Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 11:

As they prepared to depart, Joanna’s phone rang with a call from Kason, which immediately altered her demeanor. She glanced at Norah, unsure of how to explain.

“Joanna, is everything okay?”

Joanna’s reaction caught both Bryson’s and Norah’s attention.

“Who’s on the phone?” Bryson asked.

Joanna moved closer to Norah and quietly said, “Kason is on the line. He mentioned Mr. Scott is looking for the Supernatural Doctor. They’ve taken Kason into custody and need to know if he can reveal your identity to them.”

Norah’s interest was piqued. “It’s curious that after two years away, I’m still sought after. Inform him that if Mr. Scott takes first place in the Krusa Mountain Racing in five days, I’ll agree to meet with him.”

Norah planned to attend the Krusa Mountain Racing, aware that Nocturne would also be there. She was curious to see Scott’s performance.

“Norah, that’s impressive,” Joanna commented, applauding her decision.

Bryson watched their quiet conversation with a puzzled expression. He narrowed his eyes and asked, “What are you two talking about behind my back?”

After a brief conversation on the phone, Joanna ended the call, looked up innocently, and said, “Oh, it’s just some women’s talk. What’s got you so intrigued?”

Joanna leaned on Norah’s shoulder and suggested, “Norah, why not stay at my new place? Now that you’ve moved out, and without a place to stay, tomorrow I’ll show you the villas I own. You can pick whichever one you like.” Bryson chimed in, “I have a few properties myself. Norah, feel free to choose any.”

Norah mischievously smiled and said, “Why would I be homeless? I might lack many things, but houses aren’t one of them. Bryson, please drop me off at Dreamview Villas.”
