Chapter 17
200 TOUCHETE
Hannah choked back tears, wiped her face haphazardly, paused her crying, and pushed him hard.
He was momentarily careless and fell to the ground. She, on the other hand, coldly snorted and sarcastically said, “Hmph, you laughed at me, now you are just as miserable as me. You deserve it!”
Shawn was almost laughing out of anger, but he didn’t blame her. He just held her hand and dragged her back home.
“Okay, Hannah, stop messing around. You’ve been out for so long, it’s time to go home.”
“I don’t want to!” Hannah shook off his hand. “I don’t want to go back to that house, don’t want to see James and Brielle getting married. Give me some more time, I’ll calm down outside and figure things out.”
“I won’t ruin their relationship. I will go back home only when I can accept their marriage. You don’t need to per- suade me to go back.”
Shawn remembered everything in reality and said firmly, “No, you have to come back with me today, otherwise Big Brother and Brielle will worry!”
Even though he said so, she still felt somewhat unwilling.
“I’ll be fine. Just explain it to them. Why do you want me to go back so badly? Do you need to see me embarrass my- self in front of them to be satisfied?”
“I’m not, don’t think like that. Whatever you say today, I will take you back.”
Shawn brooked no disobedience.
He dragged Hannah forcefully all the way, she refused to walk and he had to carry her on his shoulders, back to back, and brought her back forcefully.
When he arrived at the doorstep, he glanced at the few people inside still discussing the wedding, finally feeling re- lieved.
However, when I turned back to look at Hannah, I found that tears were streaming down her face, and she was crying so hard that her face had turned red.
She cried so hard for the first time.
Shawn’s heart trembled fiercely, feeling like it was being twisted.
“Hannah, why are you crying? Do you like my brother that much? What’s so good about him anyway?”
He didn’t realize how obvious the jealousy in his words was.
It was not because Brielle and her brother were jealous, but because of Hannah.

Hannah pushed him away, crying, “He was so gentle, always taking care of me, and so excellent. Isn’t it normal for me to like him?”
“What about me? Am I not as good as my brother? He said, looking jealous.”
She glanced at him with a hint of disdain, “Do I even need to say it? Of course not as good as James, what are you trying to do by comparing yourself to him? Don’t you like my sister? Why do you care about who I prefer?”
“Who said I liked your sister the most? The person I like the most now is clearly…”
You.
When he said this, Shawn’s mind went blank and he was completely stunned, taking a long time to come back to his
senses.
Was Hannah the person he liked more now?
He pressed tightly against his chest, feeling the area constantly burning.
Perhaps from the beginning, he didn’t like Brielle as much as he had imagined.
Similar to Hannah, it was completely normal to fall in love with the gentle and beautiful Brielle during their youth.
Brielle was so perfect that she met every guy’s fantasy of a future partner.
Even Shawn was no exception.
After Brielle and James died in a car accident, he was devastated and transferred all his anger onto Hannah.
He thought that if it weren’t for Hannah, his older brother and Brielle would never have been in trouble, so he de- ceived her into falling in love with him and went to great lengths to torment her.
Having lied for so long, he was almost starting to deceive himself.
As time passed, Shawn’s love for Brielle was no longer as intense as it once was.
The hatred towards Hannah, however, could never be erased.
Two lives lay between them, he couldn’t forgive her, let alone leave everything behind to love her.
So, they eventually reached the current deadlock.
Shawn really regretted not telling Hannah his true feelings.
Even in the moment before her death, he was still questioning her.
Now, he can finally have a second chance in his dreams, and he doesn’t want to miss this opportunity again!
