Chapter 1611

Norah’s heart was a mix of emotions, and whenever she thought of him, she couldn’t help but let a small smile grace her lips. She unlocked her phone, eager to see his response.

However, Xavier didn’t respond.

A wave of disappointment washed over Norah.

She clutched her phone, wondering if he had stepped away for a smoke, or got caught up in a poker with Zachary and the gang, hence, missing her message.
