Chapter 241

Steven smiled faintly. “I’m not sad.”

“I know.” Norah nodded, her tone soft but firm. “You shared your feelings with me, and I respect that. But Steven, I’m not ready to start another relationship right now.”

Steven chuckled lightly. “What do you think I am, Norah? Don’t underestimate me. I’ll admit I have selfish intentions, but that doesn’t mean I don’t care about you as a friend. You’re one of my closest.”

Norah frowned. “What’s so good about me, Steven? I’ve wondered about that for years.”

Steven hesitated, then simply said, “You’re just… you.”

Norah couldn’t help but laugh.
