Chapter 829
Halsey felt like an idiot
In this relationship she was the only one who had been running toward him
She wanted so badly to ask him Why Why did he treat her like this
Halsey pulled out her phone and scrolled to Shaun s chat interface
She typed out a message pouring out all her questions
Why did you disappear three years ago What happened to the woman you married Do you have a new girlfriend now Is it Chelsea If you have Chelsea then why did you kiss me Why did you do those things with me
Her mind was full of unanswered questions
Meanwhile Shaun had returned to his villa He was in the bathroom preparing for a shower
He held his phone intending to message Halsey when suddenly he noticed she was typing
His heart tightened Was she about to send him a message He waited curious about what she might say
But the typing stopped and started again over and over until finally no message came through
Frustrated Shaun sent a simple What s App
[Wannachat?]
Halsey was torn She didn t know if she should ask anything or from what positions he could even start So many questions crowded her mind yet she couldn t bring herself to send a single one
Soon her phone buzzed with his message
[Wannachat?]
It was so typically him direct yet distant

Halsey didn t understand what he meant Was he with Chelsea now Or Warren In the past Warren had called her Halsey but now it was Ms Halsey

Shaun caught the hint that she wanted to end the conversation He chuckled softly and typed Going to sleep
Halsey replied simply Yeah
Shaun s fingers tapped on the keyboard answering But I m not going to sleep yet

Halsey wasn t sure what he meant If he were with Chelsea he definitely wouldn t be going to bed so early
What were they doing together
Today when they were in the bathroom his body had been so restless and eager She had though the had been alone for three years without intimacy
Apparently she had been wrong

Shaun stood before the bathroom sink waiting for a reply that never came He set the phone down and removed the black hollowed mask from his face revealing the scars beneath
Would she still like this face
She used to love his face so much but now it was ruined
Since the injury he didn tc are what anyone thought of him except her
When she saw his face the first time after it was scarred fear had flickered in her eyes
Shaun stripped off his clothes and turned on the shower The cold water couldn t washaway the fire inside him his mind was flooded with images of Halsey s bold passion today
