Chapter 10:

Norah was cautious about the gun but reassured Joanna, “It’s fine. The door of the Glamour Club is tough. Let’s wait for help to arrive.” She had previously reached out to the Andrews family for assistance. Given their protective stance toward her, she was confident help would arrive soon.

Norah was confident that as long as the Scott and Hayes families were present, they would be safe, no matter what was happening outside. Joanna was the only one who seemed worried.

Norah took her time with her drink, making efforts to soothe Joanna. As her friend, Norah felt the need to protect and comfort her.

Joanna, drawing comfort from Norah’s composed demeanor, eventually relaxed, saying, “Alright.” The noise outside eventually died down, followed by another knock at the door.

“Is Miss Andrews here? I’m a bodyguard from the Scott family. It’s safe now. You can come out now.”

Joanna looked at Norah and asked, “Norah, should we answer it?”

After listening attentively, Norah said, “Just open it. Don’t worry. As a lady of the Andrews family, you should show some confidence.”

Joanna chuckled, regaining her usual self-assurance.
