Chapter: 824
"Come on, I get it. But hey, Phillip, after hanging out with Amabel today, I'm not sure about her working abilities. Have you thought about what I said?"

It seemed like a good idea to keep Amabel away from Sean, to stop her from sabotaging Sean's relationship with Norah.

Susanna's impulse to keep them apart was strong.

Backing away, Phillip nodded. “I'll tell Mr. Scott."

Amabel seemed harmless now, but what if she was determined to win Sean over? It could cause trouble.

Seeing Phillip take her words seriously, Susanna smiled gratefully.

"Thanks, Phillip. You're the best."

Her words were sweet and heartfelt, making Phillip blush slightly and glance away, feeling a rush of warmth inside.

“You are welcome," he replied simply.

He quickly ducked out of the room, fearing he'd lose his composure if he lingered.

The click of the door locking echoed briefly before fading away.

Susanna stared at the closed door, still feeling the imprint of his touch on her leg as she absentmindedly placed a hand over her chest.

Why did that odd sensation return?

In the bedroom, things were heating up as Norah and Sean shed their clothes, leaving nothing between them.

Norah leaned over Sean, her eyes sparkling with desire.

Memories of their last drunken escapade were hazy, but now they flickered back to life.

The moans, the deep kisses...

Sean's body was toned and muscular, showcasing precisely defined abs on his waist. There wasn't an ounce of excess fat as beads of sweat shimmered, tracing the curves of his muscles.

With damp hair and dark eyes, he met her gaze as she leaned in to kiss him deeply.

"I really like you," she whispered, taking charge as she straddled him. Words were quite easy in such intimate moments.

“Sean, do you enjoy this?"

In the dimly lit room, Sean's and Norah's deep, heavy breathing grew increasingly apparent.

Norah was the type of person who, once committed, devoted herself wholeheartedly to the relationship. For her, intimacy would unfold naturally and serve as a catalyst for building strong connections.

Armed with plenty of theoretical knowledge, she hadn't had the chance to put it into practice. Looking at Sean, with his exceptionally fit physique, she couldn't help but swallow hard.
