Chapter 12

  • The Quade frowned when they heard Julius’s words.
  • They did not try to hide their displeasure. The night before, they received a series of strange shots. It's one of those doomed-to-fail things that you can watch for 5 seconds and never save. It was clearly visible even for 5 seconds.
  • The girl in the photo was none other than Nancy Willard! It seems Nancy has only been pretending to be innocent, how could they allow such an ill mannered girl to be with their son?
  • "No! I don't believe in Willard family’s honesty anymore!" said Mrs Quade firmly.
  • Hearing her words,Mr.Quade agreed. "Julius, don't worry. We will find you the perfect woman. We've had enough of both the daughters of the Willard family!”
  • Judging by the expressions on Quade parents' faces, they turned down the offer, much to the dismay of Willard parents.
  • Even if they don't like Nora.It was understandable but what makes them hate Nancy as well?
  • Julius turned to look at Nancy calmly.He took her hand and said seriously. "Nancy, please wait. I will persuade my parents. I will definitely marry you!"
  • The reporter's eyes immediately lit up upon hearing this.It was a big news! They excitedly raised their VCRs and cameras to get a good shot.
  • In response, the Willard returned to the living room in anger and took it out after the reporters left. "Whatdo they think of themselves? We offered to trade Nora for Nancy.Why did you refuse?”
  • Mr. Willard drummed his fists on the sofa, blushing with anger.
  • Mrs.Willard consoled her husband by patting him on the back. "Don't destroy your own body.Anger is not good for your health"
  • Nancy closed her eyes and began to cry. “Mom, dad, I've been through a lot, but they still reject me! How can I get married to anyone in the future! Who will marry a girl with a tainted reputation like me!?”
  • “Stop crying, my love. If outsiders don't want you, it's their loss! We'll find you someone better! I can't figure out what happened to them. They love you!" Willard rubbed his temples in confusion.
  • Nancy's eyes lit up with a mischievous glint. “Is it because of Nora that people came and thought that I was the same as her? Why is Nora like this? What if she has not only ruined my reputation, but also ruined the reputation of the Willard Group in the long run…”
  • As she said that, Nancy started wailing uncontrollably.
  • Mr.Willard, already angry, immediately blamed Nora. "Of course! That selfish and ungrateful child! She doesn't help her family and gives us more trouble!"
  • Mr. Willard knocked on the sofa a few more times. "Bring her to me now!"
  • Mrs. Willard immediately tugged on Nora's collar and brought her down from her room.
  • "I'll ask you one last time: do you want to have an abortion or not?" Mr. Willard looked at Nora with a face full of rage and stared at her.
  • Nora clutched her stomach tightly, defiantly. “No, if you decide to kill my child, then you can only continue to kill my son when I’m already dead!"
  • Mr. Willard began to clap his hands and smiled mockingly. "Exceptionally good. You can leave the Willard household while keeping your child! I'll never remember giving birth to you! My only daughter is Nancy going forward! The Willards and you won't be in contact anymore!"
  • Mrs. Willard and Nancy froze as they heard Mr. Willard's declaration.
  • "Darling, let's give it some serious thought"
  • Nancy scoffed while lowering her head.Everything was going as she had planned.
  • Mr.Willard spoke. "What else is there to consider? Nancy's life has already been destroyed by Nora, and we have no idea what tomorrow's headlines will be! Maintaining her here would only result in anarchy and more disaster for the Willard family’s reputation “
  • Nora scowled and retreated a short distance.“ So, mum and dad, you decide to abandon me because you have no use for me any longer, is that it?”
  • A piece of luggage was delivered to Mr. Willard by a servant. "Sir, all of the second young miss's possessions are here."
  • Mr.Willard looked at the expression on Norah’s face and she looked very determined.
  • Seeing this,Mr. Willard kicked Nora's luggage. "Do not call us your parents. We are no longer your family as of right now. Take your belongings and leave the Willard mansion immediately—you are not my daughter!"
  • Without speaking, Nora bent down to pick up her bag into her arms.
  • Seeing Nora struggle, Nancy approached Nora to help her but Feinted a fall by cheating the angles as she held onto the luggage and heavily landed on the ground.
  • Nora instinctively tried to stop Nancy from falling but was unable to.
  • It appeared to the parents as though Nora had shoved Nancy to the ground intentionally.
  • "Ouch! Nora, that hurts. I am trying my best to help you, even though I know you were angry with me. What else do you expect from me, given that I even had my reputation damaged?"
  • With her face covered in tears and the misery of having been wronged, Nancy glanced up at Nora.
  • Nancy was promptly assisted in standing up by Mrs. Willard. She appeared angry. "You're too conceited, Nora! Perhaps your father's choice was the right one after all—It’s time you grow up!"
  • Seeing Nora tease him repeatedly nearly destroyed Mr. Willard's self-control because he had always been quite easily irritated.
  • Nora shook her head at the snobbish Nancy on the floor while grinning icily.
  • She knelt down and picked up her bag once more, then smacked it where Nancy had touched it in contempt.
  • "Nancy, it's a shame you didn't become an actor with your skills," Nora said.
  • Nora was then taken to the front door by Mr. Willard, who grabbed hold of her collar before pushing her outside. It didn't matter to him if she was carrying a child at that moment.
  • Nora struggled mightily to maintain her equilibrium while holding on to the suitcase. When she turned her head back up, the closed door was the only thing in her field of vision.
  • Nora shook her head and without pausing turned around and walked out of the Willard estate.
  • The reporters and paparazzi who had been hiding behind the scene from the Willard family before rushed up to Nora as soon as she stepped outside.
  • " Miss Nora, please! Do you really remember sleeping with an elderly man?"
  • " Miss Nora, please! Why did you choose to sleep with someone so old? Do you have anything you can share with us?"
  • "Miss Nora, are you being sent away from home? Is that why you are out here with your luggage?"
  • "There is a notion that Miss Nora damaged your sister's reputation. Do you have any feedback on that you would like to share?"
  • ****
  • Nora immediately furrowed her brows as she was surrounded by people, yet she still protected her tummy.
