?Chapter 524:
It was a quiet miracle, subtly drawing them closer. Amabel was keen to join their conversation but didn’t grasp the topic that Kennedy was discussing. Her area of expertise was finance, so she had no choice but to engage Susanna in conversation.
However, Susanna was preupied with Norah. Even though she couldn’t participate in their discussion, she listened attentively from the sidelines.
Sean looked on with a smile. He shared a close bond with Kennedy and knew that Kennedy tended to keep others at arm’s length. It was out of his expectations that Norah and Kennedy hit it off well without his needing to step in. Norah sensed a special connection with Kennedy, feeling as though there was some kind of affinity between them. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be so at ease. Being aroundpatible people wasforting.
As the afternoon wore on, they talked for hours. Kennedy, feeling hospitable, decided to extend an invitation for dinner.
“Stick around for dinner. I’ll get a reservation sorted. Spencer, Amabel, are you up for joining?”
Spencer was close to declining when Amabel eagerly epted, “Sure, joining you would be wonderful.” Feeling out of ce, Spencer hesitated. But he knew he couldn’t just leave his sister. If sheterined, their parents would surely side with her. Norah, having the day off, agreed readily.
Susanna eximed with delight, “Yay, delicious food! I’ming!”
Kennedy teased, “Doesn’t your brother treat you to nice dinners?”
Your next chapter awaits at galnσ????????
“That’s right, Sean hardly lets me have anything tasty,” Susanna replied, looking visibly disappointed and pouting dramatically.
Sean struggled to keep a straight face. Though his sister was being naughty, her demeanor was adorable rather than annoying.
“Sean, with the money you make, you should definitely treat your sister better,” Kennedy chimed in, continuing the yful banter. “She’s a good girl. Be kind to her, alright?”
“Would I ever dare treat her poorly?”
Sean responded, ruffling her hair. “At home, she’s the one in charge.”
Susanna protested, “When have I ever been in charge?!” From the sidelines, Norah watched with a twinge of envy. “Norah, do you think I’m being unreasonable? It’s clearly my brother who is arrogant and bossy; he doesn’t let me do anything.”
Susanna pulled a still-dazed Norah into the conversation; Norah smiled and yed along. “You are the best; Sean is being unreasonable.”
“Humph, Sean, did you hear that?”
