Chapter: 865
Her brother had mentioned that her family and the Scott family had initiated several joint ventures. And she doubted whether it was for her sake.
Since Sean's father had decided to step away from managing the company affairs, news about them was seldom in Glophia. With Susanna now in the hospital, Joanna wondered if her parents would return in time.
Susanna, lying in bed, turned away from Joanna and said, “Joanna, thanks for visiting. I'm quite tired and would like to sleep now.”
“Okay, rest well," Joanna replied.
Aware that Susanna was missing her parents, Joanna chose to leave so as not to disturb her. She planned to discuss this with Norah, especially since Susanna might feel uneasy with Norah being away in Silverdale for an exchange program.
When Joanna shared the situation with Norah, Norah in turn spoke to Sean. "I've known you for so long, yet I've never heard anything about your parents. Won't they be coming back?"
Given Susanna's hospitalization, it seemed unlikely her parents would continue their travels.
Sean stroked Norah's hair and reassured her, “I've called my parents, and they've confirmed they'll return by plane tomorrow. They won't travel while Susanna is undergoing treatment."
Leaning against him, Norah felt curious about his parents. She knew she could Look up information online, but hearing about them directly from him would be more meaningful.
"Sean, could you tell me more about your parents?"
Though she was heading to Silverdale soon after their return, Norah thought it was possible to meet them for the first time in Susanna's hospital room.
It would be her first meeting with Sean's parents, so she aimed to gather as much information about them beforehand as possible.
"My father is a man of simple needs. From the day I was born, I was designated as the heir to the family business. Throughout my childhood and into adulthood, I underwent various forms of training to prepare for my role as the head of the Scott Group."
Sean shared his history in a soft tone. "The reason I'm not well- known in Glophia is that I spent a lot of time overseas. It was only when I formally took over the family's business that I started living in Glophia regularly."
"That explains why you pronounce those words like a native. Did you live in Yedan before?"
Norah leaned forward, her eyes shining.
Initially, she had mistaken Sean for a native speaker at the Silverstone Circuit due to his accent. She was taken aback when she later realized he was actually Sean.
"Yes. I like your accent too."
It turned out they had both lived in the same city as children. Sean was three years her senior. Although they both spent time in Yedan, their paths had never crossed, Norah reflected.
Considering Sean's wealthy background, and her own past as a beggar and later an assassin, it made sense they hadn't met.
"Please, continue about your father."
"I haven't spent much time with my father. He and my mom would visit me abroad during Christmas. I know they are very laid-back. My mom is a pianist and enjoys attending various concerts. She's a very gentle woman."
After hearing this, Norah mainly remembered two things: his father was a low-key and laid-back entrepreneur, and his mother was a gentle piano artist.
"WiLL they Like me?"
