Chapter 137 Got Their Certificates
It was late at night when Shawn returned to his room. Norah was already asleep.
He had lightened his movements and slept on the floor, more like lying down than sleeping.
He couldn't sleep all night.
Early the following day, the two packed their things and returned home.
As they left, Norah took one last look at the place with a lingering look in her eyes.
Although the place was small, she liked it because of their Grandparents' love story.
This was Shawn's grandparents' house. After the divorce, she could never have the chance to come
back.
Later, he might bring others, such as his beloved girl, his next wife, his children...
Thinking about it, Norah suddenly felt her heart prick and pinch.
Soon the past would be past. She shouldn't bother about it!
She could not keep what didn't belong to her.
"Let's go!" Norah turned around.
It was just about ten in the morning when the plane arrived, as Norah and Shawn had left early.
After getting off the plane, Norah asked Shawn, "Are you free today?"
"Yes."Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
"Then we can get divorced today. Let's go to Mom and Dad's together, pick up our papers, and get the
divorce paperwork done."
When he heard this, Shawn was dumbfounded, as if lightning struck him.
He knew that she had made up her mind and was determined to divorce.
But he had never thought it would be so soon. She wanted to get divorced as quickly as they got off the
plane.
Couldn't she wait to divorce him?
Shawn felt heartbroken.
Shawn's long fingers were almost white from the force he clenched the case. It took him a long time to
squeeze a word out of his throat, "OK."
The two got in the car together and went to the old mansion.
Neither Susan nor Marty was at home when they arrived, which made it easier for them to pick up their
papers.
Norah was relieved, and so was Shawn. Shawn said, "Since Mum and Dad aren't here, we shall return
another time to get our certificates."
But Norah said, "It's good that Mom and Dad aren't here. We can pick up the papers in case they
disagree with our divorce."
Shawn was confused and asked, "Aren't they keeping the certificates? We can't do the paperwork if we
do not have certificates."
"The papers are in Grandpa's room, and he gave the key to Mom before he left." Said Norah, pulling
out the key, "Mom gave it to me long ago."
Shawn was frozen for a moment. It took him a moment to react. Shawn looked at the bag on Norah's
waist, "So, you had taken the keys with you before we went to Grandpa's house."
"Yes. I don't have to run back to get them again." Norah said.
Her softly spoken words made Shawn feel heartbroken.
She had the keys with her, meaning she planned to get divorced.
That was why she had been too impatient to get the paperwork done after getting off the plane.
Was it so torturous, so unbearable for her to be with him now?
Shawn raised his head with his heart full of astringency, "Norah, you thought of all these a long time
ago, didn't you?"
Norah looked at him and answered calmly, "Now that we've decided to divorce, our action should be
quick, right?"
God knew how much courage it took her to propose divorce and how much pain she felt. She was
afraid that she would change her mind later and didn't want to divorce Shawn.
These days, they got along so well that she even thought they were in love and lived happily.
But when she saw everything, she woke up.
Love?
How could Shawn love her?
It was her one-woman show all the time.
It had been ten years. She was tired.
Norah didn't want to chase after him anymore. She wanted a break.
When she got to Grandpa's room, Norah quickly opened the second compartment of the drawer with
the key.
There were the papers Grandpa had left her and a letter.
"Norah:
After I pass away, the one I'm worried about most was you. Your mother passed away, and Dad has no
sense of responsibility. Shawn always has Lilian in his mind and wants to divorce you.
Girl, I know it. I have been in business for years, so that I can see many things. But I do not want to
debunk all these affairs.
People say it is important for a woman to marry the right man, but I'd say it's important for a man to
marry the right wife.
Susan and you are the best daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law in my mind.
One day, when you are old and have children and are in charge of the family, you must remember my
words. The Lawson family is already wealthy and powerful enough. It is a magnificent family in its own
right, and we don't need to add to it through our offspring's marriage.
Our kids should marry someone with good characteristics and a kind heart. Their partners do not have
to come from a noble family.
Those who are not frugal, who love luxury life and do not work hard, will not always have a happy life
even if they are rich.
And those who work hard, even if they fall into poverty one day, will definitely rise again.
The Lu family has only been wealthy for three generations and will go on for a long time to come. You
may encounter some difficulties in the future. Only by working together can you couple get through the
difficulties. This is the heavy duty I want to give you. You should inherit this thought in Grandma's
stand. Only then can the Lawson family get its power and get better.
This is a pair of jasper earrings. When your Grandma passed away, she left two sets of precious
jewelry, including jasper bracelets and earrings and ruby bracelets and earrings. The rubies were given
to our daughter-in-law, Susan, your mother-in-law.
Another set was left for our grandson-in-law. I have already given you the bracelet. As for the earrings,
since I have been thinking of your Grandma, I keep them as a reminder. Now I'm dying. I want to leave
it to you.
Norah, I know that you have grievances in your heart. By the time you read this letter, I'm gone. If you
don't want to get a divorce, you can tell Marty and Susan. They will help you and will not let you divorce
Shawn.
If one day you are aggrieved and too tired to hold on. Iwon't force you. Although I don't want you to
leave our family, I prefer you live a happy life. If that day does come, and you divorce Shawn, I won't
blame you. I still wish you well.
You must be happy, girl. That is my greatest hope!"
After Norah finished reading the letter, she cried.
How thoughtful Grandpa had been. He had thought of almost every situation for her, giving her warmth
and care without putting her under any pressure.
"Grandpa, thank you."
"Grandpa, I'm sorry I cannot go ahead with Shawn anymore. Don't worry. I'll get on with my life and
won't let you down."
Norah took the papers down just in time to bump into Marty and Susan returning together.
