My Love for You Broke Me

Chapter 594

Chapter 594 You Are Generous

After hanging up the call, I told Ian with a smile, "I can keep you company until Sunny arrives."

Ian rolled his eyes at me. "A lover is more important than friends, huh?"

"Well, I wouldn't dare to disobey Sunny."

"You disobey him all the time."

Out of nowhere, Ian started teasing me. "Ree, how did you win Sunny's heart? Everyone knows that he's distant and aloof."

"I have no idea either. After all, there's nothing special about me, and I was ill most of the time back then. However, I was very confident. I didn't only confess my love to him but also tried to woo him. On top of everything, I insisted that he respond."

Ian looked like he had just discovered a big secret. "You wooed Sunny first? I thought he was the one who took the initiative."

"What do you mean?" I felt there were some underlying meanings behind his words.

Ian replied with a smile, "You know what I mean."

I couldn’t help but snap. "You are shameless." Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

"Alright. I have to go back to work."

"Okay. I'll wait for him here."

After finishing up his coffee, Ian rose from the chair. Then, he thought of something and said, "Sunny will be busy with work, so you might have to wait."

"It's fine. I can wait for him."

"You can stroll around. There's a shopping mall nearby."

"Okay. I'll see what to do when Sunny arrives."

After Ian was gone, I estimated how much longer it would take Shawn to come. When I was certain he would arrive soon, I ordered a cup of coffee for him.

The weather was lovely in Espoo that day. The sky was dotted with almost transparent clouds, so I rested my chin on my palm and looked out to enjoy the scenery. Since I was in a foreign country, everything was enticing and new.

Despite that, this place was his home—the one he truly regarded as his home. His company was also located in this place.

A handsome face suddenly appeared in front of me. He bent his back and held my gaze at eye level. His eyes were dark and beautiful. They seemed to contain countless stars—bright and attractive—but they were also as distant and cold as a moon. His eyelashes were long and thick. His brows were dense and neat, which made him look masculine and charming.

While I was smiling, he stuck out two fingers and tapped on the glass window with his back to the sun. His fingers were at the same level as my forehead.

I had to admit I was aroused.

I also stuck out two fingers and pressed them against the window. Shawn put on a gentle smile and muttered, "Babe."

Although I couldn't hear him, I knew he was calling me babe.

With a smile, I called out, "Shawn."

With a smile, I called out, "Shawn."

He hated it when others called him by his name, but he allowed me to do that in private.

Shawn straightened up and rounded the window before entering the cafe. He took off his coat and sat down beside me. I took his arm and asked, "Do you feel hot? Your suit looks thick."

"Well, I rarely leave the company. Anyway, it's not very hot."

There were not many people in the cafe. Despite that, he still caught every woman's attention. They fished out their phones and sneakily took photos of him.

Feeling awkward, I asked gently, "Do you want to go somewhere else?"

"No need for that. They won't come up to me."

Shawn picked up my glass of juice and took a sip. I pointed at the cup of coffee beside it. "I ordered it for you."

He put down the juice and held my gaze for a long time before he extended his hand to stroke my face. Despite his monotonous voice, he said gently, "We haven't seen each other for only a day."

I subconsciously asked, "What do you mean?"

"Nothing. I just wanted to drink some juice to quench my thirst."

"Oh. Do you want to stay here with me?"

Shawn looked around and shifted his attention to the building in the distance. After pondering for a moment, he asked, "Do you want to shop around?"

I remembered Ian saying that Shawn had some work to deal with.

As such, I shook my head and replied, "Not really."

"Why don't you go to my company with me, then?"

Elated, I dipped my head. "Sure."

Suddenly, Shawn touched my face and said, "You're so sweet, Mrs. Xenos."

The man had always been a sweet talker. I initially wanted to kiss him, but when I realized that there

were people around us, I gave up on that idea. I picked up his coat and rose from the chair before taking his slightly cold hand. "Let's go to your company. When you're done with work, I want to go on a date with you."

He got to his feet. "Sure. Anything for you, Mrs. Xenos."

Shawn didn't put on his coat. I held it in my arms while he took my hand and brought me to his company.

The moment he appeared, everyone in the company came up to him and greeted him. All of a sudden, he stopped in his tracks and announced, "The person beside me is Mrs. Xenos, so give her your utmost respect. Her words hold as much weight as mine. Anyone who doesn't take her seriously will bear the consequences."

A bold person asked, "Mr. Xenos, when both of you get married, will you give us bonuses?"

The person was none other than Emma. It seemed that she had just arrived at the company.

Shawn replied, "That goes without saying."

Then, he led me to his office.

The moment we entered the place, I said, "I came to your company yesterday, and Diego introduced me to everyone. They were all polite to me."

"I know."

Shawn knew everything I did.

"Okay. Go ahead and deal with your work."

"Although Diego has introduced you to everyone, it's different when I do it myself."

Shawn wanted to personally introduce me to all his employees.

I walked up to him and asked, "How much will you give them as bonuses?"

Since Shawn promised them, it meant that he had agreed to it.

"I haven't given the amount any thought. Waylen will make the arrangements."

"I was just curious. I believe you have work to do, so please go ahead."

Shawn then turned on his laptop and focused on work while I nestled on the couch and watched a drama. Soon, a well-dressed Waylen entered the office. While they talked about work-related matters, Shawn suddenly asked me, "How much do you think we should give?"

I turned to him and asked, "Huh?"

"Waylen asked me how much money we should give the employees as bonuses."

"Is it up to me?" I asked.

Shawn questioned calmly, "So, how much do you think it should be?"

"Why don't we give every person 999? Will it make you look stingy?"

There were many employees in Shawn's company. If he had to give everyone 999, that would be a huge expense.

Hearing that, Shawn told Waylen, "Give everyone 9,999 and two roses."

I couldn't believe that he multiplied the number I mentioned by ten.

I said with a smile, "You are generous, Shawn."

Although he was wealthy, that was a lot of money to give away.

Nevertheless, I reckoned that it was fine, for it would make everyone happy.

A tactful Waylen said, "Thanks, Mrs. Xenos."

"I wasn't—"

Shawn cut me off and told Waylen, "There's something I need you to do. Alfred contacted me in the morning. You'll deal with the matter for him."

"Yes, Mr. Xenos."

After Waylen was gone, I asked, "What does Sir want you to help him with? I think it's not work- related."

The man asked curiously, "Why do you think so?"

"If it's a small problem, he can solve it himself. If it's difficult, you wouldn't have told Waylen to deal with it. As such, it must be an insignificant matter, but it's not convenient for Sir to deal with it himself."
