Chapter 3 Let's get divorced

The man's tall figure came closer and closer, striding past her without stopping.

She didn't know if he didn't see her, or turned a blind eye.

Maeve saw that the girl in his arms had the same face as the one in the news.

--It was Shirley Lynn.

Maeve dragged her heavy feet and left the hospital.

She was in a daze, and her whole body was wooden.

In the taxi, the driver asked Maeve where she was going.

The simple question made Maeve stunned.

She didn't want to go back to Treetop Villa, maybe it wouldn't be her home soon.

After a moment, she said, "Master, please go to Clear Water Bay."

The apartment in Clear Water Bay was bought by her after marriage.

At the beginning, she thought about bringing her grandmother to live here in her old age, so she bought a 69-square-meter apartment with a mortgage. Although it was small, it was enough for two people.

At that time, Shaun didn't understand and said he would give her a big house, but she refused.

Now, this can be said to be the only correct decision she made.

When she arrived at the downstairs of the apartment, she sat alone in the park and blew the cold wind, trying to blow herself awake.

Looking back on the past, there were both sweetness and bitterness.

Two years - more than seven hundred days and nights.

She thought that even if people's hearts were made of stone, they could be warmed up.

But now, there seemed to be countless laughters surrounding her ears, telling her that all this was just her foolish wishful thinking...

Maeve went upstairs late at night. As soon as she got out of the elevator, she saw Shaun standing in front of the door.

He rolled up his sleeves casually, unbuttoned two buttons on his shirt collar, revealing his slender neck and half of his beautiful collarbone. He stood there, handsome and charming.

Maeve was stunned for a few seconds.

Wasn't he accompanying Shirley in the hospital?

How could he be here...

The two of them looked at each other, and Shaun put his coat on his arm and hands in his pocket, squinting at her.

"Why didn't you answer the phone?"

He looked very indifferent, as if he hadn't rested well, and was a little bit angry.

Maeve took out her mobile phone, and it turned out that she accidentally pressed the mute button.

There were five missed calls on it, all from Shaun.

This was the first time in two years.

Shaun called so many times because he couldn't find her.

If it was in the past, she would definitely be extremely happy, happier than winning the lottery.

But now, Maeve threw the phone back into the bag, stood against the wall, and spoke in a hoarse voice, "I didn't hear it."

Shaun raised his hand, lowered his eyebrows and looked at his watch, and there was a hint of impatience in his voice, "I looked for you for two hours."

After he settled Shirley, he returned home and found it empty. After searching for a long time without success, he even asked Zayne to check the surveillance along the way after she left the company.

Unexpectedly, she actually returned to Clear Water Bay without even saying anything to him.

"Say something wherever you go next time, let's go." Shaun turned around and walked towards the elevator without even looking at her.

He meant to go back to Treetop Villa.

Maeve looked at the man's tall and broad back, and felt a little reluctant and greedy in her heart.

In the future... will they have a future?

Shaun turned around and saw her standing still, frowning, "Waiting for me to hug you?"

His delicate face was illuminated by the sensor light on the top, so beautiful that there was no flaw.

Maeve took a deep breath and looked at him, "Shaun, let's get a divorce."

"What do you mean?"

Shaun's voice was cold, and his handsome face was dark for a moment.

"I'm going to move back home. Anyway, we won't have any relationship soon--"

Maeve forced a smile, but her heart couldn't help but hurt, as if someone was tearing her heart hard.

"Relationship?"

Shaun pulled up the corner of his mouth, and his smile was cold, "Maeve, what kind of relationship do you think we have?"

The man's questioning made Maeve's breath stagnate.

That's right, from the beginning, Shaun's attitude was very positive. They agreed on a marriage, and they didn't talk about feelings outside of bed. In the eyes of others, they had no relationship outside of work.

Shaun was also the most famous golden bachelor in North City, and many socialites were scrambling to pursue him.

Now the man reminded her again, is he afraid that she will rely on him?

Maeve bit her lower lip, swallowed the bitterness in her throat, nodded and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ford, I thought too much, please go back, and don't come to Clear Water Bay again in the future."

After speaking, Maeve still couldn't help but teared.

How could she not be sad? This is the man she has loved for ten years...

But even if it is difficult, she has to learn to let go.

She couldn't let herself live like a joke.

The sensor lights in the corridor flickered.

Shaun narrowed his eyes slightly, pursed his thin lips, and exuded dangerous signals all over his body.

He could indulge her occasional temper, but this time she really crossed the line!

The anger that was about to overflow disappeared when he saw a glimmer of water in her eyes. He lowered his voice, "If it's because of Sadie--"

"It has nothing to do with her, Mr. Ford, please go back."

There was more than just Sadie between them.

Maeve felt very tired, and she walked around him to open the door and prepare to go in.

Shaun was very displeased with Maeve's stubborn attitude.

He pulled his tie irritably, then took a step forward, grabbed her wrist, and held it tightly.

"Can you stop making trouble?"

The next second, he frowned even deeper, and directly put his arm around her shoulders, turned around, and pressed her in his arms.

His arms were hot, as if he was holding a piece of red-hot carbon.

"Fever?"

Maeve felt dizzy and rested in the man's arms listlessly, even her legs were weak.

There was an indescribable ambiguity in the air.

Especially when the man looked down, as if he was going to kiss her in the next second.

Maeve's mind seemed to be half a beat slower. When she realized that this posture was too ambiguous, she subconsciously put her hand against the man's chest and was about to step back.

As a result, before she could move her feet, she was pinched by the waist and pulled back. Shaun said in a cold voice, "Why are you hiding?"

The light above shook, Maeve's body lightened, and she was picked up horizontally.

The man walked towards the elevator without hesitation.

Maeve's brain was a little confused, and she whispered, "What are you doing?"

Shaun frowned slightly, "Going to the hospital."

"No!"

Maeve exclaimed, and she was mostly awake.

If she was given an infusion, the little life in her belly would be threatened!

Although this baby may not be welcomed, as long as the baby is in her body for one day, she is the baby's mother, and she has the obligation to protect this baby!

She struggled to get out of Shaun's arms, but he was too strong, holding her tightly with his two arms, and she couldn't get away at all.

"If you are sick, you have to see a doctor." Shaun ignored her struggle and said in a tone that did not allow for argument.

The man held her and walked towards the elevator. Maeve's heart was about to jump out of her chest. She grabbed his arms and blurted out anxiously.

"I can't go to the hospital!"
