Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan) novel Chapter 3229

The woman appeared to be in her forties, sporting short hair and eyeing Norah with clear wariness.

Startled, Norah quickly explained. "I live right next door. Your cat got out!"

As she spoke, she gently tried to set the cat down on the sofa.

But the feline practically glued itself to her arm, scrambling right back up into her embrace. Flustered, Norah had no choice but to hold it again, offering a sheepish smile.

She had no idea why this cat was so deeply attached to her.

The woman let out a relieved laugh. "Oh, I'm just a pet sitter hired to come in and make her meals. I must not have closed the door properly when I came in and let Circe slip out. Thank you so much, sweetie."

"No problem at all!" Norah smiled. "So her name is Circe!"

At the sound of her name, Circe let out two happy chirps, looking absolutely delighted.

"Circe is usually terrified of strangers. She barely even lets me near her, but she seems to have taken an instant liking to you," the woman chuckled. "The owner will be home soon, so I need to hurry up and finish her food."

"Alright, I'll head home then!"

Norah set Circe down again and turned toward the door, but the cat immediately lunged at her leg, desperately trying to climb back into her arms.

"Be a good girl. I have to go home now. Once your owner gets back, I'll come over and play with you!"

No matter how gently Norah coaxed her, Circe refused to let go, stubbornly clinging to Norah's leg like her life depended on it.

Seeing the struggle, the sitter offered a suggestion. "Are you busy right now? If not, why don't you hang out here for a bit?"

She could tell Norah really liked the cat too.

Norah agreed easily. "Sure, that works. You go do your thing, I'll keep Circe company."

"Thank you so much!" The woman smiled gratefully before hurrying back into the kitchen.

Norah took a seat on the sofa. Circe happily climbed into her lap, rubbing affectionately against her before flopping over to demand belly rubs. The cat's absolute adoration made Norah feel like they were meant to be best friends.

A few minutes later, the sitter brought out Circe's freshly prepared dinner and placed it in her bowl. Circe was starving, but even as she ate, her eyes kept darting back to Norah, terrified she might disappear.
