Chapter 70:

Sean spoke without a hint of emotion, making it hard to gauge his feelings. Norah found it difficult to read him. She was certain that once he had decided on something, he would stand his ground. So, she agreed, “Alright. I’ll listen to you, Mr. Scott.”

After giving her consent, Norah came up with another question. “Mr. Scott, do you have that thing at your house?” She had sanitary napkins at her place, but she couldn’t get in at the moment.

Norah’s expression turned into a frown. The situation was more uncomfortable than she had anticipated.

“Give Phillip a call. He’ll see to it that someone gets it ready for you,” Sean said, handing her his phone. “Call him now so it’s ready by the time we get back.”

Norah put the TV drama on hold and reached for his phone. Sean’s phone was the latest model from an international brand. Its silver-gray color tone was very fitting for his cold personality. The screen showed the route back to Dreamview Villas.

As Norah was about to call Phillip, a new message flashed on the screen. “Sean, I’m coming back from abroad. Let’s catch up when you’re free.” The name attached to the message was Bel.

Norah chose to ignore it and proceeded to inform Phillip of her request. Upon handing back Sean’s phone, Norah casually mentioned, “You’ve received a message.”

“Alright.” Sean accepted his phone without a glance, swiped back to the map, and placed the phone down.

“Um, aren’t you curious about the message? I couldn’t help but notice it just now. Someone’s invited you out to dinner.”

“Oh, it’s probably just someone unimportant.” Leaning back, his fingers casually resting on the steering wheel, Sean responded, “I’ll check it after we reach the destination.”

The sleek black car entered the luxurious villa complex, coming to a stop in the underground parking. A casual glance from Norah revealed a collection of more than twenty high-end vehicles in the garage. It dawned on her just how wealthy Sean truly was.

In addition to regular cars, there were also specially modified racing cars. Among them was the sleek black racing car Sean drove in Krusa Mountain, which had a particularly striking appearance.
