Chapter Four The Divorce Was Delayed
Shawn took the phone, lifted the quilt and walked directly to the window.
The two chatted for a few minutes, but Norah couldn't hear what he was saying, only to see his brows
furrowed for a while, then stretching out.
After hanging up the phone, Shawn came over. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Norah looked at him embarrassedly. "I answered the wrong call. Did Miss Fountain misunderstand us?"
"I have already explained it to her."
After a pause, he looked at Norah. "We are husband and wife and sleep on a bed. It is natual for us to
wake up from one bed."
"Yeah." Norah nodded.
Just as she was about to get up, Shawn suddenly came close to her face. "What's wrong with your
face?"
Norah hurriedly ran to the mirror to take a look. Sure enough, she had a lot of red pimples on her face,
legs and arms, almost all over body.
She knew that it was the result of an egg allergy yesterday.
"I'm a little allergic. I've already taken the medicine, and they will recover in a few days." Norah said.
"It's really okay?" Shawn asked.
"Yes. Don't worry. I will still visit grandpa."
"Wait for me for a while. After I finish my makeup and change my clothes, I'll go with you to propose to
grandpa about divorce."
She knew that he couldn't wait to let her do that.
Since there was no room for going back, she would not be a bitter little woman and gain his pity.
She wouldn't do such a thing.
Her self-esteem didn't allow her to do that.
"No need to go to grandpa. Let's go to the hospital to see what how to cure your face." Shawn said.
Norah was stunned. "Has grandpa already agreed?"
Shawn shook his head.
Then he looked at her and explained, "I was about to tell you that my grandfather's health is not very
good. He has already brought forward his 80th birthday party, which will be held in a week."
"Grandpa has always loved you, and if we propose the divorce now, he will definitely not be happy.
We'll talk about it when his birthday is over."
"Okay." Norah nodded, "Grandpa is the one who loves me the most and treats me the best in the
Lawson family, and I also hope he has a happy birthday."
"So you are accusing me of treating you badly?" Shawn teased her.
Norah was speechless.
After her mother died, it was Martin Lawson who took her back to the Lawson's family and gave her a
warm and happy home. It was also him who took care of her and supported her to study.
Without Grandpa Martin, she couldn't imagine what life she would have lived in the past few years.
"Don't worry. I'll propose the divorce as soon as grandpa's birthday is over. I won't delay it."
Norah hurriedly assured him in cese that he was worried she would take advantage of grandpa's
birthday to delay time.
"You seem to be in a hurry to get a divorce, even more so than me?"
"What? Can't wait to meet your old lover?"
Shawn rubbed his brows. Somehow he felt a little upset.
After breakfast, Norah couldn't convince Shawn and was taken to the hospital.
At the doctor's office.
Norah sat on the stool, and Shawn stood beside her.
She was a little flustered. She didn't expect Shawn to accompany her here.
"Do you know what your allergies are?"
"Yes."
"Then why did you still eat so much and make it so serious? You made yourself suffer. Have you taken
any medicine?"
Norah shook her head and felt a little embarrassed, "No."
"I'll prescribe some medicine. You can take it at home to see if it works. If it doesn't, go to the hospital
for an injection immediately."
Norah put her hand on her lower abdomen. She was a little hesitant, worried that these oral medicines
would affect the baby.
But Shawn was standing beside her, so she couldn't ask.
Just when she was very anxious, Shawn's phone rang, and he went out to answer the phone.
Norah immediately breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the doctor. "Doctor, I'm pregnant. Can I take
these medicines?"
"Why didn't you tell me just now? I'll give you topical medicine instead of oral ones."
"Thank you, doctor!"
After leaving the doctor's office, Shawn's face changed.
There was no longer softness on it when he came here, and it became extremely cold.
After supressing it all the way, he finally couldn't bear it any longer when he went to get the medicine.
"You've learned to lie now, haven't you?"
Norah knew that he was talking about her lie of taking the medicine.
She quickly lowered her head, rather embarrassed. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."
"Then you are intentional."
Norah was left speechless.
He was really good at distorting others' words!
"I was thinking that we are going to divorce soon. After we separate, we will go on our seperate ways.
There is no need to trouble you any more. I have been a trouble for you in those two years."
"You also know that you are a trouble? "Shawn said.
Norah's ears were red and she felt like crying. Look, he really felt that she was a burden, a trouble.
But then, Shawn said again.
"You have been a trouble for two years. I don't care to deal with it again this time."
After getting the medicine, Shawn suddenly said when he was looking at the dosage and usage. "I
remember the doctor said that oral medicine was prescribed. How did it become a topical medicine?
Norah didn't know what to say.
Being too careful and too observant was sometimes not a good thing.
"Topical medicine is also good!" Norah said.
"You have serious allergies, and the effects of topical medicine are too slow. Oral medicine is better.
Besides, it will be Grandpa's 80th birthday soon. If the red pimples on your body can't go away by then,
he will think I am mistreating you again."
"I'll explain it to grandpa, and it won't take that long to recover." Norah earnestly promised.
But Shawn still insisted.
"No, I'd better switch it to oral medicine, in case that you come for injection again if it doesn't work."
Then he walked to the doctor's office, preparing to ask the doctor to prescribe the medicine again.
Norah was speechless and hurriedly stopped him. "Shawn, wait... I asked the doctor to replace it with
topical medicine. I have a bad stomach these days, and oral medicine is not suitable for people with
upset stomach."
"Topical medicine is a bit slower, but it's also safer, isn't it?"
She finally convinced Shawn.
He stopped.
In the car, Norah first rubbed the medicine on her face, legs and arms.
But she couldn't see the back of her neck. Just when she was thinking about how to do that, Shawn
said, "Are you sure you won't ask me for help?"
He was always like that. He acted as if he knew and took control of everything.
"Well, here you are!" Norah put the medicine in his hand.
Shawn frowned suddenly. "Just like that? Aren't you going to ask me nicely?"
Norah bit her lip. Fine. She would ask him very nicely.
Blinking her coquettish eyes, she used a soft voice to beg him. "Honey, please. I can't see the back of
my neck. Can you help me with it, please?"
