Chapter: 947

Yolande got what Norah meant. "Hans knows what Rosalee did, but he's keeping quiet. Do you think he's plotting something? Yes, that must be it."

Yolande seemed to be talking to herself again, so Norah decided to move away.

Norah was only there to enjoy some drinks and desserts; she wasn't there to mingle with the influential people of Silverdale.

She was content with the connections she already had.

Soon, two of Yolande's followers came over to her.

“Yolande, have you befriended Norah Wilson?"

“Yolande, are you leaving us behind?"

When Yolande had earlier left with Norah, she hadn't glanced back at them at all. They were disappointed. It appeared that two years of friendship mattered less than a new acquaintance.

These two girls were from quite ordinary families in Silverdale. They had attempted to grow close to Yolande and claimed friendship to secure an invite to this event.

Their families regarded them as gateways to wealth and treated them kindly. They feared what might happen if they were to lose their connection to Yolande.

Yolande glanced at them with annoyance. “I was merely chatting with Norah. What are you afraid of?"

The two girls were worried she might abandon them, but they didn't dare voice their thoughts out.

Yolande said, "I have a task for you two. Follow Rosalee and take note of everything she does and says."

“Okay.”

"No problem!"

Holding a glass of champagne, Jarrod approached Norah and said, “Dr.

Wilson, I was surprised to see Mr. Scott bring you here. As a doctor, do you find this party boring?"

Norah shook her head. "It's quite alright."

She had been to similar gatherings before and knew how to occupy herself.

Jarrod gazed at Norah, struck by her graceful outfit.

“I saw you changed out of that dress. If anything's wrong, just tell me. After all, my father always reminds me to express my gratitude to you."

Norah replied, "Thank you for your thoughtfulness, Mr. Newman."

Jarrod truly owed thanks for the kindness others had shown him, She just had operated on his mother as part of her professional responsibilities.

A man familiar with Jarrod came over, wine glass in hand.
