Chapter 221: Please Take Me Back, Kathleen

As Kathleen was still processing the emotion that was so vividly displayed in Shawn's eyes, the next minute, something she never expected to happen in this life occurred.

With tears welling up in his eyes, Shawn plopped down on his knees in front of her and asked in the most agonizing voice she had ever heard him speak in,

"Please, take me back Kathleen. I'm willing to accept any punishment you choose to inflict upon me, but please, don't push me away again. I can't bear it any longer."

Kathleen listened intently, her face a mask of unreadable emotions. She felt the weight of Shawn's words, the sincerity palpable in his apology. However, she remained stoic, a protective barrier shielding her emotions.

"Shawn, please don't do this. I didn't come here for this," she begged, but her plea seemed to fall on deaf ears as the next minute, Shawn leaned forward and his head fell directly on her two laps.
