Chapter: 731
Norah laughed and responded, “Don't worry about it. Just ignore the comments."
When Norah got into the car parked at the hospital entrance, she could tell Sean was upset.
“Honey, did someone upset you today?"
Norah put her phone aside and tenderly held his hand.
"What's wrong? Who upsets you?"
Sean stayed quiet. Phillip interjected, "It's the online abuse! Mr. Scott was furious when he saw them."
Sean was truly angry and saddened by the nasty words aimed at Norah!
Fortunately, he managed to control his anger.
Norah was Sean's emotional support. Her mere presence soothed him, especially during his low moments.
It was a relief for everyone to have someone to calm Sean down when he was upset. Otherwise, they had to deal with his anger, which made them all uneasy. But with Norah there, Sean was emotionally stable, except for the occasional argument.
"Ah, mere rumors. It doesn't ruffle my feathers. Your agitation outweighs mine, it seems."
Norah's demeanor suddenly shifted, her figure gently pressing into Sean's for support.
Inside the car, a steady breeze from the air conditioner maintained a comfortable atmosphere, warding off any hint of stifling heat.
"No worries. Let them weave their tales. I'm rather intrigued to witness their creativity," Norah remarked with a hint of amusement.
Over time, the vast expanse of Norah's past had been unearthed by the relentless dig of online sleuths. She stood as the illegitimate daughter of the Wilson family, her marriage with the Carter family secured through connections, only to find herself discarded by them later.
Yet, the information circulating had grown stale in the streets of Glophia.
Sean's gaze darkened, his eyes clouding with concern. "The PR team is putting in extra hours. They're trying to contain the news about you."
His words hung heavy in the air, his demeanor chilly. The spreaders of rumors seemed oblivious to any repercussions, showing no regard for Sean or his esteemed family.
"Let's not burden the staff," Norah murmured softly, mindful of the strain on those laboring into the night. She imagined their frustration, compelled to toil beyond the call of duty.
Phillip interjected, a note of practicality in his tone. "They're compensated for the extra effort. Double pay made it appealing."
Despite Sean's reputation as a tireless worker, he governed with a calm efficiency, his leadership unwavering even in the face of turmoil.
For the company's employees, overtime was a rare occurrence, reserved for moments of dire necessity.
Norah hesitated briefly before responding, her words measured.
"That's good, but let's not overburden them."
