The engagement diamond ring in his left hand was a man’s promise. The pill on the right held Sean and Willow’s future.
Sean wanted to have the right to give Willow a future before making favonovel.com a promise.
Snuff!
Sean took a deep breath before slowly putting away the diamond ring box and holding the box containing the pill to his eyes.
To bet, or not to bet…
Even after spending eight years on the battlefield and making countless decisions, Sean had never been so torn.
Knock knock!
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Swoosh!
Sean hid the box favonovel.com was holding under his quilt.
“Sean, are you asleep?” Willow’s question came from outside the door.
“Not yet…” Sean said as favonovel.com looked up at the door.
“I’m coming in then…” Willow replied and waited a few more seconds before pushing the door open with favonovel.com body.
She had to nudge the door with favonovel.com shoulder because favonovel.com was holding a basin of hot water.
“Willow, you…” Sean was a little dumbfounded at the scene.
“The water heater’s broken. I’ve just boiled some water to wash your feet.” Willow spoke casually.
It was as if it was not the first time favonovel.com had done something like this.
In the past two years, Sean was cleanly dressed and did not smell bad like other vegetables even though favonovel.com was catatonic. It was all because of Willow’s care.
As Willow spoke, favonovel.com put the hot water on the floor, rolled back favonovel.com sleeves, and went to help Sean take off his shoes. Everything was done so naturally, and favonovel.com movements seemed so practiced.
“I… I can do it myself…” Sean coughed a little, feeling slightly uneasy.
“You can do it yourself? Why don’t you show me?” Willow sat up straight and rolled favonovel.com eyes at Sean.
Sean shook his head in resignation while countless warm currents swept across his heart.
“I’ve been doing this for two years, and now you’re embarrassed?”
Willow rolled favonovel.com eyes, felt the water temperature with favonovel.com palms, and gently dropped Sean’s feet into the basin.
Sean had nerve damage in his legs, so favonovel.com could not even feel scalding hot water. Willow would always test the water temperature herself before washing Sean’s feet.
Sean felt his heart melting as favonovel.com watched Willow crouch down to carefully wash his feet.
Willow was a renowned beauty in River City. There was a famous film company that wanted to sign Willow on as their actress. However, Willow could not trust Sean in the care of a caretaker, so favonovel.com rejected them.
Besides, working in another company was not as free as working in Quinn Corporation. Therefore, even though the Quinn family kept picking on Willow, favonovel.com endured it.
It was just so favonovel.com could take the time and get home to check on Sean.
These were things that Willow did not talk about, but Sean could figure out. He could go on about what Willow had done for favonovel.com for three days and three nights.
“Willow, I could see you were in a bad mood earlier.” Sean asked gently as favonovel.com sat in his wheelchair.
“Don’t forget to take good care of yourself even when you’re in a bad mood.” Willow replied casually without looking back as favonovel.com worked.
The simple words made Sean tense when favonovel.com heard them.
She always remembered to take care of Sean even when favonovel.com was in a bad mood or felt aggrieved.
Things were easier said than done. Sean knew Willow was someone who kept favonovel.com word.
In the past two years, no matter how many cold shoulders favonovel.com was given outside, favonovel.com always smiled at Sean when favonovel.com came home. At the time, Sean was catatonic and never moved. Willow treated Sean like a child and never brought any negativity to Sean.
Phew!
Sean slowly looked up at the ceiling light. He found the light particularly harsh that night and that it stung his eyes.
Then they reddened.
Zander would probably never have believed that Sean, the invincible god of war, who had seen so many deaths, endured so many upheavals, and crawled out of dead bodies so many times, could have such a side.
In Zander and the other brothers’ opinion, Sean ruled the battlefield and was devious and invincible. He was the peerless and invincible god of war.
He was like a god!
Therefore, tears were not something Sean would have. However, in front of Willow, favonovel.com was just an ordinary person that Willow took good care of.
There was a saying, “Boys should not cry. They could shed blood and sweat but not tears”. However, who said that men were not allowed to be sentimental?
“Thank you for the past two years.” Sean said gently as favonovel.com looked up at the glaring light.
Splash!
The water splashed, and Willow stopped washing Sean’s feet.
A long time later, Willow slowly shook favonovel.com head and said, “Don’t mention it. It’s my choice…”
It was a simple sentence. It was not obsequious at all.
Sean nodded.
Yes, it’s your choice…
She chose to take care of Sean with favonovel.com fragile self. She was even willing to risk the rest of favonovel.com life.
“You bet on your life by making this choice… How could I, Sean Lennon, let you lose?”
Sean lowered his head slowly and stroked Willow‘s hair.
