Chapter: 1348

With this thought in mind, he sat down beside her on the bed and gently pulled her into his arms. "Norah, just know that I've got your back, no matter what."

Norah was enveloped in his scent, a blend of sandalwood and Silver Galaxy cologne. It was intoxicating and comforting all at once. She inhaled deeply, savoring the familiar aroma, and then asked softly, "Did you and Susanna received the perfumes I sent?"

"Yes," Sean briefly answered. He didn't mention that during her disappearance, it was the scent of her perfume that had helped him through the toughest times.

Norah quietly wrapped her arms tighter around his waist. "Thanks, Sean. I remember all the kindness you've shown me."

“No more talk of breaking up, okay?" He gently patted her back, his hand warm and reassuring. "I hate those words."

"What, it's okay for you to say it but not me?" she teased, a faint smile on her lips.

“Honey, you'll never hear me say we should break up. I want to be with you forever."

Though she was a bit of a mystery, it did nothing to sway his feelings.

Without another word, they held hands, a testament to the deep and sincere love they shared.

“I hope you get better soon," he whispered.

Norah nodded, keeping Sean's words in her heart. She thought briefly of the future but decided to set those thoughts aside, choosing instead to live in the moment.

Elsa had spent some time in Silverdale. But despite her efforts and the help her father provided, none of their plans had been successful.

"Dad, I can't take it anymore. Norah's bodyguards are too good, and she and Sean are getting closer by the day. There is nothing I can do to her. I'm going back to Glophia!" Elsa tugged at her hair in frustration. Her anxiety grew as she saw Norah's condition steadily improving.

The constant stress had worn her down, leaving her visibly thinner after days of restless nights and hardly eating.

Iker's voice was icy as he said, "Even if you were to return to Glophia now, you would soon be ousted from the Wilson family if Norah is still alive. Elsa, ensure you're present to witness Norah's downfall. I've arranged something, and you should visit the hospital tomorrow to see the outcome."

Elsa was surprised. Her father's certainty hinted at a sinister plot against Norah.

"I only have to stay a few more days. I can wait a bit longer," she thought.

When asked about any peculiar behavior from Gilda and Chayce, Elsa quickly replied, “I've been monitoring them. Gilda seems normal, but Chayce did something strange. He went to Celestia, returned with several people, and took them straight to Mr. Boyd's villa."

“Norah and Mr. Boyd are close," she continued. “She visited him shortly after she woke up, and Chayce often visits his villa as well.”

“Celestia? Who were these people?" Iker pressed, puzzled.

"It's possible Mr. Boyd was searching for someone. After visiting Norah at the hospital, they both went directly to Mr. Boyd's villa and haven't been seen since," Elsa explained.

Upon hearing his daughter's update, Iker momentarily subdued the anxiety swirling within him.

Suddenly, the images of Calvin and Bernice came to mind, prompting him to abruptly end the call, his features shadowed by a grim expression.

He muttered bitterly, “Calvin, you inherited the entire wealth of the Wilson family, whereas I was supposed to receive a share! Just you wait; your daughter will soon find herself in hell alongside you."
