Chapter 217 Shawn's Nervousness

• Leon's words caused my heart to skip a beat and I hurriedly bid farewell to May before catching a cab home. I got out of the car and pushed open the door to find the mansion brightly lit up. Even the shrubs in the garden looked like it been tended to recently.
• I hurriedly rushed into the house but did not see Shawn. As for Mom and Dad, they were seated on the couch, seemingly engrossed in conversation. As soon as they saw me, there was a flash of surprise in their eyes as Mom got up to ask, "Why are you home at this time of the day?"
• I did not want to rat on Leon, so I told a little white lie instinctively, "In the morning, I called and told you that I would be back at night."
