CHAPTER 81: CHAPTER 81: BE MY WOMAN

This kind of emotion probably shows that she’s a sentimental little woman!

Heh heh!

After Jason Hawthorne left, she curled her lips in a bitter smile. Well, at least now things between her and The Demon King were completely clear, and he surely wouldn’t bother her again.

After all, they weren’t the same kind of people.

As soon as she went downstairs, she heard a car coming back outside. Laura Quincy breathed a sigh of relief, knowing it was Little Mars, she finally didn’t have to be alone with The Demon King anymore.

Otherwise, it would have been really awkward.

Justin Hawthorne entered and saw Laura Quincy standing in the living room, happily rushing over to her, "Sister! Twinkle missed you so much!"

Laura Quincy happily hugged him back, "Sister did too!"

Justin Hawthorne immediately kissed her on the cheek with a big smile, "Hehe! Sister, have you been waiting for a long time? Where’s Daddy? Hasn’t he come home yet? Why isn’t he chatting with you?"

Laura Quincy didn’t know what to say out of embarrassment, just as a servant interjected, "Sir is in the second-floor study."

Justin Hawthorne pouted, "Annoying! He’s busy with work even when he comes back! Doesn’t even know to help me take care of Sister, Daddy is so unromantic!"

Laura Quincy suddenly realized a very serious problem. Could it be that Little Mars was secretly trying to matchmake her with his daddy?

No way!

She was suddenly startled by her own thought and quickly said, "Little Mars, be good, men prioritize their careers. You’ll understand when you grow up."

Justin Hawthorne, somewhat understanding and somewhat not, puckered his lips, "Alright! But... if I were Daddy, I would definitely make time to spend with the person I like or family."

Laura Quincy had her head full of black lines. How old was Little Mars? Yet he could say something so sensible, like a little grown-up...

"Time is limited! Let’s start the lesson!"

"Mm-hmm!"

Although very unhappy that Daddy didn’t come down to accompany Sister, Justin Hawthorne still didn’t go to the study to find Daddy, as he understood that Daddy had it rough. Uncle and Second Uncle’s families both didn’t like Daddy and him...

At a young age, he could still sense the adult’s scheming against each other.

After finishing the lesson, it was almost half past nine. Just when Laura Quincy was about to drive herself back, Justin Hawthorne pulled her back, "Sister, it’s not safe to drive alone at night, I’ll have Daddy take you home."

Laura Quincy hurriedly waved her hands, "No need, Sister can handle it alone."

Justin Hawthorne held on to her, "No way! I’m worried!"

His little serious expression was indescribably cute.

Laura Quincy really couldn’t bear to refuse, but she also didn’t want The Demon King to send her off. The conversation in the third-floor study just now had already been awkward enough, she didn’t want it to continue...

She could only hope in her heart that The Demon King wouldn’t come out.

Yet, things didn’t go as planned—

Jason Hawthorne came out of the study...

Seeing him, Justin Hawthorne happily rushed over, "Daddy, you have to take Sister home, it’s too unsafe for girls to drive at night!"

Laura Quincy was about to say "really, no need," but then The Demon King agreed quickly, "Okay."

Laura Quincy almost stumbled to the ground, was The Demon King crazy? They had just had a falling out, why would he still want to send her back?!

Hearing Daddy say okay, Justin Hawthorne was ecstatic, "Daddy, then I’ll leave Sister to you! You must get her home safely!"

Jason Hawthorne patted his son’s head, "Mm, when Daddy gets back, I want to see you already asleep."

Justin Hawthorne smiled with crescent eyes, "Mm-hmm!"

Laura Quincy watched the interaction between the father and son, unable to describe how she felt inside...

On the way back, Laura Quincy couldn’t help but say, "Actually, you don’t have to send me home."

Jason Hawthorne’s voice was cool, "It’s my son’s wish."

Laura Quincy: "Uh..."

So that’s how it was, otherwise, he certainly wouldn’t send her, right!

Thinking of this, she stopped speaking, turning to watch the dazzling lights outside the window...

The journey was silent.

Jason Hawthorne was still pondering over what Laura Quincy had said—that she wanted a long-lasting, genuine love, something President Hawthorne couldn’t give her.

Love?

What exactly was long-lasting, genuine love?

Wasn’t it fine just being his woman?

The days passed quietly over a week, and Laura Quincy’s life seemed to return to peace. Even at the company, she hadn’t seen Jason Hawthorne again.

From the initial disappointment, now she slowly adjusted to calm...

One night, Senior Chadwick from group three invited everyone to dinner for his birthday. During the meal, she had a couple glasses of beer, and feeling unwell, she excused herself early.

As she reached the door, she saw a familiar black Spyker. She recognized the car as The Demon King’s ride.

Thinking she didn’t want any more entanglements with him, she prepared to detour...

However, after just a few steps, someone grabbed her...

"You’ve been drinking?"

Jason Hawthorne’s brow furrowed, damnit woman! It had only been a few days, and she was out drinking again!

Laura Quincy pursed her lips, "It was Senior Chadwick’s birthday, just had a couple."

Jason Hawthorne curled his lips coldly, "Just a couple? Seems like you can handle your drink."

