Filed To Story: The Plan of Saving Nora Novel Free
The confusion in Old Maddy’s eyes had lessened a little. He touched his head and frowned, seemingly pondering about something.
The butler immediately became excited when he saw his reaction.
Although everyone had heard of acupuncture, they were still shocked and astonished when they actually saw it for themselves. After all, few people practiced it. Also, the needle was so long that it felt like it could penetrate right through someone’s entire brain.
That was why they were so shocked by Nora’s actions.
However, when the butler saw that Old Maddy’s condition really did seem to have improved, he swallowed again and asked, “How do you feel?”
Old Maddy took a bite of the hamburger and slowly said, “I wanna sleep.”
Pretty much right after he said that, his grip loosened and the hamburger dropped onto the floor. The man also lay down on the bed.
He had fallen asleep.
This was an aftereffect of acupuncture and was very normal.
With that in mind, Nora picked up the needle and pierced him with it another two times.
Alternative medicine took effect very slowly. Given the extent of Old Maddy’s illness, if she wanted to stimulate his nerves, it would take at least half a month before significant effects showed.
This was just the first day of treatment, so it wasn’t suitable to go too far.
Nora put the needles away after piercing him with them thrice.
Next to her, the butler, who saw Old Maddy fall asleep, couldn’t help but ask, “Ms. Nora, what’s the matter with him?”
Nora replied, “He’s alright. He’ll be fine after he wakes up.”
She stood up straight and stretched.
To other people, all she did was just jab Old Maddy with a needle thrice.
However, she was the only one who knew just how tiring the process was. Not only was a high degree of concentration required, but she also had to be accurate in locating the acupoints.
Old Maddy’s head was covered in burns, which made the acupoints really hard to find.
After piercing the needles into his head, she also had to control the needle’s force and depth. All of these were factors that she had to respond to and adjust on-site.
She yawned and left, planning to go to the tournament.
The two matches today were still as boring as ever.
All of Nora, Justin, and Quentin’s opponents were Class B and Class C martial artists, so they easily gave them a thrashing and bulldozed their way.
There was no doubt about their victory. After winning the two matches, Nora and Justin walked out of the venue with Cherry in the latter’s arms.
Quentin followed behind them. As they walked, he asked, “Who exactly are you guys? What are you taking part in the tournament for? There aren’t that many married couples in New York who are as strong as the two of you, and you even have a daughter…”
Quentin didn’t think that they might be Nora and Justin at all.
Nora needed his protection, so she was likely at home at the moment.
As for Justin, he was the Irvin School of Martial Arts’ Big Brother. Even though not many knew about it, there were still quite a few people who were aware of it. He should be in the lounge waiting to take photos with people at the moment!
Quentin didn’t think that it was beneath Justin for him to take photos with people, either. After all, even a genius like him craved success and basking in the limelight.
After the last few matches, he had also gained fans of his own. Having people look for him to take photos with him made him feel as if he was on cloud nine.
Besides, while Justin had a son, he didn’t have a daughter!
Nora and Justin exchanged a look and ignored Quentin.
Nora asked Justin, “Where are you going?”
“Home, I guess. What about you?”
“Home, too.”
Justin took the opportunity to ask, “Let’s have dinner together before we go back?”
“Nah,” Nora replied casually, “We can’t abandon the other one.”
Pete was still at home. Never mind that the three of them didn’t bring him along when they came here every day to have fun, but if they also dined together without him, they would be going too far.
Although Justin wanted very much to spend more time with Nora, he could only abandon the idea when he heard her reply.
The two chatted and went to the car park while ignoring Quentin.
Quentin: “…”
Nora went home. When she reached the Smith manor’s entrance in her car, she happened to bump into Quentin, who had been extremely bored at the arena.
At the sight of her returning home from outside, Quentin frowned and stopped behind Nora silently. He said, “Didn’t I tell you not to go out if there’s nothing important? I’m busy lately, so I don’t have the time to follow you around.”
Nora: “?”
Quentin sighed. “If you had half of No. 028’s skill, I wouldn’t have to do this for you anymore. You’ve taken up all my time, so I don’t have any time to practice building rapport with No. 028 at all.”
Nora: “???”
Nora was terribly amused. It seemed like the right time to have a good chat with the young man, and let him know how strong she was.
She said calmly, “You don’t have to follow me around.”
Then, without waiting for Quentin’s response, she went up the stairs.
Quentin: “…”
He stared angrily after Nora. He was about to say something mean when, for some reason, he suddenly found her kinda familiar to the eye.
Although she was wearing trousers whereas No. 028 was always in either a long black or red dress, the two of them actually looked somewhat similar from the back.
He must be mistaken.
No. 028 was such a frank and straightforward person. How could she possibly be Nora?
Just like how No. 820’s physique was similar to Big Brother’s, there were a ton of people in the world with similar body builds!
Quentin shook his head and dispelled the thought. At this point, someone walked over from a short distance away, giving Quentin such a shock that he hurriedly hid into the dark.
He had become so accustomed to being in the limelight at the underground arena that he had actually forgotten to hide, causing himself to almost expose his existence to the Smiths’ servants.
After Nora entered the living room, she had pretty much rid herself of Quentin. He would never openly show up in front of others.
Pete was already home and was currently playing blocks with Mia.
Mia spoke softly, so even though Pete felt that what she was playing with was very boring, he nevertheless accompanied her with a frown.
The simple-minded Brandon circled around the two. He said, “Mia, why are you so stupid?! You can’t do that there… Ah! It collapsed!”
Mia pouted and stared at Brandon in silence.
Brandon panicked. “Hey, don’t cry. Little crybaby, please don’t cry. I won’t touch your things anymore, okay?”
Pete heaved a sigh. He slowly bent over and easily arranged Mia’s blocks back into the previous state for her.
Mia cheered up and said, “Thank you, Cherry.”
Pete replied stoically and habitually, “You’re welcome… yeah.”
Nora: “…”
Why was her son talking so weirdly? Cough.
While she was thinking about it, Pete, who seemingly sensed her looking at him, looked over. The little boy’s dark eyes lit up at once and he called out, “Mommy.”
He sounded a bit like he was wheedling.
Nora raised her eyebrows, immediately realizing that the little fellow must have something to ask of her. She nodded and went up the stairs.
When she entered the bedroom on the upper floor and looked behind her, sure enough, she saw Pete closing the door.
Nora sat on the sofa casually. “What’s the matter?”
Pete walked up to her at a snail’s pace. The hesitant boy observed her facial expression again and again before he finally asked, “Mommy, can you ask God-mom to teach Mia how to dance?”
Nora was surprised. “You want Tanya to teach Mia how to dance?”
“Yeah.”
Pete frowned and said, “Mia likes dancing very much. Whenever we have dance classes, she always hides outside the door and secretly learns how to dance together with us. God-mom has already spotted her several times, but she just doesn’t take her as a student.”
Nora licked her lips. “Okay, I’ll ask her about it.”
