Chapter: 638
Sean gazed down at Norah, nestled in his embrace. Her long lashes cast shadows, her natural pink lips pursed like a rosebud.
The more he looked, the more content he felt.
Initially, falling for someone feels like a flutter, but as they journey through daily life together, their emotions deepen and grow stronger.
He'd always mention how she'd slip into his thoughts without him even realizing it. And it was true.
He squeezed Norah in his arms, holding her close.
He believed she deserved nothing but the best.
Norah slept for a long time. As she blinked awake, darkness surrounded her. A soft glow from a little night light in the corner revealed she was in the Living room.
Did she fall asleep? In the living room? Where were Sean and Susanna?
Had they left? Norah felt puzzled.
She tucked her hands beneath her, feeling the strain in her muscles as she glanced downward.
Then, she caught Sean's drowsy eyes.
"What's the time?" Sean asked.
Cuddled up with Norah in his arms, he enjoyed the warmth until he also drifted off into sleep without realizing it.
Norah sat up, grabbed the phone, and unlocked the screen.
“It's one in the morning.”
She massaged her temples. It was clear she hadn't slept well, probably from lying on Sean's chest all the while.
“Where's Susanna? Why did I fall asleep?"
She recalled pondering Susanna's sickness and the Wilson family affairs. As she dwelled on them, she slowly drifted off into unconsciousness.
She was startled. Falling asleep in front of Sean was unexpected.
It looked like she had let her guard down around him and started revealing her softer side.
“Susanna's upstairs resting. You fell asleep the moment you laid on me."
Sean massaged his tingly arm and suggested, “It's bedtime. Get some rest. Don't forget to wash off your makeup before you sleep."
Although her makeup was stunning, leaving it on overnight wasn't good for her skin.
Sean now had a small understanding of makeup.
