Flash Marriage: She becomes Mrs. CEO after the Failed Dowry Talk

Chapter 584: No Need to Be Formal

Elaine is a person with a very regular routine. When the clock points to "six," she’s already seated in the dining room, without deliberately waiting for anyone.

However, she instructs the kitchen staff, "When Nora wakes up, prepare a fresh dinner for her, make some warm desserts for her, and for her husband as well."

The household staff can all sense the master’s deep affection for this daughter.

The joy of finding what was lost is not something everyone can experience.

Just as the staff were about to start preparations, they were stopped in time by Nora, "Aunt Faye, no need to fuss, I’m having dinner with friends spontaneously."

A reunion after a long time feels like newlyweds.

Elaine doesn’t linger, she just says to them, "Come back to eat whenever you can."

Leaving Elaine’s residence, the two head straight to DP.

Setting off at the same time were Lily and Yvonne; Nora, to help her close friend, had also invited Finnian to the bar.

On the way, she jokingly says to Jasper, "Can’t imagine what it would be like for a gentleman to go clubbing!"

She is excited, completely unaware of the inappropriateness of her words, until she’s reminded.

"Isn’t it a bit inappropriate to keep mentioning other men in front of me?"

Only then does Nora quiet down, letting him play with the ends of her hair.

The road is especially congested tonight, with all sorts of people along the street, everyone looking for a place to celebrate the New Year’s arrival.

Nora and Jasper are the second to arrive, they park their car by the roadside.

Just as they’re about to get out of the car, Nora suddenly grabs the arm of the person next to her, "Look, aren’t those two Yvonne and Rhys!" She speaks with almost certainty.

There are few who can rival the aura Yvonne exudes, and likewise, Rhys’s playboy image is deeply ingrained in people’s minds.

"It’s them."

Nora silently sighs, she’s told Yvonne more than once not to get too deeply involved.

Now it seems, it’s already too late.

She asks again, "Do you think there’s a big chance for the two of them to be together?"

"They’re already together, no need for anyone’s opinion."

"Oh!" Nora rolls her eyes at him, "I mean the kind that leads to marriage."

"It depends on their fate."

Nora sighs again; even Jasper can’t be sure, it seems to be difficult. She can only silently pray for Yvonne in her heart.

Once she’s done brooding, the man finally turns off the car.

The city on New Year’s Eve is extraordinarily lively, the ground glowing with neon lights.

The server recognizes Jasper, and directly leads them to the top-tier private room.

Upon entering, they see neat rows of stemware on the table.

The server notices his gaze linger for a moment and explains, "This is the drink arrangement by Young Master Linden."

"Go ahead and get busy."

Jasper sends the server away, and soon after, more people start arriving one after another.

Lily, Noah, Finnian... In the end, only Rhys and Yvonne are still absent.

Some sing, some drink.

Nora feels like she’s finally experiencing a young person’s life; no wonder Elaine always says she’s too uptight, not like a girl in her twenties.

Later, Rhys calls in a few childhood friends to liven up the atmosphere.

Everyone has their own way of playing; Rhys suggests, "How about we find a game room to play cards!"

So, a group of them grandly shifts the battlefield to the game room on the seventeenth floor.

Eight people gathered for a game of cards, not counting the just-graduated kids.
