Chapter 110 Norah's Birthday
After taking a shower, Norah walked out of the bathroom.
To her surprise, Shawn was still there, but they seemed to have lost their common language despite being in the same room.
Norah had just washed her hair, and water was dripping down it.
She wiped her hair as she walked past Shawn.
"I'll help you." Shawn walked over.
"No need. I can do it myself."
After blow-drying her hair, Norah went to bed.
By this time, Shawn had already left.
Looking at his back as he left, Norah suddenly burst into tears.
She had promised not to cry, but she couldn't stop crying. Once her feelings were hurt by him, she couldn't control herself.
She knew he was such a proud man. How could he tolerate her coldness and distance?
He was always the center of attention and others always tried to please him. When would he ever need to please others?
But it was better that he left. She wouldn't have to pay attention to him all the time.
Maybe if she didn't see him, it wouldn't hurt so much.
And maybe she wouldn't feel so sad.
But where would he go so late at night?
The answer was clear without thinking.
It turned out that no matter how long or how many years passed, the one he loved would still be Lilian.
She used to think that she had a fearless heart, and she wasn't afraid of sacrifice, hardship, or waiting.
But the truth proved that she was wrong. She was actually more cowardly and fearful than anyone else.
Norah turned off the light and lay in bed with her eyes closed.
Although she was in bed, she wasn't really sleeping, just staring at the ceiling and the crystal chandelier.
After what seemed like hours, the door was suddenly opened.
Then she heard footsteps.
Shawn had come back.
Didn't he leave?
Didn't he go see Lilian?
Soon, the closet door was opened, and Shawn grabbed his pajamas before heading straight to the bathroom. Norah heard the sound of running water.
She suddenly felt like she couldn't figure him out at this moment.
Norah didn't realize that he was in bed and was holding her until a refreshing and pleasant scent wafted into her nose, and a pair of gentle and powerful hands wrapped around her slender waist.
"I'm not used to this," Norah pushed him away, speaking softly.
"You'll get used to it if I hold you more," he replied.
Norah was so angry that she turned around, her black pupils staring into his eyes with hatred.
Suddenly, she lowered her head and bit his shoulder hard.
When she bit down, she really used lots of strength, and Shawn quickly felt the pain.
He groaned, but his hands still tightly wrapped around Norah's waist, with no intention of letting go.
Norah let go of him and looked at him with her dark eyes again, anger and frustration written all over her face. "Shawn, let go of me."
"No."
This time, he replied even more firmly and directly, with no room for refusal.
Norah lowered her head again and bit down on the same spot.
This time, she used more strength.
She was in pain, her heart aching so much that it felt like it was breaking. Why was he acting like nothing was wrong?
