Chapter 380 Nora&##x27;s Star-Crossed Love

Rose told Bright about Patriarch Way's preference. Although it was not difficult for Bright to know about
it, they only had a week and might be unable to prepare the gift in time.

After she ended the call with Nora, Rose's emotions were affected. Bright also noticed it.

"What's wrong? You put on a long face. Did something happen between you and Nora?" Bright was
attentive.

"Is it that obvious?" Rose instinctively reached out and touched her face.

"Tell me about it." Bright took her gently into his arms. They leaned against the bed.

Rose rested her head on his shoulder. They were covered in the same quilt. Rose felt safe and happy
in his arms.

"When I was a sophomore in high school, my parents hired a new private piano teacher for me. His
name was Oscar. He was young, gentle and modest, well-spoken, and perfect.

One day, Nora came to see me and met Oscar. She fell in love with him at first sight. You know, Nora
was always outgoing and bold. She took the initiative to pursue Oscar.

Oscar, however, decisively rejected her. Nora was sad. Although she felt hurt, she did not give up and
persisted for two years. At that time, Nora was nineteen years old.

One day, Oscar was knocked unconscious by someone in retaliation and taken away. Nora happened
to see it and followed them all the way regardless of the danger. However, she was already found by
these people and was also kidnapped by them.

When Oscar woke up, he saw that Nora was tied up there. He calmly said to the man who kidnapped
him that he could do anything as long as they let Nora go. But Nora was adamant that she would not



leave.

The man said that Oscar had cuckolded him and that he would not let anyone go. But the fact was that
his wife carried a torch for Oscar and even seduced him. Oscar was not moved by her at all. But he
was misunderstood.

The man let go of Oscar to have a fight with him. He said that as long as Oscar hit back, he would hit
Nora. So, for Nora, Oscar naturally did not fight back. Nora cried, desperately begging the man not to
hit Oscar.

Oscar was beaten down. But the man still did not let him go. Nora tried her best to break away from the
people guarding her and ran forward to protect Oscar, blocking the hit from the man with her body for
Oscar.

Nora stared at the man with a murderous look. At that time, she looked awesome.

The man was shocked by her eyes. Anyway, he had vented his anger and did not want to kill people.
So, he let them go.

Nora then informed me. They were taken to the hospital. As Oscar was injured badly and almost died,
Nora looked after him for three days. Fortunately, Oscar woke up.

After this incident, they naturally got together.

But the Cooper family was wealthy and Nora was the only daughter of it. So, they naturally loved her
very much. Oscar was just an ordinary people. There was a big gap in their identities. Nora could not
control her marriage. So, when their love was found by Nora's parents, they had a hard time... But they
had pulled through.



Until... that fire. Oscar was trapped in it and burned to ashes. Then, they were finally separated. Nora
and I watched the fire burning and even reddening the sky. It was a bad day. The wind fueled the fire.
Nora collapsed and fainted.

She could not accept such a reality. She tried to commit suicide, but was saved. After a long period of
isolation, she finally accepted the cruel reality. Then, she was forced to marry a man for her family.

When this news came out, there were many famous men who wanted to marry her. She finally chose
Alan, who was also young and fun-loving. They hit it off. They agreed to be a couple in public, but did
not interfere with each other in private, and lived peacefully for five years.

Nora hadn't changed in the past five years. She will still dream about Oscar. Last time we went back to
the restaurant by the school together, she mistook someone else for Oscar."

Rose came back to reality from her memory and looked up to meet Bright's eyes. Her eyes were
already red.

"Do you know? I am afraid she'd stay like this. I want her to be happy. But she said the one who could
give her happiness was dead and she could never be happy again.

Back then, I had thought I would live out my life alone with Doris. But Gods favored me and let you
appear in my life... Now that I am happy, I want Nora to find her own happiness as I did."

Bright raised his hand and cupped her face, "Now you know how lucky you are to have me."

"In fact, I've always thought I am so lucky to have you." Rose's eyes were full of affection, "Thank you
for not giving up on me. I'm really lucky to have met you."

"Then share your good fortune with Nora. She'll be happy too." Bright lowered his head and kissed her
on the brow with affection.



Rose wrapped her arms around Bright's waist and took her happiness into her hands.

A week passed quickly in the busy work. Today was Patriarch Way's eightieth birthday.

All of the Way family's business partners, friends, and relatives came to the party. This time, the Way
family spent a lot on the birthday banquet, showing the status and power of the family.

The Way family held the banquet in the idyllic new villa in Babyblue Bay. The huge lawn was beautiful
and solemn, simple but exquisite.

At the banquet, everyone was well dressed and jeweled.

The handsome Bright was wearing a white shirt and dark blue suit with a dark sparkle like starlight. He
looked mature and stable, and was in high and vigorous spirits. He came with Rose.

Rose was wearing a dark blue gradual change skirt, which outlined her perfect figure, dreamy,
beautiful, elegant... She was so stunning like the goddess of the starry night.

Bright and Rose were wearing couple dress and were a perfect match.

When they appeared, they instantly became the focus, attracting countless admiring eyes.

Many people were guessing and whispering about the relationship between Bright and Rose.

And Palmer Way, Patriarch Way's eldest son, went to greet them personally, showing great respect.

They walked to Patriarch Way calmly under the gaze of thousands of people.

Patriarch Way was surrounded by many people, including Nora and Alan.

Nora and Rose exchanged a glance.



Bright brought a gift to Patriarch Way, "Patriarch Way, this is for you. My wife and I wish you a long and
prosperous life."

"Thank you, Mr. Bright." Patriarch Way took the gift.

"Why don't you open it to see if you like it, Patriarch Way?"

The gift was packed in a rectangular top-quality brocade box, which was lightly fragrant.

Patriarch Way opened the box. There was a scroll inside. He took it out, Palmer and Annette Way, his
sister, unfolded the scroll. It was the real handwriting of the famous calligrapher of the Tang Dynasty.

Patriarch Way was amazed when he saw it. It was exactly the masterpiece he had been looking for
before. He didn't expect Bright to give him such a good birthday gift that made him burst with joy.

"Mr. Bright, thank you. Then I will accept it."

"I am glad that Patriarch Way likes it."

Just as Patriarch Way accepted the gift, there was a hubbub.
