Chapter 44 Long Night. Real Couple
Chapter 44 Long Night. Real Couple
“Five years ago, I was put in prison, I lost my mother, I lost my family, I lost my home, I lost everything
that was mine. And now, you gave me a home again. So, of course I want to thank you.”
Sean looked righteous.
He said it, and what he thought was, “I also want to thank you for giving me such a lovely daughter, and
for raising her so hard.”
“In the meantime, I want to say sorry to you!”
“I’m sorry I got you in trouble!”
Cecilia blushed a little.
Orphan?
Isaac’s previous research only stated that Sean was in prison for rape five years ago, and the
emphasis was on Sean’s criminal record, psychopathy, and serious violent tendencies.
There was no mention of Sean’s family background from five years ago.
Cecilia was surprised when it came out of Sean’s mouth and in such an atmosphere. Her heart
trembled, and she could not help feeling sorry for him.
Turned out, he was an unlucky guy, too.
Five years ago!
Cecilia was very sensitive to that time, and she instantly thought of herself. She also discovered one
day five years ago that she was unaccountably pregnant. For five years she was mocked and her
situation deteriorated.
What a coincidence.
Was this what they called freemasonry???
Cecilia asked after a pause, “What happened five years ago?”
For some reason, she had a sneaking feeling that Sean’s alleged rape was probably bogus, planted by
someone else.
No reason, just a subtle feeling.
Maybe it was a woman’s intuition.
“You want to know?”
Sean looked up and made eye contact with Cecilia.
“Whatever.”
Cecilia blushed even more. She snorted. She wanted to know, but she was too embarrassed to admit
it. Her expression was mischievous and charming in the lamplight.
“I’ll tell you.”
Sean nodded and smiled, then shook his head, “But not now.”
“Then when?”
Cecilia’s words came out of her mouth.
Sean thought about it and said, “My secret is so important that I can only tell it to those closest to me.
We’re engaged, but we’re not really married.”
“When you truly love me, and are willing to marry me, I will do what a real husband should do. I’ll be
honest with you and tell you all the secrets.”
Married???
Do what a real husband should do???
A real couple…
Cecilia’s heart gave a shiver. When she noticed that Sean’s eyes were on her chest and moving
around in a deliberate way, her face burned with shame and anger.
“You wish!”
She glared at Sean, pulled up the covers, climbed into bed, and turned off the lamp on the nightstand.
Then she turned her face away from Sean and gritted her teeth, “Who wants to know your secrets? I’m
warning you, don’t get your hands on me!”
The room was suddenly in darkness.
Sean rolled his eyes. What was going on?
Was she angry?
Was…
As if to think of something, Sean looked embarrassed and explained, “Cecilia, you’re not getting the
wrong idea, are you? When I say “what a real husband should do”, I mean honest and trusting, not
what you think.”
“You don’t seem to have a very pure mind.”
Sean was so wrong!
“Shut up!”
Cecilia’s muffled voice came out of the darkness. She wanted to scold him, but she was afraid to wake
Phyllis up.
Sean’s face was as dark as the night.
He was the real General Wolf of the North. If you put him in a fight, he could beat a hundred by one in
the battlefield. But he was not good with women.
In desperation, he shrugged his shoulders, groped his way back to the bed he had made and lay down.
It was a long night.
This was the first time a man had slept in her room in her life. Cecilia tossed and turned in bed, unable
to sleep for a long time. Her head was full of ideas that she couldn’t get away.
She was also worried that if she went to the Moore Group tomorrow and picked up her personal
belongings, she would break with the Moore family. After years of hard work, it was back to square one.
What should she do in the future???
Unbeknownst to her, Sean had paved the way for her. Starting tomorrow, she was still a part of the
Moore Group, and the Moore Group would be hers.
“Arrangements were made for the Moore Group, now owned by Mason.”
Sean received a message from Charles Campbell and smiled. He looked at Cecilia and Phyllis in their
bed in the faint moonlight and thought, “Cecilia, you’ve been suffering for years, and the Moore Group
is my little surprise for you.”
“I hope you don’t freak out tomorrow morning.”
Sean had a card up his sleeve. He tried to make it up to Cecilia as much as he could before a
showdown with her. Unbeknownst to Sean, his cover had been blown. Luis Sanchez and Connor Scott
were informed of his background by his inadvertence in Ricky Mall, and the Mason family in the Capital
City was notified immediately.
At that moment, Reid left the Capital City overnight and was on a flight to Hilshire, holding Colored
Glaze Holy Water for Phyllis!
Without realizing it, the crisis was creeping in…
…
The next morning.
When Sean woke up, Marcia had already made breakfast. As soon as he left the room, Marcia rushed
in and grabbed Cecilia, “Cecilia, did he do anything to you last night?”
“No.”
Cecilia pointed to the shakedown beside her bed and shook her head, “He read to Phyllis and went to
sleep, nothing more.”
“Okay, good…”
Marcia breathed a secret sigh of relief. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
After breakfast.
Sean put on the new clothes that Cecilia picked out for him yesterday and drove Cecilia to the Moore
Group. He took Phyllis with him and drove her to school.
As soon as they left, Marcia ran back into Cecilia’s room and rummaged through it.
“What are you looking for?”
Matthew Moore sat in his wheelchair, puzzled.
Marcia ignored him for a moment, then suddenly ran out of the room with Sean’s old clothes in her
hand, and said excitedly, “Look, what is this?”
She reached into Sean’s old shirt and pulled out a black card.
It was the black Supreme card from Universal Bank!
“It’s…”
Matthew Moore took the black card and turned it over several times, but could see nothing.
“Sean bought Cecilia all those new clothes and a new car yesterday,” Marcia guessed. “That’s over $7
million. Do you think this is his bank card?”
