Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 89:

Aaron, flashing Norah’s card on the POS machine, said to the salesperson, “Pack up that gown for Norah. Since you said so, I won’t be the one to rain on your parade.”

Norah, lounging on the sofa, responded, “It’s okay. It’s not like you own this place.”
