?Chapter 267:
Thirty million dors couldn’t solve the problem.
Phillip and Kelvin stood before Sean, waiting for hismand.
Sean ordered, “I’ve read the report Phillip gave me. They want to take over Jack’s territory and merge the East Zone. Let’s wreak havoc for them. Kelvin, send some of our men there.”
Sean’s heart ached at the sight of Norah’s wounds. He vowed to make Riss and Oscar pay for knocking over the dishes Norah had made for him. However, this was not the right moment to take down the Breaker. At least, the Breaker shouldn’t be ruined by Sacredice for now.
Kelvin, always eager to cause trouble for the Breaker, nodded. “Please rest assured, Mr. Scott. Consider the job done.”
The Breaker had unwittingly offended both Sean and Norah. As the leader of Sacredice and Norah’s boyfriend, Sean was certain that the Breaker wouldn’t escape the consequences.
Meanwhile, Norah took a long, warm shower. The disgust and icky feelings from the afternoon’s ordeal finally began to fade. She was determined to take revenge on Riss and Oscar. Norah wanted to make Riss and Oscar understand that stealing thirty million dors from Sean wouldn’t go unpunished.
As Norah dried her hair, she steeled herself for what was toe.
She set the table and turned on theputer, about to check the stock market. Right then, a soft knock on the door rang. It was likely Sean.
Norah turned off theputer and went to the door. Sean had changed into a casual outfit, his damp hair revealing that he had just showered.

Sean’s eyes widened with admiration as he looked at Norah. She was wearing a bathrobe, with specks of water sshed on her as she ran a hand through her hair. Her eyes sparkled under the light. Sean couldn’t bring himself to tear his eyes off her rosy lips as she spoke.
“Do you want to see me, darling?” Norah asked.
Sean took the towel and wiped her hair, his voice hesitant. “Err… I was worried you might overthink, so I came to check on you.”
Norah turned around and sat on the sofa, feeling the gentle rub of his hands on her hair. She narrowed her eyes to enjoy his tenderness.
“Why would I overthink? Darling, don’t forget I apanied you to kill Jack,” she said, lifting her chin.
It was just a kidnapping, Norah thought, brushing it off as no big deal. After all, she had kidnapped others during missions before. She wasn’t scared at all.
Sean’s eyes darkened. “I recalled you being kidnapped by the Fox Alliance from mour Club…”
Norah opened her eyes. Back then, she had pretended to be a frightened victim to avoid getting questioned by the police. After all…
She was the one who had killed those three gangsters. She didn’t expect Sean to remember it so vividly.
“Yeah, well… I’ve experienced it before at mour Club, so I’m no longer scared,” Norah said indifferently, as though the murder and abduction were no big deal.
Sean couldn’t help but wonder what she must have gone through to be so unaffected by it.
Norah still remembered what she had said to Sean in the true restaurant.
“Sean, what would you do if you found out that I’ve hidden many things from you?” Norah had asked.
Sean meticulously dried her hair. “Everyone has secrets. Don’t mind if you hide anything from me. You can keep the secrets to yourself for your whole life if you don’t want to share them with me.” As for his own secrets, Sean nned to share them with Norah bit by bit. “I’m sure we’ll get to know each other over time.”
Norah’s long hair cascaded down her shoulders. Sean dried her hair with a towel, then grabbed a hairdryer and turned it on.
“Sean, you’re great at drying hair,” Norah said. “Is it because you’re experienced in helping other girls dry their hair?”
The loud buzzing of the hairdryer muffled Norah’s voice, but Sean heard her question.
“I’ve only helped two girls dry their hair,” he said, rubbing her hair gently. “One is Susanna, my sister, and you’re the other one.”
Norah burst outughing. “Are you implying that I should consider you my elder brother?”
