Filed To Story: The Plan of Saving Nora Novel Free
Justin left the Hunts’ manor.
As soon as he left, Mrs. Hunt walked over with the help of the housekeeper. She sighed and said, “It’s only been a day that he didn’t see her, yet he’s already unable to hold himself back?”
The housekeeper said, “Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Besides, with the news of the Smiths looking for a son-in-law, Master Hunt must be terribly anxious.”
Mrs. Hunt snorted. “I didn’t hear anything about them looking for a son-in-law, but I did hear something else!” “What?”
“As expected, the Smiths’ young lady is a hillbilly who has never seen the world! She had the audacity to challenge the alternative medicine circle! She can’t even see what she’s made of anymore! If someone like her becomes the matriarch of the family, she will definitely offend a lot of people and make a lot of enemies for the Hunts! My head hurts the moment I think of this!”
As the housekeeper held Mrs. Hunt’s arm, she asked, “She challenged the alternative medicine circle?”
“Yes!” Mrs. Hunt sighed and said, “Alternative medicine is extensive and profound, and the knowledge within is amazing. Do you remember the Zabe Corporation’s Calming Pill? Wasn’t it much more effective than modern medicine? From where exactly did a little surgeon like her find the courage to challenge the alternative medicine circle? The way I see it, the moment Dr. Zabe’s disciple takes action, he’ll crush her beneath his feet!”
The housekeeper frowned. “Will that bring trouble to the family?” Mrs. Hunt sneered, “It won’t go as far as that, but I do think this is something that’ll do her good! After all, once the competition is over, both the alternative and modern medicine circles will detest and despise her! With that, the Smiths will finally realize the position she’s in. It will be much easier for the Hunts to propose marriage after that!” The housekeeper was surprised. “You’re still intending to let her marry into the family?” Mrs. Hunt sighed. “Look at how Justin is behaving. If I don’t let her marry into the family, I will lose my grandson and great-grandchildren! I find the current situation pretty good. We’ll let outsiders suppress her arrogance first!”
“That’s true…”
After the conversation, Mrs. Hunt said, “Get ready. We will go to the Smiths to propose marriage two days later.” “Yes, ma’am.”
At the Smiths.
“They’ve got their marriage certificate?” Justin’s surprised voice traveled over through Cherry’s phone.
Cherry nodded. “Yeah! So Mia’s mom and dad can be together forever now! Daddy, will you and Mommy get a marriage certificate too?”
Nora was sitting on the sofa and reading a book about medicine. Upon hearing this, she subconsciously looked at her cell phone, upon which she heard Justin say, “As long as your mother agrees to it, I can do it anytime.”
Nora blinked and smiled.
Cherry and Pete chatted with Justin a little more. Then, Justin asked, “What is your mother doing?”
Cherry replied, “… She’s reading!” “Pass the phone to your mother.” Cherry handed the phone to Nora.
Nora put down the book and leaned back on the sofa lazily. “What is it?”
Justin coughed. “Put the phone off of speaker first.”
Nora raised her eyebrows and glanced at Cherry and Pete, who were looking at her eagerly. The two little fellows were just like two huge third wheels.
She turned off the speaker mode. “Speak.”
“Nora, I miss you.”
Nora: “!!”
When she heard this, she subconsciously glanced at the two kids again. For some reason, her cheeks suddenly felt a little warm.
She stretched out her hand and fanned herself. Then, she said, “And?”
“Come down.”
Nora was taken aback at his words.
She subconsciously got up, opened the door, and went downstairs. She left the living room and walked towards the parking lot.
It was very dark outside.
She had just walked under a big tree when someone suddenly grabbed her wrist. She was held down, and then a man’s familiar aura pounced on her.
Nora wanted to say something, but the next moment, her lips were sealed…
The little corner was very dark. Faint light passed through the area, revealing a man in a black suit pressing a woman half a head shorter than him against the wall. He cupped the woman’s cheek in one hand while his other wrapped around her waist. It looked as if he had her trapped there, but in truth, Nora was still a short distance away from the wall. Justin had done this so that the wall behind her wouldn’t make her cold…
The man’s large hands were scorching hot. The heat passed through her thin summer clothes, seemingly scalding her skin at the waist.
Nora subconsciously wanted to push him away, but her lips had been sealed by him.
The man’s lips were like jelly, soft and cool to the touch. When they made contact with Nora’s lips, it made her freeze in place.
Her eyes widened in surprise and she saw the man’s face right in front of her.
His eyes were dark and bottomless, saturated with burning passion and affection. In the dim light, the beauty mark at the corner of his eye seemed a little more alluring than usual.
His sharp and defined nose bridge, as well as his skin that seemed poreless even at such close distance, made Nora unable to put up any resistance whatsoever.
The New York skies had always been dull and gray. It was as if even the moon high up in the sky was hiding behind the clouds from shyness because of them.
Thump… Thump…
The violent pounding of heartbeats reached Nora through their chests, which were pressed against each other’s. At first, Nora thought the heartbeat was hers, but she suddenly realized that it was actually Justin’s…
The heartbeat seemed to possess some kind of captivating charm, which made her stop her hands from moving. Coupled with the man’s breathing, which was slightly heavier than usual, Nora’s cheeks slowly became burning hot.
She couldn’t help but swallow hard.
Then, she felt something cool on her forehead
—the man had rested his forehead against hers. The feeling on her lips had disappeared. His voice was a little hoarse as he said, “Nora, I missed you.”
Nora blinked. The man had already said that on the phone just now, but when the words rang in her ears in this instant, she felt as though there was a small, thin electric current slowly passing through her ears all the way to her heart.
She swallowed again.
Seemingly having sensed her reaction, the man suddenly let out a low chuckle.
Nora’s cheeks turned red. She was about to ask him what he was laughing at when the man suddenly sealed her lips again. But his kiss wasn’t like the one before. Instead, he tentatively parted his lips…
The man’s cool and clear breath, as well as the smell of vanilla, invaded her nose and mouth as if it wanted to take the air out of her lungs…
The man was domineering and dedicated. He invaded and swept through her territory greedily as though he loathed to spare even an inch of her…
The kiss ended.
Nora gasped for breath. For the first time, she realized that kissing actually took so much energy.
However, neither of them noticed that there were currently two heads staring at them from upstairs. One of them had a gloating look on his face while the other’s face had cracked a smile.
Two minutes ago.
An indignant Karl said, “My daughter has married your nephew just like that?”
Ian sat in the wheelchair calmly. “Duh, if not, then what else do you want?”
Karl paced back and forth. “There was no proposal, no asking for her hand in marriage from her parents, no nothing. Just like that, they have gotten married so hastily?” “… Hah.” Karl clutched his chest. “Can you put yourself in my shoes and think about it from another angle? Would you be willing to allow a man to abduct your daughter like that?”
“No,” answered Ian.
“Right? So you…”
But before he could finish, Ian sneered and said, “What I mean is, Justin had always slept in the guest room when he was staying with the Smiths! My daughter doesn’t care about him at all! She’s unlike Tanya, who grew up with Joel as childhood sweethearts, and is deeply in love with him. You can’t stop them at all. Therefore, my daughter will not be easily abducted by anyone. Sorry, but I can’t imagine myself in your shoes at all.”
Karl: “…”
The smug look on the man’s face was simply too annoying! If Ian wasn’t in a wheelchair and terribly weak, he would probably have gotten into a fistfight with him long ago!
