Nora and Her Unexpected Billionaire Eleanor Reeves
The car that pulled up outside the main house didn't need to announce itself. Arlo was already on the steps when she got out — white hair streaked through dark, pinned back with a gold crest. "Grandma." He came down and kissed her cheek. "Didn't think you'd actually come out here yourself. You could've sent someone." " I’d rather come myself” she said giving him a stern look. "This house was a gift from an old friend and it is older than your father." She said it plainly, already looking past him toward the cottage through the trees. "I have a great deal of history in this building” “Hearing it had been destroyed wasn’t good news” she said in a low tone. "It's not destroyed” he said shrugging “A tree just came down. It's being fixed." She wasn't listening. She was already walking. The workers tried to stop her going in "The floor isn’t stable ma’am , there is debris all over" they all clamored, panicking at the sight of her walking in. She looked at each of them in tur

Nora's hands were shaking when she grabbed her phone. She snapped a photo of the album page and sent it to Daniel, then called him right after. He picked up on the second ring. "Nora?" "Did you get the picture I just sent you?" "Hang on."he said, while trying to check his computer. "Yeah. I'm looking at it now." A beat. "That's Ruth." "I know it's Ruth. Do you know how weird it is that I found this in the cottage I'm renting? In Thailand?" He didn't say anything. "Daniel?" "I'm here." "Did you hear what I said?" "I heard you." She kept going, pacing now, back and forth across the wrecked floor while Maya watched from the doorway, arms folded, not saying anything. "I've been investigating my birth mother while I've been out here.” She said walking further away from prying eyes and ears “I was adopted, you know that, and I found some documents in Ruth's things after she died, and I've been trying to figure out where I came from." "I thought this was a holiday."

The car drove slowly uphill, trying its best to maneuver around broken branches on the road.Nora sat quietly in the back seat, watching the wet trees pass outside the window. She still hadn't completely processed the fact that she was going to spend the night at Arlo's house again. The last time she'd been there, she had been a stranger who had accidentally ended up in his care.When the car finally stopped, Arlo got out and opened the rear door for Maya before walking around to Nora's side.“You can leave the bag. I'll get it.”“I can carry my own things.”“I know.”He took it anyway.Nora followed him inside with Lilly's carrier in her hands while Maya came behind them with her suitcase. Ben had already taken the dogs ahead, and they disappeared down the hallway the moment they were released.The house felt different from the last time Nora had been there. Maybe it was because she wasn't arriving exhausted and embarrassed after being stranded outside in the rain. Or maybe it was si

A sharp knock at the door pulled Nora out of a restless sleep.For a few seconds, she lay there staring at the ceiling, trying to remember what time it was. The day light had already begun filtering through the curtains, casting pale strips across the room.Then the knocking came again, and she dragged herself out of bed, running a hand through her tangled hair before making her way to the door.“Maya?”Maya stood on the porch with a suitcase beside her and another smaller bag hanging from her shoulder.“Good morning.”Nora blinked at her. “What are you doing here?”“I changed my mind about the hotel.” Maya wheeled her suitcase inside as though the decision had already been made. “I’m staying with you.”Nora's tired face immediately brightened. “Seriously?”“Seriously.”She stepped forward and hugged her without hesitation. Having someone familiar standing in the cottage suddenly made the place feel less isolated.“I’m glad you’re here,” she admitted when they pulled apart.“I know.”

For a few seconds after their lips parted, neither of them moved.The silence between them had changed completely. Only minutes ago, Nora had been furious with him, ready to walk away and leave him standing in the park.Now she was still close enough to feel the warmth of his body, her fingers resting lightly against his chest as though neither of them had quite figured out what to do next.Arlo seemed to have no intention of moving either.Instead, he lowered his head until it rested gently against her shoulder. For several seconds, she could feel the faint movement of his shoulders."Is something wrong?" she asked."No," Arlo whispered, his voice muffled by her shoulder.He lifted his head slowly, a boyish grin lighting up his eyes. "I'm just really happy right now."Nora looked at him. The angry man who had been shouting about protecting her just minutes ago was gone.Without thinking, she stood on her tiptoes, reaching up to ruffle his messy hair."You're really cute," she murmure
Nora and Her Unexpected Billionaire A confession
The evening had settled quietly over Mae Rim by the time Nora finally left the cottage.She hadn't eaten all day.She hadn't even noticed.There is a saying that "a person who thinks all the time has nothing to think about except thoughts."That was what she was going through now. Her mind had been so consumed with her mother, JJ's warning, and everything else that there had been no room left for something as insignificant as hunger.The evening air in the neighborhood park was nice. She sat on an empty bench. She had been home for nearly an hour, but it felt suffocating."Nora?"She looked up.Arlo stood several feet away, looking casual as usual. He wore a simple, large hoodie and shorts. One hand held the leash of one of his dogs.He's only walking one tonight?"When did you get back?" Nora said, scanning him."A little while ago." He smiled faintly. "I actually came by to say hello, but you weren't around."She nodded."Welcome back," she said softly.Something about her tone made