Laura Quincy turned her face away, not wanting to engage, vaguely feeling her stomach being uncomfortable. She thought it was from the beer chilling her stomach earlier, not paying much attention, thinking she’d just drink some warm water once home.

"I’m heading off now."

Laura Quincy said, preparing to leave. Simultaneously, the discomfort in her stomach was growing stronger, and she couldn’t help pressing her stomach, feeling increasingly awful and having a bad feeling—could it be her period coming?

```

She remembered last month it was the 5th! Why did it come so many days early!

Oh heavens! Heaven please let this be a figment of my imagination, every time my period comes it feels as if I’ve been through life and death, vomiting and diarrhea, body cold sweating, stomach and right leg in such pain that it’s like dying...

So, please don’t choose this time to visit.

She prayed silently in her heart, but the feeling in her lower abdomen was too similar...

Jason Hawthorne saw her looking unwell, "I’ll take you."

Laura Quincy originally wanted to refuse, but the discomfort from her stomach grew stronger, if she guessed right, she wouldn’t be able to bear it halfway through...

"I can take a taxi home myself."

"I’ll take you!"

Jason Hawthorne’s attitude was very resolute, then forcibly stuffed Laura Quincy into his car.

Laura Quincy was too weak to resist and could only get into his car.

Along the way, Laura Quincy sat like on pins and needles, feeling extremely uncomfortable, could it be that the beer tonight upset her stomach?

After arriving at the apartment complex, she didn’t get out immediately. Jason Hawthorne walked over to open the car door for her, "What’s wrong?"

Laura Quincy still clutched her belly without moving.

Jason Hawthorne saw something was off with her, "What exactly is wrong?"

Laura Quincy clenched her fists tightly, Emma! It seems her relative really came, what to do? Would her pants have stained already, not to mention the car seat...

She really wanted to find a hole to bury herself...

"I..."

Jason Hawthorne stared coldly at her for a few seconds, not knowing what drama she was playing...

This sudden whim to send her home was absolutely ridiculous! Then without further thought, he reached directly to pull her out of the car.

This sudden action scared Laura Quincy so much she fell out without any defense, fortunately Jason Hawthorne was blocking in front, otherwise she would’ve fallen straight to the ground.

"Bastard! What are you doing!"

She cursed and cautiously glanced at the seat she sat on, but couldn’t tell in the dim light whether there were any stains.

So embarrassing!

"You sitting there and not getting out clearly want me to help, isn’t it?"

Jason Hawthorne coldly curved his lips, the raised corners without any hint of a smile.

Laura Quincy angrily wanted to throw off his hand but was gripped tighter, this fierce struggle made her stomach hurt even more, without a pad she felt so unsafe between her legs, even walking was difficult, yet the certain someone remained so despicable...

"Let me go!"

Laura Quincy said displeased.

Maybe it was her face looking too unwell, Jason Hawthorne then released her arm, Laura Quincy almost fell to the ground when she unstably stood, the pain made her gasp for breath, her stomach pains increasingly severe.

Jason Hawthorne coldly glanced at her, "Can’t handle alcohol yet insisted on drinking, now you know it’s uncomfortable?"

Laura Quincy said irritably, "It’s got nothing to do with this."

"Really?"

Jason Hawthorne squinted evilly, damn little woman! Ever since tasting her before, he couldn’t stop...

Tonight, he particularly wanted...

Every time he got closer, Laura Quincy’s breath would become tense, the spasms in her lower abdomen causing sweat drops to gather on her forehead, so uncomfortable!

Jason Hawthorne’s face was already close to hers, just about to kiss down when he heard her weakly murmur, "So painful..."

He couldn’t help but furrow his brow, then realized her face was as pale as snow, reached to touch her forehead, it was icy cold.

"Where does it hurt?"

"Stomach."

"Stomach?"

Jason Hawthorne found it hard to understand why her stomach suddenly hurt, and why she was sweating so much cold sweat...

Laura Quincy felt more liquid flowing out from below, couldn’t help but want to hurry home, but after walking a few steps she remembered her own pads were used up because Nina had stayed...

Truly when it rains, it pours!

Jason Hawthorne pulled her, "Feeling unwell, then go to the hospital."

Laura Quincy looked pale, "I’m fine, I’m going to the supermarket outside now."

As she spoke, she dragged herself outside.

Jason Hawthorne pulled her, "Why go to the supermarket like this? What do you want to buy, I’ll help you!"

Laura Quincy blushing, hesitated for ages, "Forget it, I’ll still go myself..."

Jason Hawthorne got annoyed, "Why are you so troublesome, woman!"

Laura Quincy embarrassed, wished she could dig a hole to hide in, voice barely above a whisper, "I want to buy...sanitary pads."

Jason Hawthorne’s brain froze for a few seconds...

Sanitary pads? The thing women use during that time?

His face suddenly darkened, "You don’t have any at home?"

Laura Quincy shook her head, "None left."

Three seconds later, Jason Hawthorne turned and left.

Walked towards the direction of the supermarket, walking a few steps then worriedly told Laura Quincy to wait in the car first...

Sitting in the car, Laura Quincy couldn’t calm her thoughts...
