Chapter 8 He Never Let His Tenderness Show

Author: Mo Shengge
last update Last Updated: 2020-08-04 11:33:00
Quinn was lucky. Even after extensive bleeding, the baby survived.

Meanwhile, Shannon was finding it difficult to accept her circumstances. Her years in the prison had scarred her and triggered her depression. For a long while, she had been able to keep it under control, but this time, the blow was indeed too much for her to handle. Like a storm, it had shaken her faith.

Those with acute depression often oscillate between depression and violence. Instead of hurting others, they hurt themselves.

It was the same for Shannon. She needed to inflict injuries on her body. The pain was her only reminder that she was still alive.

She needed to survive, at least for John. Without her, he would be helpless and desolate.

After what she had done to Quinn, surely Sean would make her pay.

Indeed, he came to see Shannon after Quinn’ condition stabilized.

She was found prostrate on the bed. With ferocious aggressiveness, he clasped her shoulder and said, “Shannon, how could you be so cruel! Aft

    Shannon finally regained consciousness, and the first thing that she realized was that her body full of aches and pains. In the days that she was in a deep sleep, there was always someone clasping her hand and keeping her company. She had a feeling that the person was Sean. However, she dismissed the possibility almost immediately. It was ridiculous. The only person that he actually cared for was Quinn. He had nothing to do with her at all and did not even care whether or not she lived. Clearly, she must not flatter herself.Abruptly someone pushed the door open. Quinn was here, along with a chunky container of chicken soup.She pursed her lips into an awkward smirk as soon as she saw that Shannon was awake. “Shannon, I’ve brought you some chicken soup. What do you think? I’ve been such a wonderful friend to you, haven’t I?”With that said, she opened the container and attempted to splash the soup all over Shannon’s body.Shannon was aware of the impending danger, so she moved

    A muscular man seized John by the arm. The boy kept struggling to break free, but there was no way he could overcome the man’s strength.Suddenly, Quinn took out a sharp knife that dazzled under the sun. With a slash, she ruthlessly made a wound on the boy’s arm, and almost immediately, his arm became drenched with blood.The wound was painful indeed, but John did not even make a sound, for he knew that his mother would definitely be worried.“John!”Shannon cried out loud in agony. “Quinn, let go of John! I will not let you hurt him!” Tightly, she squeezed the phone in her hand as her anxiety surged. Quinn was aiming the knife at John’s body at this time.“Quinn, you can do anything you want with me! Let go of John! Don’t hurt him!”“Shannon, I may consider your offer.” Slowly she put down her knife as she said, “However, I need something in exchange for his life. I’ll let him live as long as you take his place!”Shannon was so worried that she might hurt John again so she co

    John was dead.Sean and his men had been searching for a week, but there was no sign of John anywhere.The area where John fell into was known to be inhabited by sharks. According to the search team, the blood from his wound might have drawn the sharks to him, thus making him easy prey. He might have been eaten by the sharks, which was why they could not find traces of his body anywhere.Shannon knew the reality very well. Her baby, John, was gone.The water was so cold and deep that there was no way John could survive the fall, especially with his body that was so soft and fragile.Shannon had said it over and over again—Quinn murdered her boy. An eye for an eye, she, as a murderer, deserved to be punished the same. Sadly no one believed a word she said.Quinn managed to fake a letter left behind by John, saying that he would rather take his own life than tie his mother down with his critical illness.Shannon stood there in disbelief. The phone was still clasped in her hand, wi

    “Shannon!”Sean looked at her with utter disbelief. In hasty steps, he went straight to her. He wanted to hold her close in his arms, but he was scared. He was fearful that he might not feel any warmth from her.“Shannon!”He spent the next few seconds anguishing about whether he had let his fear get the better of him. Eventually, he gathered his courage and closely, he clasped her body in his arms. There was no way he could hide the pain in his eyes. He squeezed her body with all his strength just so he could feel her again. Only through such physical contact could he express himself. He was scared that she might leave him forever.“Hang in there, Shannon! I won’t let anything happen to you! You’ll be fine!”Sean carried her in his arms and rushed to the hospital. Perhaps he was too distraught with fear that it affected his observation; he came to realize that he could not feel her heartbeat the entire time. She was not even breathing, too.“Shannon, don’t you leave me alone!

    Sam had been waiting for Sean outside the emergency room.Sean was brusque and impatient as he said to Sam, “Find out everything! I want to know what exactly happened to her in those years!” Even if they had a major argument, there was no reason for Julio to treat her with such savage violence by inflicting an injury to her that could disable her for life. “Duly noted.” He watched as Sean dashed into Shannon’s ward and pondered whether he should tell him the truth. Seconds later, he walked up to him again.He knew that Sean would be displeased that he had made a decision that he was not in a position to make, but he had to tell him the truth. The Gray family had always been generous to him, and he was still indebted to their help throughout the years.“Sir, I think there’s something that you should know.”“What’s the matter?”“I went to see young Mr. Gray a few days before the accident. He said that he needed my help, so I went to see him.”Sam paused for a moment to study hi

