Love on the Fast Track

Chapter 1168:

Sean sneered. “You’re afraid just because Norah is telling the truth, right?”

Norah listened to the confrontation between the two men. Somehow, her parents hadn’t shown up at the door yet, and she hadn’t received any response to the message she’d sent to Chayce.

Her heart sank as she suddenly realized why Iker had abruptly inquired about her parents. It became clear that he had acted preemptively.

With a cold expression, Norah leaped off the stage, her movements fluid and unimpeded by her high heels and dress.

The microphone she had tossed faced the stereo, unleashing a jarring feedback that caused the guests to cover their ears in discomfort.

The crowd watched in stunned silence as she leaped from the stage, hiking up her skirt to run. The hem of her golden evening dress fluttered behind her, creating a graceful, sweeping arc. Her retreating figure was filled with urgency and anxiety. Without uttering a word, she hurried to leave the scene.

Two bodyguards stationed at the door blocked her path, and Iker’s voice, calm yet authoritative, began to reach the ears of everyone present.noveldrama

“Miss Wilson, aren’t you going to question me? Why do you want to leave? Countless people are waiting for you to prove your words.”

Hank was puzzled by Norah’s sudden departure. He had recognized Ivy, Reggie, and Justin—former servants of the Wilson family who had vanished some time ago. He had dismissed their disappearance as an ordinary dismissal, without understanding the deeper significance.

Given Norah’s hints of an underlying story, Hank felt there might be more to the situation. However, seeing that his father remained untroubled, he decided it was unnecessary for him to be concerned.

“Norah, you’ve slandered my father’s reputation at his birthday party. Do you really think you can just leave like this? Let me make it clear: that’s not going to happen!”

Hank signaled to the security guards around the stage with a discreet wink, and they swiftly began to pursue Norah.

Norah’s mind was consumed with concern for her parents’ current situation. Facing the hostile bodyguards ahead and the smug Wilson family members behind her, she struggled to maintain her composure.

If she let panic take over now, it would only serve to satisfy Iker and his family.

Drugging her was merely a preliminary tactic. Their primary objective was to target her parents.

Norah’s face went pale. The thought of what might happen to her parents if Iker caught them was too awful to bear. Her heart skipped a beat at the terrifying possibilities.
