Chapter: 1241

“Okay," Nora replied, sitting up and rubbing her eyes. Her hair was unkempt from sleep, which she tried to smooth down. She paused, her thoughts drifting to the woman from the night before.

Despite their brief connection, a future meeting seemed unlikely.

Nora had no other assistants. Amy managed all her affairs solo.

After helping Nora prepare and pack, Amy reached the door, luggage in tow.

"The chartered plane awaits on the nearby tarmac, and the driver is downstairs—"

Her sentence was cut short by a group of people in the corridor.

Leading them was Sean and his friends.

Nora glanced up to find the intriguing woman from the previous night now, accompanied by others.

It appeared they were all acquainted.

Joanna inquired, "Norah, are you departing?"

Susanna questioned, “Where are you headed?"

Alice proposed, “How about staying a little Longer?"

Sean watched Nora intently. He had spent the previous night in bitter anticipation, hoping for her agreement to his request, yet she had declined. This morning, he had come down, hoping for a chance meeting, only to encounter this scene.

The agent grasped the suitcase as the group moved briskly, poised to leave.

Was Nora truly leaving now?

Nora's lips twitched. "The competition has concluded. Why should I remain?"

The error of her performance yesterday was clear to all present, leaving her with no further reason to stay.

The group before her, professing to be her fans, had no entitlement to request her presence any longer.

She asked with a tilt of her head, "Why do you obstruct my path?"

Sean's tone grew tender. “Norah—"

He was torn between uncovering the truth behind her and his desire for her to remain at his side, his emotions conflicted.

Amy's expression turned stern. "Nora is departing now. Please clear the way. I will handle the expenses for the Rejuvenation Powder. Thank you for assisting her.”

Alice exchanged looks with Joanna and Susanna before stepping aside.

“If that is the case, I wish you a safe journey," Alice said.
