Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 33:

Norah left the Oceanic Treat Cafe, her face a mask of cold detachment. She had hoped for updates on her ongoing divorce during her meeting with Derek today, but instead, she was left dealing with his and Madeline’s nonsense, which was nothing short of disappointing.

The relentless sun scorched the earth, sending waves of heat shimmering through the air.

As Norah was about to step into her vehicle, she spotted a sleek, black luxury car parked along the roadside. The driver, dressed in black, caught sight of Norah and respectfully called out, “Miss Wilson.”

With her expression unchanged, Norah approached and swung the car door open. Settling into the back seat, she asked coldly, “How’s the investigation going?”

The driver carefully shut the door and reported, “Miss Wilson, after learning about your situation, Mr. and Mrs. Wilson headed for Platridge Mountain. They took the Mercedes from the garage, leaving under the cover of night.”

“Is there more?”

The driver, visibly anxious, added, “Details are secretive, and the information on the car involved in the incident remains unknown. That’s all the information available at the moment.”

Norah’s gaze fell, her fingers idly tapping. “What about my family?”

“They’re at home, with no significant movements to report.”

Norah issued her orders firmly, “Have Gilda and Chayce monitor my uncle’s family closely and press on with the incident investigation.”

“Any word on Sacredice?” Norah asked, her voice steady but urgent. The driver hesitated before answering, “We’ve yet to establish contact with Sacredice.”
