Love Is Gone ( Nora Smith)

The bar on the first floor was already bubbling with people’s voices by now.

Anthony was quite well-known in California.

Under the power of his summons, his friends brought more friends along and filled up the place.

The lights in the entire bar were blurry, and men and women were twisting their bodies fervently on the dance floor.

Angela, who wore a long red gown, was sitting in the corner with a drink in her hand and her cheeks rosy.

Next to her, her group of fair-weather friends was complimenting her.

"Hotel Finest’s not cheap, Angela.Anthony must have big plans in mind, right? Is he...going to propose?"

"He must be proposing! I’m sure of it! Isn’t your sister back? I heard that even the marriage certificate has been torn into pieces.With that, their engagement can officially be considered annulled!"

"It’s all that damned fatt...damned woman’s fault! If it hadn't been for her hiding abroad for so many years and refusing to come back and annul the engagement, Angela and Anthony would have been married long ago!"

"Hey, why is that woman here?!"

With these words, Angela also looked at the entrance.

Nora was still dressed just as casually today.

Jeans and a black T-shirt set off the skin around her neck, making it look so fair that it was glowing white.She was expressionless, her eyes were slightly lidded, and she gave off a world-weary feeling, yet her looks were eye-catching and beautiful.

As soon as she entered, she immediately attracted the attention of everyone around her.

The moment she walked in, a waiter rushed to the back.

"Mr.Gray, she’s here!" Anthony stood up immediately and walked forward.

"Get ready!" The loud music in the bar gave Nora a headache, and overwhelming irritation filled her.

She looked up.When her indifferent gaze located Angela, she walked over to her.

Before she had even gotten near, she heard a pretentious Angela say, "Why are you here, Nora? Anthony will never agree to meet you."
