Chapter: 582
When Sean escorted Norah home the night before, the maid for Alice's care was already waiting at the door as instructed. Seeing the drunk Alice, the maid hastily took care of Alice, managing to ease her discomfort from drinking too much.
In Cesland, the wealthy could afford almost all the service. The maid, hired by Sean for Alice, was professional.
Today, the maid took Alice to a renowned nearby scenic spot to relax.
She kept Norah updated on Alice's whereabouts using her phone's GPS, along with photos and videos she had taken.
On Norah's first day back at the hospital, just like Jamison said would happen, she jumped straight into surgery without pausing for a break after the morning meeting.
Just as Norah finished up her second surgery, Joanna called.
Norah held the phone between her shoulder and ear while washing her hands under the running water.
"I remember Spencer said he'd look after Bryson and get a room for him to rest in the Glamour Club. So how could he possibly have slept with Kathy? I mean, how? And there are videos and photos? In high definition, without any censoring?" Norah grabbed a tissue to dry her phone, clutching it tightly in her right hand. The surprise in her voice was crystal clear.
Joanna's voice sounded desperate on the other end of the line. "Can you believe it? The media won't stop with those pics and videos. Now, everyone who checks entertainment news knows my brother and Kathy had a thing. I'm speechless. He definitely lost his mind! How could he sleep with Kathy? Just the idea of him being in the same bed with her makes me feel like something's not right."
Joanna's tone brimmed with fury. "I've seen the video. It appears unaltered. It seemed my brother had indeed slept with Kathy! Norah!
I can't accept it." Her voice quivered with a hint of tears.
Joanna's animosity toward Kathy had deep roots, stemming from Kathy's past actions and the attempted harm against Norah. She loathed every aspect of Kathy, be it Kathy's looks or her character. Now that Joanna had learned of Kathy's so-called one-night stand with Bryson, spreading like wildfire throughout Glophia, how could she not feel utterly shattered?
"Before I called you, I spoke with my brother. He said he would explain everything when he comes to see me. But I don't want to see him at all. What should I do, Norah?" Tears welled in Joanna's eyes as she clutched her phone, a sense of helplessness gnawing at her core.
It was her own brother who had slept with Kathy. Joanna felt more perturbed than anyone. “He's surrounded by countless women. He's got a flock of female secretaries, all of them stunning. So why would he choose Kathy?"
Norah couldn't get a word in edgewise as Joanna, reeling and incredulous, continued her tirade.
Norah advised, “Alright. My suggestion is to hear Bryson out once he arrives. I'm currently tied up and have an operation to attend to.
I'll catch up with you later."
With a puzzled expression, Norah hung up, unable to fathom why Bryson would get entangled with Kathy. After all, he was known for his discerning taste in women. She resolved to investigate further after wrapping up her work.
Exiting the Glamour Club and entering the office, Bryson brimmed with trepidation, sensing an impending storm.
One of his female secretaries knocked and entered, carrying documents.
“Mr. Andrews, here are the materials for the afternoon meeting."
The secretary donned a seductive business attire that hugged her slender waist, highlighted her ample bosom, and accentuated her rounded curves. After placing the documents on the desk, she lingered by Bryson's side, wearing an enigmatic expression on her delicate features.
Bryson furrowed his brow. "Is there something else?"
“Mr. Andrews, there's a viral video circulating on the local entertainment news." Her cheeks flushed with embarrassment. “And it's about you."
