Filed To Story: The Plan of Saving Nora Novel Free
Yvonne: “!!”
She bit her lip, her fingers trembling in anger.
Usually, when she went out, she would be the one paying among her best friends. Now, she was borrowing some money from them, but all of them were actually so wishy-washy!
However, no matter how much she looked down on her, she could only send her a humble message: “Just lend me $800. $200 is fine too.”
The other party: “I saw a bag and planned to buy it, so I really don’t have any money. Sorry!”
Yvonne: “!!”
She could only switch to another person and continue trying. However, the other party rejected her as well. She continued to ask a few people until someone reminded her: “You should stop trying to borrow money. No one in the circle will lend you money.”
Yvonne’s pupils shrank. [Why?]
The other party: “This is an information age. We all heard that you were chased out of the Smiths by your brother. The Smiths have a high status in New York. Other than the Hunts, who would dare to lend you money? We’re all afraid of your brother!”
Yvonne: “!!!”
She stared at the message on her phone and realized a terrifying fact.
No matter how powerful her father was… no matter how much Joel respected her father, he was already old!
The Smiths had long belonged to Joel!
This fact made her feel as if she had been severely injured. Her feet went soft and she fell to the ground.
She was done for.
She was really finished for offending her brother this time!
She returned to the villa dejectedly and sat on the sofa.
That night, she turned on all the lights in the room, but still kept trembling in fear in the silent night.
It was not until the next morning, when the sun rose, that she suddenly realized that she could not be locked up in this villa without a neighbor to die alone!
Absolutely not!
She took out her phone and made a call…
At the Smiths, Nora asked Lily, “What was the outcome?”
Lily’s voice did not fluctuate, and one could not tell if she was happy or angry. “It’s an electronic version. I sent it to your email. The paper version is in my hands. I’ll send it to you right now.”
Yesterday, when she returned to California, she took the umbilical cord blood and rushed the test overnight. She had found a testing facility in New York. Personally handling the test to ensure no one could tamper with it, Lily had not slept the entire night.
Although she did not say it, Nora roughly understood the meaning of the outcome.
If she and Ian were not biological father and daughter, there was no need for Lily to send another test report back…
Nora narrowed her eyes and looked out the window.
Although she had already guessed her identity, she still felt an inexplicable and complicated feeling when this moment came.
Her father…
Just as she was deep in thought, her phone suddenly rang. She glanced at it and realized that it was Joel. She hung up on Lily and picked up his call.
Just as she was about to speak, Joel’s serious voice sounded.. “Nora, come to the hospital immediately. Uncle Ian is vomiting blood!”
He had vomited blood?
Nora’s eyes narrowed. She hurriedly said, “Okay, I’ll be right there.”
No matter what, saving Ian was more important!
In the hospital.
Joel was panicking outside the operating theater. Ian suddenly vomiting blood caught him off guard. At this moment, his vital signs had already calmed down and he was once again pulled back from death.
However, the attending doctor said, “Mr. Ian was saved this time, but next time, we can’t guarantee anything. He’s still in a coma. We have to think of a way to deal with the brain tumor.”
Joel said directly, “I’ve already called Anti over.”
When the attending doctor heard this, he hesitated. When Joel saw him like this, he could not help but ask, “What’s wrong?”
The attending doctor sighed. “A few days ago, Anti could still perform the surgery and barely save him. But now, Mr. Ian’s body is too weak. Just now, there was blood in his lungs, and we also performed the surgery on him. His body is no longer suitable for surgery. Sigh!”
No longer suitable for surgery…
What did this mean?
Joel grabbed his hand. “What did you say?”
The attending doctor slowly retracted his hand and said, “Mr. Joel, you… should prepare for a funeral!” before slowly retreating and leaving.
Joel stood there and frowned.
He looked at the ICU ward again.
At this moment, footsteps suddenly came from the end of the corridor.
Joel turned back and saw that the elders from the old residence had arrived.
He narrowed his eyes and welcomed them. “Granduncle, why are you here?”
This Granduncle was Ian’s third uncle. He used to be a glorious direct descendant, but ever since he moved to the old residence, he only took the Smiths’ dividend and did not ask about anything else.
Under normal circumstances, they would only appear if something unfair happened to the Smiths.
However, this Granduncle did not get along with Ian.
Back then, Ian refused to marry for the sake of Yvette. In granduncle’s eyes, he had already become an anomaly. Joel knew that granduncle had repeatedly scolded Ian for being selfish and completely disregarding his future generations. He did not even have a direct successor!
Granduncle even said that even if he did not get married, he could just have a child, but Ian had rejected all of them.
Back then, Ian’s methods were iron-blooded. The entire Smith family was exceptionally obedient under his thunderous methods. How could Granduncle be Ian’s match?
He had forcefully sent him back to the old residence and even sent him a message: “Take care of yourself. Don’t be a busybody.”
Granduncle had been furious, but he could not do anything to Ian.
According to what Joel knew, this Granduncle was guarding the ancestral old residence. The fun he had every day was cursing Ian. Every day, he would scold him. It had almost become his daily routine!
Ever since Ian fell ill, Granduncle had felt even more satisfied. Joel heard that he waited at home every day for news of his death.
Nothing good would come of him running here now!
Sure enough, the walking stick in the hands of this 80-year-old man hit him directly. “Unfilial son! Don’t you know why I’m here?”
Joel was not stupid. He dodged his attack, his eyes slightly cold. “Granduncle, what do you mean?”
“What do I mean?” The wrinkles on Granduncle’s face furrowed as he scolded, “Your Uncle Ian isn’t dead yet, but you can’t wait to chase his daughter out?”
When Joel heard this, his eyes narrowed.
With that, Granduncle moved aside to reveal Yvonne behind the crowd.
Yvonne’s eyes were red. She lowered her head and was crying silently. She looked up at Joel and said in a choked voice, “Joel, big brother, I was wrong. Let me go home!”
When he saw her, Joel narrowed his eyes.
His lips curled into a mocking smile.
Granduncle had always been at odds with Ian. Why would he be so righteous as to “help his adopted daughter?”
In fact, when Ian was seriously ill a few years ago, Granduncle had sent someone to contact him, hinting that he would take Ian down and control the Smiths.
