Chapter: 1017

Norah checked her phone; still no message from Sean.

Feeling down, she sipped on several more glasses of wine. She intended to stick around for a bit before heading back to her dorm early.

When she came to her senses, she realized all the others had left, leaving only Yolande in the room.

“Are you done?"

Norah stood up, her vision clear. The wine hadn't affected her much.

After all, the wine Yolande had chosen was quite weak. She could have drunk it all and not felt drunk.

Yolande, a lightweight drinker, was clearly struggling, her eyes unfocused.

“What right does Dolores have to be with Marlin? She's nothing but a schemer. It's only a matter of time before they split up."

Slumped on the sofa, Yolande slurred her words. Norah walked over and nudged her.

"Yolande, let's go home."

If Yolande couldn't handle her alcohol, she shouldn't have consumed so much. Didn't she consider her own safety? Norah was left speechless.

As Yolande opened her eyes and saw Norah, her foggy mind briefly cleared, only to cloud over once more.

"Norah, I need to tell you something.”

She gripped her hand tightly and murmured, “I need to tell you something."

But before she could finish, she fell asleep again.

Norah pulled a Mind Clearing Pill from her purse, preparing to give it to the nearly unconscious Yolande. Just then, the door burst open.

"What are you doing to Miss Boyd?"

Startled, Norah froze, but kept her grip on the pill steady. She looked up to see who was at the door.

Two bodyguards in black were standing there, eyeing her hand.

Norah popped the Mind Clearing Pill into her mouth and swallowed it.

"It's an anti-alcohol drug."

The bodyguards shut the door.

She couldn't help but sigh internally. How could Yolande be so careless? She got herself drunk, knowing full well that bodyguards were nearby.

She fetched another Mind Clearing Pill for Yolande. About five minutes later, Yolande stirred her hand on her forehead.
