Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan) novel Chapter 2715

Xavier's breath hitched. He reached for Norah's waist, trying to pull her away.

Norah knew he wouldn't dare use much force, which only made her bolder. She didn't just bite him; she deepened the kiss, pressing into his mouth.

Kissed and bitten, Xavier's mind was in chaos. He gave her arm a hard tug, and her elbow bumped against the wardrobe door, making a dull thud against the solid wood.

“What was that sound?” Yvonne, who was just pulling up the straps of her dress, frowned and looked back.

At the same time, Hannah, who was leaning back on the sofa with her phone, looked up. “What?”

Yvonne decided she must have misheard. “Nothing,” she replied, and went back to adjusting her dress.

Inside the wardrobe, the two of them froze for a moment. But Norah didn't pull back. She just looked up, her clear almond eyes fixed on Xavier in the darkness.

In the renewed silence, a subtle intimacy began to spread. Perhaps because the wardrobe was so small, the feeling had nowhere to go and began to swell, compressing the air and enveloping them both.

Norah's eyelashes fluttered. She tilted her head slightly and kissed him gently, like a soft feather brushing over his lips and landing lightly on his heart.

Xavier didn't dare move again. He held the girl's arm, his throat working continuously, his breathing growing heavier. He tried desperately to restrain himself, even closing his eyes.

He thought that if he couldn't see, his heart wouldn't be in turmoil. But not seeing only made his other senses sharper.

Outside, Yvonne had finished changing and was standing in front of the mirror. Her beautiful, poised face was tense as she said coolly,

“Mom, why did you say all those things earlier? You offended the Lamont family and embarrassed me in the process! You're usually so careful and thorough. This isn't like you at all.”

Hannah turned her phone over in her lap. She glanced at Yvonne's reflection in the mirror, a disdainful smile on her well-maintained face. “I knew you were sulking.”

Hannah was fearless. “If the Lamont family dares to retaliate, I'll tell everyone that Jonathan broke your heart and then tried to silence you for good. If they want to play dirty, so can we. We'll just take them down with us!”

Yvonne said angrily, “Do you really want to turn Jonathan and me into mortal enemies who can never see each other again?”

Hannah's grim expression softened, and she suddenly smiled. “Look how scared you are. I was just joking. Don't worry, I know where to draw the line.”

Yvonne's face remained tense. “It wasn't funny at all. I thought you were going to help me come up with a plan.”

“Don't worry, it's just a wedding. You look like it's the end of the world. Back in the day, Simon Hanson and Rena weren't just married—they even had a son. But didn't I become Mrs. Hanson in the end?” Hannah boasted, proud of her “accomplishment.”

When Norah heard this, her expression changed instantly. Just as she expected, a wave of fury emanated from Xavier. Pressed against his neck, she could feel the veins bulging.

It felt like at any second, he would kick open the wardrobe door and tear Hannah and her daughter to shreds.
