Chapter 149: Why Isn't She Reacting?!!

Her heart instantly skipped a bit, and her body trembled as her eyes fixed on the person in front of her. "Sh-Shawn!"

"Leia." The person who was Shawn stared at her with eyes filled with different emotions. His lashes fluttered and before Leia, who stood in front of him, could react or say anything, he grabbed her by the hand and pulled her into a warm, loving embrace. He wrapped his arms around her and tightly hugged her.

Leia, who was being hugged, found her body still trembling and her lips twitching as she was speechless and had no idea what to say or where to start.

Shawn drew her back from the embrace and stared at her face. A smile made its way to his lips, and he pulled her back into his arms, then began to stroke her hair down to her back. "I missed you. I missed you so much, Leia!" He sniffed, and Leia's eyes throbbed.

She yanked back from the hug to stare at his face, and when she saw that he was crying, her heart skipped a bit. "W-why are you crying?" She unknowingly asked him, and Shawn slightly shook his head. "It's nothing. I am just so happy to see you. I mean, I never expected to meet you here!" He smiled ever so charmingly, and a sharp breath left Leia's lips. 

Her lashes flickered and without uttering another word, she shoved her hands into her pocket and hurriedly walked past Shawn, proceeding towards her car. However, Shawn grabbed her by the wrist, halting her on her track. "Leia, wait."

Leia's heart trembled, and she halted. Her breathing became rapid and she shut her eyes. That voice! The way he calls her name, he's still doing it up to now. It was just so different from the way others called it. He held so much gentleness and an accent she used to love so much then.

Shawn took a deep breath and walked forward to stand beside her. He turned her so she could face him, and a gentle smile formed on his lips. He slowly scrutinized her from head to toe, and his smile widened. "You... look so beautiful and amazing." He said, with feelings evident in his tone.

Leia mumbled not a single word and just stood staring at him. He changed so much and looked so different, and it's a very good difference.

"Shawn..." She finally uttered his name again, and Shawn smiled at her as he nodded slowly. "I-i... don't know what to say." A low breath escaped her throat and she gazed at him. She's so speechless, she doesn't even know what to say to him. 

"Leia, you don't have to explain anything. I know, okay." He smiled tenderly at her and reached out his hand to touch her cheek.

From a bit far down the road, a Rolls-Royce drove at a normal speed and swiftly took a turn at the U-turn.

Within the car, Adrik sat with his eyes focused on his phone. His brow slowly began to crease as he felt a presence that was most familiar to him, and the closer he got, the stronger the presence. "Little wife..." His brow furrowed deeply when he heard her voice, which was stuttering, from a far distance. 

"Stop the car!" He ordered the driver, and the driver swiftly parked the car on the roadside. Adrik turned his phone off and stuffed it into the pocket of his suit. Then he pushed the door open and stepped down. He was swathed in a white suit with his gray mask on his face, and his hair was neatly tied up in a ponytail. 

He shoved his hands into his pocket and glanced directly in the direction he felt his little wife's presence and heard her voice.

The first person his eyes fell on was his little wife, who stood in front of a liquor store, and in front of her stood another young man he had never seen before. He could tell that Leia knew this man, and not just knew, but he was very close to her as he had his hand placed on her cheek and Leia was not reacting to it.

A low breath left Adrik's nose, and he leaned his butt on the car. His eyes suddenly spotted the Lamborghini parked on the roadside and his eyes flickered. He turned his attention to the two and patiently stood watching them and listening to their conversation. 

Shawn caressed Leia's cheek and gazed at her with eyes that held love and care. "Leia, you don't have to say anything. I know what happened and-"

"Shawn, what are you talking about?" Leia asked, completely confused.

A deep breath fled Shawn's nose, and he cupped both her cheeks with his hands, then gazed into her pitch-black pupils. "Leia, I know that you're married, but I also know that you didn't want it. You never agreed to it. I know that it was your father who sold you over to that over-rich dandy. But I promise, just give me a little while, I will find a way to free you from that scarred man." 

Adrik's eyes fluttered at the young man's word, who he already knew was by the name of Shawn, from when Leia spoke his name. 

A low breath escaped from his nose, and he shifted his gaze to Leia. How is she going to react? That he wants to know.

Leia stared at Shawn, and her lashes couldn't help but quiver. "Shawn, listen to this: I am totally fine and am happy in my marriage, so please don't do anything." She smiled at him as she said it, but Shawn shook his head at her. "No, you're lying to me, Leia. There is no way that you're happy living with that man and seeing him every day. I promised to marry you when I returned home, and I intend to keep that promise.. I will find a way to free you from that horrid guy and then we can get married, okay."
