?Chapter 431:


    Norah leaned in and kissed Sean’s lips before stepping into the car, smoothing her dress as she settled in. Just as the car door was about to close, Bryson nced at Sean. Typically distant, harsh, and intimidating, Sean’s demeanor softened as he smiled gently at Norah, his gaze radiating warmth.


    Joanna, watching the exchange, felt a pang of jealousy.


    “Oh my God! Mr. Scott is so handsome. He’s so kind to Norah! They make me want to have a boyfriend too,” she eximed.


    Bryson gently patted her head and advised, “Forget about that for now. Focus on getting better. That’s what’s important.”


    Raina observed their conversation, noting that Bryson, while notably handsome, remained perpetually single. Kathy, who had shown interest in him before, clearly wasn’t the right match for him.


    “Bryson, Joanna doesn’t need to find a boyfriend right now, but you really should start looking for a girlfriend. It’s time to settle down before you end up in another situation like with Kathy.”


    She was tired of dealing with troublesome people like the Carter family.


    The ck car began to move, slowly pulling away, symbolizing the growing distance between Bryson and Norah. After a moment of silence, Bryson responded, “Okay, I understand.” He wondered when he might meet someone who would captivate him again. For now, though, he still harbored feelings for Norah.


    Unaware of Bryson’s feelings towards her, Norah saw him as indifferent, always maintaining aposed demeanor and never showing any affection towards her.

    “Why did the Andrews family want to dine with you?” Bryson asked.


    “They just invited me to express their gratitude for helping Joanna and you,” she replied.


    She pulled out a ck card and said, “They gave me this as a token of their appreciation. It’s a no-limit ck card.”


    When Sean saw the card, he realized that, aside from some jewelry he had given her before they became a couple, he hadn’t really given her much.


    He felt a pang of regret for having overlooked such a significant gesture.


    “No, you don’t have to use their card. Use mine instead,” he insisted, taking the card from her and cing his own into her hand.


    “This card is good for any sector of my family businesses, and there’s no spending limit.”


    The Scott family was wealthier than the Andrews family. After a brief pause, Norah handed the card back to him.


    “I have my own money.”


    She had epted the ck card from the Andrews family because it gave her the option not to use it if she didn’t want to. She neither wanted nor needed Sean’s ck card.


    “Wait, listen to me,” Sean said, his tone softer but still firm.


    Noticing Sean’s stern look, Norah exined, “I can ept your gifts, but leave out the money. I won’t use it.”


    It was typical for couples to exchange gifts, and she hadn’t asked for money in return for the medicine she had given Sean. Seeing the determined look on her face, Sean sighed. What could he do when his girlfriend wouldn’t let him spend his cash on her?


    “Why shouldn’t I spend some on my girlfriend? I earn money for my girlfriend!”


    Before, he hadn’t had a girlfriend, so he spent his earnings at home. But now that he had one, he wanted to spoil her with everything nice.


    A spark appeared in Norah’s eyes.


    “Aren’t you worried I might run off with your money?”


    Phillip, sitting in the driver’s seat, started coughing and choking.


    Norah was momentarily lost for words.


    The partition might have blocked the driver’s view, but it was definitely not soundproof.


    “Phillip, are you enjoying our conversation?” she asked, her tone teasing.


    Sitting up straight, Norah retrieved the ck card from the Andrews family and sternly ced Sean’s card back into his hand.


    “I’m not short of money.”


    Sean’s expression grew cold. Just because she was well-off didn’t mean she shouldn’t spend his money.


    “I want to give you an allowance. You can get whatever you like,” he said firmly, pushing the card back into her hand, refusing to let her drop it.


    Norah had no choice but to ept it. She nned to keep it alongside the ck card from the Andrews family. She was financially secure; why would she use someone else’s money?
