Mr Carroll Went Crazy After Divorce

Nevaeh looked at the man thoughtfully, not wanting to continue the conversation. She got up and went to help Maisy in the kitchen.

The two of them plotted together in the kitchen, making sure everything was going smoothly before walking out together.

“Come on, wash your hands and let’s eat,” Maisy said as she looked at her excellent son with joy. She had been waiting for so long and after today, she was hopeful that she would finally be able to have a grandchild.

Sion glanced at his mother and felt like her behaviour was a bit strange today. He didn’t say anything but casually got up from his seat and sat down at the table, picking at his food.

What he didn’t notice was that while he was lost in thought, Maisy exchanged a glance with Nevaeh.

Throughout dinner, only Maisy and Nevaeh spoke occasionally while Sion remained silent. His heavy heart could be seen on his cold face.

Maisy watched him all day being preoccupied with other people’s children. What kind of business is that? It would be better if he made one himself.

She turned her gaze towards Nevaeh and said, “Nevaeh dear! You’ve worked hard cooking. After you finish eating go rest with Sion in the living room for a chat. I’ll take out the trash.”

She couldn’t help but chuckle inwardly; once she left they wouldn’t come back inside again – it’s up to Nevaeh now!

Nevaeh instantly understood what was happening and replied gently, “Maisy, thank you.”

Maisy smiled approvingly as she quickly washed dishes before taking out the trash bag ready to leave. Sion followed behind her towards the door saying, “Perfect timing. Let’s go together, I’ll take you home after we throw this away.”

Since he already knew what he wanted to know, there wasn’t any need for him to stay any longer than necessary.

Suddenly Nevaeh swayed slightly as if she was about to faint.

“Oh my goodness!” exclaimed Maisy, whose expression changed immediately, pushing Sion forward and saying, “Something isn’t right with Nevaeh? Quickly bring her into the living room!”

Seeing how Nevaeh reacted made Maisy proud of herself for choosing such an intelligent daughter-in-law, who could pretend to faint, knowing full well that there was no way Sion, as a doctor, would ignore it.

Maisy pushed Sion into the room, her tone becoming slightly forceful towards the end. Seeing her son’s unhappy expression, she softened her voice and said, “You and Nevaeh are friends. Taking care of her a little bit isn’t too much to ask, is it?”

Sion’s forehead furrowed as he slowly felt his temper rising. He turned his head to look at Nevaeh.

She was pale and clutching at her chest as if struggling for breath.

“Go ahead,” Maisy said before walking out and closing the door behind her without regard for Sion’s expression.

“Sion…”

Nevaeh reached out a hand to grab onto his arm as if she were about to faint any moment now.

Sion sighed helplessly as unnamed anger surged within him. He tried not to show it though, helping Nevaeh back onto the couch before pouring a glass of water from the table beside them. As a doctor by profession, he asked inquiringly, “Where do you feel uncomfortable?”

“I think I’m just anaemic.” Nevaeh gasped twice before finishing off the water in one go, and he continued, “I’m feeling better now.”

Sion took hold of the glass from her hand with ease while saying casually, “Let me take you to the hospital.”This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Sion, I don’t need to go there.” Nevaeh suddenly held on tight onto his hand with increased agitation in both face and chest but also shyness creeping up on it too, “If you stay here with me then I’ll be cured.”

Her eyes filled with anticipation as she leaned closer towards him.

“I’ve been waiting for so many years for you. Don’t tell me that you still don’t understand my heart?”

Maisy had added something special to Sion’s soup earlier. Surely after such a long time, its effects should have kicked in by now. She didn’t believe Sion could resist Nevaeh this time. Thinking this way made it seem like all of her wishes were coming true right then and there.

Suddenly feeling hot all over his body, Sion tried remedying by loosening up his tie. Sion understood what exactly had been done when he saw how Neveah was acting now.

“So you drugged me?” His words carried anger. He glared fiercely at Neveah, who was currently taking advantage of how affected he was by whatever substance had been put into him earlier.

“I love you too much…” Her voice sounded pitiful even though she continued speaking while quickly moving closer towards him again. Her hand traced down past his lips towards his throat.

“… but no matter what I did or said before… you never paid attention.”

Nevaeh leaned forward trying hard not to make herself look desperate or overly eager, but instead appearing coy yet dignified. Just when she thought their lips would finally meet though, Sion regained some clarity and pushed her away from himself forcefully enough. His forehead was already sweating, and the fire burning in his heart was tormenting him.

“Nevaeh, I don’t love you.”

Even in this situation, he couldn’t go against his own heart.

Nevaeh was stunned by his words. Her heart shattered once again after being rejected for five years. Her eyes suddenly became fierce as she gritted her teeth and said, “Sion, I don’t mind. As long as I can be with you, I don’t mind anything.”

Nevaeh leaned closer to him again. This time she had to succeed.

Sion’s gaze grew colder and colder. The effect of the medicine made him more restless but he couldn’t come up with any ideas. He even had an impulse to throw her out of the room.

The woman in front of him looked seductive but no matter how she teased him, it made him feel strange and disgusted. If that was the case, then how had he spent that night with Nevaeh?

“Sion, come on.”

Nevaeh held onto his hand tightly as she leaned in for a kiss.

Suddenly another face came into Sion’s mind.

Aurora…

He took a deep breath and suppressed the heat inside his body before pushing her away forcefully.

“Nevaeh, it seems like you still don’t understand me.”

He stood up and straightened himself out while fixing his coat, which had been messed up by her earlier advances. His voice turned cold enough to send chills down one’s spine, “Don’t do this anymore or else there will be nothing left between us.”

After speaking these words, without hesitation, he walked away quickly from Nevaeh’s apartment building, taking deep breaths of fresh air before finally managing to suppress what he felt inside.

After tonight, Sion was certain that woman wasn’t Nevaeh.

With that thought on his mind, Sion drove directly towards Aurora’s residence.
