Filed To Story: The Plan of Saving Nora Novel Free
His attitude convinced Nora that the man might really have bombed the whole Horgen District, had her aunt not helped her deal with the bomb there.
If one were to say that Nora had felt that Barbarian and the others only became what they were today because of the cruel things that the mysterious organization had done to them, then she no longer held any sympathy for Barbarian at this point.
Life should be respected, not toyed with as though it was worth nothing!
Barbarian must exist only to take revenge on society, right?
Nora did not say anything else.
Barbarian, on the other hand, suddenly said, “The two gene serums are with you, right? But I’m telling you this: do not attempt to inject your son with the gene serum!”
Nora was a little taken aback. “Why?”
“Heh, when I was a child, I lived with four other children. Do you know how the four of them died? When they were injected with the seventh and eighth doses, the interval between those two doses was shorter than half the interval between the previous ones…”
Nora suddenly realized something. She asked, “Are you saying that one would also die if they are injected with the V16 too early?” “Of course. Otherwise, why would we suddenly only start searching frantically for you during the last two years?”
Barbarian sneered and said, “It’s because all of us have only less than three months left, yet the drug cannot be injected in advance. You’ve only just injected your son with the V15, right? Then you’ll have to wait at least two months before you can inject him with the V16.”
Nora didn’t believe Barbarian, but she didn’t dare to disregard his words either.
She was afraid that something would go wrong.
Barbarian would never tell her all this out of the kindness of his heart, though. Sure enough, the next moment, he said, “If you don’t believe me, then feel free to ask Caleb Gray about it. Of course, I’m not telling you all this out of kindness; rather, it’s because I can’t get back in time. I’m afraid that you would be in a hurry and inject your son with the serum first.”
Nora: “…”
Well, that made sense.
She hung up on Barbarian and went to Caleb.
Caleb’s operation had just ended. With his rib broken, he would have to be bedridden and rest for a while, no matter what. She asked Caleb about the authenticity of Barbarian’s claims and he told her that what he said was true.
“It seems that I’ll have to find a place to store the serum and wait for a month to pass before I can inject Xander with it?”
Nora felt uneasy.
She had finally obtained the serum after much difficulty but she was now being told that she had to wait another month.
Who knew what other unforeseen events might occur during this one month’s time?!
Caleb also felt awfully helpless. He sighed and said, “Yes, that’s right. Also, since Trueman is watching Barbarian, he must also know that the serums are with you. While Barbarian is also a fearsome existence, Trueman is not to be trifled with either. I’d suggest that you stay cautious during this one month’s time.”
A resigned Nora nodded.
A safe place…
She hardly knew of any safe places.
What was she going to do about this?
She wondered if Justin had any?
At the thought of Justin, though, Nora couldn’t help but gnash her teeth.
Where had that scumbag gone while she was slaving away here?! Nora inwardly gave the man a piece of her mind in secret. With the school on lockdown and even the explosion on the bridge, she didn’t believe that Justin wasn’t aware of their situation.
Since he wasn’t contacting them, it meant that he might be doing something more important.
Nora had only just thought of this when her cell phone rang.
When she answered, her aunt’s voice came from the opposite end: “Cherry and the others are here with me. When are you coming over?”
Nora heaved a silent sigh and replied, “Now, I guess.”
It had been a very long time since she had last seen her aunt.
Nora drove to the castle where Queenie lived.
Over the years, NTT had become the largest company in Switzerland after it was founded by Queenie. Moreover, she loved living a luxurious lifestyle, so she had built a castle in the country.
The castle was an impregnable fortress. Even if Barbarian knew that they were here, unless he dropped a nuclear bomb on the castle, it was impossible for him to blow up the place.
All the architecture she saw along the way as she drove was European-style, the castle was gorgeous.
As soon as Nora’s car arrived at the entrance of the castle, the huge iron gates opened automatically. There, John, the butler, greeted her in person. When he saw Nora, he said with a smile, “Good day, Ms. Nora.”
Nora nodded at John. However, she did not get out of the car but continued driving further into the castle.
It took more than ten minutes to drive from the entrance to the place where Queenie lived, which went to show just how expansive the castle grounds were.
At last, the car stopped in front of a villa. Nora had only just parked the car when Cherry, Pete, and Xander came running out of the villa.
Cherry hugged Nora and said, “Mommy, I miss you so much! It’s only been a day but it feels like forever since I last saw you!”
Pete also grabbed her hand and looked up at her fondly.
Nora took the opportunity to squat down and give Cherry a kiss. She also pecked Pete on the cheek. Pete’s cheeks were all red and he was very content.
Xander adopted a cocky act and snorted derisively when he saw the two children’s behavior. He commented, “You two haven’t weaned off your mom’s milk yet, have you?”
But Nora grabbed him and kissed him on the cheek too.
Xander immediately put on a disgusted expression. As he wiped off the non-existent saliva on his cheek, he said, “Yuck, don’t you find that filthy?”
His eyes, however, were sparkling.
At a young age, he had already learned to say one thing when he really meant another.
Nora ruffled his hair and then led the three children into the villa.
Nora felt exceptionally relaxed, both physically and mentally, here.
Back then, after her aunt took her away, she’d lived here for five years. This place was like her real home and was also the first place to have given her a sense of security.
Upon entering the living room, she looked at the woman sitting on the sofa.
The woman was in her forties, yet she looked like she was only in her early thirties. When she stood next to Nora, one would believe it even if they were told that the two of them were sisters.
She gave off a different feeling from Iris.
Iris was like a celestial maiden, ethereal with an otherworldly beauty.
Queenie, however, was arrogant and flamboyant. Clad in a red silk nightdress, her nails were painted scarlet and she held a glass of red wine in her hand as she leaned against the sofa. Her eyes were bright and teasing as she looked at Nora. “Wow, you actually remembered to come home?”
Nora smiled and sat beside her. She took her arm and said, “Hi, Aunt Queenie.”
Queenie snorted and said, “And here I thought you’ve already forgotten that you still have an aunt in me. You’re really something now, aren’t you? To think you didn’t come to me after you came to Switzerland, ha!”
Nora: “.”
Cherry ran over and hugged Queenie’s arm. She said, “Don’t be mad at Mommy, Grandaunt Queenie! Mommy really misses you very much, it’s just that she has a bit of work to do. She was afraid that you won’t let her work if she came back, that’s why she stayed elsewhere instead! Although we didn’t come back, we still thought of you every day~”
Queenie immediately put her arms around Cherry and pecked her on the cheek. “Oh, my precious little baby. Why is your tongue so sweet?”
Cherry burst into giggles.
Nora also breathed a sigh of relief.
Her aunt had a bad temper, and when she got mad, it scared even her.
Back then, when she gave birth in the States and almost died, her aunt had returned to the country and then taken her abroad without a word. But after that, she had ignored her for half a year.
Nora and her aunt had been in contact since she was a child. Her aunt had even wanted to take her abroad when she unexpectedly became pregnant, but Nora had refused.
At that time, she had felt that staying in the country would be more comfortable since there was no one bothering her.
This led to her nearly having a lethal complication that year.
After being mad at her for half a year, her aunt finally broke the silence and spoke to her only because Cherry was simply too adorable.
