Chapter 165 The Fatal Tenderness
Three minutes later.
When Norah opened the door and saw Shawn standing outside the door, she was a little surprised.
"Why are you here?"
"Didn't you say you sprained your ankle?" Shawn said.
Originally when he saw her staying with Matthew, he was very angry.
Later, when he heard that she was injured and sprained her ankle, he suddenly lost any anger in his
heart.
He just wanted to come up and see her quickly and see how her injury was.
Suddenly, Norah felt light, and the next moment she was picked up by Shawn.
He carried her, walked straight to the sofa, and put her down.
At that moment, Norah felt that he was more familiar with her home than his own home.
And he was so gentle and considerate all of a sudden, which made her really feel flattered.
"Where is the injury? Let me see."
Shawn squatted down and reached out to take off her shoes to check the injury.
Norah hurriedly withdrew her foot and said embarrassedly, "No need. It just hurt a little when I sprained
just now. I've seen it. It's not very serious."
"It's not very serious? But how serious is it?"
After saying that, he was still resolute, and grabbed Norah's foot.
His strength was strong and he gripped so tightly that Norah couldn't move at all, so she could only let
him take off her slipper.
And then, the sock on the foot.
As soon as the sock was taken off, the wound on her ankle was instantly exposed in front of Shawn.
Almost instantly, his expression became serious, and his voice became deep, "It's so red and swollen,
so you still say it's not serious?"
Norah whispered, "I just applied the medicine. It will be fine if the swelling goes away after I wake up
tomorrow morning." NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
"The swelling is so big. Do you really think it will disappear overnight?" Shawn asked back.
Norah, "..."
She touched her nose silently without speaking.
"What medicine did you apply? Let me see." Shawn asked.
Norah pointed to the ointment on the table. Shawn picked it up, glanced at it, and threw it on the table
directly.
And then he dialed Anthony's phone number, "Send me some commonly used medicines, and I want
the most effective ones. I'm at Norah's home."
After hanging up the phone, Anthony was still thinking about the meaning of the last sentence.
Mr. Lawson was at Miss Norah's home?
I see.
So, the reason why Mr. Lawson couldn't wait to leave today was that he was going to see his wife?
Thinking of this, Anthony immediately became excited. Mr. Lawson and Miss. Norah were going to
reconcile, so he must deliver the medicines quickly. He couldn't hold Mr. Lawson back.
Half an hour later, Anthony knocked on the door of Norah's house.
It was Shawn who opened the door. Anthony originally wanted to say hello, but Mr. Lawson took the
medicine box and directly closed the door without saying a word.
Anthony was left alone looking at the closed door while signed, "Mr. Lawson, I originally wanted to tell
you that the sky is very gloomy, and there may be heavy rain in a while, so please be careful."
But when getting off the elevator, Anthony thought about it in another way, and he was glad he didn't
say it.
After half an hour of icing, Norah's foot had less swelling, but it was still very red.
Shawn pressed it and asked, "Does it hurt?"
"It's okay."
However, after a few presses, Norah suddenly couldn't help crying out. "Ouch. It hurts."
And then Shawn explained, "It's so red that it must be painful. The reason you didn’t feel the pain just
now was that you had been applying ice compresses. Now that the cold feeling subsides, you will
naturally hurt."
"This medicine is very good. I’ll apply some for you, and you can apply it again before going to bed."
"Okay."
After applying the medicine, Norah instantly felt a slight coolness coming from her ankle, which relieved
the pain and made her feel much more comfortable.
After finishing all this, Shawn picked up Norah's slipper and prepared to put it on for her.
Norah immediately took it and said, "I'll do it myself!"
When they were husband and wife, he never helped her take off her socks or shoes. She didn't expect
that after they got divorced, he would condescend to do these things.
It would be a lie to say that she was not surprised, but she was only surprised.
She no longer had the courage to associate these actions with the words like "like" and "love".
Shawn had already put away the medicine box, and when he was about to close the lid, suddenly, his
eyes fell on the medicine on the table.
As if staring at it for a long time, he said, "Did you apply this medicine yourself, or did he apply it to
you?
He?
Norah was stunned for a moment and suddenly realized that the "he" in Shawn's words referred to
Matthew.
A stabbing pain came from her heart, which was immediately covered up by her silently.
She lowered her eyelashes, and gently said, "Am I such a frivolous woman in your heart?"
"Don't say the divorce. Even if it is the normal breakup between boyfriends and girlfriends, there is no
such a woman who begins the next relationship so quickly. Shawn, have you already determined in
your heart that I am falling in love with Matthew?"
"We've only been divorced for a few days, and he's picking you up from work and taking you home.
What do you want me to think?"
Shawn regretted after he said that.
He always thought that he had superior EQ and IQ, and these were what he had always been proud
of.
But as soon as he encountered something related to her and Matthew, his IQ went straight to zero.
Neither of them spoke, and even the air became quiet.
Shawn looked at the time. It was already 10:00 pm.
He had to leave even if he didn't want to.
"I'm going home first. You get some rest."
"I'll see you off."
They reached the door together. Shawn opened the door and was about to walk out when a
thunderstorm suddenly struck down with a particularly loud sound, as if it was going to split the whole
sky.
Hearing the sound of thunder, Norah subconsciously covered her ears.
Shawn immediately remembered her fear of thunder and asked, "Are you afraid?"
"A little." Norah said truthfully.
Shawn opened his lips and was about to say, "Or I ......"
But before he finished saying, Norah pursed her lips and said, "But I have to adapt to this sooner or
later, and I should not be afraid after a few more experiences."
"It's raining heavily outside. Did you bring an umbrella?"
Shawn shook his head.
"Then wait a minute, and I'll get an umbrella for you, or you'll go downstairs with wet clothes."
"Okay."
At this moment, he really hoped that she could not find the umbrella.
After waiting for a few minutes, Norah came out and looked at him embarrassed, "I seemed to forget to
take my umbrella the day I left from your house."
"Is that the only umbrella you have?" Shawn asked.
Norah nodded, "Yeah, I only have one."
The wind howled outside, the rain got heavier and heavier, and even the windows were rattling.
Norah took a look and was very worried.
Suddenly, she thought of something and immediately said, "How about asking Anthony to come here
again to send you an umbrella."
Shawn said, "I'll try."
It seemed that Anthony had predicted this, and his phone was off.
Seeing Shawn taking down his phone without saying a word, Norah immediately asked, "What's
wrong?"
"His phone was off."
