Chapter 26
Seamus‘ eyes were red with emotion. He clenched his dists and tried to punch Charles, shouting, “Why does it have to be him? I refuse to errept this, essal If you don’t want to get married, l’help you run away! We can go back to Xeston or go abroad if you want. We can do whatever you want!”
Charles could’ve easily dodged Seamus punch, but he chose to only tilt his head to the tide a little, allowing Seamus far to graze hischeek. It was a light injury, but it did leave a patch of red.
Holding his cheek, Charles winced in pain–though the injury did nothing to take away from his handsomeness
Seeing that Charles had gotten injured, Vannessa tratted over him. She took his hand to pull it away and check on the injury.
However, he purposely flashed her a carefree smile and said, “It’s fine. I’m not hurt. I don’t feel anything
However, that only made her even more anxious. Seeing how he refused to remove his hand, she turned her anger onto Seamus.
With a grim expression, the asked, “Why did you punch him? When did you become so hot–headed?
Seamus was nearly driven mad by the way Vanessa was interrogating him for what happened. He didn’t expect her to completely ignore what he’d said earlier and focus all of her attention on Charles alone.
He knew how much strength he’d put into that punch, and he knew just how much contact he’d made with Charles face. He didn’t expect Charles to use this situation to set him up!
Pissed, he refuted, “I didn’t even hit him! He’s not injured! Come with me, Nessa. He’s not a good man!”
He even reached out to grab Vanessa’s hand, but she shrugged him off without hesitation.
“This is the Shepherd residence! This is my home. I’m not leaving with you. I can’t believe you’re refusing to take responsibility even though you just hit someone.” With an croce, she declared, “Keanu, Seamus, from this moment forward, we’re no longer fends. You’re not welcome to my wedding either! After all, it doesn’t seem like you’re sincere about attending it.”
Once she finished speaking, she took Charles by the hand and marched into the house.
The Shepherd family’s bodyguards and security guards quickly stopped Keanu and Seamus from following them in, but the two men stubbomly chose to wait outside the gate,
