Chapter 3

Shawn's new villa was being renovated. Because of my brother, he had been staying at my house for the past few months.

I looked around, "Where is Miss Murphy? Didn't she come back with you?"

The next second, Shawn's eyes fell on me gloomily. "Sonia, where did you go last night? Who left these?"

I realized then that he was talking about the kiss marks on my neck.

I subconsciously pulled my collar to cover them, "Nothing, just a mosquito bite."

Shawn sneered, "Don't think I don't know. Last night, your brother not only drugged me, but also had it in your wine. Why, did you collude with your brother last night, didn't sleep with me and ran out to sleep with other men?"

He continued, "Sonia, do you think that you deliberately called Lilian over last night and disappeared overnight to make me worry? You played the trick of playing hard to get wrong!"

I was confused. Why was Shawn so angry? Didn't I help him and Lilian?

I felt so sour when I realized it. It turned out that he thought that I was playing hard to get with him by helping him last night.

His indifferent and cold voice continued to come. "As you can see, Lilian and I were together last night and I will marry her. I advise you to stop playing any tricks you want to play."

I lowered my eyes and smiled softly, "Okay. I'm sorry about my brother drugging you, but... I really don't like you anymore."

Shawn looked up at me deeply and he obviously didn't want to believe it and his brows were furrowed.

In the past, everyone in this small circle knew that I had a crush on Shawn, but I refused to fall in love, rejected countless blind dates and cut off all peach blossoms for him. But now, I know I was wrong.

I didn’t want to watch my daughter being born in expectation and dying in despair like in my previous life.

Just as Shawn was about to speak, my brother's terrified cry suddenly came from behind him. "Ahhh, damn it, why is there an extra person in the house..."

He rushed over and pointed at the room upstairs with a trembling hand. "Lilian, when did she sleep in our house?"

Shawn closed the door with a serious face and explained calmly. "I brought her here last night. She was tired after a night and couldn't get used to staying in a hotel, so I brought her back to have a good rest."

"What?!" My brother looked at him with a complicated expression, then looked at me.

"You...didn't you last night?" he almost shrieked.

Finally, his eyes fell on our necks suspiciously.

I hurriedly fled, "Brother, I'm going back to sleep first."

I quickly fled back to the room and I could still hear their voices coming from behind the closed door. Maybe my brother was questioning Shawn about what was going on.

It was lunchtime at noon and my brother knocked on the door and called me out for dinner, but I didn't get up.

"Brother, I'm not hungry yet, you guys eat." I juts replied casually.

Soon, Lilian's chuckle came from outside. "I'll call Sonia to get up. Speaking of which, it was all thanks to Sonia that Shawn and I got together so quickly last night."

The door was knocked softly again. "Sonia, I'm Lilian. Just give me some face and come out to have lunch together."

My parents and brother had taught me to be polite since I was a child. Guests should be treated with respect. I had no choice but to bite the bullet and open the door.

At the dinner table, Shawn said nothing, but gently picked up dishes for Lilian. In just a few minutes, the bowl in front of her was piled up like a mountain.

"Shawn, Sonia is still here. Sonia was already in a bad mood because of what happened last night. She will be jealous again soon."

Shawn looked up at me coldly, "Why is she jealous? You are the one I want to marry. I, like Juan, only treat her as a sister."
