Chapter 35 Norah, I Could Afford You
Shawn's hand rubbing the medicine for her suddenly froze.
After a few seconds, his expression returned to normal.
His low voice was as calm as ever, "Didn't you already know the purpose of our marriage?"
Sure enough, the breath that Norah hung in her heart suddenly fell.
This was an expected answer.
She shouldn't have expected it, but she couldn't help but want to ask.
Now that having known the answer, she would no longer have unrealistic fantasies.
So you see, so many facts were telling her she's wrong.
And she was terribly wrong.
For so many years, his lover was Lilian, and only Lilian.
Perhaps from the moment Lilian returned to China, from the moment he filed for divorce, her dream
was shattered.
It fell to the ground and fell apart.
And it can't be fixed anymore.
But Shawn, did you know that you were really cruel?
Since you didn't love me, why did you treat me so tenderly? Was it just because of Grandpa's
entrustment?
But such tenderness was not love.
It was just pity and sympathy.
It was also the last thing she wanted.
Just waking up from a dream, Norah suddenly retracted her hand and looked at him, "Thank you for
helping me apply the medicine, but I can do it myself."
"Don't move." Shawn held her hand.
Norah insisted on pulling out her hand, "I don't need your help. This is not a difficult job, I can apply
medicine myself."
"Norah, don't be willful."
Shawn grabbed her hand again.
This time, Norah didn't pull out her hand but looked at the box opposite.
"Didn't you see? Your lover is still waiting for you. You asked her out for the Valentine's day, buying gifts
and giving surprises. If you waste your time with me now, all your time will be wasted. Well, it doesn't
work anymore."
"Give me the medicine. I can take it myself."
However, Shawn seemed to have not heard.
He quickened his speed and continued to apply the medicine.
But his actions behind were not as gentle as before. Norah's wound was a little painful from his actions.
After applying the medicine, Shawn released Norah's hand.
"You said everything was as usual today?" He looked at her with deep eyes.
Norah avoided his gaze, "This has nothing to do with you. Go back quickly, Lilian is still waiting for
you!"
"You just want to drive me away?"
It wasn't that she drove him away, but his heart wasn't with her, so what's the point of keeping him
reluctantly?
"You didn't come out with me today. Since you came out with her, you should stay with her. What's the
point of coming to see me on the way?" Norah said, feeling sour.
"Today happened to be her birthday, so I promised her a long time ago. I didn't expect it to be the
Valentine's Day. I didn't mean to." Shawn explained.
"You don't have to explain to me."
"Are you angry?" Shawn asked again.
Norah shook her head, "No." Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Shawn looked at the bags next to him, "You're angry."
After receiving the card swiping text message, he wondered how she could spend such a large sum of
money suddenly. So she bought these diamond rings, which makes sense.
"Today's Valentine's Day, can't I buy myself a few favorite gifts? Besides, you asked Anthony to go
shopping with me. How can you go shopping without spending money?"
Standing up, Shawn rubbed her hair and smiled, "I didn't mean that."
"I can still afford you, even if you spend ten times more money than this."
But after hearing that, Norah, who was really angry, was moved again.
He was always like this, talking about not loving her but doing a lot of things that moved her.
Shawn, you were really like poison. You got me hooked. I obviously feel the pain but I can't quit you.
Just then, his cell phone rang.
Just then, his cell phone rang.
On the phone, Lilian's voice came clearly, "Shawn, where have you been? I've already cut the cake,
come back soon honey!"
"Okay, I'll come back right away."
Before leaving, he instructed Anthony again, "Take good care of her."
Over there, Lilian clenched her hands. Because of the force, her hands had turned white.
If she hadn't accidentally glanced across the street, she would never have dreamed that Norah would
also eat at this restaurant.
And Shawn left her alone to see Norah.
Today was her birthday, and Shawn was originally there to accompany her. Norah, why were you
messing around again?
But that's not the most annoying thing.
The most annoying thing was that she was obviously very angry, but she didn't dare to say it. She could
only endure.
Desperately endure.
Hearing the footsteps, Lilian immediately released her hand, with a gentle smile on her face, "Shawn,
come here, try this cake. I just tasted it. It's delicious."
Then, Lilian brought the fork to Shawn's mouth.
Shawn could only open his mouth and take a bite.
Over there, Norah was so sad that tears came out.
Some time ago, it was their second anniversary.
She also made the cake herself and asked Anthony to send it to him.
But he said he didn't like sweets.
But now he ate all the cakes Lilian fed.
"Anthony, do you think your boss is fickle?" Norah turned to look at him and said with a bitter smile.
After a while of panic, Anthony quickly comforted, "Mrs. Lawson, this is different. Mr. Lawson today...
today is..."
Norah interrupted and said coolly, "Forget it, it's hard for you to ask you to make an excuse for him."
"I'm done, let's go!"
"Yes, Mrs. Lawson."
Probably because of eating fish at night, Norah felt a little nauseous as soon as she left the restaurant.
After she went to the bathroom, she just came out to meet Anthony. At the same time, Lilian and
Shawn also happened to come out of the restaurant.
"Norah, it's really a coincidence that I can meet you all the time." Lilian looked at her and greeted her
generously.
"Well, what a coincidence."
Norah didn't want to talk to her, but someone just wouldn't let her go.
Looking at the bag in Anthony's hand, Lilian suddenly opened her mouth wide and said in surprise,
"Norah, it turns out that you were the one who bought those rings!"
"It's really surprising. When I went back with Shawn, they said that someone bought all three rings. I
really didn't expect it to be you."
Lifting his head, Norah looked at her with a light smile, "Yes, I liked them all so I bought them all."
"Anyway, my husband is not short of money at all, right?"
Norah's rhetorical question made Lilian turn pale with anger, but she couldn't attack but only endure it.
"You're right, but I think girls should be more independent, right Shawn?" Lilian looked at Shawn
deliberately after finishing speaking.
Norah said coldly, "Really? I don't have the grand ambitions of Miss Fountain. I'm relatively superficial. I
just don't want to work hard and want my husband to support me. After all, my husband said that he is
willing to spend a lot of money to support me!"
