Chapter 413: Chapter 247: After Revealing My Identity, My Friends’ and Family’s Phones Exploded
"What does blind passion bring? Life isn’t a hot-blooded manga. It’s important to consider the consequences before making a choice."
"Mm."
Pedro Langley took her cigarette butt, extinguished it on the stone railing, and threw it into the trash can.
No need to reason with her.
She already knew.
She just suddenly remembered the matter and was feeling upset.
"That’s all."
After speaking, Nora Scott felt much calmer.
Pedro Langley took her hand, "Feeling better?"
"Mm."
Nora Scott slowly exhaled.
She tilted her head, "Knowing passion can’t fill your stomach, why do so many people still rush forward?"
"Perhaps passion is more important than life." Pedro Langley lowered his gaze, a slight smile on his lips, "Some people live their whole lives not knowing what they want."
Nora Scott shrugged.
She was noncommittal.
Either way, it’s a lifetime. Being mediocre and content is a lifetime; advancing bravely and working hard is a lifetime; living with clear purpose and earnestness is a lifetime; being free and easy, carefree and joyful is also a lifetime...
Because of so many choices, diverse lives are created.
"Easton once said he used to not understand why Evelyn Easton persisted with Mechanical Techniques. Clearly lacking talent, it’s wise to quit early and cut losses. People like Evelyn, so stubborn, are just making life hard for themselves."
"But then, Easton finally said, thinking back, it’s not bad for Evelyn Easton to be this way. He had seen many people live in miserable states, never putting in effort, never being serious, never having passion, not even truly living, just muddling through life. Sometimes he wonders, what’s the point of living like that for a lifetime?"
"So no matter what I want to do, he never stopped me. He always said, once you’re sure, just do it."
...
Nora Scott spoke in a low voice.
Every time she mentioned Antonio Easton, she seemed very calm, but in Pedro Langley’s eyes, every move, every word, made his heart ache.
But before Pedro Langley could say anything, Nora Scott stopped, "Forget it, there’s no point discussing things with no outcome."
At this point, Nora Scott suddenly lifted her eyes, laughing lightly.
She wanted to head to the living room, but before she could take a step, her phone vibrated.
She picked it up, walked to the side, and answered the call.
"Yeah, I’ll come over tomorrow. ... No, your cooking is not as good as mine, just make do with something simple. ... I won’t stay long, just a few days. ... Got it, see you tomorrow."
With just a few words, Nora Scott hung up the call.
Putting away her phone, Nora Scott looked at Pedro Langley and asked, "Your mom’s birthday is at the end of the month, right?"
"Mm."
Nora Scott nodded, "Then it’s in time."
"What?"
Pedro Langley was slightly taken aback.
Raising her eyebrow, Nora Scott smiled lightly, "Didn’t I promise you, your mom’s birthday gift this year is on me?"
Pedro Langley: "..."
He had already forgotten.
That day when Nora Scott gave him the mechanical drone, she accidentally heard about Aaron Scott, Evelyn Easton, and Antonio Easton’s matters. Later, he used some news from the Scott family to tease her, resulting in her promising to help him prepare a birthday gift for Flora Loughton.
"You’re going to Yangel just to get the birthday gift?" Pedro Langley asked.
The next day, the two were leaving Anchel together.
However, Nora Scott was going to Yangel, while Pedro Langley was heading to Fenton City.
They would be apart for a few days.
They weren’t always glued together, but Pedro Langley assumed Nora Scott was going to Yangel for something important; he hadn’t expected ...
"Mm."
Slightly frowning, Pedro Langley asked again, "Is it something that can’t be mailed?"
"It can..." Nora Scott paused, gave a playful smile, "but are you sure you want to mail Julian Linfield’s bamboo flute?"
Pedro Langley was slightly stunned, a hint of surprise flashing across.
"You mentioned before, your mom wanted Julian Linfield to make a bamboo flute, but he didn’t agree."
Pedro Langley remembered.
At that time, he and Nora Scott had just gotten together, talking about Flora Loughton’s birthday. The whole family found it most troublesome to buy gifts for her because she was picky; if it wasn’t satisfactory, she’d feel you didn’t put your heart into it. She wouldn’t scold you, but she’d throw a tantrum.
That year’s birthday gift for Flora Loughton was chosen by Pedro Langley and Nora Scott together.
While choosing, Pedro Langley carelessly mentioned to Nora Scott about Flora Loughton being rejected by Julian Linfield for a bamboo flute.
Unexpectedly...
She still remembered.
"Nora."
Pedro Langley pulled her into his arms.
"Mm?"
Nora Scott naturally embraced him, slightly lifting her gaze, her eyes full of his face.
Having her gaze upon him melted his heart; Pedro Langley’s voice was low and rich, "Do you know how much you like me?"
Nora Scott immediately frowned, "You..."
