Have I Told You Lately

The Shawn family's house was in Scenic Bay - a high-end residential community.

"Excuse me, Mrs. Shawn. Miss Torres came," a maid said to the woman in the living room.

Krista, who was enjoying a cup of tea on the sofa, looked delighted instantly. Seeing the woman coming in, she said, "Hi, Sabrina. Here you came."

"Hi, Aunt Krista. I'm here to visit you." Sabrina came in with gifts in her hands. As she spoke, she looked around the living room.

However, she didn't find the person whom she wanted to meet. She was in a daze. Putting down the gifts, she asked, "Where is Ken? Aunt Krista, didn't you say that he's back?"

Receiving the information, she put down her work immediately and rushed over. Much to her surprise, she still didn't see him.

As if her question reminded Krista of something bothering, Krista got angry. Pulling a long face, she said with dislike, "He's out in the early morning. I don't know what he was doing. I thought he came back to visit me."

Upon hearing her complaint, Sabrina had a flash in her eyes. Sitting next to Krista, she pulled Krista's arm lovingly, pretended to be curious, and asked, "If Ken didn't come back to visit you, what did he come back for? I heard that he's pretty busy with the business in the headquarters."

"Humph!" Krista snorted with a long face. "What else? Of course not for a useless person like me. He stayed home for a short time after coming back. He was afraid I would go to that woman and he got angry with me."

Sabrina stroke her back to calm her down. She looked as if she wanted to say something but stopped. Then she said gingerly, "Perhaps... Miss Lewis is in trouble nowadays. As she's his ex-wife, he wants to help her for the sake of their relationship in the past."

Krista frowned. Suddenly she looked at Sabrina and asked in confusion, "In trouble? What trouble has she made recently that needs my son to deal it with her?"

"Haven't you known it?" Sabrina looked startled. She blinked in surprise. Then she explained, "Miss Lewis' father got a stroke suddenly in the prison. It's on news now. Miss Lewis is pregnant, so she must be in difficulty now. Besides, she needs so much money for the surgery. Maybe Ken couldn't stand still and watch, so he wanted to help her."

"What did you say?" Krista's face fell. She became more excited. "He went to help her family's messy matters again, didn't he? Let alone the money, what if Ken was involved in her father's lawsuit of the corruption and accepting bribes, would it impact the reputation of Dragon Age? How could he be so stupid?"

Besides, if the public knew the marriage between the Lewis and the Shawn families in the past, it would be a big shame for the whole Shaw family.

"Aunt Krista, please calm down." Sabrina acted as if she was startled by Krista's imposing manner, her face paling. Hurriedly, she comforted Krista, "You know Ken very well, don't you? He is way too generous. Even if they have divorced, he still treasures their relationship before. If Miss Lewis asks him for help, he can't refuse."

Upon hearing that, Krista became more excited. Her eyes widened as if she was irritated deeply. She yelled, "How can she be so shameless to ask Ken for help? Doesn't she know they've divorced? If Ken has a new girlfriend now, would she still pester him and become a shameless mistress?"

"This woman is so cheeky! How come I didn't find her so cheap before?"

The more Krista spoke, the more furious she became. The expression on her livid face became more and more grisly. "No wonder her father was guilty of corruption and accepting bribes. Like father like daughter. None of that family is good." Sabrina looked at her in fear. However, inwardly, she felt extremely complacent.

She handed a cup of water to Krista. Then she said nervously, "Aunt Krista, please have some water and calm down. Please don't blame yourself or Ken. Don't you forget that there are two babies in Miss Lewis' belly?"

Krista took over the cup. The expression in her eyes changed, full of rage. As if she suddenly recalled something, she smashed the cup onto the tea-table and said in a cold tone, "Babies? That woman... Did she threaten Ken with the babies in her belly?" Suddenly she stood up, trembling with anger. "He hasn't ensured if he's the father of them, but he's already admitted happily. What a fool! Why didn't he think properly? No way! I'll call him to stop him."

As she said, she circled to look for her cell phone.

Sabrina was taken aback. Her expression changed. She stood up and tugged Krista in a hurry. "No, Aunt Krista. You can't call him now. You don't know where Ken is. Perhaps you'll get a more fierce fight with him since it can't be made clear on the phone. Do you think it's worth making Ken complain about you because of an outsider?"

Upon hearing this, Krista paused. Frowning at Sabrina, she thought for a few seconds. Then she seemed to calm down and nodded, "Yes. Exactly. You are right. I can't call him now. If that woman knows that I fight with my son, wouldn't she be quite complacent?" Sabrina smiled, breathing a sigh of relief. "Hence, we only need to talk to Ken in detail after he comes back."

"I can't sit still and do nothing." Krista still pulled a long face. Clenching her hands tightly, she looked gloomy. "I don't have to call Ken, but I must go find that woman to see what dirty trick she's playing."

After finishing her words, she yelled to a maid upstairs majestically, "Megan, bring me my coat."

She couldn't let her son be taken for a ride by a shameless woman. Otherwise, his reputation would be ruined and his company would be doomed.

Megan ran downstairs with a coat in her hands. Then she helped Krista put it on.

Seemingly Sabrina was frightened by her a lot. With a pale face, she dared not to utter a word.

After putting on her coat, Krista took over her handbag and said to Megan in a cold tone, "Call the driver and ask him to wait for me downstairs."

Megan nodded instantly. "Yes, Mrs. Shawn."

Krista walked to the door. It seemed that Sabrina suddenly came back to her senses. She rushed over to follow her in a hurry. "Aunt Krista, where are you going? Do you know where Ken is? If you quarrel with him, it would be embarrassing." Krista stroked the dark-colored coat on her with her well-cared fair fingers, her red lips curling up into a sneer, looking solemn and elegant. "I don't care where he is. I'm not going to find him. All the problems should be resolved from the causes." Sabrina was taken aback, a smartness flashing through her eyes.

Krista had already opened the door and walked out. In secret, Sabrina curled up her lips into a smile. Then she followed Krista and said, "I'm going with you. In case something happens to you, Ken will kill me for sure." Downstairs, they sat in the car and left.

In the hospital, Rachel finally got the approval of the medical bail for her father. Immediately, she transferred Chapman to the biggest hospital in town.

She followed him in the ambulance. Kenneth didn't show up, but Maurice followed them all the way.

After arranging the ward and going through the admission formalities, it was already afternoon. Rachel was too busy to even drink a sip of water.

She didn't have time to sit down and relax until she had fixed the surgery time and confirmed the risks of the surgery with the chief physician.

Theresa stayed in the ward to take care of Chapman. Rachel was reading the paperwork while sitting on the bench in the corridor. Except that her outfit was still neat, she looked exhausted. She didn't put on any makeup, so she looked pale. Maurice bought her some food and drinks, walked to her, and said respectfully, "Miss Lewis, you've been busy for the whole morning. Please have some."
