Chapter 417
After Shawn left, he left his assistant to take care of her.
She stayed in the hospital for almost half a month after her C-section, and Shawn never visited her once.
At that time, she called him a few times, but Shawn always said that he was busy with work and told her to take care of herself and that he would come and see her when he was free.
She believed him at the time. After she discharged from the hospital, Shawn had someone pick her up and take her back to the apartment, hiring a nanny to take care of her.
Shawn finally came to see her when she finished her month-long rest, and her body had mostly recovered.
But his purpose for coming was to sleep with her.
Her body was already weak, and as a result, she ended up back in the hospital.
The doctor criticized them for being too impulsive, as having intercourse before her body had fully recovered and not taking any precautions could be very dangerous if she were to become pregnant again.
Shawn was very displeased with this and asked the doctor, “So when can she get pregnant again?”
The doctor said it would be best for both the mother and child if she were to wait at least two years before trying to conceive again.
Upon hearing this, Shawn’s face darkened, and he didn’t speak for a long time.
At that time, she didn’t realize that it was because she had given birth to a daughter that Shawn was acting this way.
It wasn’t until he became more and more indifferent toward her that she realized something was wrong.
Helen was a very smart woman. She quickly found out from those around Shawn that he and Caitlyn often argued. Apart from Caitlyn’s strong personality, the other reason was the issue with their children.
Shawn desperately wanted a son, but Caitlyn was very weak after giving birth, and she didn’t want to have a second child.
Shawn saw potential in her, not because she was so outstanding, but rather to have her bear his children.
This inexperienced, somewhat attractive, and unconnected female college student seemed like the perfect candidate.
When she found out the truth, she felt like the sky was falling.
She was not even 20 years old, and had not yet finished her studies when she had a child for Shawn. If Shawn were to abandon her, she wouldn’t be able to raise the child on her own.
Shawn had pushed her onto this path with no way back.
After a brief period of pain, Helen quickly pulled herself together.
She still had to live and raise her daughter. Even if Shawn was a scumbag, she could tolerate anything as long as it met her needs.
She began to cater to Shawn, being obedient and submissive to him.
Shawn could exert the masculinity that he couldn’t with Caitlyn onto her, and so he began taking her more seriously, but he never mentioned divorce.
It wasn’t until she became pregnant again.
