Chapter: 1410

"Wait!" Norah walked over to her and whispered in her ear, “Are you still in touch with Larry?"

Hadley's face turned red. She quickly stepped back and stammered, "T-there is nothing improper between me and him. How... how did you know that?"

Larry and Hadley had once found solace in each other under the weight of Hank's and Elsa's dominance.

Before their affair could go further, Hadley had thought of her young son and refused Larry's advances.

No matter how poorly Hank treated her, having an affair was wrong.

Norah smiled reassuringly and patted Hadley's shoulder. “Don't worry. I won't say anything. You can go back."

Hadley left, fear gnawing at her. She had believed she'd hidden her secret well, even from her own family. How could Norah, an outsider, have known?

The mention of it left Hadley trembling and fear gripped her tightly.

Norah watched Hadley's retreating figure with calm, calculating eyes.

She had mentioned Larry for a reason-to warn Hadley without saying too much.

At this moment, she glanced up at her reflection in the mirror and smiled to herself.

In the ruthless Wilson family, there was still someone with feelings, even if they were few and far between.

Norah smoothed her hair and walked out with her head held high.

As she emerged, Sean glanced at her and worriedly asked, "Why did it take you so long to go to the bathroom? Are you okay?"

“Everything's fine," Norah replied smoothly. "By the way, Sean, when things get chaotic later, I may not have time to look out for you. But you don't have to worry about me."

Even small distractions could lead to mistakes in crucial moments.

Sean nodded, his expression steady. “Don't worry. I won't be a burden to you."

The party was grand, and nearly all the wealthy families and high-profile celebrities in Glophia were there. Even famous stars from the entertainment world were invited to add glamour to the event.

Of course, Matteo and Kayla were present with their adoptive daughter, Nancy. Kayla and Nancy were inseparable, regardless of the occasion.

Susanna arrived alongside Phillip, while Sean was accompanied by his assistant, Frank.

Bryson, as usuala, had a female companion. Norah couldn't help but notice that his companion looked like some rising star in the entertainment industry.

What caught Norah's attention the most was the man beside Joanna—

Duncan.

Joanna blushed slightly under Norah's amused gaze and quickly explained, “My brother found a female companion, and I didn't want to be alone. Duncan happened to be free, so we decided to come together."
