Filed To Story: The Plan of Saving Nora Novel Free
Nora raised her eyebrows and said, “Yeah, Aunt Queenie treats Cherry very well.”
“Tell me more?”
Justin prompted.
Because if he didn’t, Nora would never say any more than that.
Nora smiled. “Sure.”
Back then, when she lost a lot of blood during childbirth and her life was on the line, her aunt had saved her and then taken her abroad. Later, she also outright declared Nora the heir to NTT.
During the announcement, her demeanor had been icy-cold, and she also treated her and Cherry coldly. But if the servants in the family ever slighted them even a little, Queenie would immediately and resolutely mete out punishment to them.
She remembered that when Cherry was three or four months old, because of her frail constitution, the baby caught a roseola infection and had a high fever, which needed to be cooled physically. At that time, when she called the doctor over in the middle of the night because of the fever, he’d said that it would be best to avoid taking medicine and cool the baby’s temperature physically instead.
Her aunt had immediately complained, “Children are so troublesome.”
At that time, Nora didn’t know her very well.
So, Nora told her to go back and rest while she took turns taking care of Cherry with the nanny.
Though Cherry was already more than three months old, Nora was still weak due to blood loss during childbirth. Unable to stay awake, she fell asleep in the middle of the night.
But when she was half-asleep, she saw Queenie changing the cold towel on Cherry’s forehead…
She had always been someone with a cold exterior but a warm heart. Moreover, Queenie was a resolute person with a can-do attitude. She was elegant and attractive, and many men courted her, but she rejected them all.
She said that she didn’t like men and had never thought of getting married.
Thus, everything in NTT was hers and Cherry’s.
Nora took a sip of water and said, “I’ve never thought of taking anything from her. Seeing that I seemed to have made up my mind, she decided to give NTT to Cherry.”
Realization dawned on Justin.
No wonder Cherry had never cared about the Hunts’ assets. As it turned out, it was because she already had NTT.
The Hunts’ assets were indeed comparable with NTT.
He lowered his eyes and held Nora’s hand. “Yeah. We’ll talk about it again when the time comes.”
Nora nodded.
The two chatted for quite a while. When they suddenly fell silent and were about to rest, they noticed Pete and Xander whispering to each other nearby.
Nora had sharp ears, so she heard the two little fellows’ private conversation.
Pete asked worriedly, “Will Cherry be mad because we exposed her like that?”
Xander, who adopted an arrogant and fearless stance, raised his chin and said, “So what even if she does? We’re doing this for her own good. Playing games every day is not good for her health!”
Pete nodded. Suddenly, he suggested, “Why don’t we have a good talk with her?”
Xander pouted. “What’s there to talk about? Just let her…”
Before he could finish, though, Pete suddenly sighed and said, “You’re the eldest among us, so you should act like one. Considering how unreliable Daddy is—he’s either faking his death or keeping quiet and ignoring us all the time-Cherry and I will have to depend on you in the future.”
Xander’s expression turned smug at once. “Heh, so you admit that I’m the eldest now?”
Pete replied, “Yes. I will do as you say from now on, Xander.”
His admission made Xander get ahead of himself. He patted his little chest and said, “Don’t worry, I will look after you and Cherry. I won’t let the two of you go down the wrong path.”
Pete asked, “Should we talk to Cherry?”
“Of course!” Xander insisted on acting like the eldest sibling and said, “I’ll ask her to come over right away. We’ll talk to her together.”
“Okay, Xander.”
Pete’s submissive attitude made Xander walk toward Cherry with his chin raised. He said, “Cherry, as your elder brothers, Pete and I have something to tell you.” Cherry was utterly puzzled.
She said to Queenie, “Brush Flora’s hair for me, Grandaunt Queenie. I’ll be back in a jiffy.”
“This is obviously your doll, yet you insist on making me do it… Alright, go on.” Queenie complained as she took the doll from Cherry, who skipped over to Pete and Xander.
The three little ones got together.
Nora rested her chin on her palm and watched curiously as the two brothers educated their younger sister who had been led astray.
Xander coughed and started the lecture. He said, “Cherry, after thinking about it for a long while, I don’t think it’s right that you keep on playing games like this every day. Do you want to grow up into an adult who doesn’t know anything but playing games??”
Cherry looked crushed at once. She lowered her head, twiddled her thumbs, and said sadly, “But I really wanna play games. Are you also going to tell me what to do when Mommy is already doing so?” Xander nodded. “Yes. As the eldest among us, this is my responsibility. Moreover, we both feel that you are not doing the right thing.” “Really?”
Cherry looked at Pete. “Do you think so too, Pete?”
Xander also looked at Pete.
However, after pondering for a while, Pete looked at Xander and said, “Why don’t we relax our supervision on Cherry, Xander? As elder brothers, we can support her for a lifetime anyway.”
Cherry’s eyes lit up at once and she said, “Pete is the best!”
Xander: “???”
Cherry then glared at him and said, “I don’t like you anymore!”
Xander: “!!!!”
After Cherry spoke, she hugged Pete and said, “Pete, let’s go play together!”
Pete was very reserved. He said reluctantly, “… I don’t like playing with dolls, but for your sake… Sigh, alright.”
The two walked toward Queenie hand in hand.
Xander: “…”
Xander stood on the spot, dumbfounded.
Only then did he realize that he had been tricked!
At the side, Nora’s lip corners spasmed.
Was there such intense competition between boys with sister complexes these days?!
Do they have to start a battle of wits and courage just to win their younger sister’s favor now?
Justin, who was next to her, also found the sight unbearable to watch.
Pete was too devious! The family had fun all afternoon. This continued until the Queen called in the evening. With a listless look on her face, she asked, “Has Black Cat returned or not?”
Nora: “?”
No, really, so much time had already passed. Why was she still hung up over Black Cat?!
She replied, “She’s gone back.” “Okay.” The Queen hung up on her right away.
Nora was rendered a little speechless by the Queen. After the children fell asleep at night, she took a look at the clock-it was time to pick up Ian at the airport.
Both Nora and Justin’s identities had already been exposed in front of each other, so they headed to the airport together.
However, Justin kept wearing a black mask and moved about as King.
Justin drove while Nora sat in the passenger seat.
After a while, her cell phone suddenly rang.
This was Black Cat’s phone.
When she answered, a woman’s familiar voice came from the other end. “Black Cat, have you gone back?”
Nora: “?????”
No, really, what was the Queen doing?!
She had just called her to ask if Black Cat had returned, and now she was calling Black Cat to ask if she had returned!
It wasn’t like she would go missing, right?
The corners of her lips spasmed and she replied, “Yes, I’m back.”
“Oh, that’s great.”
After saying that, the Queen suddenly heaved a sigh. “I was worried that you might have been caught and detained by Nora Smith. Her eyes are really sharp. You’d better keep your distance from King… By the way, I forgot to tell you that King and Nora Smith are in a relationship, so you’d better not mess with them. You didn’t see how infuriating Nora was… She actually made use of me to catch someone! I’m so mad! If she wanted me to cooperate, couldn’t she just say so? I’m not an unreasonable person. I think she is deliberately making things difficult for me! Of all people, why was my strongest bodyguard the murderer?”
