The ward was empty. William Guillen had already left, and Fluffy Zane was still in a daze, blankly staring at the doorway.
「...」
"Where has Thomas Shannon gone?"
Sophie Sullivan went downstairs and searched around but couldn’t find Thomas Shannon. She then went to the courtyard and asked the man in black.
"Young Master and Miss Shaw have gone out."
Sophie thought she had misheard. She frowned and raised her voice, "What did you say?"
"The Young Master and Miss Shaw left one hour ago," the man in black repeated.
This ti, Sophie was sure she hadn’t misheard. That bastard, Thomas Shannon, had actually taken Alia Shaw out!
Where were they going together?
Why did they leave her behind?
Sophie turned around and walked back. How infuriating!
In a large amusent park in City T, Alia Shaw took Thomas Shannon on the Ferris wheel.
As the Ferris wheel gradually rose into the sky, Alia Shaw gazed intently at the handso Thomas Shannon sitting opposite her. "Thomas, have you heard of the legend of the Ferris wheel?"
Thomas Shannon’s eyebrow tips lifted slightly. "What legend?"
"It is said that lovers who confess their feelings on the Ferris wheel will eventually break up."
"Is that so?" Thomas Shannon still seed indifferent, as if he had no interest in such lines used to fool won.
"Yes."
Alia Shaw smoothed her hair. "Thomas, I actually can’t tell when exactly I fell in love with you. It’s just that one day, I suddenly realized you were no longer by my side. The panic and helplessness overwheld . I clearly rember that you promised to protect for a lifeti at that ti."
She looked at him, her eyes filled with cautious hope, "Thomas, is that promise still valid now?"
Had he really said such foolish words back then? Thomas Shannon began to doubt himself. He was dismissive. "Samuel, don’t you understand the aning of ’tis change’? If you had agreed to when I said this, then this promise would be valid for a lifeti. But you missed that opportunity. Now, this promise is just a aningless statent, understand?"
Alia Shaw bit her lip and nodded in embarrassnt.
What she didn’t tell him was that although couples who confessed their love on the Ferris wheel would ultimately break up, it was said that those who kissed at the highest point of the wheel would be together forever.
As the Ferris wheel slowly ascended and reached its peak, Alia Shaw stood up. "Thomas..."
"Hmm?"
"I love you."
Alia Shaw sat beside him and leaned in to kiss him.
Before her lips could touch his thin lips, Thomas Shannon rcilessly pushed her away and frowned coldly, "What are you doing?"
Alia Shaw felt a humiliation she had never experienced before, and tears welled in her eyes, starting to fall without warning. "Thomas, can’t you really give another chance?"
"I thought I had made it very clear."
"Then why did you agree to accompany on the Ferris wheel? Why are you so nice to , causing to misunderstand?"
Alia Shaw’s tears fell like rain as she accused him, sentence by sentence.
The man looked at her with his cold eyes, his indifference terrifying. He said, "Samuel, you need to calm down."
To hell with calming down!
She didn’t want to calm down. She knew exactly what she was doing and saying; she was voicing the questions that had been burning in her heart.
If he couldn’t offer her any real relationship, why had he been so good to her?
「That evening.」
Thomas Shannon and Alia Shaw entered the villa one after the other.
Sophie Sullivan was sitting on the sofa, pursing the corner of her mouth, and looking at Thomas Shannon expressionlessly.
