Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 281:

Norah’s lips curled into a smile, her eyes sparkling with mischief. “Darling, are you curious about how I spent my afternoon? Well, that’s the answer.”

She gestured toward the white porcelain vials, their smooth surfaces unadorned by patterns or designs, yet emanating a comforting warmth in the ambient light. The four identical white porcelain vials stood in perfect alignment.

Sean’s hand extended, selecting one at random. With a gentle twist, he uncorked the bottle, revealing its contents: a collection of petite brown pills. Half-filled, they emitted a delicate tinkling sound as he gave the vial a slight shake.

Sean grasped another white porcelain vial, distinct from the first. This time, its contents differed— small white pills nestled inside. Surveying the two vials before him, Sean now grasped their significance.

“Did you acquire the medication this afternoon? What are they?” Sean inquired, his tone laced with curiosity.

The absence of labels on the vial surfaces hinted at their unconventional origin, clearly not the product of a formal pharmaceutical company. They likely bore the hallmark of individual craftsmanship.

Norah wagged her finger playfully, dismissing his response with a shake of her head.
