Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan) novel Chapter 3075

"Just hide it under your sleeve, no one will even see it," Norah insisted, gripping his hand tightly and refusing to let go.

Xavier frowned. He was wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt. What sleeve was he supposed to hide it under?

Completely oblivious to the flaw in her logic, Norah kept working the clasp. "Hold still!"

Xavier was just about to push her away when Dylan suddenly called out his name from up ahead. In that split second of distraction, Norah successfully snapped the bracelet around his wrist.

She looked up at him, her expression turning dead serious. "You're not allowed to take it off. If you do, I'll tell the entire world that I'm in love with you!"

They stood in a sunlit clearing on the mountain path. The bright rays cascaded down, illuminating her vivid, deeply affectionate eyes. Her tone was teasing, but the raw intensity in the way she looked up at him was undeniably real.

Those words—*I'll tell the entire world that I'm in love with you*—slammed into Xavier's chest like a physical blow. His hand curled into a tight fist. The cool silver charm resting against his pulse suddenly felt scorching hot, branding his skin.

He forced himself to turn away and walk toward Dylan. Norah followed closely behind, secretly clutching a matching bracelet in her own palm.

The vendor stalls stretched for a few hundred yards. The group casually browsed as they walked. Once they passed the market section, the trail became significantly steeper.

Leila immediately started complaining that she couldn't take another step. Dylan seamlessly hoisted her onto his back. "I've been hiking these mountains since I was a kid. Carrying you to the top is a piece of cake."

Leila glanced back at Norah, unable to hide her smugness. "Dylan and I do this all the time. Whenever I get tired, he carries me. Once, it was pouring rain, and he walked two hours from my office all the way to my apartment with me on his back, just so I wouldn't ruin my shoes."

Norah looked at her with genuine admiration. "You guys have such a great relationship!"

"If he didn't treat me like royalty, I'd dump him!" Leila teased playfully, slapping Dylan's shoulder. "Tell her! You're going to treat me this well forever, right?"

Dylan laughed. "Who else am I supposed to spoil?"

Leila leaned comfortably against Dylan's back and called back to Norah. "You must be exhausted too! Want me to hold your stuff for you?"

Norah wasn't carrying much—just the flower crown she had bought and a bottle of water.
