Chapter: 85
Norah rolled her eyes and said, "I'm working with them now."
“That highlighted the significance of proficiency! My father has decided I should run one of my family companies. Once I'm back from training, I'll take over as CEO. It's my first time in charge, and I'm quite thrilled about it," Joanna explained.
“What if you go bankrupt?" Norah teased.
“My father mentioned it's a smaller venture meant as practice for me. If it goes bankrupt, he'll step in to help. And my brother's got my back. He wouldn't let me fail. And there's you, so failure's not in the cards!" Joanna said excitedly, "I'm on my way to being CEO!"
Norah decided not to dampen her spirits with any more teasing. "So, where are we headed?"
"To Glamour Club! It's time for some fun! Today, I want you to take it easy. My brother mentioned you've been working at the hospital for a week. It's high time you kicked back and let go of some stress! Do you need to switch up your outfit?"
In her simple and comfy attire, Norah didn't quite match the club's vibe.
“That sounds good."
An hour later, they arrived at Glamour Club.
"It's been ages since I've had a drink. I'm claiming all these!"
Joanna went all out ordering drinks.
Norah said helplessly, “I'll drive you home later."
Before hitting the club, they stopped by Splendor Building to get a makeover with the help of Aaron.
The dance floor was packed, the crowd moving to the pulsating beats, fully embracing their wild side.
Norah sipped her cocktail leisurely.
Upstairs, the passers-by couldn't help but steal glances at Norah and Joanna.
Last time, Norah's choice was a white strapless mini, but tonight's red fitted dress accentuated her figure even more strikingly.
The neon lighting further highlighted Norah's exquisite features, and as a lock of hair fell across her forehead, she elegantly tucked it behind her ear. Her cascading curls added a touch of allure to every move she made.
Joanna, sporting a crop top and shorts, had her hair up, showcasing her neckline.
After a sip of her drink, Joanna's cheeks flushed a rosy hue. "Norah, you're stunning. If I were a man, I'd marry you in a heartbeat..."
With occasional burps interrupting her speech, Joanna said, “Derek's such an idiot for choosing Madeline over you. He's bound to regret it. And when he does, you better not take him back!"
Norah couldn't help but smile. Joanna's support meant the world to her.
Recalling Derek's words from their last encounter in the cafe, a shadow passed over Norah's eyes. Derek was undoubtedly a despicable man. That was probably why he thought lowly of everyone else.
Norah kept quiet about what Derek had said. She knew Joanna would storm his office, ready to confront him if Joanna found out. This was typical of Joanna. Joanna let her anger out through her actions.
