Chapter 176 A Supernatural Incident
After a while, lunch was served. The family happily finished their meal before Noah finally went to the
small building next door.
Sarah was annoyed, “We shouldn’t have agreed to meet with him. I don’t know what the Porters are up
to. Please don’t let them be here to deceive Noah.”
Afterughing, Freya asked, “What else could that ungrateful man be up to if not to deceive Uncle
Noah?”
“It’s toote to deceive him now. Your uncle has seen through him!” Sarah snorted angrily.
Ashley looked at Freya.
Freya smiled and exined, “That’s not necessarily true. I think Uncle Noah is too upright.”
“Freya.” With a gentle smile, Ashley urged, “Since your uncle is not here anymore, can you tell me the
whole story?”
That question took Freya by surprise. It seemed like her aunt was highly intelligent and observant.
After thinking for a moment, she exined in a low voice.
“On the day of Grandma’s birthday banquet, I went to thend that Uncle Noah bought-
At the smaller building next to the main building of the Marshall Residence.
Ernie knelt down in front of Noah with a tear and a regretful face.
“Noah, it’s all my fault. I pushed myself into this situation.”
Reeva’s eyes were red as she ced the contract on the table.
“Noah, please save our lives. If something happens to Ernie, the Porter family will be ruined.”
Noah looked at Ernie with mixed emotions.
After doing something so despicable, Ernie should face the consequences of his actions.
However, Noah thought such consequences seemed somewhat unrealistic.
When Ernie came today, he bowed and knelt on the ground, begging for forgiveness. It was only after
asking a few questions that Noah learned the truth.
Ernie’s father and his father had been friends for a lifetime and even asked Ernie to continue the
friendship between the two families before passing away.
After deceiving the Marshalls, Ernie had dreamt of his father for several nights in a row, scolding him
and saying he wanted to bring Ernie to the underworld with him.
At first, Noah didn’t believe the other, but Ernie and Reeve were crying and seemed terrified. They said
they saw the spirit of Ernie’s father at home at night and even heard him scolding them.
They couldn’t sleep and were in a daze.
Noah felt something strange but still sneered. “You deceived us out of 30 billion, but now you don’t
want it anymore?”
Reeve wiped her tears. “Noah, no matter how much money we have, even if it’s tens of billions,
hundreds of billions, or even all the money in the world, they’re not as important as our lives. Both of us
have been having health problems recently. Let us buy back thend, and we’ll add another 1 billion as
an apology.”
Meanwhile, Noah frowned as he had already read the contract several times.
It was the same purchase contract and without any ws.
Ernie’s name and the Porter family seal were all in ce and were justcking his signature.
Once he signed it, the deal would be finalized.
Noah was torn as he could feel something was not right, but the contract was wless.
On the one hand, the Porter couple were crying hysterically.
But Ernie had even put his reputation at stake to get that 30 billion, so how would he easily agree to
take everything back?
Could all of this happen just because of one supernatural event?
Of course, Noah didn’t believe in such things. However, when he looked at how Ernie and his wife were
crying, he felt a headacheing.
But no matter what, as long as there were no ws in the contract, Marshall Enterprise’s crisis could be
considered resolved.
After hesitating for a few minutes, Noah signed his name the moment Ernie came over and hugged his
leg.
He took away the contract with a cold expression and demanded, “I won’t give you the contract until I
receive the money.”
Noah immediately called the bank manager. After all, 30 billion was not a small amount, and the
Marshalls had also gone through several banks to take out the money back then.
Initially, Noah thought it would take a while for Ernie to process the transaction. But to his surprise, he
received a call from Marshall Enterprise’s finance department shortly after, saying that the 31 billion
had been deposited in their ount.
Then, Noah checked several of thepany’s bank ounts on his phone, and the strange feeling in
his heart grew stronger.
“Did you contact the bank before you came and expedite the transaction?” Noah furrowed his brow.
Ernie’s eyes were fixed on the contract in Noah’s hand while tears streamed down his face. “Noah, I
did this because I want to apologize to you. It can’t be dyed.”
Noah coldly nced at Ernie. “After what you’ve done, you don’t deserve to call me by my name. Ernie,
the rtionship between the Marshalls and the Porters ends here.”
As he spoke, he threw the contract at Ernie’s face.
Ernie grabbed the contract as if it were his lifeline.
Then, he eagerly took out his phone to take a picture and send it to the employees at Porter Group.
Noah frowned as he realized something was indeed wrong.
After sending the message, Ernic, who had been kneeling, let out a chillingugh.
Hisughter grew louder and louder.
“Hahaha. You can end our friendship all you want. Noah Marshall, you’re so stupid. You fell for my trick
once, and you’ve fallen for it again!”
Noah’s face turned cold. “What do you mean?”N?velDrama.Org content rights.
“You’re so stupid. How can youpare to me?” Ernie stood up and patted his knees. “I will soon
return the humiliation I suffered today to you. By then, I wouldn’t even spare you a nce even if you
kneel before me.”
After speaking, Ernie walked out with Reeve.
They no longer had the remorseful look they had when they arrived.
Once they were gone, Noah stood in the small building for a while.
Nothing couldn’t be wrong with thepany’s bank ounts, and the contract was wless.
In the end, he returned to the main building with a heavy andplicated expression.
Inside the main building, the Marshalls were all sitting in the living room.
Noah looked at Sarah when he entered the room. “Mom, thend has been returned to the Porters.”
Hearing that, Sarah narrowed her eyes. “So you did make a deal with Ernie.”
Ashley smiled beside her. “Freya has guessed it right. Noah fell for it again.”
Chuckling, Freya exined, “Uncle Noah fell for it because he is honest and has good morals. Ernie
has no limits and will do anything to get what he wants. Although he’s a disgusting person, he can
easily achieve. what he wants.”
“He’s still despicable even though he can achieve what he wants. What’s the point of living like that?”
Ryan
mocked.
Melissa cursed, “That b*stard Ernie, I hope he can’t-”
Ryan nced at her, and her mouth closed with a snap.
While the bunch was talking, Noah changed several expressions and asked, “What are you talking
about, Mom
Smiling, Freya looked at him. “Uncle Noah, did Ernie shamelessly beg you to sell him thend and then
immediately start acting arrogant after?”
“It was more than that. As soon as he got hold of the contract, he changed his attitude in three
seconds. It’s like he couldn’t wait to get his hands on it.” Noah’s face darkened, feeling disgusted at the
mention of
Ernie.
But…
“Why did he do that? Is there something special about thatnd?”
Ashley exined with a smile, “Of course there is. Someone discovered gold there and then found a
large deposit of gold within a kilometer away.”
Hearing that, Noah paled. “That piece ofnd is nearly a thousand square kilometers!”
Thatnd had mountainous terrain. Otherwise, the area of thatnd would be equivalent to a small city.
If there was a gold mine there, with such a huge concentration..
