The revived Nora no longer desired the love of the man she once devoted herself to. Her goal now was to rise above and seek revenge on those who wronged and took her life, proving their earlier judgment false, even in death. Determined, she declared, "I'll repay every slight tenfold!" This time, she chose not to chase after her erstwhile hero; her sister could keep him. Instead, she aimed for wealth.
Sylvanus McCoy, accustomed to living a life of perfection, found himself inexplicably drawn to a woman whose very existence seemed to be a series of errors. Intrigued, he attempted to teach her about romance, frowning when she didn't respond to his initial kiss. "I'm schooling you in love," he said, unaware of the unexpected stir in his heart.
In retaliation, she playfully taunted, "Oh, teach me how to seize control of your empire instead." Despite the anger simmering within her, she couldn't deny the unfamiliar flutter in her chest.
With a calculated move, he countered, "Ah, well, it's quite simple. Marry me, and the empire becomes yours."
She paused, considering the proposition, her thoughts swirling with a mix of anger, curiosity, and perhaps a hint of surprise.
