Norah was really upset, her teeth almost sinking into her lip. But she had to put up a fake gentle smile as she followed behind the two. 

 

When they arrived home, the three of them noticed a luxury car that they had never seen before parked up in front of the door.

Even if the man was not facing them directly, his extraordinary charm made it impossible for people to take their eyes off him. 

Norah had never seen such a good-looking man before. She rushed up to Gloria and said, “Mom, who is that person?”

Norah was waiting for Daniel to introduce her, but Daniel did not even spare her a glance.
