My Love for You Broke Me

Chapter 506

I called Emma that night. Once she took the call, I asked, "So? How did it go?"

Emma sighed. "What else? Sex."

Oh, she's open to that kind of talk now, huh?

Just when I was about to say something, I heard Christopher speak. "You can still go on? Why don't we go for

another round?"

As sexy as ever. "You guys go ahead." I hung up right after that. I rested my chin on the windowsill, my gaze upon

the faraway scenery, and I blushed.

Then Shawn came in. He sat on the bed and pulled me into his embrace. "What's on your mind?"

He touched my burning cheeks and frowned. "It's hot."

I answered, "I called Emma just now. They're… doing the same thing we're doing, and I felt embarrassed."

Shawn smiled. "You're embarrassed?"

I shot him a glare. "What do you mean?" I explained, "It's their bedroom affair. It's fine talking about it but hearing

them doing it just feels… feels like blasphemy."

Shawn teased, "You were imagining some dirty stuff, weren't you?"

Back when I still had a crush on Christopher, talking to him was an exciting experience. My heart would flutter every

time I talked to him, though we didn't talk that much. Just catching a glimpse of him alone was a luxury. I couldn't

imagine tainting him, much less imagine how he looked in bed. Yet now I could hear him going at it with Emma, and

I sighed. "Just lamenting the past, Sunny. Emma has him, and I have you. That's the best we can hope for."

He wrapped his arm around my shoulders and grunted. I asked, "So, you want to guess the exact moment I fell for

you?"

He looked me in the eye and kissed my forehead. I felt his chin rub against my head, and he said, "Not the time you

fell into the river, that's for sure. You were still entangled with Nicholas. He was all you cared about. You must have

fallen for me during your darkest hour. Psychology says anyone in despair would grab any sliver of hope they could

get."

He answered correctly. Very smart. I've been calling him smart a lot.

After a short pause, he said, "It's during the wedding at the church."

Back when I was alone and helpless, he was the one who swooped in and saved me. I wrapped my arms around his

neck and kissed his cheek. He closed his eyes in enjoyment. Happily, I said, "Ever since then, I started paying

attention to you. Sometimes I would try to find out what you were doing. You took up all my heart before I knew it."

Back then, I was trying my best to distance myself from Nicholas. I was shocked and grateful that he saved me

from the crash Maria masterminded, but that was all. There was no love in there, for Shawn had taken all of it. I

spent nine years loving Nicholas, but I didn't feel like it was a waste when I no longer did. That was because I found

someone who loved me as much as I loved him. He showed up at the right time as well. Thankfully, I said, "Thank

you for keeping me safe." Shawn had been protecting me all he could.

"You're my wife. Of course, I have to protect you. Can't let Christopher or Ezekiel take that job away."

Surprised, I asked, "Why did you bring Ezekiel up?" I didn't think I had anything to do with him.

"Just saying. Are you feeling sleepy?" he changed the subject.

I answered, "No. I took a nap earlier. Do you want to play a match with me?"

"You go ahead. I'll just watch."

Shawn was never interested in games. I unlocked my phone and downloaded a MOBA game. It wasn't a game I

played a lot, but it was a good time killer. No, I wasn't bored. This was a comfortable place. The seas were churning

out there, the lights were warm, and the man I loved was by my side. A game was perfect for this ambiance.

Besides, the night was still young. I logged into my account and saw Emma and May online. Delighted, I invited

them to join my team.

Right before the match went underway, Amy came online as well. Surprised, I texted, 'Oh, you're here too.'

'Yep. I'm bored. Fancy seeing you ladies here.'

'Don't feed the enemies, girls,' Emma said.

Said the one who was a noob. May was a noob as well. I had never played with Amy, so I had no idea about her

skills.

We matched with other players for a game, and once we got inside, I realized Amy was a noob as well. I didn't play

a lot of this, so my skills were bad as well. Moreover, I was lying in Shawn's embrace. That affected my skills even

further.

Shawn watched me play in silence despite my lack of skills.

Our lackluster performance dragged the whole team down. The remaining teammate roared in his anger, "You

f*cking noobs! Stop feeding the enemy! Oh my god, stop! Please stop! I'm just trying to have a match here!"

I grumbled, "Someone called me a noob."

Shawn laughed. "But you are a noob."

Damn it.

That hurt. Annoyed, Emma shouted back, "Shut it, trash! We're just playing around. That was just a warmup. Ladies,

show this noob what we got."

Okay, that was stupid of Emma. I turned to Shawn. "Do you know how to play?"

Shawn looked at me for a while, his eyes gleaming. Then he kissed me. I huddled closer and wrapped my arms

around his neck. "Can you help me, Sunny?"

Shawn took over. He was a fast learner, and after he saw me play, he got the basics of the game. Then he went on

a killing spree. He was a good player and wouldn't even flinch when he came face to face with an enemy. For some

reason, all the feeders—that was us ladies—turned around and scored a lot of kills all of a sudden. It felt like the

players just switched.

The guy who called us noobs said, "Whoa. You ladies were just warming up just now. I'm really sorry for calling you

noobs."

Then, he followed Shawn and Amy around. Shawn ignored him. Every time he tried to follow Shawn, Shawn would

run away. May, Emma, and Amy were doing the same as well. They treated the guy like he was invisible, and I felt

that something was off.

These ladies were as noob as I was. There was no way they could be professionals right away unless someone else

was playing for each of them as well.
