Chapter 610: Noah’s Farewell Party
Finnian Lawrence returned to the hotel, standing on the chilly balcony, replaying his conversation with Jasper Sinclair in his mind.
When did he start having feelings for Lily Sloan?
Recalling the past events, to be honest, he couldn’t quite remember.
The other side of the hotel.
Noah formally resigned to Nora Northwood, and Jasper Sinclair used the excuse of work to avoid their conversation.
Noah’s reason was simple: he wanted to stay and develop in his hometown.
His family originally belonged to a middle-class family and didn’t need to move far away for a living, even if he never worked a day in his life, he would still have no worries about food and clothing.
Nora expressed understanding and agreed to his resignation, added, "While we’re all still in Paris, let’s hold a farewell party for you."
"Thank you, Nora. Even as I’m leaving, you’re still putting in effort for me."
"Look at what you’re saying, after working together, I see you as both colleagues and friends. And besides, you were personally recruited by me into VK."
After Noah left, Nora was left alone sitting in front of the sofa, her heels together at the edge of the sofa, embraced by her arms.
From behind, she seemed somewhat lonely.
Noah and Andrea Miller were the first batch of perfumers she recruited into VK.
Now, with both of them leaving, there’s an inexplicable feeling in her heart.
That night.
Nora asked Cillian to find a suitable place for a party, preparing to host a small farewell party for Noah.
The efficiency of Jasper Sinclair’s team could be described as exceptional.
In just over an hour, they found a perfect location for them.
Located in the 17th district of Paris, a short-term rental villa.
They sang karaoke and played board games during the day, and barbecued on the indoor balcony at night. Nora said regretfully, "If it were summer, we could use the lawn outside."
"If you like, we can come back again in the summer."
Jasper Sinclair sat next to her, handing her a slightly charred lamb chop.
The man wasn’t there during the day, and he and Finnian Lawrence had just arrived not long ago.
Lily suggested opening a bottle of wine, but having barbecue with white wine was really disharmonious.
The first to drink wine were the first to get drunk.
Once Lily drank too much, she liked to laugh, with a gentle smile inherent to young girls.
Laughing, she rested her arm lightly on Finnian Lawrence’s arm, with a certain emotion.
"Finnian Lawrence..."
She rarely addressed him by his full name; mostly, it was business-like as Manager Lawrence, and in private, she would mimic Nora and call him Brother Finnian.
By candlelight, Finnian Lawrence waited for what she would say next.
The young girl’s eyes glimmered, seemingly holding on to the last bit of reason, hence, she didn’t break the unspoken barrier.
Finnian Lawrence couldn’t describe his emotions, whether it was loneliness or something else.
Later, he drank a lot of wine too.
For a moment, he thought of doing something reckless under the influence of alcohol, but in the end, he held back.
One by one, people got drunk, and everyone chose to stay the night at the villa.
In the night, Nora interestingly discussed Lily Sloan with the person lying beside her.
"Do you think they stand a chance?"
The person beside her pondered and said, "The Lawrence Family is no small household, and as I expected, they’re already arranging blind dates for him."
With just a few words, people fell from sweetness into reality.
Nora had overlooked this matter; Lily in Stanton City comes from a well-off family but still far from the Lawrence Family’s standing.
Finnian Lawrence, being part of such a family, likely has many decisions made beyond his control.
No wonder the two have yet to confirm their relationship... Realizing this, Nora felt heartbroken for her friend.
