Chapter: 525
"Good morning, Miss Wilson." At the entrance, Kelvin was still on duty. He offered Norah a respectful greeting as soon as he saw her.
Norah acknowledged him with a simple nod, her face showing Little emotion.
Kelvin had spent the previous night reflecting on Norah's advice, realizing she was suggesting he take better care of himself. His zeal in serving Sean had led him to overextend. He understood now that with the number of people under his command, he didn't need to handle every small detail himself.
This insight changed how Kelvin saw Norah. Her advice, though to him, a bodyguard, had made a mark on him. Considering Sean's girlfriend showed such concern for the subordinates was truly commendable!
Watching Norah's radiant smile as she seated herself beside Sean, Kelvin couldn't help but think she truly was the one Sean adored.
“Honey, you were gone when I woke up. Where did you go?" Sean asked.
“I went out to buy some herbs in person." Norah set her backpack down on the couch and moved closer to Sean for a hug. His arms wrapped around her in a wide embrace, offering her a comforting sense of security and making it hard for her to let go.
Growing up, Norah hadn't experienced much in the way of deep emotional connections. Now, faced with the sweetness of love, she found herself holding back and yet, inevitably, giving in. It was a paradox. With Sean, they were the picture of intimacy, yet in the quiet of the night, she'd find herself pondering the day's events with clear eyes. Both clear-minded and overwhelmed by her feelings.
"You should have asked Phillip to handle that. Did you check the herbs you got yesterday?" Sean's hand was comforting on her back, her body melding into his, her reliance on his touch visibly delighting him.
“I've looked them over. Everything's fine. I'm taking these to the lab today." Norah straightened up, a small smile playing on her Lips.
“Alice is doing much better. I'm thinking of going back in a few days."
She had originally planned to take only a week off from the hospital, but that was extended to half a month. Thankfully, Jamison, appreciating her work, quickly approved her extended leave.
Sean's reaction was one of calm anticipation, his smile spreading.
“The timing couldn't be better. I've had Phillip arrange for a flight route. We'll use the private jet to return."
Sean had thought ahead, knowing Norah would have numerous items to bring back, which would make traveling through a regular airport a hassle.
Norah found herself puzzled. A private jet? This concept was a bit foreign to her, not something she encountered often.
Despite her wealth, the idea of owning a private jet had never crossed her mind. Yet, she was more than qualified to fly one, thanks to her training in the organization. She could handle cars, planes, and even tanks, a versatile skill set indeed!
Traveling back in a private jet meant they could take a lot more with them.
"Darling, there are a few things I'd like to take back with me. Is that okay?" Norah's eyes sparkled with excitement as she listed her items. "Like some handguns and the medicine I've prepared. I'd also like to bring Alice along..."
Realizing how her words might sound, Norah quickly added, “Alice is my friend. She's interested in staying in Cesland with me for a bit."
Sean's expression flickered with amusement. “I have no issue with Alice coming back with us. But does she have her passport and visa ready? She needs to enter the country legally."
Norah signaled everything was under control with a hand gesture. “No worries. I'll sort it out for Alice."
A moment of hesitation then crossed her face. "I haven't actually mentioned this to Alice yet..."
Sean caressed her hair gently. "We should get Alice's take on it.
