Chapter 367 Stirring up Trouble
"Honey." Zev sent a pouty emoji, looking a bit down.
Kelly smiled lightly but didn''t respond to him.
Shawn quickly came out, looking like there wasn''t much to worry about.
"How''s it going?" Kelly asked.
Shawn sighed. "The doctor wants me toe back tomorrow morning for a fasting blood test. They also scheduled me for a colonoscopy, and I''m kind of freaking out."
Kelly smiled reassuringly. "Don''t worry. Medical procedures havee a long way. If they do the colonoscopy under full anesthesia, you won''t feel a thing. Just rest well afterward, and everything will be fine."
Shawn looked a bit off, hesitating for a long time before speaking. "Kelly, I don''t have many friends in Seaville, and my family... Well, it''s just my dad. You know my situation. I''m a bastard child, and he doesn''t care much about me. The doctor said I needed a family member to apany me for the procedure. Could youe with me?"
Kelly inwardly rolled her eyes. Didn''t you have an assistant?
But Kelly smiled and nodded. "All right, once you''ve scheduled everything, just let me know in advance. I''ll make sure I''m free."
Shawn looked much lighter, and it was obvious he felt a lot better. He nodded, a bright smile spreading across his face. "Thank you."
Kelly gave a light smile but didn''t say anything.
Shawn seemed to perk up, bing more cheerful as they talked andughed. He even waited for Kelly in the parking lot and insisted on driving her to Wagner Residence for dinner.
Shawn''s goal was clear-he wanted to win Kelly over. If that wasn''t possible, he''d at least try to break up Kelly and Zev. He was the type of person who could fake deep emotions very convincingly.
"Here you go." As Kelly walked out of the office building, Shawn handed her a lollipop. It was surprising-a CEO like him putting effort into creating a little romantic gesture for a girl.
Kelly paused for a moment before epting the lollipop with a smile. "Thanks. I didn''t expect you''d like this. I thought you''d think snack was unsanitary."
If Kelly were younger, she might have thought Shawn was a decent guy, but she wasn''t a na?ve 18-year-old anymore. No matter how well he disguised himself, she saw through the cracks.
"My childhood wasn''t that great." Shawn smiled bitterly. "My mom was a very dominant woman. She always had to be the best at everything, using my sess to grab my dad''s attention ...
When Shawn was young, he was just a pawn in Serena''s quest for power. Serena wanted to move up, but Patrick wasn''t going to divorce/her, so she had to have children first.
As a socialite in Hallowick, Serena constantlypared herself to Hannah, and to satisfy her, Shawn had to outshine Oscar in every way.

"I didn''t have a childhood, so I envy others who got to enjoy simple things like lollipops at that age. Shawnughed lightly.
He had no childhood. Under Serena''s strict guidance, all he could do was study hard, striving to be the best in every aspect of life.
"Sorry," Kelly said apologetically.
"It''s fine," Shawn replied with a smile. "I''m grown now, I can make my own decisions, so if I want something, I just get it." He smiled again before opening the passenger door for Kelly.
Just as Kelly was about to get in the car, she heard someone call Shawn''s name.
Turning around, she saw rissa.
rissa had suddenly appeared at the hospital, likely because of Kelly.
"Fancy seeing you here," Shawn said with a calm smile.
While rissa''s expression darkened, Shawn seemedpletely at ease, acting like he and rissa were just colleagues.
"I''m here to see Kelly," rissa said darkly, her gaze fixed on Kelly. "We need to talk."
"Sorry, I don''t have time," Kelly rejected immediately.
"Kelly! Shane is my son. Who do you think you are, holding his shares for him?" rissa was fuming. After finding out that Kelly held the shares for both Shane and Jasper, Shawn started to get close to Kelly.
rissa couldn''t allow herself to fail, but in front of Shawn, she felt like aplete loser.
She refused to let Kelly win again.
"Ha, you''re the one who decided you didn''t want her, and now you''re dealing with the consequences." Kelly frowned at rissa. "If you''re going crazy, go see a specialist; don''t take it out on me."
rissa shot Kelly an angry look. "I''ve already hired awyer to file awsuit. You won''t get away with this."
"I''ll be waiting," Kelly said as she got into the car and nced at Shawn. "Let''s go.
Be careful; don''t get bitten by a rabid dog. Getting rabies would be terrible."
"Kelly, who are you insulting?" rissa snapped, pping the car door. Shawn just smiled, then backed the car out.
"This is already being lenient with you," Kelly said, lowering the window to look at rissa. "I''ll be waiting for yourwyer''s letter."
rissa angrily took a few steps forward, clenching her fists.
Shawn drove off, smiling as he spoke. "Do you hate her?"
"Not really," Kelly shook her head.
Shawn looked puzzled. "What?"

You don''t hate her?
*** in Pearls
“Because I don''t even consider her human," Kelly said sarcastically, then looked
at Shawn. “Birds of a feather flock together. You should stay away from her.”
Shawn awkwardly scratched his nose. "All right..."
Patrick had been waiting outside the house for a while. Zev had just arrived when Shawn showed up.
Shawn had already seen Zev, but he still deliberately walked over to open the passenger door and helped Kelly out of the car.
"Stay away." Zev stepped forward and pulled Kelly into his arms, then red at Shawn. "I think I warned you not to get near my Honey."
Shawn smiled calmly, not intimidated in the least. "Zev, I''ve already told you-we''re going topete fairly."
"What kind of messed-up morals raised someone like you? This is my Honey. Are you out of your mind?" Zev was furious now. He felt that there was no point in reasoning with someone like Shawn. Since Shawn was so crazy, Zev was tempted to just act.
"What are you going to do?" Gary, who had just arrived, quickly stepped forward with Patrick to separate them.
"Typical of someone born from an affair-no bottom line, no morals." Hannah and Melody walked out the door, looking at Shawn with disdain.
It seemed like Shawn was deliberately stirring up trouble.
What was he trying to do?
