Shawn's new villa was being renovated. Because of my brother, he had been staying at my house for the past few months.

I looked around, "Where is Miss Murphy? Didn't she come back with you?"

The next second, Shawn's eyes fell on me gloomily. "Sonia, where did you go last night? Who left these?"

I realized then that he was talking about the kiss marks on my neck.

I subconsciously pulled my collar to cover them, "Nothing, just a mosquito bite."

Shawn sneered, "Don't think I don't know. Last night, your brother not only drugged me, but also had it in your wine. Why, did you collude with your brother last night, didn't sleep with me and ran out to sleep with other men?"

He continued, "Sonia, do you think that you deliberately called Lilian over last night and disappeared overnight to make me worry? You played the trick of playing hard to get wrong!"

I was confused. Why was Shawn so angry? Didn't I help him and Lilian?

I felt so sour when I realized it. It turned out that he thought that I was playing hard to get with him by helping him last night.

His indifferent and cold voice continued to come. "As you can see, Lilian and I were together last night and I will marry her. I advise you to stop playing any tricks you want to play."

I lowered my eyes and smiled softly, "Okay. I'm sorry about my brother drugging you, but... I really don't like you anymore."

Shawn looked up at me deeply and he obviously didn't want to believe it and his brows were furrowed.

In the past, everyone in this small circle knew that I had a crush on Shawn, but I refused to fall in love, rejected countless blind dates and cut off all peach blossoms for him. But now, I know I was wrong.

I didn’t want to watch my daughter being born in expectation and dying in despair like in my previous life.

Just as Shawn was about to speak, my brother's terrified cry suddenly came from behind him. "Ahhh, damn it, why is there an extra person in the house..."

He rushed over and pointed at the room upstairs with a trembling hand. "Lilian, when did she sleep in our house?"

Shawn closed the door with a serious face and explained calmly. "I brought her here last night. She was tired after a night and couldn't get used to staying in a hotel, so I brought her back to have a good rest."

"What?!" My brother looked at him with a complicated expression, then looked at me.

"You...didn't you last night?" he almost shrieked.

Finally, his eyes fell on our necks suspiciously.

I hurriedly fled, "Brother, I'm going back to sleep first."

I quickly fled back to the room and I could still hear their voices coming from behind the closed door. Maybe my brother was questioning Shawn about what was going on.

It was lunchtime at noon and my brother knocked on the door and called me out for dinner, but I didn't get up.

"Brother, I'm not hungry yet, you guys eat." I juts replied casually.

Soon, Lilian's chuckle came from outside. "I'll call Sonia to get up. Speaking of which, it was all thanks to Sonia that Shawn and I got together so quickly last night."

The door was knocked softly again. "Sonia, I'm Lilian. Just give me some face and come out to have lunch together."

My parents and brother had taught me to be polite since I was a child. Guests should be treated with respect. I had no choice but to bite the bullet and open the door.

At the dinner table, Shawn said nothing, but gently picked up dishes for Lilian. In just a few minutes, the bowl in front of her was piled up like a mountain.

"Shawn, Sonia is still here. Sonia was already in a bad mood because of what happened last night. She will be jealous again soon."

Shawn looked up at me coldly, "Why is she jealous? You are the one I want to marry. I, like Juan, only treat her as a sister."

I ate the rice in the bowl quietly without saying a word. It tasted like wax.

My brother opened his mouth, but he hesitated to speak and sighed repeatedly.

There was food residue at the corner of Lilian's mouth. Shawn wiped it off for her, but Lilian stopped him with a smile.

"Shawn, I asked you to clean it with your mouth." She moved her face closer.

Shawn was stunned for a moment, then smiled and kissed her.

Lilian turned to look at me proudly, "Sonia, don't mind it. Shawn has been enjoying it since that night. You are still a single girl. You will understand when you have a boyfriend in the future."

The meal was tasteless and I put down my bowl and chopsticks, "I'm full, you guys eat slowly."

No matter how stupid my brother was, he knew about the two of them.

After the meal, he was so angry that he slapped his thigh. "You little fool, why did you give up such a good opportunity last night to Lilian, that dead green tea!"

"Shawn can't see that she is scheming, can't I see it? They showed their affection at the dinner table today just to make you angry. I said that you and Shawn have a good impression of each other..."

I interrupted him, "Brother, don't say such things in the future."

My brother looked at me in disbelief. I smiled, "I don't like Shawn anymore. Brother, please help me arrange a blind date."

My brother really loved me. He confirmed again and again that I was not joking and he breathed a sigh of relief.

He said, "My dear sister, you finally thought it through. I have long advised you not to hang yourself on a tree. Although Shawn is an excellent man, there are many men who are better than him."

"I will contact you Mario Lorenzo, the rich young man of the Lorenzo Family, the marriage partner you rejected before. His family business is much bigger than the Barton Family. He is also handsome and like you, he has never been in a relationship. When you meet him, you may like him."

