Chapter: 654
"Sure, I'm still looking forward to the day you having a baby,"
Trudy stated it resolutely.
She was determined to see Norah's child. To her, Norah was a gift from God to compensate for her past sorrows.
Gil nodded and added, “Yes. Now that you have a boyfriend, you should move quickly. It's best to have a child right after getting married."
In reality, Norah wasn't keen on marrying or having children just yet.
Nevertheless, they genuinely wished her happiness, so she simply listened without responding.
Before Norah left, she secretly placed five grand on the fruit tray in the living room.
She had withdrawn the money from an ATM while picking up fruits on her way here.
Gil and Trudy had always been kind to her without expecting anything in return. Nevertheless, she felt the need to show her gratitude in such a way.
After Norah left, Trudy discovered the money while tidying up. She called out, "Gil, come here quickly."
Seeing the money on the table, Gil's eyes welled up with tears.
"It must be Norah's. She's always so considerate."
Norah was always meticulous during her visits, careful not to upset them. In truth, they needed nothing more than to know she was well, which brought them immense joy.
“I keep telling Norah not to worry about formalities with us, yet she leaves money secretly. Next time, I will keep an eye on her to see if she tries it again," Trudy remarked.
If Norah were to hear this, she would surely respond with a yes.
The lights were on as it entered the vibrant night.
Norah took a taxi back home. When she stepped out, she scanned around the entrance attentively.
As expected, she saw a man in a black suit merging into the darkness.
"Sean, why are you just standing there all quiet like that? I almost didn't notice someone was here."
She entered the passcode and opened the door, only to find the lights on and both Alice and Susanna in the living room.
“Why are you waiting outside? There are so many mosquitoes in summer.
Haven't you been bitten?"
She turned, took Sean's hand, and examined it closely under the room's light. Sean's hand appeared lean and delicate.
“I see no mosquito bites. Maybe your blood just isn't tasty enough."
