Chapter 715:
The revelation about his girlfriend caught Lola off guard, but she quickly concluded that his girlfriend likely
couldn't compare to her. “She’s welcto join us if she'd like. Since it’s your first visit to Silverdale, letbuy
you a drink. We're partners, and I'd appreciate the opportunity to get to know you better,” she subtly hinted at
the possibility of cooperation.
Sean shook his head and replied, “I'll call her and see if she’s up for it. | don’t want to do anything she might not
like.” Sean dialed Norah's number, thinking she might be interested in going out tonight. Norah's days were
usually routine, and her social life had been minimal, except for a charity dinner she had attended with him a
few days ago.

After Sean explained the situation to Norah, she agreed immediately.
A successful businesswoman had invited her boyfriend out for drinks; of course, she would show up.
Lola chuckled and said, “You're so in love with your girlfriend. Would you refuseif she says no?”
The elevator arrived with a ‘ding,” and the doors swung open. They entered, and Sean pressed the button for the
ground floor.
“I won't do anything that would upset my girlfriend,” he added.
Lola stood in the elevator with Sean, her heart racing faster than usual. She was certain she had found the man
of her dreams. His scent was intoxicating, making her feel both safe and drawn to him.
However, his eyes sparkled whenever he spoke of his girlfriend. Their bond seemed unbreakable.

Lola narrowed her eyes. She wasn’t one to easily give up. He was the perfect match for her, and she yearned to
be with him.
As the elevator descended, it suddenly jerked to a halt, and the lights began to flicker.
Lola started to panic.

Sean pressed the emergency button, then moved to stand near the back, close to the wall, and waited for
assistance. “Ms. Quinn, chere. Stay away from the doors,” he instructed calmly, helping to soothe her
nerves.
“Will someone cto rescue us?” she asked anxiously.
Just as she finished her question, the elevator began to drop. Lola screamed loudly.
The shrill whine of Lola’s voice ricocheted off the elevator walls. Sean winced, the sound grating on his nerves.
The sudden jolt of the elevator as it ground to a halt mirrored Lola’s scream, cutting it short with a startled gasp.
She shuffled hesitantly toward Sean, her hand reaching out to clutch his arm.
