Chapter 5 He Was About To Give Her Away

The necklace that was given to her by Sean was an absolute treasure, which was worth a great deal of money. The pawnbroker certainly recognized its value, but he took advantage of her unfortunate situation for his own benefit. He offered to pay her only 80,000 dollars for the necklace, and not a penny more.She sneered at the fickleness of relationships. All it took was 80,000 dollars to sell off one’s heart. Nonetheless, the money was still insufficient to pay for John’s medication. She was still short of 30,000.Her phone started ringing as soon as she arrived at the hospital. It was Sean on the line.He held his phone up in an unbelievably firm grip to the point where the veins on the back of his hand stood out so clearly, as a sign of his indignation. Her betrayal angered him, but at the same time, troubled about the fact that she was walking alone in the downpour. Concerned for her safety, he sent his personal assistant, Sam Lowe, to follow and observe her closely, only to di

Chapter 6 A Heart-Wrenching Experience

Sean caught sight of Ken’s hand on Shannon’s waist and scowled very subtly.Under normal circumstances, Ken could have lost an arm.However, Sean did not let any of his resentment show. Instead, he lifted the corners of his mouth and gave her a scornful smile as he said, “Is Mr. Hann interested in the lady that I’ve brought with me tonight?”Ken stared at Shannon’s pretty face in amazement as he replied, “Beautiful, so beautiful.”“If you’re interested, please, help yourself. Have fun.” Sean sneered at Shannon and continued, “All she cares about is money. She can be a bitch to anyone who pays.”Ken was overjoyed. “Rest assured, my beautiful lady, that I have more than enough money to pay you. All you need to do is to please me, and the money will be all yours!”“Here! Have a toast!”Hurriedly, Ken offered her a brand new bottle of brandy.The liquor was giving her a stomach ache, but she had to drink it. She gritted her teeth in reluctance as she accepted the bottle. Without ad

Chapter 7 A Living Hell

Shannon felt as if she had just been struck by lightning. She would have already collapsed on the floor if she had not leaned against the wall for support.‘Such absurd ludicrosity,’ she thought. Sean had just killed her child and yet he was ready to have another baby with this stepmother of hers.Quinn looked at Shannon with hatred in her eyes. If she could, she would make Shannon feel bad in every way possible just to feel a little more at ease.Meanwhile, Sean wept for her. The man of great power and strength was seen crying when he heard about the news of Shannon’s miscarriage. In a bar that was checkered with dazzling neon light, he sat there pondering over the news and wept bitter tears. Quinn was infuriated, for she could not accept that her man was crying over another woman.Quinn looked at Shannon with an attitude of patronizing superiority. “Shannon, did you know why Sean wanted to terminate your pregnancy?”“It is because he’s chosen me over you,” she added, hastily.

Chapter 8 He Never Let His Tenderness Show

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.

Chapter 9 When There’s No Love, Everything Else Is Just A Joke

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

Chapter 10 She Killed John

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

Chapter 11 Shannon’s Suicide Attempt

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

Chapter 12 Mr. Ford, You’re Such A Ruthless Man

“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!

Chapter 13 John Was Indeed His Son

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

Chapter 14 The Indignity And Humiliation That She’d Suffered

“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,
