Madly Yours (Nora Reed) novel Chapter 465

Nora felt like she was going crazy.

But the man refused to let her go.

"You're too... intense..."

Even on a normal day, Hudson was too much for her to handle, let alone with the added assistance of a waterbed.

Nora wanted to beg for mercy, but Hudson gave her no chance to speak.

He grabbed her hand, pressing it flat against her own stomach.

"Right here..."

"Hudson!"

Nora blushed furiously, trying to yank her hand away, but his grip was ironclad.

Her palm had no choice but to feel every movement.

Hudson leaned in close to her ear.

Tens of thousands of feet in the air, the thundering of her heartbeat mingled with the roar of the plane's engines. She couldn't tell which was louder. Right before she finally slipped into unconsciousness, she vaguely heard the man's deep, raspy voice—

*I love you...*

She wanted to answer, but she had absolutely no strength left.

She could only let the darkness pull her under.

She silently added a reply in her heart.

*I love you too...*

...

The two-day vacation had completely washed away the gloom weighing on Nora's heart.

As usual, Olive drove her to work.

"Morning, Director Reed..."

"Morning."

The moment Nora walked into the office, she could tell the vibe was totally off.

From the front desk to the elevators, from the hallways to the bullpen—every single person who saw her looked like they wanted to say something but held back. Their eyes darted nervously, and the second she looked at them, they looked away.

A few coworkers who usually greeted her practically took a detour just to avoid crossing paths with her today.

There was also a photo of her bending down to get into the black Maybach in Star Entertainment's underground parking lot. The caption read: 'Chauffeured in luxury cars, suspected of being a sugar baby.'

The post even included pictures of the slanderous posters Jade Reed had plastered outside, using them as 'proof' that Nora was a serial homewrecker and that these rumors weren't baseless.

The final paragraph was especially melodramatic.

It claimed that Harrison Sutton had worked his heart out for Star Entertainment for eight years, generating massive profits for the company, only to be fired without cause.

Meanwhile, Nora had been handed the title of Music Director less than a month after joining the company. The post demanded that the relevant departments investigate the matter and give her husband the justice he deserved.

The comment section was a complete bloodbath, totally one-sided.

[Holy crap, this is wild. Isn't Star Entertainment owned by the Lancaster Group?]

[So this Nora Reed hooked up with one of the top execs at Lancaster?]

[I thought she was ROSE? Does ROSE really need a sugar daddy?]

[So what if she's ROSE? What if she has a ghostwriting team? It's not like the entertainment industry hasn't seen fake personas crash and burn before.]

[The comment above nailed it. Plus, did you notice she became Music Director in less than a month? You couldn't move that fast on a rocket!]

[I just want to know who owns that Maybach.]
