Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 265:

Lying on his bed, Kason stared up at the ceiling, lost in thought. When he found out that the Fox Alliance had taken Norah away, he and his men set out to chase them. But he learned that Norah had already left with Sean. He wondered if he had been too late even then.

Love works in mysterious ways, and timing isn’t always key. Kason had met Norah before Sean ever did, but that didn’t seem to matter. He was the one who had taken her to the orphanage, marking the end of their first meeting. Yet, hearing news about Norah always caused a sharp ache in his chest. It was as though someone was squeezing it tightly, and the pain was nearly unbearable.

Clutching his chest, he struggled to breathe as memories of Norah flooded his mind. Kason couldn’t help but question whether he had missed his chance with her. He compared himself to Sean, acknowledging that Sean was younger, more capable, and in a better position in life. He had to accept that Norah had made the right choice in choosing Sean. She deserved to be with someone like him.

Pulling out his phone, Kason opened the chat with Norah. The last message he sent asked her about her whereabouts. Norah had replied that she was on a business trip in Otland. Since then, there had been silence.

Gently pressing on her profile picture, Kason was reminded of Norah’s mysterious and intense nature. She was like the night—full of secrets and without a glimmer of light.

As his finger touched her profile picture, it accidentally hit the emoji button, sending one. An emoji popped up on the screen, followed by a message asking her what she was up to.
