Chapter: 694
It seemed he had misinterpreted.
“It was my mistake. I apologize."
Her slender finger delicately brushed against his lips. "No more apologies; what's significant is to learn from this episode."
She gazed into his deep eyes with earnestness. "So we are good."
Sean harbored myriad thoughts, yet he settled on a solitary yes.
As time progressed, their true selves emerged through their daily exchanges, each disagreement a milestone in their shared comprehension.
“Let us cease dwelling on this issue and move forward, agreed?"
Norah refrained from revisiting the topic repeatedly, retracting her hand from his grasp to delicately trace his Adam's apple with her finger, her gaze alight.
"Would my actions annoy you?"
To prevent her boyfriend's potential anger, she voiced her thoughts first. She refused to be hypocritical. After all, she was now the initiator of their intimacy.
Sean nodded candidly, longing for Norah to draw nearer to him.
“There are numerous banquets scheduled in Glophia over the next month.
I desire to accompany you."
“What sort of banquets?"
“Some are private gatherings, while others hold a more business appeal. I wish to present you to all attendees."
Kennedy's statement underscored Sean's realization that only he truly appreciated Norah's worth, while the inhabitants of Glophia continued to gossip about her.
Norah remained unperturbed by such gossips, but they weighed heavily on Sean's mind.
Norah hesitated, her hand pausing momentarily on his Adam's apple before slowly retracting.
"It's not necessary."
Apart from indulging in the culinary delights and libations offered at banquets, socializing held little appeal for her. Her professional sphere remained distinct from Sean's, with no overlap.
“Why do you think it's unnecessary? We're already together, and I want everyone to know you."
“Haha, introduce your girlfriend to everyone?"
Norah smirked. “Couples can part ways. There's no need for introductions now. When we're married.
Feeling the weight of his gaze, her words faltered. She realized that her words unintentionally conveyed an eagerness for marriage.
