Chapter: 22
Joanna's reaction caught the attention of both Bryson and Norah.
“Who's on the phone?" Bryson asked.
Joanna moved closer to Norah and quietly said, “Kason's on the Line. He mentioned Mr. Scott is looking for Supernatural Doctor. They've taken Kason into custody and need to know if he can reveal your identity to them."
Norah's interest was piqued. “It's curious that after two years away, I'm still sought after. Inform him that if Mr. Scott takes the first place in the Krusa Mountain Racing in five days, I'll agree to meet with him."
Norah planned to attend the Krusa Mountain Racing, aware that Nocturne would also be there. She was curious about Sean's performance.
“Norah, that's impressive," Joanna commented, applauding her decision.
Bryson observed their quiet conversation with a puzzled expression.
He narrowed his eyes and asked, “What are you two talking about behind my back?"
After a brief conversation on the phone, Joanna ended the call, looked up innocently, and said, “Oh, it's just some women's talk. What's got you so intrigued?"
Joanna leaned on Norah's shoulder, suggesting, “Norah, why not stay at my place? Now that you've moved out, you're without a place to stay. Tomorrow, I'll show you the villas I own. You can pick whichever one you like."
Bryson chimed in, “I've got a few properties myself. Norah, feel free to choose any."
Norah mischievously smiled and said, "Why would I be homeless? I might lack many things, but houses aren't one of them. Bryson, please drop me off at Dreamview Villas."
Joanna was taken aback. "You have a place in Dreamview Villas?"
Dreamview Villas stood as Glophia's top-notch community. Renowned for its privacy and security, its properties were limited, attracting only the most influential or affluent individuals.
Joanna knew of it through Bryson's casual mentions, having only a slight idea of its prestige.
Bryson, too, was taken aback. He instructed the driver to take a different route. "Let's go to Dreamview Villas."
"Well, it was a present from a friend," Norah mentioned indifferently.
At the Glamour Club's top-floor chamber.
“Kason, what are you doing at Glamour Club? I noticed you are speaking with Joanna. Are you acquainted? Derek's former wife is also present," Sitting beside Spencer, Kaiden glanced at Kason and asked with curiosity.
Since Kason stepped into the Glamour Club, Kaiden had been curious about his motives. Kaiden understood Kason very well. He knew Kason had no interest in women and wouldn't even step into entertainment spots.
Seeing Kason in Glamour Club with Spencer sparked his curiosity further. Learning Kason had just met with Sean would have intensified his surprise.
Once the call ended, Kason listened to Kaiden and asked, “Derek's former wife? Are you referring to the lovely lady next to Joanna? Spencer answered, “Yes. I presumed you were acquainted. The earlier disturbance at Glamour Club is resolved. Perhaps we should seek a quieter place for our chat?"
Kason pondered for a moment. Having only recently assumed Leadership of the Hayes family, he was still getting to know the influential figures of Glophia, including Norah from the Wilson family who joined the Carters two years ago.
Kason responded with ease, “Proceed with your plans. I have matters to attend to here."
