Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 320:

“When will you be back? How long will you be gone?” Riss asked, each word coming out slowly with a raspy tone.

“It depends on my mood,” Alice replied coldly, showing no care for Riss’s pleas.

Seeing this, Oscar couldn’t hide his irritation. Riss, typically so respected and powerful, was reduced to begging Alice to stay, and she responded with indifference. Oscar found himself puzzled. Could love truly be this powerful? Riss, who usually valued everything else—especially the Breaker—was prioritizing Alice above all.

Oscar couldn’t understand it. To him, a career came first, yet Riss was acting as if Alice mattered more than his professional ambitions. He silently cursed, thinking Alice was being manipulative. He shot a resentful glance at both Alice and Norah, considering women as obstacles to his career advancement. If Oscar had known that Norah had been intercepting his weapons through the disruption of the arms trade, he would have been furious.

With a sense of determination, Riss said, “Alice, I’ll be here waiting for you. If you don’t feel like coming back, I’ll go to Cesland for you.” He vowed in his heart that he wouldn’t let her slip away again—no matter what.

Alice, still holding Norah’s hand, ignored Riss’s words entirely. “Norah, we should leave,” she stated, showing no interest in what he had said.

Norah took hold of the wheelchair from Riss, guiding Alice out. She turned to Sean and said, “Darling, let’s go.”
