Chapter 256 Being Angry And Jealous
The male nurse immediately looked at Norah, with a profound look in his eyes.
Norah shook her head quickly, "I'm not angry, nor jealous."
After saying that, she felt that there was something wrong with her answer, and immediately added,
"You misunderstood, I am not his girlfriend."
It was incredible to Shawn. His eyes immediately sank and lost any brilliance.
She denied it.
She flatly denied it with almost no hesitation.
The nurse left and the ward became quiet again, leaving only Norah, Shawn, and Anthony.
Norah opened her lips and was about to ask him how he felt or whether she could give him a favor.
Perhaps she could serve him some water.
However, just as the words jumped out of her mouth, Shawn's voice came coldly, "Dr. Chase, I'm very
glad that you took time to see me amid pressing affairs. I don't want to bother you anymore."
Dr. Chase?
Norah felt suffocated, but soon, she took a deep breath and forced herself to return to normal.
Suppressing the tumbling in her heart, Norah nodded, "I am indeed a bit busy. Since you have changed
the dressing, I think there is nothing serious. I will go back to work."
After saying that, Norah walked away.
What's more, she didn't say goodbye to him. The atmosphere was a little strange.
As soon as she went out, Norah heard the sound of cups being smashed inside.
One after another, each sound was crisp and harsh.
Norah stopped and stood leaning against the wall for a while. After she calmed down, she started
walking forward again.
In the ward, Anthony served Shawn carefully.
Others didn't know why Mr. Lawson suddenly became angry, but he certainly knew.
All the water glasses on the table were smashed by him but he didn't cool off with chest heaving with
deep breath. Anthony didn't try to calm him down but just waited silently.
Perhaps Shawn had vented all his anger. He lay down under the quilt, closed his eyes, and pretended
to sleep.
Anthony opened the door, called someone to clean the broken glass in the room, and at the same time
got up to chase Norah.
Norah had just taken a few steps after calming down when a voice called from behind, "Miss Norah,
please wait a moment."
Hearing Anthony's voice, Norah slowed down.
Anthony ran to catch up with her and said breathlessly, "Miss Norah, thank you for coming here to see
Mr. Lawson. Mr. Lawson asked me to take you down."
"Isn't he still angry?" Norah asked, "Are you sure he asked you to see me off?"
Anthony smiled to dissimulate, "You are so penetrated."
When they got downstairs and got off the elevator, Anthony finally said, "Miss Norah, in fact, you must
know why Mr. Lawson is angry."
Norah raised her head, sighed, and nodded lightly, "Well, I know."
But what could I do even if I knew?
"Those discerning people will know that what Mr. Lawson just has said is for you. He just hopes that
you can be happy and care for him. Even just a little bit will make him happy."
"But you acted too calmly. Or it seemed that you didn't care at all. When you asked the nurse to change
Mr. Lawson's dressing, didn't it mean you weren't jealous at all? Later, you denied that you were his
girlfriend. Mr. Lawson was so sad that he couldn't hold back his anger."
"However, your demeanor was too composed, one might even say indifferent. When you had the nurse
change Mr. Lawson's dressing, doesn't that indicate that you're not at all jealous? Later, you even
denied being his girlfriend in front of him. He was so heartbroken that he couldn't contain his anger."
"Furthermore, he didn't express his anger in your presence because he was afraid of scaring you.
However, he was tormented inside, which led to him smashing a glass. I've been with him for a long
time and rarely see him lose control like that."
"Miss Chase, Mr. Lawson truly cares about you."
Anthony spoke with genuine emotion, excelling in his personal assistant role.
In reality, even if he hadn't said these words, Norah would have known, wouldn't she?
"Anthony, thank you for your kindness. Having someone like you by his side is Mr. Lawson's good
fortune, and I'm genuinely happy for him."
"But..." Norah's voice was tinged with deep sadness. "There's too much distance and too many missed
opportunities between Shawn and me. It's not something that can be explained in a few words."
Everyone thought she was fine.
Yes, she smiled as usual every day, went to work as usual, chatted and laughed with colleagues, and
played around with them.
But deep down, only she knew that her heart was no longer the same.
She had let go of many attachments to love.
She no longer had any expectations.
She even felt that in the future, in the vast journey of life, it would be perfectly fine to be alone.
Anthony sighed and returned to the hospital room.
When he heard the door open, Shawn immediately perked up his ears. At the same time, he pulled
back the covers and sat up, looking at Anthony. "What did she say?"
As soon as Anthony left, he knew Anthony had gone to see her.
Anthony wasn't surprised either; with Shawn's sharpness, how could he not guess what he did?
"Miss Chase actually knows," he said. Shawn became even more upset, furrowing his brow deeply.
"She knew, yet still acting like that. Anthony, do you think she doesn't care about me at all? So, even if I
have other women, she doesn't care."
"Mr. Lawson, I don't know whether Miss Chase cares about you or not. But if you genuinely like her and
want to be with her, you should seriously pursue her instead of getting angry with her so easily."
Shawn hesitated for a moment. "You talk as if you have experience in love."
"Mr. Lawson, I have indeed had one relationship."
Shawn was shocked that his personal assistant had a girlfriend. He should have had no idea about that
as he was so close to him.
Anthony understood his thoughts and quickly explained, "Mr. Lawson, it's not your fault. I kept it from
you for a while, and when I wanted to tell you, we had already broken up."
"They say that outsiders have a clearer perspective on things. Right now, I'm an outsider, and I might
have a say in your and Miss Chase's relationship."
"Miss Chase has been hurt, and she's in the process of healing. If you want to pursue her, you should
do more to warm her heart and touch her, rather than pushing her away like this."
"That way, she'll only drift further from you."
After Anthony finished speaking, he still had some concerns deep down.
He wasn't sure if Mr. Lawson would take his words to heart.
Unexpectedly, Shawn listened attentively and said seriously, "Alright, I know what to do."
He pushed back the covers, adjusted his appearance seriously in front of the mirror, and then pushed
open the door to go downstairs to find Norah.
However, no one anticipated that Norah would meet Matthew at the hospital.
So, when Shawn went downstairs, coincidentally, he saw Norah and Matthew talking together. At noon,
they seemed to talk about something, and then they were sitting side by side in the elevator, heading
downstairs.
For a moment, Shawn's mind went blank.
Soon, he snapped out of it and desperately pressed the elevator button.
The elevator was crowded, and there were strong odors. Normally, he would never have gotten in. But
today, without thinking, he squeezed in, clutching his wound tightly.
He wanted to go down too. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
He wanted to see what they were going to do.
