Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 1479

Norah nodded, "Alright, you eat first. I'll ask for a break after I finish eating, then we can leave together."

"Why don't you sit down and join me? If your boss gives you a hard time, I'll have your back." Adrian Chambers gave a warmhearted smile.

"No need; I'll grab a bite later. I need to get busy now!" Norah went to attend to other customers.

She had been working in the shop for a long time, and many regulars knew her, so they all greeted her with smiles. Her face was always lit up with an innocent smile, and she moved around the shop with grace and agility. The black bow in her hair fluttered as she moved, as if it had a life of its own.

When Xavier came out, he saw Adrian sitting by the window, staring at Norah without blinking. The affection in his eyes for her was so obvious; it was the purest form of a teenage crush.

Xavier glanced at Norah, grabbed a pack of cigarettes, and headed towards the kitchen.

After busying himself in the kitchen for a while, Damian came to place an order. He told Xavier, "Oh, by the way, boss, Norah had to leave early this afternoon. She asked me to let you know."

Xavier lifted his head, unconsciously frowning, "She's already left?"

"Yeah, just left!"

"Did she leave with her classmates?"

"How did you know? They have some kind of charity event this afternoon." Damian explained.

Xavier nodded, didn't say anything, and continued to chop vegetables. He scoffed inwardly. Norah's affection was like a child's fleeting interest, shifting quickly from one thing to another after rejection.

For some reason, anger surged in him, and he chopped the vegetables as if they were his enemies.

In the afternoon, when they were not busy, Damian and the others sent off the last customers, tidied up the shop, and started playing cards.
