Chasing After My Beloved Wife novel Chapter 15

Everyone was preparing to have breakfast downstairs. Seeing that Joye had not come down, Baird couldn't help but glare at Shawn beside him.

"Where's Joye? Why isn't she coming down for breakfast? Get her now."

"Dad, she wants to sleep in. Why must you ask Shawn to wake her up?"

As she spoke, Xaria glanced at the servant and signaled for the servant to call Joye down. However, Baird stopped the servant, "He sinned, so he should do it instead."

Shawn stood up indifferently and went up to the second floor.

Walking to the door, he took out an exquisitely packaged pill from his pocket. He had lost control last night and had accidentally left his seed in her.

His hand froze on the handle of the door momentarily as he stared at the pill in his other hand. After a few seconds of hesitation, he stuffed it back into his pocket.

As soon as Joye came out of the dressing room, the door was pushed open from the outside. She thought it was a servant and didn't expect to see Shawn leisurely leaning against the door frame.

In an instant, her eyes turned cold.

It seemed that what had happened a night ago meant nothing to him.

"Don't look at me like that. I'm just here to call you down for breakfast."

He spoke casually before heading downstairs in his indoor slippers.

After tidying herself up, she went downstairs and into the dining area. When Baird saw her, he immediately smiled brightly.

"What time did you come home last night? Did you sleep well?"

Although the funeral was grand, he knew he could never make up for the loss she had suffered.

"She slept well."

Shawn raised his head and answered after taking a sip of his soup. The corners of his mouth lifted, causing Joye to clench her fists under the table.

"That's good to know. Sometimes, sleeping makes things easier," Baird said with a smile.

Joye knew that he was referring to her family, but she couldn't help but remember the scene in the bathroom from the night before.

"Grandpa, Leonard Group has been busy, so I rented an apartment next to the company. I am planning to move in today, so I don't have to spend so much time traveling. Is that okay?"
