Chapter: 677

Norah leaned in and lightly kissed Sean on the corner of his mouth.

“Message me if you miss me," she whispered.

Her soft, seductive voice whispered in his ear after the kiss.

Her voice had a captivating quality, drawing people in like honey.

Sean's expression shifted, his eyes growing more intense as he swallowed.

He firmly grasped Norah's arm and pulled her back toward him. Norah, who was about to leave, abruptly turned back, falling into his comforting embrace.

"Darling..."

Surprised, Norah exclaimed as she buried herself in his broad chest.

The intoxicating scent of ebony agarwood, mixed with a hint of smoke, enveloped her.

“Stay with me a Little longer."

He held her tightly, reluctant to release her.

If only they could be together indefinitely; seeing Norah after his hectic day relieved him of all his exhaustion.

Regrettably, their time together after work was always short-lived before Norah had to depart.

Phillip discreetly turned off the car engine and stepped out for a smoke, giving the couple some privacy.

Of course Norah appreciated a life of comfort. She could have indulged in a luxurious lifestyle, yet her sense of duty pushed her to continue moving forward.

Her mind wandered, imagining a carefree life akin to Joanna's, indulged by her parents and brother, with the freedom to pursue her desires.

However, Norah knew there was no one behind her.

Clutching Sean's back tightly, she realized even Sean didn't fulfill that role.

Throughout their relationship, she sought comfort in his presence.

Nevertheless, she knew all relationships would come to an end eventually.

She stayed quiet, cherishing the tranquility of the moment.

"Just embrace me. Why are you moving your hand?"

Her voice, sharp and tense, emanated from within Sean's embrace. She forcefully pressed down on his hand at her waist, her tone carrying a hint of threat.

"I should leave."
