Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 5482

As long as the Longbottom family could not control Laurence, the Johnsons would only support Noelle being with him.

The last trace of hesitation in Noelle’s heart disappeared after what just happened. She made up her mind to accept Laurence’s feelings. The two of them would be together openly.

Laurence loved her, and she loved him too.

After everything they had been through together, the feelings they shared, and now that the gap in status between them was no longer an issue, what was there left for her to fear?

She was not even afraid of death. How could she be afraid of standing by his side as his lover?

What helped Noelle reach this decision was Jane’s and Lilian’s words. They told her that when she was taken in and entrusted to take care of Laurence for “the rest of his life,” it held a deeper meaning.

Who else could stay with Laurence for a lifetime?

Only his wife.

Perhaps that was what Doc meant all along.

Noelle thought that if he had not intended that, he would not have taught her so many skills or allowed both her and Laurence to fall in love. On his deathbed, he had even taken her and Laurence's hands and placed them together.

At that time, he had already lost the ability to speak. Back then, Noelle thought that he simply meant for her to protect and care for Laurence for the rest of his life.

For years, she remained constantly at Laurence’s side. They were never apart, and she cared for him in every aspect of life.

Whenever there was danger, she always stepped in front of him. She would rather be injured or even die than allow any harm to come to him.

It was her duty and the promise she made. She was someone who kept her word. Since she made a promise, she would fulfill it.

If Doc had not found and taken her in, she would have died long ago.

Laurence treated her well, and so did everyone else. No one ever regarded her as an outsider.

Although staying beside Laurence was dangerous, Noelle was not scared. She had already accompanied him through countless assassinations. The worst one had left her gravely wounded. That time, Laurence had nearly gone mad.

Fortunately, she was lucky enough to survive. Thanks to his medical skills, he managed to nurse her back to full health.
