Chapter 856:
With a shake of his head, Jaxson walked away. It surprised him how challenging life at hhad becfor
Sean. Shortly after, Phillip ushered in the family doctor. The doctor attended to Nancy and eventually set her up
with an IV.
“It appears Miss Chase may have ingested a mild aphrodisiac. Thankfully, it wasn’t much. She should recover
well with srest and the infusion,” the doctor explained.

Kayla’s brow furrowed as she turned to Sean. “Didn’t Nancy attend the welcoming party with you? How on earth
could she have ended up taking that drug?”
Recalling his father’s recent words, Sean responded with restrained patience, though he felt quite the opposite.
“Mom, I'm not Nancy's keeper. | can’t monitor everything she consumes.”
“Nancy just tried to frme. | showed a lot of patience and tolerance by not kicking her out of this house.”
Sean's expression darkened as he continued, “I love you both, but that doesn’t mean | will love Nancy. Mom, if
you want her to stay here, tell her to abandon any ill-conceived plans and understand her place.”
Sean believed his father was right. As long as Nancy could provide emotional support to his mother, she was
useful, and he could reluctantly allow her to stay.
Kayla’s expression shifted slightly. “You're saying Nancy framed you? It was you who took advantage of her while
she was under the influence of drugs. You'll have to explain yourself when Nancy wakes up.”
Annoyed, Sean replied, “Fine, we'll see what comes to light then.” Not wanting to argue further, he politely
escorted his parents out and closed the door. Alone in the room, Sean's thoughts turned back to Norah. He
longed for her to be with him, to silently hold her in his arms.
When his project was finished, he planned to go to Silverdale to find Norah. He had grown weary of their strained
relationship over the past month. He intended to confront her, showing her the photos of her with Marlin,
questioning his own role as her boyfriend.

With hope in his heart, tseemed to drag. He pulled out his phone and browsed through the photos they had
taken together, a sweet expression softening his features.
Norah set her alarm for six o'clock in the morning and woke up immediately when it rang. She nudged Marlin,
who was sleeping restlessly beside her. “It’s tto wake up.”
Marlin’s eyes snapped open, still clouded with confusion.
Though autumn mornings arrived late, the sky was already beginning to lighten.
Marlin’s Maybach was stocked with washing utensils and food. They quickly freshened up, had breakfast, and
then headed out.
