Her ringing phone interrupted her thoughts. She checked the screen—it was Sara.
"Hey, Princess Norah, what time are you off today?" Sara's cheerful voice rang through the speaker. "Let's go shopping tonight. I've been working overtime for two straight weeks, and I finally have a night to breathe."
It seemed everyone was swamped lately.
Norah laughed. "I can't tonight. I'm grabbing dinner with my coworkers to celebrate my promotion!"
"Oh right, I haven't even congratulated you yet!" Sara said excitedly.
An idea flashed through Norah's mind. "Why don't you come with us tonight?"
"Is that appropriate?" Sara hesitated.
"Why wouldn't it be? You know Adrian anyway!"
"Alright!" Sara agreed without missing a beat. "Text me the time and place. I'm clocking out right now."
"Will do!"
Norah hung up and forwarded the dinner details to her friend.
Sara briefly considered inviting Khloe, but remembering Adrian would be there, she decided against it.
By six o'clock, the group arrived at the restaurant.
Since Norah was officially part of the marketing department now, her new coworkers Jenny Jordan and Gillian York tagged along.
One of the male colleagues, Zane Bradley, walked up carrying a bouquet of red roses. "Norah, welcome to the department. I'll do everything in my power to support your work moving forward!"
Zane was an old college classmate of Adrian's and had been helping him out ever since Adrian took over the company. He was currently the Deputy Manager of Marketing.
Given his connection to Adrian and the fact that he was technically Norah's upperclassman from university, their dynamic was naturally friendlier than the average coworkers'.

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....
