Her expression instantly changed to one of shock and disbelief. She stammered, "L.. Lo.. Logan, is that not him? Oliver Storm?"Logan chuckled and nodded playfully, saying, "Yes, that's him. He's looking so handsome, right?"Nora's confusion persisted, and she questioned Logan, "Wait, are you with him? Why didn't you tell me you and him were in New York? Oh God, it means he heard what I said over the phone when you were coming."Logan playfully teased, "Yes, he did. Oh, are you shy now?"Nora's face turned slightly red as she retorted, "I'll kill you, babe, I'll punish you." She then took a deep breath and slowly walked towards Oliver."Hello, Mr. Storm.
