Sold to Mr. Arrogant

Friends?

I called the paramedics who rushed to the ring, they started checking their conditions. They managed

to stop the bleeding of John's mouth and took him out of the ring; they also gave him a light pain relief

medication and asked him to rest until he becomes able to stand on his own.

I was by Shawn's side, the female paramedic was checking his vital signs, his breathing was unsteady

and rough, she started giving him CPR to stimulate his respiration. After a few mouth-to-mouth

breathing, Shawn started breathing normally again. He coughed several times before finally getting up,

he looked angry as he stared at my face.

" You deserve it." I started.

" Heartless..." he uttered.

I helped him up leading him to the dressing room where John was also resting. John laughed as soon

as he spotted Shawn; he stood up and grabbed Shawn by the collar.

" I did not know that fighting with you would be that much fun, you are a fine man, kid," he said.

John's true passion in life is fighting, a good man for him has another definition.

" You were quite professional yourself, honestly, I didn't expect you to be this good," Shawn replied.

" I am hungry, let's go eat, man," Shawn added.

" Cool," John agreed.

I was surprised by Shawn's change in attitude, I may have speculated that John would act this way but

what is seriously wrong with Shawn? Tony shared my surprise; he was creeped out by their behavior

as well.

" They are certainly abnormal," he whispered to my ears.

" I agree,"

Shawn drove us to the nearest restaurant, we stepped out of the car, I begged Tony to come with me

as I did not want him to go back home after he was told hurtful words, I wanted to make him feel better.

" It is on me," Shawn started.

" It should,"

I was still a bit angry with him, to be honest, we all gathered around the table, the restaurant was not

classy but its food was good.

“ Are you angry because I was kissed by that female paramedic? Do not worry, I still love you.” He

teased me.

“ In your dreams…” I replied slightly embarrassed since John and Tony were blatantly staring at us.

" I am sorry, Tony. I bet I went berserk because I was jealous. I didn't mean to say what I said." Shawn

argued.

" What were you jealous of?" I asked confused by his weird statement.

" You didn't give me your response Lily, instead you went out to probably talk about me with some guys

I don't know. I didn't feel good about it." he honestly stated.

" You are a fine man, indeed. Lily did choose the right guy." John commented.

" Johnn..." I stated while raising my voice tone in disagreement.

" It's okay, I wasn't offended anyway," Tony argued.

" Good, if you are Lily's friends then allow me to be yours too."

Why is he talking sweetly after he has already given him a first bad impression, maybe John won't

remember it but Tony definitely would.

" I don't mind befriending a rich dude," Tony replied which caused me to spew out the water I was

drinking.

" So clumsy," Shawn said as he wiped my mouth with his handkerchief. My face turned red, I was

happy he was caring for me. Why is he so damn sweet?

" What do you like bout Lily, Shawn?" Tony asked backing me up, he wanted to get some information

out of him for me to use.

" Love isn't about what I like... I feel love towards her and I have no specific reason for that."

" Isn't it weird for a rich family to want someone such as Lily as a part of their circle?" Tony continued.

" Our family's not your regular rich one, we basically have all the money in the world so why would we

care about more?"

Shawn was not showing off, from a wealthy man's perspective, he was just stating the obvious and

what is evident is that Shawn's family is listed in the top 5 rich families worldwide so he was honest

when he said that.

" You might think so but the society won't. They would attack Lily."

" Then I will force the society to think so and I will protect her no matter what," Shawn responded to

Tony’s last sentence in pure confidence.

" We will trust you with our girl then," John commented again, I counterattacked stealing a piece of

chicken out of his dish.

" Fuck you, Lily. I need every gram of protein... I lost a lot of blood."

" What does that have to do with protein," I laughed and Shawn followed right after.

We spent a nice night, to be honest, we chatted about general life aspects and had fun for a while

before Shawn drove them home.

" Ask me for whatever you may need in the future, Tony. I am a man of my words."

" Got that," Tony replied as he took his leave. We were left alone in the car heading home.

" I think I made an overall good impression, didn't I?"

" You could have made it from the start, you seriously need to fix your anger issues."

" You can fix it for me,"

" Why would I?"

" Because you are my future wife..."

" You keep saying that, I did not agree yet."

" You will agree soon," he stated confidently.

" I guess I need to meet your female friends as well,"

I ignored his imagination that ran wild. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

" Will you invite your father to your wedding? I don't mind by the way," he said.

I kept ignoring him slightly angry by recalling that man whom I lived with for 18 years which amounts to

my whole life minus a month.

" What about your brother?"

I flinched upon hearing his question; he must know my brother's whereabouts and history if he has

taken a look at all the investigated information.

" You know where he is?" I asked curiously.

" Yes, do you want to know?"

" No, I definitely don't care" I replied firmly.

" Would you tell me if I asked you what happened?"

" Yes, maybe later though since I just don't want to ruin my mood now." I clarified.

" Okay, as you wish."

We reached home and I was too tired to even go upstairs, I fell asleep as soon as I placed my head on

the pillow and I bet Shawn did the same.
