Chapter 270 The Truth

Shawn immediately raised his head and reached out to touch his beard.

And then he looked at Norah, "Did it hurt?"

As he spoke, his hand had already fallen on Norah's tender cheek, stroking it gently.

The pads of his fingers were so warm and powerful that Norah instantly felt they were like feathers, tickling her heart.

"Kinda," She answered truthfully.

"What about now? Does it still hurt?"

"Much better."

However, Shawn did not get up and was still pressing on her.

Norah's head was in a mess. At this moment, she didn't know what she was going to say.

Suddenly, Shawn supported her, stretched his arm forward a little further, and then pulled hard.

Suddenly, he took his pajamas and got up from Norah.

At the same time, he explained, "My pajamas are inside. I need to take them and put them on after taking a shower."

"Okay." Norah nodded, suddenly feeling very embarrassed.

It turned out that she had misunderstood.

Soon, the sound of rushing water came from the bathroom.

After a while, Shawn came out after taking a shower and wearing pajamas.

After taking two quilts out of the cabinet, he started to make a bed on the floor.

When Norah saw this, she immediately got up from the bed and said, "Let me help you."

"Okay."

They quickly made a bed on the floor together.

At this moment, Shawn put an arm around her, and the gesture was almost like he was holding her whole body in his arms.

His breath was even more pervasive, wrapping around her tightly.

Norah was about to speak, but the next moment, he took a pillow in his hand, placed it quickly on the quilt, and immediately distanced himself from her. "Is there anything else I can help?"

"There's one more," he said.

"What ...?"

Before Norah finished speaking, suddenly, there was a burst of force on her wrist, and the next moment, she was pulled to his side by Shawn.

He reached out and held her in his arms.

A low voice whispered in her ears softly, "Check for me if there is still smell of smoke on my body."

After smelling, Norah shook her head and said, "It's much better. I can't tell if I don't smell carefully."

"Then I'm relieved."

Why were you relieved?

Norah was confused.

Shawn replied calmly, "I'm relieved that you won't hate the smell of me anymore."

Norah felt bad in her heart.

She really ddidn't like people smoking, nor did she like the smell of smoke.

However, what he didn't know was that she had never hated the smell of smoke on his body.

She even liked it.

She felt there was a huge difference between putting the exact same thing on him and on someone else.

But there was no need to tell him this.

The wall lamp was turned off, and both of them lay in their own beds.

The night was very quiet.

But in fact, neither of them fell asleep.

Ten minutes later, seeing that he was not asleep, Norah spoke softly, "Does what you told me about Professor Greer during the day still count?"

"Yes!"

In the dark night, his voice came out calmly and powerfully.

Norah couldn't help but get excited. "So, you know Professor Greer, right?"

"It's not me, it's Mom who knows him," Shawn said, "so I brought you home for dinner tonight. You can talk with Mom about this matter tomorrow, and Mom will definitely help you if you ask." "Okay, then I'll talk with Mom tomorrow."

After a moment of silence, Norah seriously called his name, "Shawn?"

"Huh?"

"Thank you. Thank you very much."

As soon as she finished speaking, Shawn suddenly stood up from the ground, walked to Norah, and looked at her condescendingly.

"Thank me for helping you contact Professor Greer, who can save Matthew's mother's life? So, are you thanking me for yourself or for Matthew?"

His eyes suddenly became extremely serious.

"Of course it's for me," Norah said.

Listening to her answer, Shawn finally felt a little comfort in his heart.

When Norah got up early in the morning, she went to find Susan.

In fact, she was still a little uneasy because she knew the matter would be difficult.

But she didn't expect that as soon as she finished speaking, her mother-in-law agreed without thinking.

"Okay, I'll help you to ask for Professor Greer personally."

"Mom, I've heard all about Professor Greer and his daughter. I'm sorry, but this thing I'm begging for you might be a little difficult."

"It's a bit not easy," Susan said honestly, "Vanessa is also my college classmate, and her death is a big blow to Uncle Greer, but I will try my best to give it a try."

"Wait for my news, and I'll let you know as soon as I have it."

"Okay, thanks Mom."

After breakfast, Shawn personally sent Norah to the hospital.

Before leaving, he looked at Norah with some desire to speak.

"Is there something you want to say to me?" Norah saw it and took the initiative to ask.

"It will be Grandpa's 100-day festival in five days, and the news of our divorce wasn't announced to the public, so you might still need to go back with me to honor Grandpa." Shawn said. "That's for sure. Regardless of our relationship, grandfather will always be my grandfather in my heart, and even if I'm not the the Lawson family's daughter-in-law anymore, I still love him." "Then I'll come a day early to pick you up and take you back to the old house."

"Okay."

Two days later, Norah received a call from her mother-in-law.

Her reply was simple and direct. "Norah, Uncle Greer agreed."

As Norah listened, she couldn't believe it. She thought she had heard wrong and asked again, "Mom, do you mean that Professor Greer really agreed?"

She thought it would take a long time and a lot of effort?

She was really not dreaming that it would be so easy once her mother-in-law stepped in.

"Well, Uncle Greer agreed. You can pass on the patient's details to me now, and I'll have someone send it to Uncle Greer later."

Norah was really too happy, and her tone was full of excitement. "Mom, thank you. You're really so awesome."

"You don't have to thank me," Susan said. "If you really want to thank somebody, then thank your Granpa."

Grandpa?

How was this related to Grandpa?

"Mom, is this related to Grandpa?" Norah asked in confusion.

"Yes, the reason Uncle Greer agreed to me was to do a favor. It was all because of your Grandpa. Do you remember your mentor?"

"Yes!"

Was this also related to her mentor?

"Your mentor is Uncle Greer's favorite disciple. When you took the exam for graduate school and became his disciple, your Granpa was very worried about you. He was afraid that you would be wronged, so he found someone to help you."

"But your Granpa didn't want you to know, so he didnt dare to find too directly. Uncle Greer was your Granpa's classmate. Knowing that he was doing a national medical research, your Granpa invested a lot of money to it. With the relatioship between Uncle Greer and your Granpa, your mentor would take more care of you.

Norah was greatly shocked after hearing this.

If it wasn't for this time to find Professor Greer, she really didn't know that her grandfather did so much for her. With trembling lips, she continued to ask.

"So, both I can get into this hospital now and my mentor introduce me to his wife are due to Grandpa, right?"
