Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 43:

After asking some questions about the connection between Rosy Secret and Norah, Joanna finally got the picture of the situation.

“So, they claimed your song and lyrics as their own creation? Damn, how dare they!” Joanna, visibly upset, blurted out. “Norah, how did you keep yourself from confronting them physically?”

Norah gave Joanna a look and said, “Getting physical can’t change anything. Rest assured, they’ll soon learn their lesson.”

Joanna nodded, sensing that Norah’s tolerance was only reserved for Derek. Norah’s attitude toward others’ wrongdoings fluctuated with her mood—lenient on good days, unforgiving on bad ones.

“Come on, I’ll walk you out.” Supporting Joanna, Norah descended the stairs just as Derek, Kathy, and Madeline started to walk their way out of the Glamour Club. Norah and Joanna continued, unaware of Derek and his group trailing behind them.

Kathy, noticing Norah and Joanna in front of them, pointed out, “Isn’t that Norah? Norah and Joanna, right? Are they here to enjoy themselves at Glamour Club?”

Madeline’s eyes darkened, schemes forming in her mind. “Miss Wilson deserves some relaxation, given she seldom got out much when she looked after Derek.”

Kathy, oblivious to Madeline’s changing expression, added, “So, she’s here scouting for a man? That must be the reason she’d come to Glamour Club.”

With a calculating look, Kathy stepped forward and yelled, “Hey, Norah!”

Norah stopped but didn’t turn around. She continued toward the exit.

Kathy persisted, “Norah, I’m speaking to you, don’t you hear me?”
