Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 153:

Kathy glanced at Norah with disdain and remarked, “Norah was married to my brother for two years, yet she couldn’t even conceive. Moreover, she engaged in inappropriate relationships. It became unbearable for my brother, leading to their divorce. However, post-divorce, she blackmailed us and seized our property. Truly despicable!”

Kathy’s and Sharon’s performance triggered whispers and pointing from onlookers. Oblivious to the truth, they bought Kathy’s and Sharon’s words and assumed that Norah’s motive for divorce was to secure the Carter family’s wealth. Norah’s marriage to Derek, in his vegetative state, confirmed the onlookers’ assumption that Norah’s greed for the Carter family’s property was the driving force behind the divorce.

The Wilson family’s tactics seemed ruthless, making Norah marry a man in a vegetative state just to claim his wealth.

“I noticed Norah flashing a flirtatious smile at you when I entered,” Sharon added, “Hence the reminder. Please, don’t let it distract you. Norah has a way with sweet talk. Don’t be fooled by her charms.”

Sharon said this with feigned sincerity. Emil refrained from expressing his true intentions. He simply desired intimacy with Norah due to her beauty, indifferent to her past or future. All he sought was a fleeting moment of happiness.

“Oh, thank you, Mrs. Carter,” Emil replied.

“However, Miss Wilson, you are a delightful person,” Emil said, his tone smooth. “We aim to befriend you, and you need not concern yourself. Miss Wilson, shall we move over there for a chat?” Emil extended another invitation to Norah, who accepted it without hesitation.

Surrounded by Emil and Kalel, she proceeded toward the sofa, ignoring the evident frustration of Sharon and Kathy. Norah walked past Kathy and Sharon with an air of superiority. “I had warned you not to provoke me again last time,” she said.

Norah’s indifferent demeanor, along with her cold smile, inexplicably unsettled the two. Sharon felt a pang of anger so intense that it hurt. “Norah doesn’t even bother pretending to be cordial. She openly flirts with men in front of us!” she exclaimed.
