Just as the words left her mouth, Norah and Adrian walked out of the building together.
Jenny immediately jogged over. "Norah!"
Putting on an eager, friendly front for Adrian's benefit, Jenny smiled. "Are you and the boss heading out?"
Since she had rejected Jenny's offer to be roommates earlier, Norah saw no reason to hide the truth now. "Thanks for giving me the idea, Jenny. I realized living closer to the office would be a lot more convenient. Adrian is coming with me to check out an apartment today."
Jenny feigned surprise. "You're looking at apartments? What a coincidence, Gillian and the others were thinking of moving too. We should all go together!"
Norah could easily tell that the four of them had been waiting specifically for her. If they wanted to tag along on her apartment viewing, she had a pretty good guess as to what Jenny was scheming.
Before Norah could respond, Adrian smoothly intervened. "Let's all go, then. You can help Norah decide if the place is any good."
Jenny batted her eyelashes at Adrian, turning up her charm. "You're right, Boss. After the viewing, dinner is on me."
"Why would you pay?" Adrian let out a brief laugh. "I'm treating."
"Thank you, Boss!" Jenny clasped her hands behind her back, flashing a sugary-sweet smile.
The group piled into their cars and headed to the residential complex Norah had selected.
It was a high-end property nearby, less than a ten-minute drive away—even faster if they took the pedestrian route. The moment they pulled through the gates, the color drained from Jenny's face.
This complex was in an entirely different league than the ones she had shown Norah. Naturally, the rent here would be astronomical.
Riding shotgun in Jenny's car, Gillian stared at Adrian's vehicle ahead of them and muttered, "Do you think the boss is paying for Norah's place?"
Jenny's expression turned ugly. "An assistant having the CEO pay for her apartment? What is that? Being a sugar baby?"
Gillian shot her a warning look. "Make sure you don't say anything like that in front of him."

Dear author Lucy, may we please have updates. Thank you....
There's a song currently playing via YouTube and TikToc by LowDii "Touch Me Softly" that makes me think of Norah and Xavier (Gonzalez). Please, I'm looking forward to updates. Thank you for your writing....
May we please have updates. Thank you....
As the plot thicken. Adrian is done for and he can't try to control Norah, so he'd probably tattle to Janice who's gone for two weeks. Thank you soooo much for the updates....
These updates were too funny. Thank you so much for the updates....
I forgot to add Amy to the group of pregnant women,since she was the first. Emily and Sylvia better be careful since pregnancy is in the air....
Wow! This is great, both Estelle and Magdalen are pregnant at the same time and I hope that Xavier is Norah neighbor. Thank you for the updates....
