Girl Get Rid Of That Jerk (Williams and Shawn)
Chapter 224

However, the next morning, when he groggily opened his eyes, he was startled to replace himself lying next to Kate, both of them stark naked! In that moment, it felt like his whole world had come crashing down. How could it be Kate? Last night, it had definitely been Allison.

Overwhelmed with anger and embarrassment, he snapped at Kate. But instead of getting upset, Kate gazed at him with tear-filled eyes, her lips trembling as she cried pitifully.

"Shawn, if you like someone like Allison, I can be her. Didn't you say I look a bit like her? I can copy her style, her makeup, her hair-anything you want, just please don't send me away."

As the events of the previous night replayed in his mind, he hesitated. Last night, Kate really did resemble Allison!

Sensing his silence, Kate gently shook his hand, her voice soft and sweet, "Shawn, you enjoyed yourself last night, didn't you?"

"Please, let me stay with you. I'm willing to be Allison's stand-in," Kate pleaded, her voice barely above a whisper.

No man could resist a woman pleading so humbly. Especially not a beautiful woman who loved him with all her heart!

Shawn rubbed the bridge of his nose and let out a deep sigh. He missed Allison terribly, and the days without her were driving him to the brink.

When Kate pressed her body against his and kissed him, Shawn resigned to his fate. He thought, maybe if he couldn't have Allison, a stand-in would have to do.

From that day on, Kate stayed by his side. She was, admittedly, a convincing stand-in. As promised, she mimicked Allison's style and hairstyle, even using Allison's favorite perfume. Shawn loved wrapping his arms around Kate from behind and inhaling her scent. Their silhouettes were nearly identical, and their fragrance was indistinguishable, which made Shawn deliriously happy.

And so, he deceived himself, sinking deeper into this illusion. But a stand-in was just that—a stand-in, never able to truly fill the void Allison had left in his heart. Kate could never truly become Allison.

As Shawn sat on the sofa,

enveloped in an intimate

atmosphère, his longing for Allison grew uncontrollably, like vines

spreading wildly. The ache in

chest was suffocating, and he drowned his sorrow in drink after drink, letting the alcohol numb him.

Suddenly, someone exclaimed, "Hey, check out the trending news on Twitter!"

Initially, Shawn didn't pay any attention. He had no interest in gossip. Until he heard Joshua's name.

He turned his head sharply, his eyes narrowing, "What did you just say about Joshua?"

A girl looked up, "He's caught up in a scandal with the actress Megan! Look at the trending topics on Twitter. Paparazzi caught them entering a hotel together, and insiders are saying they're dating. Megan is a top-tier actress. This is huge!"

Pearl chimed in, "Isn't Joshua Allison's fiancé? How could he..."

Pearl trailed off, casting a meaningful glance at Shawn, "Shawn, you know Allison well. Did they break up?"

Kate's expression froze, her pale face hidden in the dim light. "That's impossible!" Kate's voice rose involuntarily, "Their relationship is so strong, they're about to get married. You must be mistaken!"

She was so close to achieving her goal. Shawn was already hooked on her, and

once she carried the Reynolds family heir, she could secure her place in the

family. She couldn't allow anything to disrupt this!

Allison and Joshua couldn't break up; she couldn't let Shawn have any opportunity to reconsider.

"Look, Kate, see for yourself. It's all over Twitter, we're not making this up." Pearl handed over her phone.

Kate reached out, but Shawn snatched the phone away before she could even touch it.
