Chapter 136:

Sean found himself enveloped in a fog of confusion as he sifted through Moon’s reply. His vulnerability had been exposed to Norah, revealing his deep-seated desire to lavish her with all the wonders he could muster. Yet, Norah’s response remained chillingly indifferent, as cold as ever.

Seeing this message lightened Sean’s spirits somewhat. Moon, the mysterious advisor, shared some wisdom.
