Chapter 325


    With a series of smooth moves, Zora had everyone in the vicinity utterly bbergasted.


    They stared at each other, their eyes wide with disbelief, unsure of how to react to the spectacle before


    them.


    Then, someone murmured under their breath, “Holy smokes, that woman''s fierce! she is basically


    robbing them. She doesn''t even own the house, yet she''s acting like the owner!”


    Once someone broke the silence, others chimed in. Those who had been peeking out from behind their


    doors, now stepped out fully, eager to join the fray and witness themotion.


    “It’s over, we can’t touch her now. If she won’t open the door, what can you do?”


    “That woman’s tough as nails, got the guts to swoop right into someone else’s house!”


    “Maybe she’s got a good reason to stand her ground, otherwise why would she dare risk it?”


    The crowd’s murmurs grew nastier by the second, and I watched Jan closely, curious about his next


    move. If he just stood there, letting Zora p him in the face, I could step inter.


    Someone added fuel to the fire, “We should call the cops! If this gentleman says she’s just a nanny and


    she’s trying to harm them, then let’s involve the police! A nanny refusing to leave the property? That’s


    just bizarre.”


    “Exactly, why wait here? To call or not to call, I can do it for you.” This person was clearly not afraid of


    escting the situation. They even pulled out a phone, looking expectantly at Jan for the go-ahead.


    Jan’s face was turning livid with rage. He had been in a foul mood since morning, and it seemed he


    hadn''t had a chance to let off steam yet.Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Hearing the crowd’s instigations, it seemed likely he was about to unleash all his pent-up anger on


    Zora.


    I was biding my time, waiting for this moment.


    I wanted Jan to be the one to tear Zora apart, to show her that she was misreading his intentions,


    thinking he still had tender feelings for her. Only using Jan to go against her would she learn.


    Jan shot a severe look at the real estate agent Oakley and demanded, “Do you have a locksmith on


    call? Bring them here!”


    I thought to myself, not a bad move. It would avoid dealing with the cops and still get the door open to


    confront Zora.


    Oakley, hearing Jan’smand, lit up and responded, “You bet! We got people for that.”


    He quickly dialed a number and soon after, the locksmith hurried out of the elevator.


    But upon seeing the crowd in the hallway, the locksmith looked confused, ncing around before


    cautiously asking Oakley, “What’s the situation here?”


    Oakley didn’t answer but instead told Jan, “Mr. Dawson, this is the locksmith.”


    The locksmith nodded deferentially to Jan and asked timidly, “Sir, which door do you need open?”


    Zora must have heard themotion outside because she suddenly roared from within, “I dare anyone


    to try and open it!”


    The locksmith jumped at her voice, took a step back, and looked to Jan, asking cautiously,


    “What’s… what’s this about? If someone’s in there, should we be opening the door?”


    Then, turning to Oakley, the locksmith said, “Is this a joke?”  Draмanovels.cоm


    Oakley’s face darkened, and he snapped at the locksmith, “Shut up and get to work.”