    “Ms. Gray has been suffering for the past five years.”His eyes strayed to Shannon, who was still lying on the hospital bed. He was reminded of the help that he had received from the Gray family throughout his years in school, and he had been a family friend ever since. Shannon was a very talented girl; her optimism was especially admirable. With a silver-spoon upbringing, her life should have been easy and trouble-free. Therefore, he could not imagine how she endured the years in prison.The findings only made him sigh. It was heart-wrenching for Sean to find out what she had been through over the years. Though difficult, the truth must be made known.“The inmates were instructed to give Ms. Gray a hard time. Almost every day, they tortured her, even the guards were involved, sometimes. She was always injured, and the most severe incident was the one where four of her ribs were broken. That was also when they permanently disabled her hand.”Another incident came to his mind. “Oh,

    Sean clenched his fists in exasperation. He never knew that she was deaf in one ear. How much pain had his beloved girl suffered?“Ms. Gray was already diagnosed with depression before her pregnancy. The child became her only reason to live. However, the sufferings were indeed too unbearably brutal for her to endure, and her depression became more severe over time. In the absence of hope, she cut her wrist just to put an end to her pain. Sometimes, her despair was so unbearable that not even the child could keep her alive.”Sean stared at Sam incredulously, for he never knew that she had attempted suicide several times before.He locked his gaze on her wrist to see if it was true. Indeed, many faint scars ran the length of her arm.Sean had lost faith in himself. He once made her a promise that he would spend his life keeping her safe, but all he had ever done was to cause her pain. If he had known what was going to happen, he would not have done as he did. However, there was no

    He somehow felt a perverse satisfaction from making her feel embarrassed.

    The doctors had briefly cleaned and wrapped Shannon’s wound on the way to the hospital. She was sent into the operating theater the second they arrived at the hospital. After eight hours of trying to run from the god of death, Shannon was pushed out from the operating theater.According to the doctor, the bullet was less than a centimeter away from Shannon’s heart.

    Sean’s gaze was ever gentle, and it made Shannon tear up even more.His eyes were full of pampering and love for Shannon, just like when they had first met each other. “I’m so sorry, Shannon. I truly regret that I’ve done so many evil things to you and even broke your heart.”“Shannon, I don’t deserve your forgiveness. So, don’t forgive me, but take good care.”“No matter what happens, you must take good care of yourself, Shannon.”I love you, but I don’t want you to feel sad for me, so I guess I’ll skip this phrase. After saying everything that he needed to tell Shannon, Sean calmly said, “Julio, just take my life; don’t hurt Shannon!”Sean took a step forward and stood in front of Julio. He did not try to defend himself or hide but waited for a shot from Julio.As Julio witnessed Sean’s bravery, he knew that he had been defeated.He was finally aware that he could never compete with Sean for Shannon’s heart. Julio was suffering from that awareness. However, the grudge he had

    “Julio, are you crazy?!”Startled by what he said, Shannon accidentally hit her head on the edge of the bed. Surprisingly, the pain helped her regain some energy.She saw a mug as she turned her head to the side, and she quickly grabbed the mug and crashed it onto the bedside table. The next thing she did was cut her wrist with one of the broken pieces of the cup.“Julio, I don’t love you. I don’t want a baby with you! I would rather die than have a baby with you!”Shannon’s quick action left Julio in shock! There was a deep and bleeding wound on her wrist when he managed to regain his attention. He was too stunned as he looked at the blood on her wrist.He could not be bothered to remove Shannon’s clothes anymore when he saw her hurting herself. He tightly hugged her in his embrace and uttered, “Shannon, why did you hurt yourself?! Am I so bad to the extent that you would rather die than become my wife?”Julio seemed hurt by her actions as he chuckled with grief. “Shannon, you w

She was dressed in a white wedding gown, and there was a mirror nearby. Looking into the mirror, she saw herself wearing very nice makeup.Suddenly, Shannon felt a sharp pain in her head as she tried to recall how she ended up here. She remembered that she was on the way to the morgue to see Sean. How did she wake up in a strange room with this odd outfit?Whatever the reason was, Shannon had no time to think it through thoroughly. What she had to do now was to find Sean.Desperately trying to get up,

    Shannon was eager to see Sean.She heard two nurses whispering at a corner when she rushed out of her ward.“What a waste; he was so handsome but died so young!”“True, such a misfortune. He is only about 27 or 28 years old. It was a horrible accident. He passed away even before he could make it to the operation theater.”“I heard that his family is quite rich; I guess he was fated not to be able to spend the money.”“Sigh. It’s sad for such a handsome man to die in such a pitiful way! His wife was at the scene of the accident and passed out while crying. She was sent to our hospital, but she is yet to awake!”“Sigh, what can she do even if she is awake!? She might as well not wake up since the first news she will get is the news of her husband’s death! It would be really pitiful for her!”…As Shannon listened to the conversation between the two nurses, her heart sank bit by bit.The man was very handsome, at the age of 27 to 28, his family was rich, his wife fainted at the s
