My Love for You Broke Me

Chapter 479

When May mentioned that Sir was hiding something from her, I felt my heart skip a beat as I remembered what

Rudy had told me that night. If May discovered that Sir had something to do with Alba's death…

I didn't dare to imagine, nor could I imagine, what would happen.

I didn't even know the whole truth, so I had been keeping this from May.

However, it seemed like May had sensed something wasn't right.

Pretending like I didn't know what she was talking about, I asked her, "What can he hide from you, and what do you

suspect he's hiding? Did he cheat on you?"

May rolled her eyes. "Stop making absurd guesses."

I smiled cheekily, and May hugged my arm while we headed outside, where I then went over and sat beside Shawn.

"Here, drink some water."

Shawn's long fingers picked up the cup, and he took a sip. Afterward, I grabbed his arm and rested my head on his

shoulder, to which May criticized after noticing us, "Renee, you're almost becoming a human-sized keychain. Can't

you guys slow down with the PDA in public?"

While rubbing my head against Shawn's shoulders, I argued, "I like Shawn, and I like the smell of him too. What's

more, I like sticking with him. Don't you have a husband as well? You can do it too!"

Now, I was more and more proficient in sweet-talking and no longer hid my feelings for Shawn, which was entirely

different from how I used to be.

I had changed quite a bit in these two years!

With a roll of her eyes, May joked, "You've almost wiped all the powder on your face onto your husband. Hahaha!

I'm just joking."

"I just went for a swim, so I don't have any makeup on."

"Tsk! I admire your carefree life so much."

The addition of May and I interrupted Shawn and Sir's conversation. Sir smiled while gently praising, "Mrs. Xenos,

you are born with a beautiful face, so you look just as pretty with or without makeup, and my dear missus is the

same as well."

'My dear missus'…Sir is being so sweet! I exclaimed inside.

I looked at May and found her blushing.

Since Sir and May had only gotten married, their relationship hadn't stabilized, so they wouldn't be as carefree as

Shawn and me when interacting. Therefore, each small action or sweet word exchanged between them would be

enlarged. To be honest, I felt like May couldn't stand being flirted with. Otherwise, she wouldn't be blushing and

avoiding Sir's gaze at this moment while trying to avert everyone's attention onto me. "Renee, are you and your

husband going to hold a wedding ceremony?"

Hearing that, I immediately turn to look at Shawn. "You should be asking him that."

Shawn usually disliked entertaining others, but he was respectful toward my best friend, May. He lowered his voice

to answer her question, "Yes, we are waiting for New Year, or perhaps wait until the children are old enough to be

the page boy and flower girl at our wedding. In any case, we've already registered our marriage, so Mrs. Xenos has

no way to escape from me. More importantly, I need to spend some time planning the perfect wedding ceremony."

He was very careful on this matter.

A short pause later, he averted his gaze onto Sir. "What about you guys? Any plans of having a wedding

ceremony?"

May pursed her lips and kept quiet while Sir replied slowly, "A wedding ceremony is a complex event. We can't plan

everything in a short timeframe, and we aren't in a hurry as well, so we might be having it after you guys have

yours."

Shawn didn't comment on that, and I interrupted. "'We aren't in a hurry.' You said it as if we were forcing you to

have a wedding ceremony. Also—"

May suddenly and deliberately interjected, "Also, I was previously married, so it doesn't matter whether I have a

wedding ceremony or not."

Having nothing to say, I felt sad for her. She humbled herself before him, but why did she mention this?

Sir felt resigned and cooed, "May."

May stood up. "I'm off to work out today's account."

After that, she quickly got up and left. I looked at Sir and asked, "What's wrong with her?"

Sir sighed and explained, "She has been having mood swings lately, which I think must be related to Rudy. They've

been contacting each other in secret."

Shawn asked, "Didn't you stop them?"

"Habit cures habit. Her habit is related to Rudy, and the way she could cure that habit is through Rudy. Since I can't

stop them, my only option is to turn a blind eye."

Puzzled, I asked, "Don't you feel jealous?"

Sir had liked May for five years, so it was impossible for him not to feel jealous, but then again, he must have

trusted her so much to the point that he turned a blind eye to her and Rudy still contacting each other. He must

have trusted that she wasn't a heartless woman.

"I trust her." His answer was what I expected.

Smiling, I assured him, "I trust her too."

May had always been someone who knew her boundaries, so she wouldn't do anything that would hurt Sir.

However, Rudy's existence was indeed an eyesore.

While getting up, I announced, "I'll head inside to check on her."

When I entered the teahouse, I picked up a cat and lowered my head to talk to it. "Hey, there, little kitty. Ask your

owner what's been bothering her and why did she say what she did just now?"

May couldn't hold back her laughter. "What's with you?"

I asked her, "Why did you talk about yourself that way just now?"

"I was angry for no reason."

With a firm tone, I denied her explanation, "You can't get angry without any reason. That's impossible."

After sighing, she said, "I just remembered something."

I pestered on and asked, "What is it?"

"I overheard his conversation with his nephew on the phone."

I raised my eyebrow. "And?"

"To quote his nephew, 'Uncle Alfred, Dad says I have an aunt now, but she is an ordinary woman. How could my

aunt be an ordinary woman? You have to marry a fairy!"

"And it's got to you, huh?" I inquired.

"When he said he wasn't in a hurry to hold a wedding ceremony, I think he might not have even considered one. He

is probably worried that his family won't accept me…"

She paused for a bit before asking me, "Am I asking for too much? I feel like I don't have the right to ask for so

much, but I just can't control myself! Renee, I think I'm starting to care about Alfred."

Has May developed feelings for Sir? I wondered.

I wasn't very sure of that, but I knew that Sir was very attentive toward her and had exercised a lot of effort on her.

After all, he had been secretly admiring her for five years!

"May, you have to be clear about your feelings."

Only she could help herself in this matter.

…

It was very late when Shawn and I arrived home. On the way home, I asked him why Sir looked for him, and he

answered honestly, "He hates Rudy and wants to get rid of him as soon as possible."

"And what's it got to do with you?"

"He wants me to help him."

"And you refused him."

My tone was firm as I could sense that Shawn and Rudy's relationship was stronger than his and Sir's. Moreover, he

refused to help Rudy deal with Sir before, so it was impossible that he would agree to go against Rudy for Sir. What

he might do was use his power to protect Rudy because as long as Rudy was in Bryxton, Sir wouldn't be able to do

anything!

"Yes. I won't help him."

Shawn rubbed my head while elaborating, "In comparison to Sir Larson, I'd rather engage with Rudy. Although Rudy

keeps on going against me and even locked me up in prison, our rivalry has been going on for many years, so I'm

familiar with him inside out!"

It was easier to control a person one knew inside out, and Sir was too mysterious and unpredictable to be

controlled. Moreover, the more mysterious a person was, the more that person was a potential danger.

"Don't get fooled by our politeness with each other. Nobody can be your friend forever, so Ray, you must

remember that besides those you are very familiar with and are very sure of their character, don't trust anyone."

Shawn seemed to be vaguely teaching me something, and it piqued my interest. I asked him, "Whom do you trust

the most?
