Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 126

Chapter 126:

Like It’s Norah

Derek’s sprawling villa was quiet.

“Madeline, how many times do I have to tell you? Don’t toss your clothes around like confetti.” Derek sighed as he wrapped up his tasks. He pushed open the bedroom door and was greeted by a bed drowning in a sea of clothes.

Madeline, wearing a delicate white nightdress, lounged on the bed, idly kicking her feet up and scrolling through her phone.

At the sound of Derek’s disapproving tone, she turned her head with a frown. “Derek, I got back late today and didn’t have the energy to tidy up. The servants will handle them when they come tomorrow.”

Setting her phone aside, Madeline turned around, revealing a generous amount of cleavage. “You know you dismissed all the household staff, right? They’ll be here tomorrow, but for now, we’re snug as bugs in a rug. So why worry about these clothes?”

Getting off the bed, she sauntered over to Derek, hooked her arms around his neck, and planted a kiss, her breath warm against his skin. “Derek, am I right?”

Derek wrapped his arms around her shoulders, returning the kiss. He didn’t say anything but thought of Norah.

He never cared much for having servants. They always seemed to be around when he wasn’t there. After Norah, she had taken charge of everything at home.
