"Go and get a shower," Nora encouraged her, her voice filled with warmth and care. Alice mustered a tired smile, grateful for Nora's thoughtfulness. With a nod, Alice rose from her seat, her steps guided by the promise of rest after taking her bath.In the next room, Nora took her bath first, the soothing water cascading over her body, washing away the weariness of the day. She changed into her comfortable nightwear, the soft fabric embracing her skin like a gentle caress. Content with her own preparations, she encouraged Alice to do the same, ensuring that her dear friend would find solace and rejuvenation in the simple act of self-care.With the tasks completed, Nora bid Alice and Mia a heartfelt goodnight, her voice carrying a sense of warmth and affection. She made her way back to her room, where Merrick patiently awaited her return.Merrick lay on the bed, his gaze fixed upon the ceiling, lost in his own thoughts. As Nora entered the room, her eyes caught sight of Merrick's conte

Nora was surprised as she furrowed her brow. "Then why did you ask me to bring them? I thought they were important," she said, her tone filled with confusion.Merrick's expression softened, and he reached out to gently caress her cheek. "I asked you to bring them because I wanted to see you," he confessed, his voice carrying a hint of vulnerability. "I was...jealous, Nora. I thought you had a connection with William, and it made me sad."Nora's eyes widened in shock, She hadn't expected this revelation. "Merrick, I didn't realize you felt that way," she whispered, her voice filled with surprise. "I never had any romantic interest in William. My heart has always been with you even though you were really harsh to me then."Merrick's eyes softened, reflecting a profound sense of happiness. "I'm glad to hear that, Nora. When I discovered my jealousy, it made me realize just how much I care about you. I wanted to take a chance, to show you my feelings and make my move."Nora couldn't help

Noticing Mia's discomfort, Austin's expression softened. Unaware of the true cause of her distress, he continued, his tone sympathetic. "I apologize if I startled you. Please know that I mean no harm. I simply wanted to ask for your mom's contact information."Axel, feeling protective of his Mom, interjected, his voice filled with concern. "Why do you need her contact?" he asked, his eyes narrowing slightly.Austin met Axel's gaze, his intentions transparent. "It's been a while since we've seen each other, and I thought it would be nice to reconnect as friends. I assure you, there's no ulterior motive. I just want to stay in touch."Mia, her anxiety slowly ebbing, looked at Austin. She understood the significance of her mother's contact information and the potential connection it could bring with Austin since he said they were friends.Axel, after a brief pause, nodded in understanding, realizing that Austin's intentions were genuine. He turned to Mia, offering silent reassurance with

Unbeknownst to her, Merrick had silently entered the room. As he observed Nora's tense posture, he took a moment to compose himself before speaking. He approached her cautiously, careful not to startle her further. "Who was that?" he asked softly, his voice filled with concern.Startled, Nora quickly turned around to face Merrick, her eyes wide with surprise. She took a deep breath, attempting to collect her scattered emotions. "It was my ex," she replied, her voice laced with weariness and lingering frustration.Merrick nodded understandingly, sensing that Nora wasn't ready to divulge any further information just yet. He had made a silent promise to himself to give her space and allow her to open up at her own pace. He respected her need for privacy, knowing that trust would be built gradually over time.Changing the subject, Nora shifted her focus to something less tumultuous. Concern colored her voice as she inquired, "How is William?"Merrick's expression softened, a gentle smile

Nora sighed, her gaze fixed on a distant point. "He said he got it from Mia," she replied, her voice tinged with bitterness. "I guess when he dropped off his son, that's when he took the opportunity."Understanding dawned on Alice as she connected the dots. "Oh," she muttered, sympathy and frustration evident in her voice. "That's not right at all from a kid?."Nora's solidified as she spoke her next words. "I don't want him to ever call me again," she declared, her voice firm and resolute.Alice offered a simple solution, her voice filled with practicality. "It's simple.
