Filed To Story: The Plan of Saving Nora Novel Free
Pete: “?”
Xander: “??”
Cherry tilted her head and said, “Grandaunt doesn’t have any children, so she has always said that everything she has is mine. Princess Lucy can testify to that!”
Princess Lucy had been staying at the Hunts’ ever since she came to celebrate Cherry’s birthday the other time. She had stayed with Cherry and played with her for three whole days.
Later, because of all the uncertainty and turmoil regarding Herman and Philip, Justin had sent her back.
She and Cherry had been reluctant to part when she had to go.
At the mention of her grandaunt, Cherry tilted her head and said, “I miss Grandaunt!”
Xander had been listless the whole time.
Even when Nora came home, all three children rushed over, and she played with them for a while—Xander was still not very happy.
However, it seemed like the little boy had learned to hide his emotions from an early age, so he didn’t let it show at all.
After having dinner with the children, Nora sent them back to their room to rest.
The three little fellows were still very young. Coupled with the fact that she was around that night, they had all clamored to sleep with her. Thus, all of them lay down together on the bed.
The heartless Cherry fell asleep very quickly.
Pete looked at Xander worriedly.
Nora patted his head.
Pete was simply too sensitive. On top of that, he even knew to be mindful of other people’s emotions. He was so sensible that it made one’s heart ache.
On the contrary, it was Xander the little devil who couldn’t fall asleep. It was only after Nora lit the calming incense she had developed that Pete and Xander finally fell asleep.
She got up to check on Justin and see what he was doing
But as soon as she moved, she heard Xander shouting in his sleep, “Mommy, save me! Rainbow, I don’t wanna die. Sniff…”
“Rainbow, is it cold in the soil?”
“Does it hurt when you die?”
“Do you still feel anything after death?”
Nora was frozen in place.
She had lit the calming incense, so despite Xander’s extreme unease, he didn’t wake up. However, his words pierced Nora’s heart like a dagger.
As it turned out, Xander was feeling very insecure.
He had been fearful all along, yet the boy had never said anything in front of them.
It was true that he felt sorry for the animals and was sad to part with them. But who wouldn’t be afraid of death?
This was especially when… Xander had an extremely high IQ. He understood the concept of life and death.
Nora took a deep breath and walked out of the room.
She didn’t go upstairs to look for Justin.
On the way back to New York, she and Justin had agreed to find a suitable opportunity to get rid of the people tailing her. After that, they would go to the bank to retrieve the things there.
But she couldn’t wait anymore.
After Justin’s fight with Jude, he had become extremely cautious. This made the perceptive Nora realize that the people tailing them could not be ordinary.
According to Caleb, the five children who survived back then had all become big bosses in different places. Trueman and Caleb were in Switzerland, but there were still three others who were following her in search of the V16!
She didn’t know who they were, nor did she have any clue as to their identities at the moment.
But if she dragged this on any further, she was really afraid that she wouldn’t be able to save Xander anymore.
It was just a safe deposit box, wasn’t it?
She would just go and retrieve it!
With that in mind, Nora left the Hunt Manor. She didn’t drive. Instead, she tried her best to avoid the people tailing her in the dark and turned into a small alley at the side.
After doing this several times, she finally got rid of the people tailing her and arrived at the bank.
The bank was closed and locked up at night. This was not an issue for Nora, though.
She took out her cell phone casually and tapped away on it quickly.
Click!
The door to the bank opened and Nora slipped inside.
It was pitch black inside the hall.
Nora turned on her cell phone immediately after she entered. On the screen was the layout of the bank.
Although her mother had deposited the things in the bank more than twenty years ago, the location of the safes was still the same despite the layout of the bank changing over the years.
Thus, her mother’s things were still there.
Nora remembered clearly that it was safe no. 06 and the password was her birthday.
She walked soundlessly towards the safe deposit boxes.
There was no staff inside, only security officers patrolling back and forth. However, it was very difficult for them to spot her.
Nora was in full black clothing, so she completely blended with the darkness.
Light-footed and nimble, she headed straight to the safe deposit boxes. But after she passed by two rooms, she suddenly heard footsteps behind her.
Nora’s pupils shrank and she suddenly darted into the corner next to her. When she looked behind her, she caught a shadow flashing past.
It seemed that it was very unsafe here tonight.
And she wasn’t alone here!
The thought made Nora bite her lip. Her first thought was that she hadn’t managed to avoid the people tailing her and had been followed!
Aside from professionals like Morris, the only ones who could follow her without her noticing were people more skilled than her in martial arts.
Someone more skilled than her in martial arts?! Was it Jude’s boss?
Could that person be one of the five children who had survived in the gene serum laboratory?
It could only be one of them!
Nora broke into a big frown.
Her mind ran at high speed. What should she do?
Since he had followed her here, he must already know by now that something was up with the bank. Even if she turned around and left, it would be difficult for her to dispel the other party’s suspicions.
Even if he didn’t know that the safe in question was No. 06, now that he had locked on to the bank, all he needed to do was just check all the safes and he would find the clue.
Therefore, she had no way out.
Tonight, she, Nora Smith, must retrieve the V16 that her mother had left behind. Otherwise, it was highly likely that she would be caught by the other party!
With that in mind, Nora took a deep breath.
Then, she suddenly stopped and went on the offensive!
She would test the black-clad man’s skills first.
Bam!
The moment she launched her attack, the two got into a fight. The other party responded very quickly. Before her fist could connect, he was already blocking her attack and counterattacking.
In just a single exchange of blows, Nora concluded that he was most definitely someone whose genes had been modified with the gene serum!
Because his physical strength was too great!
Nora had been practicing martial arts for a very long time. Since she was a child, she had been relying on her natural talent to come this far. On top of that, she even became the Quinn School of Martial Arts’ Big Sister.
This was the first person in her life to give her a foreboding pressure.
Her almond-shaped eyes were widened big and round as she stared at the person in front of her.
In the darkness, the man’s eyes shone green. He wore a baseball cap and a facial mask, revealing only his eyes. The way he stared at Nora was as if he had just spotted his prey.
When he was blocking Nora’s attack, the man chuckled and said, “Is that all you’ve got?”
He had an accent. It was obvious that he was a foreigner.
In this instant, Nora felt a little angry at herself for not training properly. If she had been a little more diligent, then she might have had a chance if she went at her opponent with full force.
She took a deep breath. “Who are you?”
“You don’t need to know that. Just hand over the V16 obediently and I will spare your life.”
The man moved toward her one step at a time. “Resistance is futile. All my genes have been improved and I have no flaws. I am the most powerful fighter on earth now. Without any firearms, you won’t be a match for me at all.”
The man spoke confidently and arrogantly.
How could she use firearms here, though? If she did, all the security officers would come running in an instant!
Nora was in a half-squat, ready to attack.
She knew that she was not the man’s match, but she couldn’t just go down without a fight.
The V16 was Xander’s, she would never relinquish it to anyone else!
She took a deep breath and sneered, “Try me.”
The man seemed a little surprised at her reaction. Nevertheless, he let out a low chuckle and said, “Trueman is right, you are indeed too stubborn. You hold out hope until you’re faced with the grim reality. In that case, I shall show you how strong I am!”
The man stepped forward abruptly and closed the distance between him and Nora!
