Chapter: 656

After a moment of silence, Sean was the first to break the silence.

Norah had been thinking over it for quite some time, not expecting this to be the issue.

She reacted with a small smile.

"Gil Davies is someone I respect greatly. I worried you might feel out of place there," she explained, offering a reassuring smile.

It had never crossed her mind that this could be the reason behind Sean's mood.

“I always thought you weren't into these kinds of gatherings."

Sean clearly preferred a more comfortable lifestyle, whereas Gil's place was in an older apartment complex.

Ever since Norah met Sean, he carried himself like a superior being.

He had high standards of Living.

No matter his words or actions, a hint of arrogance lingered in his heart.

She assumed that Sean was oblivious and indifferent to the struggles and feelings of those less fortunate.

Thus, she hadn't thought to invite him along.

"No, Norah. You didn't ask me. How can you be sure I wouldn't want to go?"

Placing his hand on her shoulder and said earnestly, “We haven't been together very long and still have much to learn about each other.

But I hope we can communicate more openly and share everything."

Honesty and trust were crucial for maintaining a healthy relationship.

He wished their love wouldn't be filled with doubt alone.

"For instance, tonight you assumed I wouldn't want to accompany you to Gil's home, but actually, I was hoping you would invite me."

Being included in each other's Lives was an important part of growing closer.

Norah felt a bit embarrassed and glanced away, avoiding eye contact.

“I'm sorry.”

She lifted her head and wrapped her arms around his neck, acting playfully.

“I didn't think much back then. It just crossed my mind that maybe you weren't interested, so I didn't ask. But next time, I'll make sure to check with you, alright?"

She pouted and blinked those big eyes, acting like a proud cat seeking forgiveness, rubbing against him after she messed up.
