L’s face was still as he watched Nora move closer to udia. He hesitated for a moment but ultimately didn’t stop her. Stopping Nora from interacting with udia now would only make things worse.
“Nora, sweetie! Do you miss mommy?” udia held out her arms and asked.
Suddenly, a flower pot came hurtling down from above! Judging by its speed and trajectory, it was likely to hit Nora.
L’s expression changed immediately as he moved to protect his daughter. But surprisingly, udia reacted even faster than L did. She rushed towards Nora and held the child in her arms for protection.
With a whooshing sound, the flower pot narrowly missed hitting udia on the head. She closed her eyes at that moment, struggling internally before finally gritting her teeth and not moving. She knew it was just an empty flower pot!
If it had hit her head she might have suffered some cuts or bruises at worst or maybe even mild concussion but there would be no life-threatening danger.Content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.
Watching what happened next made L’s pupils shrink slightly: just before the flowerpot could hit udia on the head, he struck out with his hand and smashed it into pieces that rained down all over both of them.
But fortunately there were no injuries beyond minor cuts from broken pottery shards scattered all over their clothes!
“Nora! Are you okay?” udia blinked rapidly then turned to look at Nora anxiously while holding onto her tightly in case something else fell down unexpectedly again.
The little girl looked up with tears in her big eyes as she shooked her head slowly while staring at the broken pieces of pottery scattered around them, “Nora is fine… Mommy are you hurt?”
“Good! As long as you’re okay then mommy can handle anything!” replied udia hugging Nora tightly like any loving mother would do when they feel their child is threatened or scared.
Nora let out a wail and started to cry. She was so moved that she was sobbing uncontrobly.
The shadow that udia had left on herst time seemed to have vanished in an instant.
At this point L furrowed his brow deeply without realizing that someone had secretly recorded this “heartwarming scene”.
In the photo takenter on, L stood beside them watching silently while udia hugged little Nora close like they were mother-and-daughter reunited after years apart…
“L! I knew you couldn’t bear to see me get hurt!”
“I knew it, you still have me in your heart…”
At this moment, udia let go of Nora and stood up with a moved expression.
“You’re thinking too much.”
“Nora,e with me!”
L shook his head expressionlessly and picked up Nora in the next second, walking away in big strides! He didn’t know what tricks udia was ying or whether she was really blocking the flowerpot for Nora or acting with someone else’s cooperation. In his heart, L couldn’t believe that a selfish woman like her could suddenly be so great.
But he didn’t matter. Nora had already been moved by udia and recognized her as her mother again. This was something L didn’t want to see! He couldn’t let Nora have any more contact with udia!
“L, how can you bear it?” Behind him came udia’s unwilling and sad cry.
“Mom… wahhh… mom!”
“Dad, can I stay with mom for a while longer? Dad…”
Nora cried out reluctantly while being held by L. She even stretched out her little hand towards udia’s direction.
L frowned deeply and looked extremely ugly. Without saying anything more he quickened his pace.
In the ck-tinted Cadic car Kayden looked at these photos sent to his phone screen with a triumphant smile on his face. At this time, his phone rang.
“Mr. Austin!” Kayden quickly answered respectfully.
“Have you taken care of L yet?” Isa asked coldly.
Kayden panicked at these words, “Not yet.”
“Waste! Waste! Didn’t you get that Suppressing Talismanst time? Why haven’t you killed that guy yet?” Isa scolded fiercely.
“Mr. Austin…I’m not sure if that Suppressing Talisman is real or fake! What if it’s fake…”
Kayden said bitterly although he confirmed from Graham family members’ mouths that there were energy fluctuations on the Suppressing Talisman; he even asked Summer about it.
“But I’m still not sure if it really works or not; I need more time to confirm its effectiveness.”
“You waste!” Isa said angrily, “If you can’t take care of Lachen before tonight then be ready for your funeral!”
Kayden became even more frightened when he heard this because he knew Isa wasn’t joking around; if he failed toplete the task, then he would be facing life-threatening danger.
Kayden was a coward at heart, so he didn’t dare to gamble. “You go to hell! Useless! I suspect now that you swallowed the 50 million from me and never actually bought the item,” Isa gritted her teeth and asked.
Hearing this, Kayden shuddered and quickly exined, “I wouldn’t dare! Mr. Austin, even if you gave me a hundred guts, I still wouldn’t do it! I… I was just thinking that killing Willis might be too easy for him. As they say, kill the heart before killing the person. Wouldn’t it be more clever to let that guy taste what it’s like to lose everything before dying in bitterness and pain? It would relieve our anger.”
Isa interrupted him with a grunt of impatience, “Enough talk – what’s your n?”
Kayden then reported his n to Isa.
After listening carefully, Isa sneered a few times, “Good! If we can make Mirandapletely disappointed in him or even disgusted by him before killing him off – that would be best! Otherwise if I get Mirandater on but she still has another man in her heart… it’ll be like having a fishbone stuck in my throat!”
He continued sternly, “You better handle this well because there will be great rewards for sess.”
“Yes sir! Thank you Mr. Austin!” Kayden nodded repeatedly through his phone.
As soon as he hung up the phone call with Isa, someone suddenly knocked on his car window from outside. Kayden looked out of the window only to see udia standing there waiting for an answer.
“Kayden, how did my mission go?” udia asked excitedly as she got into his car.
“Not bad! Not bad! Hahaha…” Kayden replied while patting udia’s thigh directly with one hand.
“You yed such an amazing role as mother today; radiating endless maternal love brilliance! People always say great mothers are beautiful; now seeing it firsthand is truly amazing! Hehehe…”
With an evil grin on his face, Kayden kept touching her leg without restraint while udia blushed slightly but eventually pulled away from him saying, “Hey, you’re annoying me, Kayden. Stop doing this…”
“What? Why? You’ve already had child; you’re not some innocent girl anymore. What are you pretending for?” Kayden frowned unhappily at her words.
L’s ex-wife had a seductive aura that made Kayden feel uneasy. udia’s face looked unnatural as she yfully said, “No way! Isn’t this all about breaking up L and the Lowe family heiress? What if something happens between us and I happen to seduce L while he smells another man on me? That would ruin everything, wouldn’t it?”
“That useless waste of space used to care so much about what scent was on my body. He remembered it like a dog,” udia continued.
Kayden hesitated for a moment before snorting in response and dropping the subject.
