Chapter 10

It was past 10 PM when Norah got home and saw Jonathan sitting on the living room couch. She rolled her eyes, gave a wink to the maid who was going to talk to her, and tiptoed upstairs.

“Come here the man leaned on the sofa’s backrest, holding a book in his hands, and spoke calmly

Knowing that she couldn’t avoid him, Norah boldly walked over. “Uncle, you’re still awake?”

Jonathan looked at her. “No wonder you’re so eager to find a tutor, turns out you’re busy going on dates. You got a boyfriend?”

“No!” Norah shook her head immediately. I just went shopping with my classmates!”

“Your boyfriend is your classmate?” Jonathan stated.

Realizing she couldn’t hide it from her uncle, she sat down and honestly said, “Yes, I have a boyfriend. I know our family is special, but can you not investigate him and not follow us? I just want a normal relationship. Don’t worry, he’s very good, and I’ve never told him anything about our family.”

Jonathan put down the book, took a sip of tea before slowly saying, “It’s normal to have a relationship in your junior year. I won’t investigate, but you should be careful. Your parents aren’t home, and I’m responsible for you.”

Norah’s face lit up with a smile. “Thank you, Uncle! You’re the best!”

“No need to butter me up. Go to bed,” Jonathan laughed and added, “Oh, right. Henson accepted your classmate as his tutor. Have her come by again next week,”

“Really?” Norah’s grin grew even wider, and while grabbing her phone, she said, “I’ll tell her right away!”

Jonathan heard Norah call out as she walked to the center of the stairs, “Estelle, are you asleep?”

The other one on the phone said something, and Norah laughed, “My uncle said you did a good job teaching. my brother, so you’re officially Henson’s tutor now! Every Saturday and Sunday morning. What do you think?”

Lowering his eyes, he unconsciously furrowed his brow. When did he say she did well?

As Norah disappeared upstairs, the man figured he didn’t need to argue with a young girl and continued reading his book.
