Chapter 444:

If a man lied once, Norah feared he might fabricate more lies.

She had heard a story about a 30-second blackout in the library. A couple, together for many years, were celebrating the girl’s birthday. As she made a wish with her eyes closed, the boy was busy texting another girl who had been frightened by the brief power outage in the library. Was he concerned for the other girl during those 30 seconds, or did he imagine celebrating every future birthday with his girlfriend?

Norah wasn’t sure. All she understood was that feelings would eventually fade.

Though love knew no bounds, could it bridge the vast distances and insurmountable obstacles that lay between two hearts? She knew people could choose to give up.

She wouldn’t surrender easily, but if she felt the other person might, she would gracefully retreat, avoiding further entanglement.

At her desk, Norah’s mind buzzed with scattered thoughts, stirred by Alice’s recent remarks.

She dismissed these baseless musings and powered on her computer.
