Once His Toy, Now His Obsession Chapter 08

Once His Toy, Now His Obsession Chapter 08

Bill fell deep into the web of love Shirley weaved and committed suicide. 

Everything the Norris family had fell into Larry’s control. 

Everything seemed to be over. 

Larry was looking forward to a new life with Shirley. 

He felt that they could build a happy family and have a few children, but at the same time, he also felt that this was probably a luxury to have. 

After all, Larry carried the blood of the Norris family. Every time Shirley saw Larry, she would think of everything Bill had done.. 

Sure enough, she rejected Larry’s love and insisted. on divorcing him. 

He decided to let her go. 

If he forced her to be trapped by my side, he knew that she would break. 

He was too afraid to face the consequences, so he would rather let her go. 

Since they were still young, Larry believed that they would always have a chance to meet again. 

However, Larry had lied. 

He said he was willing to let her go, but in fact, he had been sending people to secretly follow her and protect her. 

Larry wanted to know where she went, who she met, what she ate, what she saw, and what she did. 

In three years, Shirley travelled around the world. 

She was very brave. No matter whether it was 

grasslands or deserts, poverty or war, none of them could stop her from exploring. 

Larry could tell that she gradually got tanned and became thinner through photo updates. 

However, her eyes became brighter. 

The heavy shackles on her body were gradually receding, and she was like a little sun that started glowing again, becoming more and more beautiful. 

Larry wanted to find her, hug her, and kiss her. 

As long as Larry thought of her, his heart couldn’t help but tighten. 

Finally, after she returned to their country, he couldn‘ t help but fly to meet her. 

The voice of the tour guide’s explanation drifted into his ears from time to time. 

She said, “This place is also known as Thousand Deity Caves. Here are the murals and painted sculptures from many countries that existed hundreds of years ago. These murals, with their smooth lines, delicate brushstrokes, and rich colors, demonstrate the exquisite skills and outstanding talents of ancient artists. 

“Among the murals, the most striking are the life- like statues of gods…” 

A statue on the mural lowered its eyebrows and looked at us compassionately. 

Shirley put her hands together, raised her head, and looked at the statue solemnly. 

Larry looked at her solemnly and affectionately. 

After a long time, she put down her hands and looked sideways at Larry, as if not surprised that he would be there. 

Larry suppressed his flustered heartbeat and asked her calmly and gently, “What wish did you make to the god?” 

She smiled playfully. “I won’t tell you.” 

Larry mustered up the courage to hold her hand. She didn’t refuse. 

He said, “Shirley, I’m here to bring you home.” 

She asked, “Aren’t you afraid that Troy will kick your out of the family?” 

“Then I will destroy the Norris family first.” 

In fact, Larry had never regarded the Norris family as his home. 

Back then, Larry took over the Norris family because it was very easy to do so. 

He knew that only by making himself stronger could he better protect the people he loved. 

When she came back this time, Shirley completely let go of the past. 

She opened a gallery, and the paintings she drew were all the landscapes she had visited and the states of mind she had. 

Larry fully supported her. He only hoped that she could do what she loved and spend every day happily. 

After another two years, they had their first child. 

Larry named her Lily Rhodes. Shirley had gone through hell to deliver this child, so Larry felt that she should take Shirley’s last name. 

After having a child, Shirley started to smile more frequently. 

According to Shirley, she felt that the child enriched her life. 

In the past, Shirley always had an inexplicable sense of detachment from this world. 

But since she had Lily, she felt that she had taken root in this world. 

At the age of 82, Shirley passed away. 

Larry passed away the following year. 

Although their lives were not perfect, Larry was very grateful to have met Shirley in this life.
