Chapter 660 Its Merely a Misunderstanding (1/2)
”Nonsense!” Sean contradicted her nearly without a second thought; he could barely hold the discontent in his eyes. ”He was just giving you some suggestions for his own good. How could you possibly want anything to do with him?”
Emily was utterly dumbfounded by Sean's reaction. She paused to gather her thoughts, then said, ”I'm just saying. There's is no need to be angry...”
Sean calmed himself down a bit. ”Okay then, please don't say that again, all right?”
Emily nodded, ”Sure. I won't...”
Softening his tone, Sean offered comfort. ”I'm the only person in this world who cares about you, the only one, your elder brother...”
Emily frowned and said, ”But I'm going to get married, well, eventual...”
Sean reached out and covered her mouth before she could finish that sentence. All of a sudden, his eyes had frozen over like the surface of a winter puddle, robbing them of their usual warmth.
”I don't want to hear another word about that.
I'll be with you, from this day, until the day I die.”
It was in this moment that Emily clearly sensed the hypocrisy in his words. With her eyes opened wide, her heart shuddered. She couldn't help but question her brother's feelings towards her.
”Does he take me for his personal possession?”
Confused and somewhat perturbed, Emily wasn't sure what to make of Sean's words.
Mixed feelings filled Sean as well, making him feel deeply unsettled inside.
He wasn't sure whether Emily would regain her memories of Jacob again, but he was sure that he couldn't take that chance.
Sean decided to make a move to put an end to all his worries. At night, he coaxed Emily into his room by telling her that he had prepared a surprise for her.
