The backyard was deserted, which took Norah by surprise. She turned around and headed upstairs.
On the second floor, Norah walked up to Xavier's room and saw Luisa lying on his bed, her back turned to the door. Her bare waist was showing, and her seductive pose caught Norah off guard.
"What the hell, Luisa!" Norah exclaimed, startled by what she saw.
Luisa jumped up from the bed, dropping whatever she was holding.
It was the marigold flowers Norah had planted. Two blossoms had just opened, and Luisa had picked them.
"Are you kidding me? You even picked my flowers!" Norah yelled, picking up the flowers in anger.
All Luisa did was dodge her gaze and head for the door without uttering a word.
“Hold it right there!”
Norah chased her all the way to the living room, catching Luisa by the arm and saying, "Don't you dare walk away from me!"
"What's going on?" Xavier emerged from the bathroom, frowning at the two of them.
"Xavier, were you in the room? What were you doing with Luisa?" Norah was in disbelief.
"Norah, don't jump to conclusions!" Xavier's face fell.
"I was just bringing Mr. Flemmings some soda," Luisa defended herself with an innocent look.
"Soda? And that requires lying on his bed?" Norah scoffed.
"I sprained my ankle on the stairs, and I sat on your bed for a bit. I'm sorry; I'll be more careful next time," Luisa apologized, looking at Xavier.
Xavier, not wanting to cause a misunderstanding, scolded Norah, "Don't blow this out of proportion!"
She swallowed her anger and stared at the crying Luisa, saying, "I put a lot of effort into growing these flowers. You said it was unintentional; does that make it okay? From now on, you're not allowed in the barbecue shop, the backyard, or upstairs!"
Zachary stared at Norah in shock and asked, "Norah, why are you so angry?"
"Come on, Norah! It's just two flowers! Are they really worth all this fuss?" Xavier said, pulling her arm.
"That's so not cool!" Norah said angrily, "Do you know how much I spent on that bunch? Can she afford to pay for it? Either way, I won't let her come to the barbecue shop anymore."
Luisa was crying on Zachary’s shoulder.
Zachary looked at Norah, trying to resolve the situation, and said, "Norah, I can compensate you. Can we stop upsetting Luisa?"
"No need for compensation; you guys just leave!" Xavier pulled Norah by the arm and headed inside.
Norah shot a cold glare at Luisa before being ushered into Xavier's room.
