Chapter: 1508
She felt especially grateful to her cousin. Knowing that Norah would be leaving in a few months, she decided to spend as much time with her as possible.
Bainbridge was home due to lab research, while Florence and Huntley were deeply thankful for Norah's support of the Frazier family.
Bernice called out excitedly, “Oh, Sean, you are here! Come, have a seat!"
Sean felt only a bit nervous. He had already met Norah's parents, so why be anxious about meeting her relatives?
Holding Norah's hand, he gave her a confident look. He was accomplished, and he knew they'd win everyone's approval and blessings.
Norah shot him a playful glare, wondering what he was so smug about.
Clearing her throat, she said, “Ahem, let me introduce him to everyone. This is my boyfriend, Sean Scott. He's in Surella for work and came to visit me."
Florence nodded. The man before her was tall, handsome, and carried himself with an air of confidence. He was a perfect match for Norah.
"I thought Norah didn't have a boyfriend yet. I was even considering introducing someone to her. Hey, Norah, your uncle knows plenty of great men. If your boyfriend ever treats you poorly, not only will the Fraziers take issue, but there'll be a line of worthy suitors waiting for you." Florence chuckled.
Norah found it amusing that Florence and Huntley had already made a backup plan for her.
Sean replied seriously, “Rest assured, I'll treat Norah well."
At his words, Norah had a sheepish look on her face.
Sean held Norah's hand tightly, his expression serious. "Norah, I've decided to spend my life with you. I won't fall for anyone else."
Florence smiled warmly. "Norah is our treasure. We won't let anyone mistreat her."
Roseanne and Bainbridge agreed enthusiastically, “We'll be watching over you closely. If you make our cousin sad, you'll have to answer to us."
Huntley slowly flashed a meaningful smile. "Sean, I think it's time we had a talk about Norah."
For some reason, Norah thought her uncle might bring up the past glory of the Frazier family, which made her remember something.
Norah asked, "Sean, did you return Kennedy's gun for me? I totally forgot about it after I left with Joanna."
That night, they had visited the lab and she hadn't returned the gun she borrowed.
“You unmindful girl, you would've taken ages to remember and return it on your own," Sean teased.
The day after the banquet, Kennedy had someone return Norah's clothes and jewelry, which she had left at the shooting club, to Sean. That was when he realized Norah had borrowed the gun from the club.
