BookToReadChapter 157
Joshua gently laid Allison onto the bed. "You're worn out. Get srest. I'll go check who that is."
As he opened the door, his brow knitted in concern. There stood Shawn, right outside. He had nearly forgotten
Shawn was hanging around this little town. This was bound to get interesting.
Joshua had just stepped out of the shower, wrapped in nothing but a towel, with Allison's kisses still visible on his
neck and collarbone.
Shawn's face went pale, and the veins on his forehead stood out as he absorbed the scene. His breath hitched,
eyes darkening with a looming storm.
"What did you do to Allie?" Shawn's hands clenched into fists, knuckles turning white with tension.
Joshua chuckled. "We're a couple. Take a guess."

Those words hit Shawn like the final straw. His chest tightened, his blood felt like it had turned to ice, and his
head pounded fiercely.
He had tortured himself with the thought of Allison and Joshua having sex before, but that was just his
imagination running wild. Now, seeing the undeniable marks on Joshua's skin made his world momentarily
collapse into darkness.
A sharp ringing echoed in his ears, accompanied by a stabbing pain in his heart, leaving him unsteady on his
feet.
The next moment, Shawn charged like a wounded beast, eyes blazing with rage.
Joshua stepped back, skillfully dodging, then landed a solid punch on Shawn's face, following it up with a fierce
kick.
Agony erupted across Shawn's face, his mind buzzing with chaos. He stumbled back, slamming against the
corridor wall with a dull thud.
"Hah." Joshua's eyes glinted with disdain. "Shawn, | gave you your chance When Allie chose you three years ago,
| told myself that I'et you be as long as she was happy. But how did you treat her?"
Shawn's heart felt like it was being squeezed by an invisible hand, suffocating him.
Joshua didn't let up, and he spoke in a piercing voice. "Shawn, what right do you have to question me?"
Those words hit hard.
Shawn was momentarily lost in thought. What right did he have now? He had wrecked his relationship with
Allison, and had driven her away.
Joshua's gaze was contemptuous, as if he were looking at trash. He couldn't stand men like Shawn, who only
valued what they lost, feigning deep affection too late.
Who was Shawn trying to fool now?
After a moment of silence, Shawn's confusion cleared. He seemed to find a justification for himself. Smirking he

love her! No one could love her more than | do!"
Joshua laughed, incredulous, raising an eyebrow. "Love her? Please, do you think anyone would believe your
words?"
Shawn opened his mouth to retort, but was cut off by Allison's voice, sharp with anger and surprise, from behind
Joshua.
"Shawn, what are you doing here?" She glared at him, eyes filled with the intensity reserved for a sworn enemy.
Hearing Allison's voice, Shawn looked up. He first noticed the unusual flush on her cheeks, the arousal still in her
eyes. Then, the glaring mark on her pale neck.
At that moment, Shawn finally understood what true heartache felt like. If he had held onto a sliver of hope that
Joshua was lying about
the lovebites just to mess with him, that hope was now shattered
