Without missing a beat, Sean leaned closer to the camera, his grin nothing short of wicked. Droplets of water rolled down his forehead, trailing over his impossibly handsfeatures. He was quite the charmer.
"Don't worry," he said, his tone rich with amusement. "My data security is airtight. Besides..." He let the corner of his mouth quirk up into a smirk. "If you ever want to video callwhile you're showering, I'd be more than happy to return the favor, Mrs. Scott." Norah's cheeks turned red as she remembered her intimate moment with Sean in the hot spring before his proposal the day before. "Hey, we're not married yet, so why are you callingMrs. Scott?" "You've already accepted my proposal, so you are the soon-to-be Mrs. Scott." Stepping back, Sean stood under the shower, letting the water wash the soap from his skin.
Norah shifted the conversation. "Let's not discuss that now. How about we delay the dinner a few days? I think my mom would like to join us." "No problem." After turning off the shower, Sean grabbed a towel from the rack to dry off and then used another to pat down his hair, his phone in his other hand as he left the bathroom.

"There's no one else home, so I can wear whatever I like." His straightforward manner made Norah chuckle, feeling a warmth between them that deepened their bond.
Sean chuckled. "Something funny happened when I got home. I was going to talk to my family about the proposal and suggest a meal with your family. But as soon as I walked in, my dad handedmy identification documents." He laughed as he finished drying his hair. "He said we should head to City Hall tomorrow and register our marriage." Norah laughed out loud.
Were his parents really that eager? Was there really such a rush for Sean to marry her? "My dad was half-joking," he added, looking intently at her through the phone screen. "But I do want to know when we could go register our marriage." Norah shifted, propping up her phone. "Well, let's find a twhen we're both free."
Since Sean had proposed successfully, there was ere was no reason to delay their marriage. Norah was ready to bechis wife.
After a brief pause, Sean's face lit up with joy. "Great, I'll have my assistant find a twhen we're both free to register du marriage!" Recently, everything had been going smoothly; life felt surreal to Sean, almost dreamlike.
"Okay, just letknow when the date is set. I'm swamped at them hospital, and won't always be available. Be good, and try not to be upset."
