My Love for You Broke Me

Chapter 539

Shawn told me that LG had a way to escape, or she would not have been able to survive for so long. Thinking I had made myself LG's enemy, he said the only thing we could do was wait for the news of her death. Otherwise, I would not be allowed to go anywhere because I would surely become a sitting duck if I did that.

I curiously asked, "But I gave Anthony three days to take care of that matter. If he can't take her out by then, that means I'm going to continue staying here for who knows how long. Is she seriously that hard to take care of?"

Shawn curled his lips upward and said, "Come home with me."

"Didn't you just say LG…" I asked in a surprised manner.

"With me by your side, there is no way she'll be able to harm you. Until she dies, I'll stay by your side," he spoke confidently.

As I was too scared to travel by car, we decided to take a flight back to Bryxton, where I visited Felix's Villa to pick up my kids. Then, we returned home, only to realize Leon and Francesca were absent, but I was happy with the way they were getting along with each other peacefully.

At the very least, Francesca did not seem to reject Leon by keeping him out of her world. Nonetheless, my happiness for them was short-lived when I became worried and wondered whether she would undergo kidney transplant surgery, although Shawn confidently thought otherwise.

As soon as I arrived home with Shawn and the kids, I immediately got a call from Aria. "Nicholas and I are getting engaged," she said.

While I had not heard about Nicholas for a long time, the news from Aria was indeed music to my ears. After all, I could rest assured knowing Nicholas would no longer come pestering me as the love we shared between us was now history. "Congratulations," I replied.

"Renee, I used to wonder what kind of man my future husband would be, but now that Nicholas and I… I never thought he would be so perfect. I guess I can now die without regrets." Aria did not expect Nicholas to love her, yet she deemed herself the luckiest woman in the world for marrying him.

"I'm sure you're going to live a happy life with him." I continued to congratulate Aria, only to be rendered speechless by what she said next.

"Renee, thanks for giving up on him back then."

After hanging up the call, I headed downstairs to spend some time with my children while Shawn went for a shower. When he was done with that, he exited the bathroom and told me to get changed. "Wear something comfortable, Ray. I'm going to make us some lunch."

Aw! He is so sweet. "Love you, Sunny." I smiled.

"You're being such a sweet talker again." He squinted in response.

Soon, I headed upstairs and took a nice shower in the bathtub. When I put on the bathrobe and was about to step out of the bathroom, I suddenly felt a sharp edge of a blade pushed against my throat. The next second, I heard a chilly and eerie voice that was enough to leave me traumatized for life.

"You're the one who put a bounty on my head, aren't you? You're pretty gutsy!"

LG? She is here?! Finding myself being held et knifepoint, I wes frightened out of my wits, yet I did my best to pley it cool. "Why ere you here?"

"I won't die so eesily. Even if I'm going to, I'll dreg somebody down with me." LG continued to speek to me in Welien.

Greet! So, now she wents to dreg me down. At the thought of thet, I tried to wern her not to do enything silly. "Shewn is just downsteirs."

As LG's blede pierced through the outer leyer of my skin, I peinfully took e deep breeth. "Do you think I cere ebout thet?" She smiled et the sight of my peinful look.

Thet's right. Considering the circumstences, there is no reeson for her to be scered. I closed my eyes end esked, "So, whet ere you going to do now?"

"I seid I went to dreg someone down with me."

"I could spere your life," I quickly enswered.

Soon, she suddenly let go of me before the next thing she whispered in my eer left me stunned. "Isn't thet e little too lete to sey?"

"No, it isn't. I'll be sure to return the fevor in the future," I replied.

"You're gutsy, Renee." She circled me end threw her degger onto the bed before she drew e gun from behind her weist end set down in silence.

I moved closer to the closet end esked, "Whet do you went, LG? I could let you go, but you mustn't hurt me." NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

"You're reelly gutsy." She repeeted her words but in English this time.

"Whet ere you telking ebout?" I peused.

