My Love for You Broke Me

Chapter 262

Rudy did divorce May!

When Joseph saw my grim expression, he comforted me, "Miss, I'm sure Ms. Sommer only lied to you because she was afraid that you would be worried."

I knew that she was afraid that I would be worried about her, but deep down, I felt upset for her. However, what could I do for her? I couldn't possibly cause trouble for Rudy since she hoped I wouldn't do so! Otherwise, she wouldn't have lied to me.

Thinking about it, I was depressed. Soon, I was back at Bryxton. After traveling for several hours, I was exhausted. As soon as I entered my apartment and drank my medicine, I went straight to bed. I woke up before the sun rose and quickly went out after changing a set of clothes. When I opened the door, I saw Gary standing by the door.

"Why are you here?" I asked in surprise.

"I just ended my business trip, President Ree. The vice president asked me to accompany you to France. He has briefed me on the procedures, and I know what to do," Gary explained politely.

Ever since Nicholas made the Felix Family bankrupt, Gary never worked by my side. Later on, he began to go on business trips constantly when we were with the Xenos Family. Anthony told me that this was to convince the Xenoses, and I believed him. It was true that Gary needed some time to evaluate himself, even if that meant that he would need to work hard. Fortunately, he finally came back to me.

I felt more assured since Gary, whom I was familiar with, had returned. After having breakfast, Anthony, Gary, and I went to France.

Since my biological mother lived here, France was not a kind place to me, and I had always repelled it. However, I would not have refused to come since Anthony chose it out of consideration. I would immediately head back to Bryxton as soon as I was done with the surgery.

When I met the doctors, I noticed that they were men in their fifties or sixties. Gary said that they were experts in the medical field. As an expert, it was only natural that they would have experience in their particular field. Moreover, many experts were discussing my illness and would do the surgery personally.

Seeing that the doctors were experts and reliable, I felt less terrified. However, I was still afraid to be on the operating table, mostly because I had no one by my side.

The person I was talking about was my boyfriend.

At this very moment, I missed Shawn dearly.

The surgery started at 5.00PM, and I was waiting for the time to pass as I sat on the bed while wearing a hospital gown. At the same time, I felt dejected; maybe it was because many terrible things had happened recently. Regardless it was May or me—we were both in desperate situations. We were certainly besties since we were not happy with our love lives and had never gained true happiness in them.

When Gary saw that I was depressed, he was concerned and asked me about it. However, I shook my

head and lied, saying, "I miss Shawn." As I spoke, I realized that it wasn't a good decision since I missed him even more after I had said it aloud.

When the time finally struck 5.00PM, I was ushered into the surgery room while still conscious. After a while, the doctor began to sedate me. Just as I was starting to lose consciousness, I vaguely heard someone entering the room. Then, I asked the doctor, "Will it hurt?" After my words fell, I felt someone caressing my hair gently as he whispered against my ear softly, "It won't."

When I heard the voice, I felt a sense of familiarity, but I couldn't pinpoint who the person was in that split second. Maybe I'm just hallucinating, I thought.

Then, I smiled and said, "Let's begin, then." Afterward, I blacked out.

…

Shawn bent down and kissed Renee's forehead. Her skin was so soft and delicate that he couldn't help but linger his cold lips against her forehead for a moment before straightening his back and ordering the doctor, "Let's begin."

Then, he turned around and left the operation room. Outside the room, he leaned against the wall and looked at Gary faintly. At that moment, Gary felt a shiver run down his spine, and he quickly called out politely, "Mr. Xenos."

Hearing his words, Shawn averted his gaze and turned away.

On the other hand, Waylen quickly rushed to Gary's side and said, "Don't tell Ms. Renee that Mr. Xenos is here. We'll be leaving after a short while."

When Gary heard his words, he was shocked. "Why can't I let her know about this?"

Then, Waylen sneakily glanced at Shawn, who looked calm on the outside but was an emotional wreck on the inside. He then whispered in Gary's ear, "Mr. Xenos is angry because of the scandals online. The way I see it, he seems jealous. Although he is angry about it, he is still worried about Ms. Renee. If not, he wouldn't be here right now."

At that moment, Waylen and Gary had something in common; one was Shawn's personal assistant, while the other was Renee's personal assistant.

"President Felix has been missing Mr. Xenos the entire day. I can't figure out why they are ignoring each other," Gary mumbled.

"That's because Mr. Xenos is being jealous, while Ms. Renee is afraid that Mr. Xenos would be worried about her illness," Waylen said and hit the bullseye.

Jealous?! Does Waylen think I'm deaf? Shawn thought.

As Shawn heard their words, he reminded coldly, "I don't want to hear it next time."

When Waylen heard Shawn's warning, he shivered and quickly walked away, acting as if he hadn't done anything.

During Renee's surgery, Shawn was worried sick, and he had never felt like this before. Fortunately, the surgery was successful, but the doctor didn't remove her uterus. This secret was kept from her, and it was a surprise he would give her.

When the surgery ended, Shawn stayed by Renee's side in the ward as he caressed her cheek with his fingers adoringly. Only did he leave when she was about to wake up. It wasn't like he was avoiding her, though. It was just that he was willing to pretend not to know anything since she didn't want him to know about it. Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

When Shawn came downstairs, he saw Waylen standing by the entrance. Then, he stuffed his hands in his pocket and asked, "How is it going with the children?"

"The Yates have given them back," Waylen replied.

"Let's head back to Bryxton," ordered Shawn faintly.

When the helicopter landed on the manor in Bryxton, he could hear the babies crying from afar. At that moment, he subconsciously frowned.

Although he didn't like kids, things were different if they were his and were given birth by the woman he loved. Thus, he only frowned for a second before marching into the room.

When he saw the nanny and Charles hugging both infants, he was momentarily stunned.

They look beautiful. They are my children.

When Charles saw that Shawn was looking at the babies helplessly, he handed Leo to the latter.

However, Shawn shook his head in refusal since he had never carried a baby before, especially one that was so small. Hence, he was afraid that he would hurt Leo and scare her. "Just carry her. I'm just here to check on them." He was here to look at the children Renee had risked her life to give birth to.

At that moment, Charles vaguely sensed Shawn's emotions since he used to be this way too. Thus, he quickly said, "Mr. Xenos, Leo is your daughter. I'm sure she'll be happy if you hold her."

Hearing his words, Shawn looked at him skeptically.

When Charles handed the baby to him, he carried it with difficulty. At first, he didn't feel any emotions toward the baby, but when he held the baby in his arms, he felt his cold heart soften. Suddenly, Shawn felt happy for no reason. It was such a subtle feeling that he had never felt before.

At that moment, he felt like this was the most valuable gift he had ever received in his life.

Just as he was immersed in the feeling of being a father, Charles spoke up and reminded him gently. "Mr. Xenos, the Yates has yet to name the twins. Do you have anything in mind?"

Names… Thinking about it, Shawn lowered his eyes and looked at the baby in his hands. Then, he said softly, "Leo will be named River, and Leonard will be named Skyler."

As he spoke, he smiled and said to Leo gently, "Sweetheart, you'll be using the name your mother used to lie to me with. As for your brother, I hope he doesn't become someone like me…"

Shawn wished that Skyler would be a gentle and caring man, not someone as cold and crue
