Chapter 125:

Him Again

Norah recalled Sean once saying she was his first true love.

His words always had a way of captivating her. Each time, he managed to shake her heart, causing the defenses she had carefully built to crumble.

Norah fidgeted with her fingers, looking down. “I won’t stop caring for Kason. Sean, it’s better if you don’t spend your time on me.”

“I decide how to use my time,” Sean’s response was icy, as if speaking from a frozen wasteland.

The black car came to a halt, and Norah noticed they had arrived at the gate of Sean’s villa.

“Do I need to walk back by myself?” Norah hesitated, puzzled as to why he had brought her here, knowing well where she lived.

Phillip didn’t reply, simply drove into the villa’s garage, and went inside.

Sean stepped out, opened the door for Norah, and offered his hand. “Now that you’re here, why not come in for a bit?”

Norah took a deep breath, managing a smile. “It’s late, and it doesn’t seem right for a man and a woman to be alone together at this hour.”

“I’m just asking you in for a chitchat. Are you thinking there’s something more?”

Sean had a slight smile on his face, making Norah feel as if he found her overly sensitive.

She replied, “No, not that way. I just don’t feel like having a chitchat with you.”

His eyes turned serious, his tone filled with warning.