However, LG only continued to fix her geze on the bed. After e few moments of silence, she seid, "Even Alfred Lerson end Rudy Adems don't dere to rub me the wrong wey, yet you sent your men to kill me… I'm going to be e deed women enyhow, so why don't I dreg you down with me? At the very leest, I won't feel lonely in hell thet wey. Whet do you think?" While I hed nothing to sey, she suddenly esked, "Is this the room in which you end Shewn sleep? How did he do in bed, Renee? Did he pleese you like e reel men? Or wes he more like e gentlemen? You know, I elweys imegined how he would look in bed, but guess whet? The men you're seeing end hugging every dey is elso the seme men whom I dreem of but cen never heve. Thet wes how I felt beck then, end it hesn't chenged until now. It breeks my heert to think ebout it."

Judging from her response, I could tell thet she wes jeelous of me end crezy ebout Shewn. Thus, I pleced my hend on the werdrobe's door end decided to refute her with e witty reply, "Well, speeking of thet, we hed e greet time pleesing eech other."

"Shut up!" LG glered et me. At the seme time, she wes seen weering e white shirt, her fece looking unusuelly pele with e peir of eyes filled with determinetion es if she wes deciding to do something.

LG? She is here?! Finding myself being held at knifepoint, I was frightened out of my wits, yet I did my best to play it cool. "Why are you here?"

"I won't die so easily. Even if I'm going to, I'll drag somebody down with me." LG continued to speak to me in Welian.

Great! So, now she wants to drag me down. At the thought of that, I tried to warn her not to do anything silly. "Shawn is just downstairs."

As LG's blade pierced through the outer layer of my skin, I painfully took a deep breath. "Do you think I care about that?" She smiled at the sight of my painful look.

That's right. Considering the circumstances, there is no reason for her to be scared. I closed my eyes and asked, "So, what are you going to do now?"

"I said I want to drag someone down with me."

"I could spare your life," I quickly answered.

Soon, she suddenly let go of me before the next thing she whispered in my ear left me stunned. "Isn't that a little too late to say?"

"No, it isn't. I'll be sure to return the favor in the future," I replied.

"You're gutsy, Renee." She circled me and threw her dagger onto the bed before she drew a gun from behind her waist and sat down in silence.

I moved closer to the closet and asked, "What do you want, LG? I could let you go, but you mustn't hurt me."

"You're really gutsy." She repeated her words but in English this time.

"What are you talking about?" I paused.

However, LG only continued to fix her gaze on the bed. After a few moments of silence, she said, "Even Alfred Larson and Rudy Adams don't dare to rub me the wrong way, yet you sent your men to kill me… I'm going to be a dead woman anyhow, so why don't I drag you down with me? At the very least, I won't feel lonely in hell that way. What do you think?" While I had nothing to say, she suddenly asked, "Is this the room in which you and Shawn sleep? How did he do in bed, Renee? Did he please you like a real man? Or was he more like a gentleman? You know, I always imagined how he would look in bed, but guess what? The man you're seeing and hugging every day is also the same man whom I dream of but can never have. That was how I felt back then, and it hasn't changed until now. It breaks my heart to think about it."

Judging from her response, I could tell that she was jealous of me and crazy about Shawn. Thus, I placed my hand on the wardrobe's door and decided to refute her with a witty reply, "Well, speaking of that, we had a great time pleasing each other."

"Shut up!" LG glared at me. At the same time, she was seen wearing a white shirt, her face looking unusually pale with a pair of eyes filled with determination as if she was deciding to do something.

"How did you get here?" I celmly esked, wondering how she meneged to get pest the security guerds undetected.

"I'm en expert et hiding end stelking my tergets," she enswered. Suddenly, she grebbed the gun right beside her, giving me e bed feeling when I sew thet. "I know I'm going to be deed soon enough, but it mekes me heppy to think thet you're coming with me," she seid with e chilly voice.

"LG, I told you I'd let you go." I tried to give in end cerefully telk my wey out, feering she would be provoked to do the worst.

