My Big-Buck Ex Won't Let Me Go

Chapter 12 Windy Is Sick

As soon as he returned home, he was questioned by Mr. Ted. Shawn with a straight face, didn't say anything. He glanced at Windy, who seemed to be on a drip. He frowned slightly, looked at Marvin and asked, "What's wrong with her?"

Before Marvin could answer, Wilson walked to the side of Shawn and complained to him, "Windy took care of Carol yesterday for a whole daytime, and you didn't care about her at all. I heard from Nancy that she didn't have dinner last night when she came back. She was so tired that she slept until this morning, and now she has a high fever."

It turned out that Windy had a fever. Thinking that she was tired because of taking care of Carol, he walked to the bedside, stretched out his slender and good-looking hand and touched her forehead. It was really hot.

"Take good care of her." Shawn said lightly, turned around and walked out of the room without hesitation, as if he was treating an irrelevant person and didn't care about Windy at all.

Staring coldly at Shawn who was about to leave the room, Ted snapped, "Stop!"

Hearing the angry voice of Ted, Shawn stopped. His tall figure stood upright with his back to the people in the room, with a strong aura that could not be ignored.

"Wait for me in the living room." Ted said.

Shawn stood there in silence for a while, biting his lips tightly. Then he walked out of the room again.

After being scolded by Ted, Shawn didn't go to the hospital to see Carol anymore. After work in the afternoon, he received a call from her and asked him to go to the hospital to see her. But he found an excuse to refuse, saying that there was something to deal with in the company.

Feeling annoyed, Shawn didn't go home directly. Instead, he made an appointment with a few friends to drink together.

The Palace was one of the industries of the Dragon Empire group. It was a place of feasting, revelry and dissipation. It was always open to receive guests all day and night.

A luxurious black Rolls-Royce with domineering and arrogant momentum suddenly braked and stopped steadily at the gate of The Palace.

When the car door opened, a shiny black leather shoes fell into the eyes of people, followed by a pair of straight and long legs, and finally a cold, noble and arrogant handsome face, like ice and frost, gloomy, shot into people's sight, with a sense of coldness that could not be ignored.

The well cut black suit wrapped the perfect figure of the man.

He closed the door gracefully and walked into The Palace. Wherever he walked, many people looked back. Those who knew him bowed respectfully and called, "Mr. Shawn." Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Shawn didn't bother to look around from beginning to end. He walked steadily towards his exclusive VIP room.

"Brother is here." As soon as Shawn appeared, he heard the voice of Kyle.

Hearing this, the handsome and unrestrained man turned to look at Shawn, with a meaningful smile on Todd's face and eyes. He touched his chin and said slowly, "Why are you alone? Why don't you bring Windy?"

Hearing what Todd said, Shawn frowned and looked at him coldly. A few seconds later, he withdrew his gaze and walked to the sofa and sat down elegantly.

"Why should I bring her here?" Shawn took a sip of the Lafitte wine that he had already poured for him.

"Are you afraid that other men will covet her beautiful face?" Todd made a joke.

Although Todd and Shawn had been friends for many years, Todd didn't know much about Windy. They just met several times. What he didn't know was that Windy was such a beauty, but Shawn didn't like her very much. Instead, he fell in love with her sister. Why?

Hearing this, Shawn glanced at Todd coldly without any explanation.

Seeing that Shawn didn't say anything, Marvin explained for him, "She is sick."

Kyle smiled innocently, but deep inside, he was evil. "I see."

Hearing Marvin's explanation, Shawn turned to look at him. There was coldness in his eyes, as if blaming him for being nosy.

Knowing that his friend was used to being cold to others, Marvin didn't mind his indifference to himself. Instead, he persuaded him out of kindness, "Shawn, although Windy's fever has gone down at noon, she is still weak. You should pay more attention to her. Besides, you are already married, so you'd better not contact with Carol..."

"Did grandpa ask you to say that?" Shawn interrupted what Marvin had not been finished. His tone was full of displeasure, and his face was cold and appalling.

Marvin shook his head immediately. He knew that he had said something wrong and made his brother unhappy, so he said nothing more.

Seeing this, both of Todd and Kyle kept silent, fearing that their words would displease the head of Shawn again.

Shawn, who had always been irritable, now felt even more irritable because of the persuasion of Marvin. He held the red wine in his slender and good-looking hands, slowly shaking it, and finally raised his head and poured the whole glass of red wine into his stomach...

Because he was irritable and wanted to see his beloved woman. Shawn drank one after another, and the final result was that he was drunk.

Kyle and Marvin sent Shawn back to the Yu's manor. After handing him to Windy, the two left together.

"Why are you so drunk?" Looking at the drunken Shawn lying on the bed, Windy couldn't help frowning.

After taking off Shawn's clothes with difficulty, Windy was already very tired. Shaking her head helplessly, she went to the bathroom and fetched a basin of water to clean him.

All of a sudden, Windy's hand was grabbed. Shawn, who had closed his eyes, instantly opened his eyes and looked at Windy's beautiful face, which was a little similar to another person, so he was a little fascinated. He slowly raised a light smile on his lips.

This Shawn made Windy feel that he was no longer cold to her as usual. He looked so gentle, as if he had changed into another person. Unconsciously, she fell into his gentle eyes, and her heart began to beat wildly. However, he called, "Carol."

For a moment, Windy felt as if she had been struck by lightning. It turned out that Shawn regarded her as Carol. No wonder he showed such a gentle side to her.

Windy quickly withdrew her hand and turned her back to Shawn. She felt sad and wanted to cry, but she had to tell herself to be strong and not to be knocked down like this.
