Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 42

Chapter 42:

After their final performance, Rosy Secret quickly exited the stage, leaving the audience wanting more.

Joanna got up, grabbed Norah’s hand, and started heading backstage. “Come on, Norah, we’re going to their hangout spot. A family friend of mine shared it with me when I frequented Glamour Club,” she said.

Not being very familiar with Glamour Club, Norah followed Joanna toward the band’s resting area.

“I’m sorry, but this area is off-limits to guests,” the security guard said, blocking their way.

“I’m from the Andrews family. Do you really want to stop me?” Joanna replied, her tone laced with entitlement. Facing the security guard’s obstruction, she added, “Do you think I can’t have you removed from your job?”

The guard remained professional. “I’m just doing my duty. Please, ladies, don’t make this difficult.”

Norah’s expression turned serious. “If we can’t enter, could you at least relay a message? Tell the lead of Rosy Secret, Starbear, that I’m waiting for him in the upstairs lounge.”

After delivering the message, Norah led Joanna away.

“Are we just going to leave like that?” Joanna asked, puzzled. “Do you think the security guard will actually relay your message? And will the guitarist come to meet us?”
