Chapter 593 He's Here
A baffled shake of her head was all she could manage. "It's okay. Shane should know by now, it's not a way to keep it from him. It's better to say it early than late. I'll find a way to appease him."
Winnie looked out the window, looking helpless.
That night, Lawrence R finished work and hurried to the hospital under the Rodriguez family only to find Madam Rodriguez was not in the ward.
His face tensed and he immediately ordered the bodyguards to call the nurse over.
A group of people stood nervously in the ward wordlessly when madam Rodriguez returned.
She walked in dejectedly, and the servant beside her reminded her, "Madam, Mr. Rodriguez is here."
Madam Rodriguez looked up in a daze, only then did she see her son, tall and sturdy, standing magnificently by the window.
In front of him, a row of bodyguards, all looking pale from the scolding.
"What are you doing, Lawrence?"
Lawrence R stubbed out his cigarette, furrowed his brow, and walked briskly toward his mother.
"You left the hospital, you should have told me. About the trouble Hellen caused you last time, you haven't forgotten, have you? Don't be so willful next time," he said coldly.
"You're lecturing me." Madam Rodriguez shook her head. "If you hadn't insisted on buying the villa near Winnie, I wouldn't have had to rush to explain to her."
At this point, madam Rodriguez stopped speaking. She was silent for a long time before she raised her hand to dismiss all the bodyguards gently.
Only one faint light was on in the ward which made it hard to distinguish madam Rodriguez's expression.
Lawrence R walked over, wanting to see clearly and found his mother crying.
"What's wrong with you?" His throat rolled. "Did Winnie treat you badly again?"
Madam Rodriguez could hardly contain her tears. She shook her head, slowly looked at her son, and said weakly, "Lawrence, let go of Winnie. Stop making things difficult for her. She's getting married next month, Rock proposed to her today, and she said yes. I didn't even know she had started a new relationship, since Winnie made such a big decision, I've also figured it out, I really can't be selfish. I love you and I love Winnie too, she's so likable. It's you, not trying hard enough!"
Madam Rodriguez's emotions were a bit agitated, she raised her hand and hit her son's hard chest. "When I came back, I saw Jeremy once, and then I found out that Ishara is pregnant with your child! Winnie must be thoroughly disappointed in you to choose Rock. How can you treat Winnie like this and hurt her, Lawrence?"
The tears in his mother's eyes pained Lawrence R.
He said hoarsely and coldly, "That child may not be mine."
"You're not even sure if it's your child!" Madam Rodriguez shook her head in disappointment. "Winnie has no mother, if she did, she would definitely feel sorry for her daughter. I can't let you continue to hurt her. Since Winnie has decided to get married, let her go, Lawrence. There are other women in the world, but only one Winnie. Don't force her anymore."
"I'm forcing her! She's forcing me too!" Lawrence R's eyes were deep and cold, and he crushed the cigar box in his hand.
He lowered his head, pressed the edge of the table in pain, and sneered, "There are many women in the world, but none of them are Winnie."
"You have to take responsibility for yourself, and for Ishara!" Madam Rodriguez looked at her son with heartache.
Lawrence R held her hand and placed it back on the bed, his expression casual. "Ishara and her child in her belly won't survive! Don't worry about it."
"What do you mean, I don't want you to ruin Winnie's wedding. Don't do anything childish."
"I'm not childish." Lawrence R's eyes were cold.
Madam Rodriguez looked horrified, shook her head with pity. "If you lose, you lose, Lawrence. Go see Shane, his personality is too much like yours, he's been crying all afternoon, I haven't been able to comfort him. The most helpless thing about separation is the child, help him through this tough time!"
Madam Rodriguez's words were cruel as her heart leaned toward Winnie.
However, who will help him through this tough time!
He will never be able to get through this tough time, nor will he choose to.
Lawrence R clenched his fists, turned and left the ward. "Rest well."
As his figure disappeared at the door, madam Rodriguez heard him make a phone call. "Jeremy, come out for a drink."
Madam Rodriguez sighed deeply. He had been getting drunk every night these days!
If it weren't for the needs of the Rodriguez family group, he would probably have fallen apart long ago, of course she knew about her son's suffering.
It's just that Winnie has already made a decision.
Late at night, Winnie woke up from a dream, feeling uneasy. She immediately got out of bed and walked to the next room.
"Shane!"
She dreamed that Shane was taken away by Lawrence R.
She knocked on the door, but there was no response inside.
Winnie frowned, took the key and opened the door to go in.
There was no sign of Shane in the children's room.
Panic seized her. Her face drained of color, and she bolted for the door.
Olivia ran into her. "Winnie, what's wrong with you?"
"Shane's gone! I had a slight fever, slept deeply, did you see him, how could he be missing?" Winnie wanted to go back to the room to get her phone.
Olivia held her hand, her eyes changed slightly, and comforted her, "Lawrence R came to see him. Shane's mood has been bad, so he went with his dad! I saw you sleeping so soundly, I didn't want to wake you up, so I took Shane out, don't worry."
"Is it really him?" Winnie pressed her pounding chest, her dream was too real.
"When did Shane leave?" Winnie didn't ask directly why Lawrence R had come.
However, Olivia took the initiative to say, "Around ten o'clock, Lawrence R's car appeared outside the villa, the headlights kept flashing. I was awakened by the light, thinking it was a bad person, I went out to see, Jeremy was holding the car door and vomiting, inside the car, Lawrence R was drunk. I've never seen them brothers like this, especially Lawrence R, those bloodshot eyes were scary. He stared at me, didn't move, even got out of the car and grabbed my neck, kept calling your name. I was scared, and we stood there, too scared to ask for help. Finally, he said he wanted to see Shane, I immediately agreed, Shane also wanted to see his dad, and he went into Lawrence R's arms by himself. They stayed outside for over an hour before Luke took them away. Lawrence R kept looking at your window outside, I don't know what he was thinking, he must be heartbroken. I guess madam Rodriguez went back and told him that Rock successfully proposed to you."
Winnie fell silent instantly.
She didn't speak for a long time, cold sweat slowly drying on her delicate back, the cool night breeze seemed to pierce her chest.
She shivered unconsciously, avoiding the topic, not mentioning Lawrence R. "It's too late, I'll contact Shane tomorrow. You go back to sleep too."
"Winnie!" Olivia looked at her cold and indifferent face, explaining, "I just suddenly felt that Lawrence R looked so scary and pitiful, before the car lights shone on me, he didn't know how long he had been waiting outside. Jeremy also told me that the previous few nights, he drove alone, sat there all night, and went to work at the Rodriguez family the next day. We didn't even notice him waiting outside your house, forget it, now it's too late for him to do these things, it's all useless!"
