Chapter 3026: Chapter 3026

“He just wants to see Matthew,” Melissa said with a smile on his behalf.

With that, she opened the door and left.

After Melissa had gone, Julie began to roll out the dough.

“Mom, let me help you with it,” Shawn offered after standing aside and watching her for several minutes.

But Julie gave him a hard knock on the back of his hand with the rolling pin.

“Melissa thinks you are a good person, but I know you too well,” she said to him in a tone filled with

resentment.

“You’re just like your father: a gambler.

He ended up in jail and made me homeless.

But you are even worse than him.

Your wife and child left you.

Why are you here? You came to ask Melissa for help? Well, for your information, she has to pay a hefty house mortgage every month.

She doesn’t have any money to lend you.

If you dare try to ask her for money, I’ll kill you so that you’ll no Longer be a nuisance to others.

”

Shawn was stunned by his mother’s harsh words.

But after a while, he broke into a smile and said, “Mom, I didn’t come to ask her for money.

She’s like my sister and I’ll never dare to hurt her with you around.

Besides, I love her son so much.

Uh… can I go give him a ki*s?”

But Julie refused.

“You can see him when he wakes up.

You can’t just enter Melissa’s bedroom.

It’s not appropriate.

”

“Okay,” Shawn said obediently, “I’ll follow your instructions to the latter.

”

His pledge of obedience finally brought a trace of a smile on Julie’s face.

She wiped her hands on her apron and then said to him, “Let me go help Matthew put on his clothes.

There’s milk and eggs in the kitchen.

Don’t eat too much.

Remember that Matthew is still a growing child and he needs all the nutrition he can get.

”

Shawn nodded with a smile and left for the kitchen.

Ten minutes later, Matthew had woken up and Shawn took him in his arms.

He was usually very nice to the boy.

Matthew immediately recognized Shawn even though he hadn’t seen him in a long time.

Wrapping his arms around Shawn’s neck, he called his name affectionately, “Uncle Shawn!”

Shawn gave him a ki*s on his nose and promised, “I’ll take you out for some fun later.

”

But Julie cut in immediately, “Don’t! The weather is very cold.

”

After a brief moment of silence, she added, “Since Matthew’s father usually comes over now, don’t come here like this again.

It won’t be good if he sees you.

Though you see Melissa as your younger sister, you two are not really related.

That man’s family is way above her league to begin with, and Melissa’s just… Anyway, don’t try to do anything that would bring her unnecessary trouble, otherwise I’ll break your legs.

”

Shawn smiled when he heard this.

When he was about to leave, Julie felt worried about him.

She took some money from her purse and gave it to him.

“Take it.

This is my own money.

You’re not getting any younger.

Start a proper business.

It’s very important for you to turn on a new leaf as soon as possible so you can get Janet and your child back.

”

Shawn took the money from her and stared at it for what seemed Like forever.

Eventually, Melissa arrived at the company.

At the gate, she saw her white BMW.

As soon as he saw her coming over, the driver came out to give her the car keys.

“Mr.

Fowler told me to give you this,” he said.

Melissa took the keys and thanked him.

But she didn’t call Marcus this time.

After all, he was the one who had damaged the tire, so it was only reasonable for him to have the car fixed and brought over to her.
