“I’m just the messenger, Serenity,” Shawn said. “I shouldn’t keep you from your rest. Goodnight, Serenity. Tomorrow morning, I’m going to stop by the shop to bring Jasmine her favorite breakfast. Join us and let’s enjoy breakfast together.” Although Shawn frequently delivered food to his cousin, he had other intentions in mind.
In reality, he wanted to deliver breakfast to Serenity. However, Shawn couldn’t openly express his true feelings. “It’s fine. Just bring breakfast for Jasmine. I plan to have breakfast with my husband before heading to work,” she replied. Zachary had mentioned that Shawn had feelings for her.
Serenity was uncertain whether Zachary was correct. Regardless, she felt it was time to maintain some distance from Shawn. He was no longer the child who cried on the floor when the girls excluded him from their games; he was now a grown man.
She intentionally brought up Zachary to remind Shawn that she was married. The moment she mentioned her husband, the smile on Shawn’s face faltered. It took him a moment to respond. “Goodnight, Serenity,” he said before ending the call.
After placing his phone on the bedside table, Shawn lay in bed, staring at the ceiling. The realization that Serenity, the girl he had a crush on for as long as he could remember, was married to someone else made his heart sink.
He understood that Serenity had married quickly to find a place to live, ensuring her sister felt comfortable. Shawn also recognized that Serenity never considered him husband material because he was three years younger than her.
To her, he was merely a younger brother.
Why did he have to be three years younger than Serenity? If only his mother had given birth to him earlier, perhaps Serenity wouldn’t see him as a younger brother but as a potential partner.
Mrs. Lowe would likely wonder why it was her fault if she could read Shawn’s mind.