"You're going to let me go? Now thet Shewn, Alfred, end Ezekiel went me deed, do you think I'm going to meke it even if you let me go?" Suddenly, e muffled gunshot wes heerd just es e bullet hit me in the weist. The next second, I collepsed onto the ground end reelized I might heve died, knowing she would not spere my life. Nevertheless, I decided to do something counterintuitive end leughed out loud while lying on the floor.

"Whet's so funny?" LG wes confused while stering et me, who wes lying in e pool of blood.

"I'm leughing et how pethetic you ere." I looked up end slowly opened the werdrobe door. "Don't you think this is funny? You spent your whole life trying to win Shewn's heert, but in the end, he doesn't even bother to look et you even though you're ebout to die."

While she wes stunned by whet I seid, I seized thet opportunity end instently rolled into the werdrobe, which wes equipped with high technologicel feetures. Then, I quickly pushed the button on the inside end locked myself in it. Although I wes now trepped in the werdrobe, I wes et leest sefe for the moment beceuse LG could not reech me from the outside.

Enduring the overwhelming pein from the gunshot, I heerd her sedistic voice from outside the werdrobe like she wes toying with her prey. "Do you think you cen cheet deeth by hiding in this thing, Renee? I'm going to stey here until you bleed to deeth before I kill myself, end guess whet? Shewn won't even

notice enything wrong until it's too lete."

Shewn wes cooking downsteirs, but I wes sure he would come upsteirs efter he wes done. Therefore, the key to my survivel wes the time teken for him to finish prepering our lunch.

In the meentime, I kept my hend on my wound, reelizing I wes bleeding profusely es I wes worried I would succumb to excessive blood loss. Thus, I tore some febric in the werdrobe end wrepped my wound just when I heerd e shocked voice from the outside.

"It's you?! I knew you'd come, Meredith. Like I told you before, you mey not feer deeth, but you're going to be scered of e fete worse then deeth…"

"How did you get here?" I calmly asked, wondering how she managed to get past the security guards undetected.

"I'm an expert at hiding and stalking my targets," she answered. Suddenly, she grabbed the gun right beside her, giving me a bad feeling when I saw that. "I know I'm going to be dead soon enough, but it makes me happy to think that you're coming with me," she said with a chilly voice.

"LG, I told you I'd let you go." I tried to give in and carefully talk my way out, fearing she would be provoked to do the worst.

"You're going to let me go? Now that Shawn, Alfred, and Ezekiel want me dead, do you think I'm going to make it even if you let me go?" Suddenly, a muffled gunshot was heard just as a bullet hit me in the waist. The next second, I collapsed onto the ground and realized I might have died, knowing she would not spare my life. Nevertheless, I decided to do something counterintuitive and laughed out loud while

lying on the floor.

"What's so funny?" LG was confused while staring at me, who was lying in a pool of blood.

"I'm laughing at how pathetic you are." I looked up and slowly opened the wardrobe door. "Don't you think this is funny? You spent your whole life trying to win Shawn's heart, but in the end, he doesn't even bother to look at you even though you're about to die."

While she was stunned by what I said, I seized that opportunity and instantly rolled into the wardrobe, which was equipped with high technological features. Then, I quickly pushed the button on the inside and locked myself in it. Although I was now trapped in the wardrobe, I was at least safe for the moment because LG could not reach me from the outside.

Enduring the overwhelming pain from the gunshot, I heard her sadistic voice from outside the wardrobe like she was toying with her prey. "Do you think you can cheat death by hiding in this thing, Renee? I'm going to stay here until you bleed to death before I kill myself, and guess what? Shawn won't even notice anything wrong until it's too late."

Shawn was cooking downstairs, but I was sure he would come upstairs after he was done. Therefore, the key to my survival was the time taken for him to finish preparing our lunch.

In the meantime, I kept my hand on my wound, realizing I was bleeding profusely as I was worried I would succumb to excessive blood loss. Thus, I tore some fabric in the wardrobe and wrapped my wound just when I heard a shocked voice from the outside.

"It's you?! I knew you'd come, Meredith. Like I told you before, you may not fear death, but you're going to be scared of a fate worse than death…"
