“Sean?” I called him subconsciously. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Then I regreted it. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But he heard me and looked up at me. Though the night was dark and I couldn’t see his eyes, I heard him laugh, “I didn’t like you calling my full name before. I wanted you to call me Sean. Now even if you call me by my full name, I’m happy.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“President Jessop, why are you still here?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
His words made me sad. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I don’t know.” Sean’s voice was a little melancholy. He stood up and asked me, “where are you going? Do you want me to drive you?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“No.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I didn’t want to tell him I was going to the hospital. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Since I met you, I’ll drive you.” Sean came up to me. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I saw his face but I thought he was a little haggard. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Maybe it was an illusion. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I wanted to leave alone but Sean didn’t agree. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I had no choice but to tell him that I was going to Sacred Heart Hospital. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Actually, I was in a dilemma. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
My brain told me to watch out for Sean because he supported Molly. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But my actions, my heart and my subconscious all trusted him. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Even I looked down on myself. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
We arrived at Sacred Heart Hospital. I went upstairs to see Sherry. Sean followed me. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I stood outside Sherry’s ICU. She lay there quietly with her eyes closed. She hadn’t changed. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The figures on the surrounding instruments didn’t seem to have changed much. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But some figures seemed to have changed. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Because I was not a medical student. I didn’t know much about it. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“My grandfather came to see her before.” Sean stood behind me and said. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Grandpa Jessop?” I turned to Sean and was surprised. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Yes.” Sean nodded. “Molly wanted to jump, so Grandma Carter called my grandfather. She wanted us to get married. But my grandfather immediately refused.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I can understand him.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Molly hurt me and I exposed her plagiarism. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
As a result, James’s impression of us became extremely bad. He must have said he didn’t want us to be her granddaughter-in-law. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“But after my grandfather came to see Grandma Carter, he changed his mind and called Molly and me home to allow the marriage.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I was a little shocked when Sean finished. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Did he agree? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Were they getting married? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Well, congratulations…” He hugged me from behind before I finished. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I heard his thin lips close to my ears and said, “June, I can marry her but I haven’t slept with her. I’ll never touch her in my life. You are the only woman I am willing to touch.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“President Jessop…” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Don’t call me that.” Sean held me from behind and asked me, “where do you live?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
His voice was a little hoarse and ambiguous. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I knew what would happen if I answered him. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But I was stupid and always confused by him. I told him where I lived. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
We entered a room. Sean picked me up and laid me gently on the bed. He pressed me, “June, I want you…” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I looked at him and asked, “you said you didn’t touch Molly. Her baby…” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“It’s not mine.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Sean’s answer shocked me! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“What?” I looked at him suspiciously, “how do you know?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
His hand was moving slowly. His black eyes looked at me seriously. “At least when I was conscious, I never touched her. At first, I thought it was mine, because I was drunk that day, and I thought of her as you…” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
He took my hair off my cheek. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
My whole face came out. He leaned down and kissed me on the cheek. “People say you look the same, but I don’t think so. She was pregnant after that day, so I’ve been skeptical.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“And then?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“On the day of her miscarriage, I had the baby specifically identified. The baby is not mine.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Sean said lightly. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I looked at him but I felt heartbroken. “Sean, she lied to you but you are very kind to her. If this is not love, what is love?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Sorry…” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Sean’s body was hot at this time. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
When he kissed me, I felt the hot breath spray on my face. It seemed to light me up. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
He had been touching me so I couldn’t help groaning. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The light was off. The moonlight was cold. I couldn’t see his expression and could only feel his movements. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
He guided me and filled me. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
My instinct made me hook his neck and bear the love he gave me at the moment. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
At last I fell asleep holding him. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I woke up with no one around me. I felt the bed subconsciously. It had a little temperature. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I looked around and found his black suit and leather shoes in the room. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
When I looked for him, I saw Sean coming out of the bathroom. He was not dressed. He was wrapped in a bath towel. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The water dripped down his short hair. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
He saw me wake up and suddenly fell on me. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I knew what he wanted to do, but I had to work today! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I’m sorry, I can’t…” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
At this time, I was awake. Thinking of my behavior last night, I thought I must be crazy. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Why did I promise him? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But Sean held me, “honey, I find I can’t live without you. I’ve been addicted to you since I first made love to you. I can’t quit.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“No. You will be my brother-in-law soon.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I pushed him away. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I got up and wrapped in a thin quilt and took my clothes into the bathroom and took a bath. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
By the time I came out, Sean had put on a suit and stood there. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I stood at the door looking at him awkwardly and said, “I will go to see grandma first and then go to work. You don’t have to drive me.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Then I will accompany you upstairs.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“No.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Maybe the sun shone on me during the day so I was awake. I knew I wanted to draw a line with him. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Sean followed me. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I knew he wouldn’t leave so I didn’t speak. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But when I went upstairs, I saw several people standing in front of Sherry’s ICU. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Each was a familiar face. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Marlin, Jessica and Molly… <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I was scared and wanted to leave. Marlin turned to see Sean behind me. He said, “Sean, you’re here.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
