In the office, Nora Camp paced back and forth, hands behind her back, looking Harrison Clark up and down like she was appraising a fine piece of meat.
"General Camp, just tell me what's on your mind. There's no need to beat around the bush," Harrison said, feeling uneasy under her gaze.
Nora scoffed, "Why? Don't you know me well? You look as if you're afraid of me."
Shaking his head, Harrison replied, "I'm not afraid, just not quite used to this kind of look."
Last time, despite being released from her suggestion, Nora's early-formed personality remained deeply ingrained and did not fully reveal her true nature.
This time, she was still herself, yet somehow different.
Her eyes were more lively and mischievous, with a touch of playfulness hidden within.
Harrison was moved by this newfound spunk but also found it a little unfamiliar.
Seeing her eagerness now compared to when he first met her, Harrison's mind wavered slightly, and he became more carefree.
