Fated to Love You Again (Shawn and Norah)
Chapter 173 Make it Up

Chapter 173 Make it Up

Norah stepped back and replied, "It's just a coincidence."

"A coincidence?" James sneered. "Do you think I'll believe that?"

"You deliberately ran into me at the cafe, deliberately fell down when I walked in, and even stared at me while I was drinking. Do you think these are just coincidences?"

"Do you think I'm stupid or something?"

Norah was stunned by his accusations.

Those were all coincidences, but after his interpretation, they became something else entirely.

"Dean Broser, you really misunderstand. I never intended to catch your attention." Norah insisted on explaining.

"I don't believe you," James said coldly, his sharp eyes fixed on her.

Norah waved her hand and said casually, "Fine, since you don't believe me, I won't say anything else."

Continuing the conversation would only make things worse.

When James wasn't paying attention, Norah lowered her head and deftly slipped out from under his arm.

She left decisively without even looking back.

James watched her leave and sneered. "What a clever cat and mouse game."

Unfortunately, he wasn't falling for it.

Norah left James and walked into the private room. The first time she came in, she remembered that it was the private room on the left, so she pushed open the one on the left this time. However, when she opened the door and saw the people inside, Norah was immediately stunned.

She had gone into the wrong room!

This private room was not the one she was supposed to be dining in. There were many people inside, and it was noisy with people singing, playing games, and talking. In short, it was extremely lively. Although the light in the private room was dim and there were many people, Norah saw Shawn at a glance.

He was lazily leaning on the sofa, his legs lightly crossed. Although he appeared very casual, his noble and elegant aura could not be concealed no matter what.

Norah looked at his position. He was in the middle of the room.

Without even thinking, she knew he the focus of attention, being respected and admired by everyone.

When someone broke in, especially a beautiful and gentle-looking strange girl, the entire private room fell silent.

At that moment, almost everyone in the room looked at Norah.

Norah raised her head and immediately saw Shawn.

However, his gaze was too cold and calm, like a still pond with no ripples.

He was very composed.

Almost cruelly composed.

Norah lowered her eyes, and her long eyelashes covered her eyes like a fan, concealing the disappointment and sadness in her eyes in an instant. Since he pretended not to know her and treated her as a stranger, why should she speak up?

It didn't matter.

They were already divorced. In strict terms, they were indeed strangers.

Therefore, he did the right thing, and she had no reason to be upset.

However, she did not expect him to be so calm.

"Sorry, I went into the wrong room."

After speaking, Norah immediately turned around to leave.

At that moment, a voice came from behind her. "Doll, our private room has strict rules. You can't just come in and out as you please."

After that, a man wearing a blue shirt got up from the sofa. He had a handsome face, but his words were full of danger.

"I didn't mean to barge in. I just accidentally walked into the wrong room. My private room is right across from yours," Norah explained. However, the man didn't listen to her explanation.

He took a step forward, and his tall figure stopped in front of Norah. He opened his thin lips and said, "Doll, I don't care about that. I'm not interested in the process. I only care about the result."

"The result is that you walked into the wrong room, so you must agree to my conditions before you can leave. Otherwise, I'll be embarrassed. Look, I even invited a VIP to my private room today. You've startled my guest. So you must make amends and apologize before you can leave."

Norah raised her head and looked at Shawn.

The man's "VIP" was undoubtedly Shawn.

However, Shawn had already treated her as a stranger, so she didn't have to ask him for help.

Moreover, this man had already made things difficult for her, and Shawn was just listening and watching as if it had nothing to do with him. He even maintained the same posture without moving at all. Therefore, even if she spoke up and begged him, what difference would it make?

It would only be humiliating for herself, and he wouldn't help her anyway.

Otherwise, he wouldn't just stand by and watch this man bully her.

Lowering her eyes, Norah asked, "How should I apologize?"

Xander smiled and snapped his fingers. "Bring it over."

Soon, a glass of white wine was placed in front of Norah.

Norah's heart skipped a beat. She knew that there was no other way now except to drink the wine. Although she was a little scared, she reached out to take the glass.

Just as she was about to raise the glass to drink, Xander suddenly stopped her. "Wait a minute."

Norah looked at him in confusion.

"Of course, that's not the only way," Xander said suddenly.

"What other way?"

"I just said that you disturbed my VIP. If you're willing to go up and kiss him or find some other way to get his forgiveness, I can..." In that case, Xander could forgive her. Before Xander could finish his sentence, Norah refused him directly. "No need. I choose to drink."

With that, she didn't hesitate and drank the entire glass of white wine in one go.

When Shawn moved to sit up and stop her, it was already too late.

He didn't expect that she would rather drink such a large glass of white wine than kiss him.

It was ironic.

"Norah, do you hate me so much now?" When he thought about this possibility, Shawn felt a sense of sorrow in his heart.

When did the relationship between him and her become like this?

After drinking the wine, Norah's throat felt like it was being roasted by fire, hot and painful.

Her entire digestive system was burning, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.

Her head was very dizzy.

Xander knew he had caused trouble and looked at Shawn worriedly, asking him what the next step should be.

At this moment, Norah put down the glass heavily and looked up at Xander. "I've drunk the wine. Can I leave now?"

Throughout the whole process, she didn't even glance at Shawn.

He was just a stranger, so why bother looking at him?

"You can go!" Xander waved his hand helplessly.

Norah felt as if a huge weight had been lifted off her shoulders and immediately clutched her stomach, fleeing the room like a scared rabbit.

As soon as Norah left, there was suddenly a loud noise in the room.

Shawn stood up and kicked over the tea table in front of him. The loud noise startled everyone, and the room suddenly fell silent.

Everyone stood in their place, staring blankly. No one dared to move and held their breath.

"Get out of here, all of you!"

Instantly, the people in the room breathed a sigh of relief and quickly left.

Soon, the room was quiet again with only Shawn and Xander left.

Xander sighed and could see that Shawn was in a bad mood, so he took the initiative to approach him. "Shawn, in my opinion, if you want to make up with Norah, just apologize and buy her some jewelry. Which woman doesn't love jewelry? If that doesn't work, just make it up to her in bed. I guarantee she'll forgive you."

"You have to believe that women are all softhearted. You two just quarreled. Sleeping together is the best way to reconcile."
