Fated to Love You Again (Shawn and Norah)

Chapter Five Lilian Was Crippled

"Norah, who asked you to use such a tone..."

Shawn hadn't finished his words yet.

Suddenly, the driver braked abruptly.

Norah was bumped into Shawn's arms. She was in a dizzy.

Fortunately, Shawn covered her head with his hands, otherwise her head would be wounded.

The driver kept apologizing. "I'm sorry, Mr. Lawson."

"Drive more carefully."

Shawn said this coldly and turned to look at Norah. "Who asked you to use such a tone?"

"Honey, it's you. You told me to ask you nicely!"

Norah continued to use a soft and charming voice.

It was the first time she acted like this since they were married.

She used to be afraid that he wouldn't like it and thought it was too pretentious, so she controlled her urge.

Now that they were going to divorce anyway, she was much balder.

Anyway, even if he didn't like it, it was the last time.

"Sit well." Shawn looked at Norah.

Norah immediately sat upright.

"Speak normally in the future." He urged her again.

"All right."

He seemed extremely dissatisfied with her answer. "All right? Did you heard what I said?"

"Yes."

"It's useless to just hear it. You have to remember it."

"Especially remember not to use such a tone to other men." Shawn said again.

After he said that, he couldn't help but scolded himself in a low voice, "Shawn, what are you doing?"

He was crazy!

You were about to get divorced soon. After the divorce, she could talk like this to whomever she wanted. It was none of your business!

He loosened his tie irritably, and then he felt his breathing eased a little.

When rubbing the medicine, Shawn's movements were very gentle.

His fingers gently rubbed the skin of Norah's neck, itching like a feather. Especially his breath, which all fell on her ears. It was charming.

Norah couldn't help trembling slightly.

Shawn's fingers also trembled.

His eyes were deep, making it impossible to see the emotions inside.

After finally applying the medicine, Norah breathed a sigh of relief.

At the intersection of traffic lights, Shawn suddenly spoke.

"Turn left and go to the mall."

Norah was puzzled, "Aren't you going to the company today?"

"Grandpa's birthday is ahead of schedule, and we haven't prepared a gift yet."

Norah understood his explanation and nodded. "I'll go with you."

The two went directly to the jewelry floor, and as soon as they arrived at the store, they heard someone calling softly, "Shawn!"

Norah turned around and saw Lilian.

For a moment, she was stunned.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she couldn't believe it.

Because she clearly saw Lilian sitting in a wheelchair.

How come?

What happened to her legs?

She had never heard anyone say that Lilian was crippled. Wasn't she a dancer?

Norah was shocked and stood there in a daze, unable to react for a long time.

Until Shawn opened his mouth. "Why are you here? The air-conditioning in the mall is so cold. Why are you wearing so little? Are you cold?"

As he spoke, he had already taken off his coat and put it on Lilian.

She looked at Norah embarrassedly. "I'm not cold actually. He's just too nervous, for fear that I'll catch a cold."

This was clearly said to her on purpose.

Norah lowered her head and said nothing.

Lilian looked at Shawn again. "I heard that grandpa's birthday is ahead of schedule. I want to pick a gift for him. It's good you came here. Do you know what grandpa likes? Would you like to pick it with me?" "Okay!"

Lilian was immediately happy. She smiled like a gentle little woman.

"Mandy, I'm a little thirsty. Give me my water, please."

"Miss, I'm sorry. The bottle is empty now. I'll call and ask them to send another bottle."

Shawn immediately opened his mouth. "It will take a long time. I'll fetch some water for you. You two wait here."

Then, he looked at Norah. "I'll be right back."

"Okay!" Norah nodded.

After Shawn left, Lilian also sent Mandy to run some errands.

There were only she and Lilian now.

Norah moved his lips, and just as she was about to speak, Lilian said first, "That's how he has always been. As long as it's related to me, no matter how trivial it is, he will do it himself."

"I also talked about this with him. It is OK to leave it to the assistant to do, but he said that he would be more assured if he did this himself."

Although she didn't want to hear the love between them, these words still penetrated into Norah's mind.

Shawn was really attentive.

After two years of marriage, he did not miss a single one of her birthdays, anniversaries, or festivals.

But every time, he asked Anthony to arrange it.

He never once did it himself.

And Lilian was just getting hot water, and he wanted to do it himself.

Sure enough, comparison hurt more.

Norah, you lost completely.

The two were silent for a while before Lilian sopke. "Let's have a chat."

"OK." Norah nodded.

Seeing her staring at her legs, Lilian said, "It seems that you really don't know."

Norah shook her head. "I've never heard of it. How did your legs be like this? Shawn didn't tell me."

"Of course he didn't tell you." Lilian's tone became emontional.

Perhaps she realized it, she took a deep breath and immediately controlled her emotions. "Sorry, I'm a little emotional."

"I'm afraid no one dares to tell you, including Shawn and the others of the Lawson family."

"Why?"

"Martin is the absolute authority of the family. Who would dare to disobey his orders?"

Seeing that Norah was puzzled, Lilian continued.

"The Lawson family protects you very well, especially Martin. Norah, although you came from a poor family with no background at all, you are so lucky."

"Did Martin treat you like his own granddaughter just because your mother saved their lives? I sometimes think, if the person who saved them was my mother, would it be possible for me to have a different ending with Shawn? Would I be able to marry him as I wished?"

Norah had a bad feeling in her heart.

For some reason, she felt that something she didn't know was revealed to her layer by layer.

"What do you mean?"

Norah's breathing became a little fast.

"Back then, Grandpa Martin wanted you to marry Shawn, but Shawn didn't agree at all. The two were deadlocked for a long time. Shawn was young after all, and the power of the Lawson family was in the hands of Martin. He used various methods to force Shawn, who was unable to resist successfully in the end, so he could only be forced to marry you."

"No, you're lying."

Norah suddenly resisted her words violently.

She couldn't accept that her marriage was a persecution.

Lilian smiled helplessly. "What I said is the truth. Shawn married you only because he wanted to protect me."
