Chapter 175: He's Not Gonna Do It, Right?

"Huh? What do you mean? And hold on, are you by any chance related to that bastard?" Shawn raised his brows as he asked, and Ileus's eyes dwindled. "Who?"

"Adrik, the richest man in the world." He shrugged and abruptly drew his head back as he saw Ileus's face darken deeply. "Um..."

His body trembled a bit as he watched Ileus stand up from the sofa and walk towards him. "W-what are you doing?"

Ileus leaned down a bit so his face was close to his and harshly grabbed him by the chin. He narrowed his eyes, and a deadly glint flashed in his eyes. "Next time you call my brother a bastard in front of me, you won't live to see the daylight!" He threatened in a tone that sent chills down Shawn's body. "Watch your mouth!" A simple smile emerged on his lips, and he let go of his chin. He stepped back and shoved his hands into his pocket as he made his way back to the sofa to sit down. He crossed his legs and interlocked his hands. "Shall we continue from where we stopped?"

Shawn swallowed hard and slowly nodded his head. 

"Good. So you were asking why I brought you here." 

"Y-yes." Shawn nodded, and he smiled at him. "It's very simple and will benefit both of us." He smirked, and Shawn's eyes blinked in bewilderment. 

"W-what do you mean?" He asked with confusion evident in his tone, and Ileus chuckled softly. "I see your lover is married to my brother." 

Shawn's eyes waned, and he slowly folded his arms. "What does that have to do with you? And how will that benefit the both of us?" 

"Well, don't you feel that it is unfair and that you want to get back at her? I mean, if someone I love with everything breaks me that way, I won't let them off so easily. You have to be sensible." Ileus smiled mysteriously and waved at his butler to get him a cup of tea.

Shawn's brow creased deeply, and he shook his head at him. "I am sorry but... as much as I am hurt, I will never get back at Leia. I still love her and will never hurt her." He stated, in a tone that told Ileus that changing his mind would be a big hassle.

"I see..." Ileus received the cup of tea from his butler and sipped from it. "You're quite a pathetic man." He clicked his tongue and dropped the cup on the mini table.

"What do you mean? And how will this benefit you?" Shawn's face darkened, and he raised his eyebrows in a questioning manner.

"You could get your revenge on her and I could get my revenge too on my brother." He smirked, and Shawn's eyes fluttered. "Get revenge on her."

"Yes... you can have her, then maybe do whatever you want with her." He shrugged and grabbed the cup of tea to sip from it.

Shawn's eyes blinked in contemplation, and he lowered his head to stare at his laps. The scenes of what happened in the hospital replayed in his mind, and his hands unexpectedly balled into a fist. 

"I like where your thoughts are going." Ileus smirked at him, and he raised his orifices to stare at him. "May...I ask why you want to get revenge on your brother?"

Ileus halted drinking from the cup and lifted his gray eyes to look at him. He chuckled softly and slightly shook his head. "Let's say he took what belongs to me and I want it back." 

"I see... so you both are not on good terms."

"You can say that." He shrugged and adjusted the gold watch clasped around his wrist.

"Wait, if you guys aren't on good terms, why did you get so worked up when I called him a bastard?" Shawn questioned with deep confusion evident on his face.

Ileus' face switched to a stern one, and he stared at Shawn as though contemplating what to say. He blinked his eyes, and a mocking smile appeared on his face. "Maybe, we aren't on good terms and hate each other, but... it doesn't mean I will let any random person insult him right in front of me. He's my twin brother, and insulting him is like insulting me. Do you understand? " He raised his eyebrows, and Shawn slowly nodded his head.

"Good. Let me know your decision tomorrow. " With that being said, he stood up from the sofa and shoved his hands into his pockets. He turned around and proceeded to walk to his room.

"Wait! " Shawn hurriedly stood up from the couch and rushed up to him. 

"Anything?" Ileus halted and turned around to stare at him. 

"Um..." Shawn's eyes fluttered, and he swallowed. "Am I going to spend the night here?"

"Do you want to go home by this time of night?" Ileus questioned him back, and he blinked his eyes in realization and slowly shook his head. "Sorry." He turned around and strolled over to sit down on the sofa.

"That room is all yours. Don't bother sleeping on the couch." Ileus smiled at him and turned around, then made his way to his room.

Shawn stared at his disappearing back and a deep breath left his home. He's not going to agree to it, right?

The early morning sun shone down, showering its rays on every living creature. 

Mr. Adolpho grabbed his suit jacket from the sofa and slid into it. He glanced down at Rita, who had a nervous look on her face, and took a low breath.

"Pretty, just trust me. I know what I'm doing." He walked over to her and caressed her cheek. "I will be back in a few hours. Take care of yourself, alright." He smiled at her and she nodded in response.

He turned around and made his way out of the estate. His bodyguards, who were standing outside, hurriedly rushed to the Rolls Royce and pulled the door open for him. With a rigorous look on his face, Mr. Adolpho stepped in, and they shut the door. Two of his bodyguards scurried to take their seats in front of the car, and the driver started the car's engine.. With a slow reverse, they swiftly drove out of the compound and onto the toad.