I obediently took out my phone and added the contact information. I thought it would be difficult to give up Shawn, but when I really gave up, I found that it was just like that.

This time, I could finally change the fate of my daughter and me.

"Shawn, please help me put the suitcase back to your room." Lilian's voice came with a smile.

After she finished speaking, she turned to look at me, "Sonia. Shawn's villa is not yet renovated. He wants to see me all the time, so I have to move in and stay with him for a few days. You shouldn't mind, right?"

I shook my head, "Of course not."

I watched Shawn help her carry the luggage, busying around and smiled self-deprecatingly.

Thinking of the previous life, after that one-night stand, Shawn was afraid that Lilian would be sad, so he sent her abroad in the name of studying abroad. After the hasty wedding, he also lived abroad for many years. I gave birth to my daughter Tiana alone and waited for him to come back, but he showed up at the airport hand in hand with Lilian.

At that time, his eyes were always cold and indifferent when he looked at me, unlike now, when he always looked at Lilian with warm eyes.

As soon as I turned around, I suddenly bumped into something head-on. Lilian splashed herself with a basin of water, but burst into exclamation.

"Lilian!" Shawn's face changed and he immediately rushed over to protect Lilian, looking at me vigilantly.

Lilian hid in his arms and cried as she said, "Sonia, if you don't want me to move in, you can just say it. This dress is a gift from Shawn just now. It's very expensive and I cherish it very much. Why did you have to deliberately bump into me and dirty it?"

I explained helplessly, "I didn't, I didn't mean it..."

"Enough!" Shawn interrupted sharply,

He looked at me with squinted eyes. "Sonia, I told you not to play these tricks. If you don't like Lilian living in, we will move out the day after tomorrow."

Then he didn't give me a chance to explain. He picked up Lilian by the waist and went back to change clothes. Lilian hooked her neck and smiled proudly at me.

When Lilian came out wearing the dress I cherished the most, my face turned pale.

Shawn said confidently, "Anyway, you haven't worn this dress since I gave it to you, so why not let Lilian wear it first."

I smiled bitterly. I didn't wear that dress because I couldn't bear to part with it.

In all these years of knowing each other, Shawn only gave me this as a birthday present. And after knowing that I had a crush on him, he never gave me anything again, so I kept this dress like a treasure.

But now, I nodded lightly, "Okay, I can't wear it anymore and I was planning to get rid of it or give it away."

In the next few days, Lilian pestered Shawn every day to show his affection, as if he was doing it deliberately for me to see.

On the day when Shawn knelt down to propose in person, I was restless and had a car accident. Although it was not serious, I was still sent to the hospital by passers-by.

They came to see me in a group and Lilian's face wrinkled and she was about to cry.

"Shawn, is it because we are engaged that Sonia was so upset that she deliberately got hit by a car? It's all my fault. If I hadn't insisted on you proposing to her, Sonia wouldn't have gotten into trouble..." She blamed herself.

Shawn comforted her with heartache, "It has nothing to do with you, dear, the milk tea I ordered for you is here, go get it first."

As soon as Lilian left, Shawn frowned and accused me harshly. "Sonia, do you have to make trouble on the day when I proposed to Lilian? Do you really want to break us up? I told you a long time ago that you should put away all your thoughts and there will be no result between you and me!"

I smiled faintly. "Shawn, you misunderstood, I only regard you as my brother. And you think too much, I got into a car accident and it has nothing to do with you."

Shawn didn't believe it, he said thoughtfully, "I will marry Lilian soon, Sonia, you If you can be more open-minded, you should find a boyfriend and give up your thoughts on me."

I nodded. "I already have a boyfriend."

"If you don't have one, then you don't have to lie!"

Shawn's eyes fell on my face. He just felt irritated for no reason and couldn't breathe for a moment.

But at this moment, Lilian pushed the door in with milk tea. She handed me the milk tea with a smile, but deliberately showed off the diamond ring on her ring finger to me.

"Sonia, don't waste your energy. No matter what you do, it will only make Shawn hate you more. See, Shawn only has me in his heart. He put this diamond ring on me personally. You should give up this idea."

Before leaving, Shawn looked at me deeply.

"It doesn't matter if you don't have a boyfriend. You are Juan's sister, which means my sister. As long as you don't have those messy thoughts, I can support you for life."

Hearing this, Lilian cast a resentful look at me, but pretended to be understanding. "Yes, you can also treat me as your own sister. Shawn and I will take care of you.”

But I didn't lie. I really have a boyfriend.

My eyes fell gently on the gardenia on the bedside table, which was given by my boyfriend Mario.

At first, I just agreed to my brother to try blind dating first, but when I arrived at the coffee shop, I found that Mario was actually the male model I slept with that night. I blushed when I saw him, but unexpectedly, he smiled and pushed me against the wall as if he expected it.

"Are you shy? What, weren't you very proactive when we met last time? "
