Chapter: 593

Laughing, Norah offered, “Just let me know what you're craving ahead of time, and I'll get everything ready.”

Susanna's eyes sparkled with excitement. "You got it! Norah, you mentioned Alice is exploring Glophia by herself, right? Since I'm free, I thought I could join her for the day! How does that sound?"

Alice, smiling warmly, agreed, “With Susanna by my side, absolutely."

Having spent some time with Susanna, Alice had grown fond of the lively and innocent Susanna, hoping Susanna would always retain her joy and spontaneity.

"Norah, I'll take Alice for a walk so you and Sean can have some time to yourselves," Susanna proposed.

Phillip escorted the pair as they departed from Sean's villa, Leaving Sean and Norah in the quiet spaciousness.

Sean had slipped into more comfortable attire, which softened his appearance significantly. His features were sharply defined, and his gaze at Norah was tender.

"My love," he greeted, taking Norah's hand to lead her toward the couch. "Back when I was on my own, busy times flew by without a second thought."

Settling onto the sofa and drawing her close, he continued, "But ever since you've been part of my life, you're all I think about.

Wondering what you're doing, if you've run into any problems, or if you're missing me as I miss you."

Sean rested his head on Norah's shoulder, finding comfort in their closeness.

Sean had also sipped some cedar wine, and a hint of alcohol lingered on his breath, mildly intoxicating.

“Honey, did you miss me?" Sean tilted his head, whispering by her ear with a deep, husky voice, “I missed you so much today."

One of his hands rested on her shoulder while the other playfully rested on her waist, gently stroking.

A ticklish sensation at her waist made Norah instinctively draw back.

Leaning into his arms, she casually said, "Today was so hectic. I didn't even glance at my phone."

Pausing for a moment, she added, “But during a quiet moment, you crossed my mind."

During surgery, her focus was solely on the task at hand, leaving no room for distractions. However, it was a comfort that she could still think of Sean now and then.

“Honey, I'm glad you thought of me." His lips grazed her earlobe, gently licking it. "We're both busy, barely getting any alone time.”

Norah shifted, resting her hands on his chest, gazing at him with teary eyes. "I asked you to come to the ward with me, but you didn't."

There was a hint of complaint in her voice, and Sean's heart melted.

Norah was acting like a spoiled child. The sensation of her playful affection was delightful, urging him to want to give her everything.

“I did plan to come, but I thought you guys might not enjoy it Sean was aware of his commanding presence, and not quite fitting in with her friends, so he decided not to risk making things awkward.

He didn't want that. If his presence caused a rift between Norah and her friends, it would be his fault.
