Love on the Fast Track

Chapter 1254:

“My mother’s side of the family is in the arms trade too. Perhaps there’s a chance for collaboration?” Norah suggested.

“Absolutely, I am more than glad to have more partners. And I’m relieved that it’s you connecting us,” Alice replied.

Her laughter filled the car as she began to share stories about her son. “I always wondered how I’d introduce him to you, but there is no need for concern now. He’s quite the charmer. Next time you visit Hander Land, I’ll bring him along.”

“You secretly had a baby and didn’t even tell me. Do you even think of me as a friend?” Norah complained.

“I was still trying to figure things out at that time. How could I possibly have the courage to tell you I had a child?” explained Alice.noveldrama

Norah felt a chill run down her spine at Alice’s artificially sweet voice. “Stop that. It’s been forever since we last saw each other; don’t make me feel sick the whole time we’re together. You could have packed up the weapons and had someone else deliver them to me. Why did you come yourself?”

Alice rolled her eyes and switched back to her normal voice. “Of course, it was because I missed you.”

As Norah drove her home, she said, “Alright, I know you too well. Just get to the point.”

Alice’s face became serious. “Okay, but don’t be shocked by what I’m about to tell you. I swear it’s true. Someone from Dark Night is still alive.”

Norah slammed on the brakes. Alice, anticipating this, grabbed her seat belt tightly and looked at her. “Hey, relax.”

Norah restarted the car. “How can that be? We were the only ones out on a mission while everyone else at the base was killed in the explosion.”

Indeed, Dark Night’s base had been destroyed. Those who weren’t on missions were at the base for training, leaving no chance for anyone to survive.

After Norah and Alice returned, they searched extensively but found not even a single intact body. The scene was a complete disaster, with no signs of life anywhere.

Alice nodded. “Yes, I found that strange too. Weren’t you in Bellfolk recently? I was there dealing with some troublemakers under my Night Cat alias. Maybe that’s why I was noticed. After I got back to Hander Land, I kept feeling like someone was watching me.”

Norah’s expression darkened. She had recently met the leader of Flame. If he broke his promise, word that Dark Night’s Rose was still alive would surely spread. If Dark Night members were indeed dead, it wouldn’t be a concern. But if they were alive…

Her face grew stern. She was prepared to send them to their doom once more.
