Norah gasped in surprise. "That fast?"
Gonzalez smiled faintly. "I knew it was you."
Norah looked slightly embarrassed. "Don't get the wrong idea. I actually did it for myself."
Gonzalez frowned. "Didn't you say you were making up for what happened the other day? How did it go from being for me to being for yourself?"
Norah didn't quite know how to spin it, muttering softly, "Think whatever you want!"
Gonzalez chuckled, pulling out his phone to send a message.
Seconds later, Norah's phone chimed with a notification. She looked at the man in astonishment.
His dark eyes held a profound depth. "That's the contact information for the new project manager. Give him a call tomorrow."
Norah's eyes lit up, her smile brilliant and sweet. "Thank you, Mr. Hanson!"
In a great mood, Gonzalez replied playfully, "Don't mention it. It's a privilege for the Hanson Corporation to work with Ms. Norah."
Norah couldn't hold back her smile. She took a massive bite of food, her cheeks puffing out adorably, making her look incredibly vibrant and full of life.
Suddenly remembering something, she swallowed and asked, "Oliver lost his most vital right-hand man. Will he hold a grudge and come after you?"
"I've got the heiress of the Lamont family backing me. Why would I be scared of Oliver Hanson?" the man teased, a smirk playing on his lips.
Norah's bright eyes shifted, shooting him a playful glare. She almost told him, "If you've got a sugar daddy, you'd better hold on tight!"
But given their current dynamic, joking like that felt a bit too risky, so she pretended to focus on her food and stayed quiet.
After dinner, it was time for their tutoring session. As she was explaining a concept, the man leaned closer and closer. The distinct scent of mint and tobacco rolling off him made it nearly impossible for her to think straight.
She grabbed Circe and plopped the cat right between them, her face deadpan. "Lean in any closer, and class is over!"
