Chapter 156:

Norah cast her gaze downward, masking any emotions behind a simple “Fine by me.” Observing Shayla with her parents, Norah felt a sense of relief and quickly maneuvered past the group. Luna had forged her own path, and Norah recognized she had no right to intervene, even for Shayla’s sake.

Just as the group was about to depart, Emil and Kalel emerged from the opposite direction.

“Luna is far too modest. It’s a shame she doesn’t possess allure. Otherwise, with a suggestion from us, she’d be on her knees, eagerly flattering us,” Kalel commented.

Emil teased, “Quite interesting, isn’t it? They’re sisters, yet Norah is strikingly more beautiful. It’s almost irresistible.”

Kalel’s eyes glinted with resolve. “Once you’ve ensnared her, you’ll see things differently. Follow my instructions and intercept her after the banquet.”

Upon catching sight of Norah, attendees couldn’t help but admire her beauty, casting appreciative glances in her direction. Her beauty was undeniable, drawing all the attention in the banquet hall and radiating brilliance.

“Derek, see, Norah is over there,” Kathy’s fingers pointed to the woman standing casually by the table, elegantly holding a champagne glass and exuding a relaxed charm. Two stylishly dressed young men were engaged in conversation with her.

Curious about Norah’s newfound acquaintances, Derek gestured toward them. “When did Norah become acquainted with Mr. Palmer and Mr. Payne?”
