Chapter: 716
"There's no need. Sean came to pick me up."
Sean had been texting her about when dinner would end and had arrived at the restaurant early.
Joanna finally noticed the luxury car parked across the street. Who else's could it be but Sean's?
"Alright, having a boyfriend does make a difference. You always have someone to pick you up. I envy you so much."
Seeing the smile on Norah's face, Joanna was glad Norah was in a relationship. It was indeed pointless to get upset over that fool Derek.
The Carter family even had the audacity to invite her family to the wedding. Therefore, if she caused a scene, it wouldn't be solely her fault.
She just couldn't stand seeing jerks and their partners happy.
Bryson had sobered up after taking the Mind Clearing Pill and watched Norah walk toward a black car.
The door opened, and a handsome man with a typically cold demeanor softened into tenderness at the sight of her, leaving only gentleness in his presence.
Norah leaned in and kissed Sean's lips before stepping into the car and smoothing her dress.
As the car door was about to close, Bryson glanced at Sean, who was typically remote, harsh, and intimidating, but this time Sean offered a gentle smile to Norah. His gaze radiated warmth.
Joanna watched them, feeling a pang of jealousy. “Oh my God! Mr. Scott is so handsome. He's so nice to Norah! They make me want to have a boyfriend too."
Bryson gently patted her head and advised, "Forget about that for now.
Focus on getting better. That's what's important."
Raina observed their conversation. Bryson was notably handsome yet perpetually single. Kathy, who had shown interest in him before, clearly wasn't right for him.
“Bryson, Joanna doesn't need to find a boyfriend for now, but you really should start looking for a girlfriend. It's time to settle down before you run into another situation like with Kathy."
She was tired of dealing with troublesome people like the Carter family.
The black car began to move and slowly pulled away, symbolizing the growing gap between Bryson and Norah.
After a moment of silence, Bryson responded, "Okay, I understand."
He wondered when he might meet someone who would captivate him again.
For now, he still harbored feelings for Norah.
Norah was unaware of his feelings towards her. She saw him as indifferent, always maintaining a composed demeanor and never displaying any affection towards her.
“Why did the Andrews family want to dine with you?"
“They just invited me over to express their gratitude for helping Joanna and Bryson."
