Madly Yours (Nora Reed) novel Chapter 54

"Edmond..." Ferris started tentatively. "Should we contact the lawyers?"

"Yeah," Edmond muttered, his voice muffled. "Tell the legal department to start prepping. We'll handle the rest when we get back."

"Got it."

The car slowly pulled away from the block housing Star Tower, making a U-turn at the next intersection to head back to the hotel.

Ferris turned to look out the window, his gaze sweeping casually over the traffic in the oncoming lane.

A black Maybach cruised past in the opposite direction.

Ferris's eyes locked onto it.

That car...

Was that Mr. Lancaster's car again?

He whipped his head around to look, but the vehicle was already shrinking into the distance, leaving only a blurred taillight in its wake.

Ferris frowned, a sudden thought springing to mind.

Why would Mr. Lancaster's car be here?

He had seen it yesterday in the Star Entertainment underground garage, and today it was prowling around Star Tower again...

It was too much of a coincidence.

Could it be...

The person who bought Star Entertainment was Hudson Lancaster?

Ferris recoiled at his own theory.

He opened his mouth to tell Edmond, but upon seeing the murderous, thunderous expression on Edmond's face, he swallowed the words down.

Forget it.

Better wait until they were back in Northampton and dealt with the Starlight mess first.

...

During the lunch hour, Nora had barely sat down at her desk when her phone vibrated.

She glanced at the caller ID and swiped to answer.

"How's the first day of work?" Hudson's deep, warm voice drifted through the receiver, carrying a lazier undertone than usual.

Nora leaned back in her chair, recalling Leo's rebellious, uncooperative attitude, and a faint smile touched her lips. "It's alright."

A low chuckle came through the line.
