Upon seeing Lenora, Jonas couldn’t help but express his concern. “Nora, I’m really sorry about the other day. Are your injuries all right now?”
At that time, he was surrounded by a crowd, and with the noise buzzing in his ears, he couldn’t see anything. He didn’t initially realize that Lenora had fallen. After disembarking from the plane, he messaged Lenora on WhatsApp, but Lenora didn’t say much about it. Later, he learned from Sophia that Lenora had been trampled after falling.
With a laugh, Lenora shook her head. “I’m all right now. They were just superficial injuries.”
When recalling the incident at the airport in Musbane, Sophia couldn’t help but express her exasperation. by saying. “Those obsessive fans were out of control. Did you figure out how your itinerary got leaked?”
“Yes; it was an assistant. My manager has already taken care of it,” Jonas said, somewhat relieved, but still looking at Lenora with concern. “Thankfully, Nora is not seriously hurt. I wouldn’t have been able to forgive myself otherwise.”
“This has nothing to do with you. You’re a victim too,” Lenora said.
Jonas had almost missed his flight when that happened
“Let’s not talk about this now. How about we order our food first?” Sophia said.
“Yeah: let’s do that!”
After ordering their meal, Fiona shifted the topic by asking, “How was your time in Archulea?”
When it came to discussing their adventures, Sophia couldn’t help but enthusiastically share their experiences in Archulea. She spoke with such detail that they felt as if they had all been there with her. She even created a group chat to share

Before starting to eat, Lenora made a trip to the restroom.
She dried her hands with a paper towel and stepped out of the bathroom, pausing momentarily.
Jonas was standing by the bathroom door, as if he was waiting for someone.
Hearing footsteps behind him, he turned around and said, “Hey, Nora.”
“Why are you standing here?” Lenora asked.

Jonas wasn’t about to les rape this time. He firmly grasped her hand as he continued, “Nora, you know what I’m about to say?
After waiting painstakingly for her divorce, he didn’t want to wait any longer. He feared that more delay would only bring more complications.

Tenora paused, uudetly pulling her hand from Jonas’s grip. She forced a smile as she looked at him intently and said, “Jonas, 1 don’t want to lose you as a friend
They wouldn’t even be able to remain friends once certain words were spoken.
Jonas’s complexion was slightly pale, a hint of hidden pain flickering in his eyes as he asked, “You’ve never once condered me, have you?”
Lenora averted her gaze, calmly looking into the distance as she replied, “Don’t waste your time on me.”
“He cheated on you, and you still like him?
Whether I like him or not isn’t the issue. I’ve just come out of a marriage and currently, I don’t have the energy to dive into a new relationship.”
“I can wait. I can wait for you to emerge from the shadow of your previous marriage, Jonas declared resolutely. He didn’t hesitate in the slightest.
Lenora fell silent for a few seconds before asking, “What if I never manage to get out in my entire life!”
“Then I’ll wait for you my entire life!”
Lenora was feeling somewhat of a headache.
She wasn’t joking, when she asked him that question.
Her first marriage had left her emotionally drained, and she truly had no intentions of marrying again. In fact, she was even contemplating a lifetime of solitude
After all, living the rest of her life by herself wasn’t too bad.
Moreover, she had no mental capacity to ponder on anything else at the moment. All she wanted to do now was to avenge her father.
Just as Lenora was about to say something, the sudden sound of clapping echoed from the side. Zachary clapped his hands as he made his way over, his gaze flickering between Lenora and Jonas. With a cold, mocking smile, he said, “He’ll wait for you his entire life? How incredibly touching!”
Upon seeing Zachary, Lenora was momentarily stunned. Not wanting to listen to his sarcastic remarks, she turned toward Jonas and said, “Let’s go, it’s time for dinner.”
“All right,” Jonas replied, ignoring Zachary completely. He then walked shoulder to shoulder with Lenora

Sering himself being ignored by the two, Zachary’s face turned ashen in an instant. As Lenora walked past him, he called out to her, “Lenora!”
Seeing as Lenora was completely unresponsive, Zachary felt incredibly frustrated. He clenched his fist and asked, “Don’t you care about Cotton anymore?”
Lenora halted in her tracks and stormed up to Zachary “Where did you take Cotton?” she asked angrily.
Zachary chuckled before replying, “Cotton is at the pet hospital. Where else could I possibly take it?”
“What did you mean by what you said, then?”
“Come with me now to pick up Cotton. If you leave, you’ll never see Cotton again!”
Lenora was furious, glaring at Zachary as she exclaimed. “Zachary! Are you using Cotton to threaten me? You’re despicable and shameless!”
It’s to frustrating!
Forfer, Cotton was more than just a kitten she had spent a month with. During her most desperate and Powerless times, Cotton provided her with a sense of support, adding a glimmer of vitality to her
otherwise bleak existence.
To put it more dramatically, Cotton was like her own child.
Zachary raised an eyebrow at her. “Are you going to join me to pick up Cotton or not?”
Lenora glared at Zachary, gritting her teeth so hard that it felt as though they might break.
She took a deep breath before turning to face Jonas. “Jonas, you should head back to the private room. Let Soph and Fifi know that I’ll be stepping out for a while as I have some matters to attend to.”
Jonas looked at Lenora with concern. Seeing Lenora signal him with a glance, he shifted his anger toward
Zachary and said, “Zachary, you and Nora are already divorced. Why do you insist on bothering her?”
Zachary maintained his composure as he replied, “Who says divorce means we can’t remarry?”
When it seemed as though Jonas was about to say something more, Lenora stopped him. “Jonas, there’s no need to argue with him. You should head on back now!
Jonas had no choice but to suppress the resentment bubbling within him. He warned Lenora, “You’d better be careful around him.”
After he finished speaking, he shot Zachary a resentful glance, then turned around and left.
With a look of disdain, Lenora told Zachary, “Let’s go pick up Cotton, then.”
Zachary stood unmoving, his gaze deeply fixed on Lenora. His tone was unintentionally laced with bitterness as he said, “You’ve liked him for so long, and now your wish has come true. He’s going to wait for you forever, you must be overwhelmed with emotion, right?”
Lenora rolled her eyes in silence. “Yes, I’m very touched. Now, let’s hurry and pick up Cotton.”

Zachary’s eyes turned even gloomier, Gritting his teetin anger, he asked. “So, you’re planning to be with him?”
“This has nothing to do with you. Are we leaving or not? If not, then I’m going back to my private room she said.
Taking a deep breath, Zachary suppressed the tight sensation in his chest and grasped Lenora’s wrist. “Tets go.”
Lenora attempted to break free, but Zachary only tightened his grip even more.
Lenora rolled her eyes in exasperation.
Upon reaching the parking lot, Lenora slid into the passenger seat, her face devoid of any emotion as she said. “Make it quick.”
Zachary didn’t seem to be in a hurry to start the car as he sat down in the driver’s seat.
He then let out a wry chuckle and asked, “So eager to take Cotton home and cut ties with me, are you?” Lenora gazed ahead, a frown creasing her forehead. “Zachary, sometimes I really don’t understand what s going on in your mind. Haven’t you already decided to sell Galaxy Bay! I thought you had come to terms -with it-”
“Come to terms with what?”
“You claimed you loved me, but in reality, it was just guilt and possessiveness over your ex–wife. You are in love with Susanna, aren’t you? Didn’t you allow her to retire from the limelight, planning to marry her? Why are you still clinging onto me?”
Upon hearing Lenora’s words, Zachary fell silent.
She misunderstood him so much that he didn’t even know where to begin explaining.
