Chapter 23 Pain Will Render People to Give Up
Totally in confusion now, Norah didn't know what she should do.
Did Shawn decide to take her to the banquet? He can't wait to introduce Lilian to everyone?
How about her? What's her position in Shawn's heart? Norah thought inwardly.
Norah's face turned pale instantly, and the phone fell from her hand with a splat.
Seeing this, Marry picked it up quickly, "Madam, what's the matter? You look so bad."
Norah nodded blankly, "No."
"I'm sorry, I'll go to the bathroom."
Beside the sink, Norah suddenly went crazy, pouring cold water on her cheeks.
Keeping doing this for numerous times, her entire cheeks were so cold that there was no trace of
temperature, and her hands were so cold that they turned red. she raised her head, brushed her hair,
and looked at herself.
In the mirror, she was wearing the most gorgeous and beautiful clothes, with the most gentle and
beautiful makeup and the most expensive jewelry and necklaces. But at this moment, she felt like a
clown and was embarrassed to the extreme.
She has already agreed to ask grandpa's opinion about divorce tomorrow after the birthday party is
over today.
It only lasts half a day.
He can't wait even for half a day.
Noticing that Norah has been in the bathroom for a long time and the water was flowing incessantly.
Afraid of anything bad happening to her, Marry knocked on the door worriedly, "Madam, are you okay?"
"..."
Without hearing Norah's answer, Marry got a little anxious and called again, "Madam..."
At this time, Norah opened the door and looked at Marry with a gentle smile, "I'm fine, let's go down!"
"Should we wait for the young master?"
Norah shook her head, "No, he'll be there right away."
Moreover, he didn't need her to wait.
In the bathroom, Norah thought a hundred times about whether she should go downstairs.
If she didn't want to, she could refuse. But she still came down.
In part because she doesn't want to disappoint her grandpa or make him regret.
As for the other reason, perhaps if she goes, she will give up thoroughly.
When Shawn introduces Lilian in front of everyone, and when he denies her, she might really give up.
Only by seeing the pain with your own eyes can you understand and leave completely.
When Norah went down, Grandpa had already sat down, and the guests on the table had arrived, and
there were only two empty seats.
Norah glanced around and found that the seats belonged to her and Shawn.
It seemed that he hasn't arrived yet.
Seeing Norah, grandpa grabbed her hand and was very happy, "Norah, come and sit next to grandpa."
"Okay, grandpa."
Norah nodded obediently and sat down beside Grandpa Martin.
At this time, Grandpa Martin saw the empty space beside Norah, and frowned immediately and asked
unhappily, "Where is he? what the hell is he doing?"
Norah smiled and pulled Grandpa Martin's arm, smiling and sweetly replying, "Grandpa, you might
misunderstand my husband. He has to deal with something urgent in the company."
"We all know grandpa's birthday is the most important thing. But if something bad happened to the
company, you wouldn't be happy because it's your whole life."
After Norah finished speaking, the anger of Grandpa Martin was reduced a lot.
"You are so sweet. Shawn can make me angry as soon as he opens his mouth."
In the opposite of the round table, when Rosalyn Lawson noticed Norah and Grandpa Martin talking
together happily, her eyes were full of envy and anger.
Especially when she found out that the person was the one who had just been pushed into the
swimming pool, she got all the more furious.
Ingrid Yank tugged at Rosalyn's clothes, "Rosie, who is she? I've never seen her before. Why is she
sitting next to your grandfather?"
"Look at you. You're thousands of miles away from your grandpa. You're as stupid as a pig. That seat is
so close to your grandpa and you can talk to him. Why don't you sit there but let an outsider take
advantage of it."
Rosalyn felt extremely aggrieved, "Mom, Don't talk nonsense, how do you know I didn't go to that seat."
"What do you mean?" Ingrid noticed something was wrong.
"As soon as I knew Grandpa's seat, I immediately sat next to him and waited. As a result, Grandpa
threw me away, saying that someone wanted to sit and let me sit here."
"Isn't there another seat next to Grandpa?"
After Ingrid finished speaking, she looked at the seat eagerly.
Rosalyn pouted and said impatiently, "Mom, you know nothing. That's Shawn's seat. How can I sit
there?"
"Speaking of Shawn, why hasn't he come yet? he's late for his grandfather's birthday. He is so
disrespectful. I think..."
Before she finished her words, James ran over happily, "Young master is back."
The next moment, the figure of Shawn appears at the entrance of the hall. He wore the same black suit
as in the morning. He walked through the large and small table seats, and finally came near the
grandfather, sitting on the left side of him.
Norah was stunned.
Why does he come alone?
why didn't he bring Lilian with him?
As soon as Shawn came, the lunch started.
Although grandpa always scolded Shawn outwardly, he actually liked this grandson very much.
In addition, he is the only grandson that grandpa recognized. So grandpa takes it for granted.
At the banquet, Norah was a little tasteless. She always had a question in her mind, where is Lilian?
Didn't they come together?
Or, whether he will call her out again after the banquet is over and the guests leave?
The phone dinged, Norah looked at it, and it was a message sent by Shawn, "What makes you so
absorbed that you even don't want to have lunch?"
"I am thinking about Lilian." Norah replied.
Shawn, "?" This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Norah couldn't help asking, "Didn't you bring her back? Why didn't she come in?"
"Enjoy your meal, what are you thinking about every day in your little head? It's all messed up."
"When did I say I was going to bring her here?"
"Do you think you are stupid? Or am I stupid?"
Norah, "..."
He does not hesitate to seize every opportunity to tease her.
When eating the meal, Rosalyn finally couldn't help saying, "Brother, where is your wife? It's been two
years since you were married, and your sister I have never seen her. Today is Grandpa's eighth
birthday. Why she doesn't turn up?"
Shawn glanced at her coldly, his eyes were already full of warnings.
If Rosalyn just keeps her mouth shut and everybody will forget about it.
But she was too bold and insisted, "Shawn, your wife is too naive. No wonder she comes from a poor
family. And she doesn't respect grandpa at all."
In fact, we are just curious, whether she is fat or thin? Beautiful or ugly? You can let us have a look and
relieve our curiosity!"
Seeing this, Ingrid also exaggerated, "Yes, ah, Shawn, your sister is right, I especially want to take a
look. I heard that she was too obsessed with you and insisted on marrying you. She is so shameful."
Before Ingrid's words were finished, suddenly, Shawn put down the chopsticks in his hand, and his cold
eyes shot at him like arrows.
