Then I regreted it.
But he heard me and looked up at me. Though the night was dark and I couldn’t see his eyes, I heard him laugh, “I didn’t like you calling my full name before. I wanted you to call me Sean. Now even if you call me by my full name, I’m happy.”
“President Jessop, why are you still here?”
His words made me sad.
“I don’t know.”Sean’s voice was a little melancholy. He stood up and asked me, “where are you going? Do you want me to drive you?”
“No.”
I didn’t want to tell him I was going to the hospital.
“Since I met you, I’ll drive you.”Sean came up to me.
I saw his face but I thought he was a little haggard.
Maybe it was an illusion.
I wanted to leave alone but Sean didn’t agree.
I had no choice but to tell him that I was going to Sacred Heart Hospital.
Actually, I was in a dilemma.
My brain told me to watch out for Sean because he supported Molly.
But my actions, my heart and my subconscious all trusted him.
Even I looked down on myself.
We arrived at Sacred Heart Hospital. I went upstairs to see Sherry. Sean followed me.
I stood outside Sherry’s ICU. She lay there quietly with her eyes closed. She hadn’t changed.
The figures on the surrounding instruments didn’t seem to have changed much.
But some figures seemed to have changed.
Because I was not a medical student. I didn’t know much about it.
“My grandfather came to see her before.”Sean stood behind me and said.
“Grandpa Jessop?”I turned to Sean and was surprised.
“Yes.”Sean nodded.”Molly wanted to jump, so Grandma Carter called my grandfather. She wanted us to get married. But my grandfather immediately refused.”
“I can understand him.”
Molly hurt me and I exposed her plagiarism.
As a result, James’s impression of us became extremely bad. He must have said he didn’t want us to be her granddaughter-in-law.
“But after my grandfather came to see Grandma Carter, he changed his mind and called Molly and me home to allow the marriage.”
I was a little shocked when Sean finished.
Did he agree?
Were they getting married?
“Well, congratulations…”He hugged me from behind before I finished.
I heard his thin lips close to my ears and said, “June, I can marry her but I haven’t slept with her. I’ll never touch her in my life. You are the only woman I am willing to touch.”
“President Jessop-”
“Don’t call me that.”Sean held me from behind and asked me, “where do you live?”
His voice was a little hoarse and ambiguous.
I knew what would happen if I answered him.
But I was stupid and always confused by him. I told him where I lived.
We entered a room. Sean picked me up and laid me gently on the bed. He pressed me, “June, I want you…”
I looked at him and asked, “you said you didn’t touch Molly. Her baby…”
“It’s not mine.”
Sean’s answer shocked me!
“What?”I looked at him suspiciously, “how do you know?”
His hand was moving slowly. His black eyes looked at me seriously.”At least when I was conscious, I never touched her. At first, I thought it was mine, because I was drunk that day, and I thought of her as you…”
He took my hair off my cheek.
My whole face came out. He leaned down and kissed me on the cheek.”People say you look the same, but I don’t think so. She was pregnant after that day, so I’ve been skeptical.”
“And then?”
“On the day of her miscarriage, I had the baby specifically identified. The baby is not mine.”
Sean said lightly.
I looked at him but I felt heartbroken.”Sean, she lied to you but you are very kind to her. If this is not love, what is love?”
“Sorry…”
Sean’s body was hot at this time.
When he kissed me, I felt the hot breath spray on my face. It seemed to light me up.
He had been touching me so I couldn’t help groaning.
The light was off. The moonlight was cold. I couldn’t see his expression and could only feel his movements.
He guided me and filled me.
My instinct made me hook his neck and bear the love he gave me at the moment.
At last I fell asleep holding him.
I woke up with no one around me. I felt the bed subconsciously. It had a little temperature.
I looked around and found his black suit and leather shoes in the room.
When I looked for him, I saw Sean coming out of the bathroom. He was not dressed. He was wrapped in a bath towel.
The water dripped down his short hair.
He saw me wake up and suddenly fell on me.
I knew what he wanted to do, but I had to work today!
“I’m sorry, I can’t…”
At this time, I was awake. Thinking of my behavior last night, I thought I must be crazy.
Why did I promise him?
But Sean held me, “honey, I find I can’t live without you. I’ve been addicted to you since I first made love to you. I can’t quit.”
“No. You will be my brother-in-law soon.”
I pushed him away.
I got up and wrapped in a thin quilt and took my clothes into the bathroom and took a bath.
By the time I came out, Sean had put on a suit and stood there.
I stood at the door looking at him awkwardly and said, “I will go to see grandma first and then go to work. You don’t have to drive me.”
“Then I will accompany you upstairs.”
“No.”
Maybe the sun shone on me during the day so I was awake. I knew I wanted to draw a line with him.
Sean followed me.
I knew he wouldn’t leave so I didn’t speak.
But when I went upstairs, I saw several people standing in front of Sherry’s ICU.
Each was a familiar face.
Marlin, Jessica and Molly-
I was scared and wanted to leave. Marlin turned to see Sean behind me. He said, “Sean, you’re here.”
