?Chapter 1289:


    “I remember before you two became a couple, you tried to impress each other with your cooking skills, right?” Susanna teased.


    Norah paused thoughtfully. “Not exactly. I mainly cooked for myself.”


    Sean stopped sorting the vegetables for a moment and looked over at Norah, who was focused on her task. He confessed, “Cooking is definitely part of one’s charm. I was really trying to impress Norah back then.”


    He had hoped to catch Norah’s special attention, harboring feelings that might have been deeper than he initially understood. Susanna chuckled and gave a thumbs-up. “Sean, you really know how to capture a woman’s heart.”


    Norah blushed slightly and yfully scolded him, “Stop making fun of him.”


    It was clear that Sean had deeper intentions even back then. At that time, although recently divorced, Norah was confident in her appeal.


    Indeed, men often noticed beautiful women.


    Norah had always had an eye for handsome men, and even before her feelings for Sean developed, she found him strikingly attractive. By evening, the duo had prepared a bountiful spread of dishes.


    Norah’s culinary skills could rival those of a three-star Michelin chef. Her creations were not only a feast for the eyes but also aromatic and savory. Susanna was already snapping photos to share on Instagram.

    When Calvin returned home from work, the vibrant scene in the living room nearly brought him to tears. “Norah, you’re finally back. Did your mome with you?”


    It had been an unusually long time since he had seen his wife, and he missed her deeply. His mention of missing his daughter seemed almost an afterthought.


    Norah quirked an eyebrow and said, “I came back alone.”


    Noticing her father’s disappointment, she quickly ryed some positive news. “Grandpa’s condition has stabilized. Mom said she’ll be back in a few days. Then you two can visit Grandpa together.”


    Calvin’s spirits lifted at the thought of his wife’s return.


    The prospect of dealing with his father-inw’s family made him somewhat apprehensive, but he wasn’t overly worried. He believed the Fraziers had already let go of the grudges they held against him after many years and wouldn’t evict him from their house.


    Seeing the tableden with dishes that Norah had prepared, Calvin felt a mixture of gratitude and pride. His daughter was so considerate, returning home and even cooking dinner for her father. He felt fortunate to have such a thoughtful daughter. He invited the Scott siblings to join the table, with Phillip naturally sitting next to Susanna.


    Calvin took his ce at the head of the table, his voice wavering slightly as he raised his ss. “We’ve been through a lot, but we’ve arrived at the best possible oue. Sean, you’re the one Norah chose, and you’ve been a great support to me during this time. Norah’s mom and I have always supported your rtionship. We hope your love stays as strong as when you first met. Always cherish the feelings you had at the start.”
