Chapter 454 Private Territory
Shawn turned to Peter and said, “You don’t need to keep secret my schedule from her. Just tell her whatever she wants to know.”
Upon hearing these words, a hint of shock flashed in Peter’s eyes. Shawn had a vast network of social connections and had been in business for many years, so his schedule had always been kept confidential for security reasons.
Peter had followed Shawn for many years, always operating in the shadows and never appearing in public. However, today, Shawn revealed his existence without reservation to the woman in front of him.
It was evident that he had complete trust in Gianna.
“I understand, Mr. Fallon.” Peter never questioned Shawn’s words.
If Shawn trusted Gianna, then Peter himself would also have complete trust in her.
“Good, you can go now…”
“Yes, Mr. Fallon.”
After Peter left, Shawn took hold of Gianna’s hand. “Gianna, during this period, I have some special matters to attend to.”
Gianna had already sensed something, but she didn’t ask any further questions.
She simply nodded and looked at him. “I understand, Shawn. Just one thing. Please don’t get injured again…”
“Okay.” Shawn stared intently at her profile, his eyes reflecting her figure. The air suddenly became somewhat mellow.
Gianna instinctively took two steps back, wanting to leave. “Shawn, I should go back now.” However, her arm was grabbed, and Shawn said, “It’s too late. It’s not safe outside.” “What?” Gianna suddenly realized something and her cheeks flushed. “No… this isn’t appropriate.”
Shawn smiled indulgently, but he never thought of crossing the boundaries between them. He could feel that Gianna was quietly accepting him.
Between them, there was no need to rush.
“You can sleep in the master bedroom, and I’ll sleep in the guest room. Let’s make do for tonight. If I send you back at this late hour, my mother will scold me.”
Since Shawn mentioned Lily, Gianna had no choice but to give in.
“Okay, Shawn, I’ll go upstairs and rest. Good night!”
Gianna turned and hurriedly left as if something was chasing after her. There was a sense of fleeing.
She hastily went upstairs and rushed into the master bedroom, slamming the door shut with a bang. Then she deeply exhaled and rubbed her cheeks, feeling a bit annoyed.
“Gianna, why did you run away?!”
After calming herself down, Gianna carefully examined the bedroom in front of her.
It was her first time entering Shawn’s bedroom. Taking a quick glance, she found that the decor was grand, exuding a sense of stability that matched Shawn himself.

“Oh my, he collects so many figurines!” Gianna was amazed seeing the neatly arranged cabinet filled with various anime characters, all of which were limited editions.
“When did Shawn start liking these things?” Gianna couldn’t help but inwardly mock.
She remembered that when she was in school, she had also been temporarily obsessed with these anime characters and had collected some.
Those figurines should still be stored in the villa at the Lewis family’s home, but it had been a long time since she had touched those things.
Gianna shook her head slightly and sighed, “Time flies by like running water.”
Gianna turned around to leave, but then her gaze was instantly attracted to something, causing her to stand there in a daze.
