Zane had the professional chops, but he had ultimately let his libido utterly destroy his career.
With Norah's workplace drama finally settled, Adrian was visibly relaxed. He grinned, "My family is hosting a banquet tonight. I want you to come with me."
Norah set down her coffee cup, utterly bewildered. "A Chambers family banquet? Why would I go to that?"
Adrian's eyes burned with intensity. "My grandpa misses you. He complained that he barely got to speak with you at his birthday gala, so he specifically ordered me to bring you along. Plus, there's... something else I need to do."
He was completely ready. Tonight was the night he would lay it all on the line and confess his feelings to Norah.
Hearing that Grandpa Chambers had asked for her, Norah felt she couldn't refuse. "What time?"
"Around seven," Adrian replied eagerly. "I'll drive you to the hotel."
"Alright."
Adrian had already been preparing to fire Jenny and Gillian, so he had seamlessly arranged replacements to take over their duties without the department missing a single beat.
When Norah returned to her office, a steady stream of coworkers trickled in, awkwardly offering their apologies.
"Supervisor Lamont, we're so incredibly sorry for letting Jenny brainwash us!"
"We've learned our lesson. We won't jump on the gossip bandwagon ever again!"
"Even what you see with your own eyes isn't always the truth, let alone a bunch of photos!"
...
Norah gracefully accepted their apologies and assured everyone that she wasn't holding any grudges. She just wanted them to focus on their work.
