In love, never say never chapter 786

I smiled faintly as I stood by her bed. “Are you intending to chase me out then?”

Hearing my voice, Nora instantly sat up straight, then turned to me. “Ashton is finally willing to release you?”

I grinned and sat beside her. “Just like what you said – we’ll have a lifetime together, so I thought I’d come here and stay the night with you!”

Nora squealed and jumped with joy. “Scarlet, you’re the best! I knew it! You’re the best in this whole wide world!”

I flicked her head gently, trying to calm her down. “How could you determine that in such a short time? Go take a shower so we could sleep early.”

“Let’s shower together!” She narrowed her eyes at me.

I laughed as I pushed her towards the bathroom.

Once she finished shower, she hugged me and lay on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.

I knew she was troubled by something. “Are you thinking about Armond?”

She focused her gaze on me and said, “Of course not. There are other things on my mind too, you know.”

“What is it, then?”

She hesitated and sighed, “Aren’t you curious why I was brought to Venria?”

Now that I thought about it, I was. Even though the Oberick family weren’t extremely rich or prestigious back in A City, Channing was still a well-known person. Naturally, he would protect his granddaughter well. So how was Nora brought into Venria, and what’s worse, almost losing her life in the process?

“As a matter of fact, I didn’t know how my parents passed away. Grandpa said they were caught up in a car accident. I was only two months old at that time. If it weren’t for me, Grandpa would’ve left with my parents too,” Nora said emotionlessly.

I wasn’t good at comforting others, so I listened intently.

She leaned against me and continued, “It has always been Grandpa and me for as long as I can remember. There was some money left from my father’s mine. Grandpa used it for investment, so I was never without money. Even though Grandpa loves me a lot, I still want a complete family like the rest.”

Then she looked at me and continued, “Scarlett, I know you understand how I feel.”

I nodded in agreement. Back in R Province, I was envious of Macy. Her parents treated her well, and I had always thought about how my future would be if I found my biological parents one day. Then I realized the reality wasn’t as perfect as I imagined it to be.

After a brief pause, she carried on, “I told you before that I didn’t have many friends. Since young, I was acquainted with a lot of people, and they either hoped that I would buy things for them, or they’re using me for something else. Even if I knew their intentions, I still treated them as my friends because I was scared of being alone.”

She seemed to have a deep fear of being lonely.

Looking at her, I didn’t know what to say, so I just hugged her. “All will be well.”

“Before leaving for Venria, I was acquainted with a girl. When we met for the first time, we hit it off like old friends. She treated me well, and so I treated her like my best friend at that time. But I didn’t expect her to trick me into the mountains. Maybe it was a blessing in disguise since I get to meet you.”

After a while, she said to me, “Scarlett, did you know that I was really touched when you gave me the bracelet? That was the first time I’ve received any gift – a gift that sincere.

“I was wondering if that moment was an accumulation of good luck from the past twenty years of my life.”

I smiled faintly as I held her. “You will have more good luck in the future.”

She nodded. “When are you and Ashton leaving for K City?”

I gasped, “Why did you ask so suddenly?”

“I have thought things through. I’m going to K City with you to make a living. I have decided that I will be wherever you are. My Grandpa is old now, so he wanted me to have someone I could rely on. Ashton is like a brother to me, and naturally, you’re my sister-in-law. Don’t you dare think that you can cut ties with me.”

I laughed, “Alright. No cutting ties. But Nora, who’s going to take care of your Grandpa in A City if you’re leaving for K City?”

She replied, “There are housekeepers and caregivers in the Oberick family. My uncles and aunts could also take care of him. Besides, I will visit him often as well!”

She added after a slight pause, “I’ve always wanted to go to K City for the longest time, but I couldn’t because I was always alone. Therefore this time, I will definitely go with you!”

“Don’t tell me you’re going to K City for Armond’s sake?” After all, the Murphys headquarters were in K City.

She said with a blush, “That was part of the reason but not entirely so.”

The night deepened, and after some more random girl talk, she fell asleep.

The next day, the sky was cloudy as if rain could fall at any moment.

Nora was sleeping soundly. I didn’t want to wake her up, so I cautiously got out of bed and headed for the balcony. I took in the view outside and confirmed that it was raining.

I couldn’t help but glance at Nora. The weather was indeed suitable for sleeping in.

In love, never say never chapter 787

I discreetly exited the bedroom and headed towards Ashton’s room. The door to his room was left wide open, and his bed was neatly arranged. There were no signs of the man in that room.

I went downstairs and saw the caregiver preparing breakfast in the kitchen. She turned around when she heard some movement. “Ms. Stovall, you’re awake. Breakfast is ready, and they’re on the table. Feel free to dig in.”

I nodded and didn’t see anyone else around. “Did you see Mr. Fuller?”

She grinned, “Mr. Fuller had left in the early morning, saying he had something urgent to attend to in the city. He didn’t want to wake you up early, so he asked me to inform you that he will be having dinner with you tonight, so don’t be back too late.”

I nodded in silence. I presumed that he would be nervous about his project.

After breakfast, I strolled around the yard and saw Channing digging a patch there.

I greeted him as I approached, “Good morning, Mr. Oberick!”

He stopped digging when he saw me. “You’re awake. Have you had breakfast?”

I nodded and looked at what he was doing. “Mr. Oberick, are you planning to plant some flowers here?”

He laughed, “Fall is almost here. I want to plant some leek, so I could harvest them in the winter.”

Seeing that I was all alone, he asked, “Is Nora still asleep?”

I smiled and answered, “Let her sleep in a while longer. She slept late last night.”

He sighed, “She doesn’t sleep at night and doesn’t wake up in the morning.”

His affection could be heard in his tone, despite his grumbling.
