However, Stanley was different. He silently accompanied and stood behind her. Although he might seem aloof, he would never take his eyes off her. The moment she fell, he was there to catch her; his reaction was faster than anyone else's.
When Shawn was observing, one thing was gradually making sense to him.
In the past, he felt that only he himself could take care of Sharon; he thought that he understood Sharon the best. But now, after observing them from far for the past few days, he felt that Stanley's love for Sharon wasn't any less than his love for her.
That man could take good care of her.
Should he... let go of her now?
When she was with him, she had been in so much pain. However, when she was with Stanley, she was genuinely happy.
Sharon, who was standing under the sun and laughing happily, looked lively and beautiful, and her eyes were full of life. She was not dull like she was when with Shawn, and she didn't have hatred in her eyes.
She hated Shawn so much.
In contrast, she loved Stanley very much.
Shawn smiled bitterly. "I know that you love Stanley very much. I did think about maybe I should let go of you and let you be together with him. But he pushed you to my side again. He put you in such a situation and almost let you die in the hands of Isai. Sharon, he can't protect you."
"No!" Sharon pushed him away. "I don't need him to protect me. I can protect myself!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she picked up the broken window glass of the car and thrust at Shawn without hesitation.
In the dark of the night, the sharp glass in her hand reflected the night light.
Shawn fell backward, and the glass in Sharon's hand slid past his neck. It was a near miss.
When Sharon saw that she hadn't succeeded, she immediately pushed open the car door, gritted her teeth, and jumped out of the door. The instant pain in her legs spread out from the joints. However, she endured it with all her might and ran away.
"Mr. Lewis!"
William, who was standing outside the car door, heard the noise.
"Don't worry. I'll chase after her." Shawn ran towards Sharon and caught up with her in a few large strides.
Sharon listened as the footsteps behind her were getting closer and closer. She even heard Shawn's voice. "Are you sure you want to continue running? I can chase you all day long, but can your legs stand it?"
It sounded like he was waiting to see her fail.
Despite that, Sharon ran forward desperately. Because of the pain, cold sweat broke out from her forehead.
"Why are you so disobedient?"
Shawn sighed and stretched out his long arm. With a swift move, he pulled Sharon. "Don't run away. Where are you going?"
Sharon forcefully shook off his hand, only to find that she couldn't get rid of it at all. He held it too tight.
She finally burst out. "Let me go! Are you crazy? Why are you doing this to me? Let me go, you b*stard!"
Shawn acted as if he hadn't heard anything. "Isai's men are right behind us. They might catch up soon. Are you sure you want to die? Is it worse to follow me than to die in Isai's hands?"
"Yes! Even if I die in Isai's hands, I don't want to be with you!"
"Sharon, don't do this..." "Don't do what? Shawn, don't forget that the little bit of friendship between us has been destroyed by you! Now, as long as I see you, my father's appearance before he died will automatically flash across my mind. I will think of how heartless and ruthless you were to kill my father like an executioner... Shawn, you are a monster. I hate you!"
She completely erupted with power and shouted with all her might. She was as angry as a lioness.
Shawn's neck was severely scratched by her, and immediately there was a smell of blood in the air.
Instantly, his face turned pale and his lips trembled. "Sharon..."
"Bam!"
The bullets flew over their heads and sounded the alarm.
