Fated to Love You Again (Shawn and Norah) novel Chapter 64

Chapter 64 Norah, I'm Sorry

Rubbing his eyebrows, Shawn felt very confused now.

Especially when he saw her crying, he felt very uncomfortable.

But soon he forced himself to forget that feeling.

When he looked at Norah again, his eyes became very sharp. He said to her coldly, "I was wrong today. But I believe that Lily would not call me for no reason, especially at such a late night. She must have something important to call me."

"Norah, I'm sorry. I have to answer this call today."

Norah sneered.

It turned out that her every insistence was useless.

Blinking, she suddenly felt that the man in front of her was unfamiliar.

"Shawn, you just want to answer this call, aren't you?"

Her voice suddenly calmed down, which was no longer as hysterical as before, nor as sharp and tit-for-tat.

Glancing at her, Shawn finally spit out a word, "Yes."

It was the expected answer.

For some reason, Norah became calmer when she heard this word.

She reached out and took out the phone hidden behind her.

Then holding the phone in both hands, she respectfully handed it to Shawn.

Seeing her like this, Shawn felt very mixed.

Squeezing her fingers, he comforted her gently, "Norah, don't be like this. I'm just answering the phone."

"Really?" Norah replied indifferently, without saying another word.

Lowering her eyes, she rolled herself into the quilt and reached out to turn off the light in the room. There was only one pale yellow wall lamp glowing faintly in the room.

Two minutes later, Shawn returned the room after answering then call.

Norah was almost covered in the quilt, with only her head outside.

He hesitated for a while, then looked at her and said, "Lily's car broke down on Holly Mountain. I'll pick her up and come back right away."

Norah blinked, but didn't say anything.

Leaning on the bed, Shawn brushed away the hair on her forehead, intending to kiss her on the forehead.

As if sensing it, Norah immediately turned her head and quickly avoided it.

Shawn's hand suddenly stiffened in midair awkwardly.

Withdrawing his hand, he promised in a low voice, "I'll be back tonight soon."

Immediately, he put on his clothes and opened the door to go out.

Suddenly, Norah said in the dark, "Shawn, you made such a good promise. But have you ever thought about what if you don't come back tonight? Would this promise be a joke?"

"I'll be back tonight." Shawn said firmly.

"Really?" Norah laughed.

"But your promises are worthless to me. They're all like clumsy lies."

She was also naive and foolishly believed what he said. But what she got was not his gratitude and guilt, but deceit again and again.

"Norah." Shawn called her name. From the tone of his voice Norah could feel that he was angry.

"Do you want me to count it for you?"

Norah painfully recalled the lies that wounded her all over.

"You answered a phone call that night. When I asked you what happened, you said nothing. But as soon as I fell asleep, you got up and left without returning all night. Shawn, you always thought I didn't know, but in fact I I know everything. I didn't sleep at all that night. I didn't say it because I didn't bother to expose you."

"And now, you say you're just answering a phone call. In less than five minutes, you're going out to pick her up."

"You said you would be back tonight? Do you think you would believe me if you were me?"

Norah spoke all this so calmly.

She was so calm that she even felt that what she said now was none of her business.

"Shawn, I admitted I'm not smart, but I am not a fool."
