Chapter 1594
In spite of the fact that there was already proof, Norah still tried to talk her way out of her predicament. "It's just a
call log. It doesn't prove anything! Don't you try to change the topic, I'm not here to listen to your hogwash!"
Even as Norah attempted to regain the upper hand, the Riddles were no fools.
Sean coldly whipped his phone out and called the police." Hello, 911..."
A chill radiated across Norah's heart at that instant as she glared at Nicole. "Even if you do not wish to compensate
me, you don’t need to besmirch me like this!"
"Compensation? You still have the nerve to ask for compensation?" Nicole sneered as she mocked Norah. "Do you
think the Riddle family is some pushover? Fine! Since gratitude is a foreign concept to you, don't blame me for what
I'm about to do today, Norah. I'll make you spit out every single penny that you've taken from Mom back then."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNorah instantly panicked, struggling to maintain her composure as she hissed, "Fine... You don't want to pay up,
huh?! In that case, we'll meet in court! Let's go, Mr. Mack!"
Ignoring the pain on her knees, Norah forced herself up and turned around to leave.
Before she could, however, Nicole stood in her path, blocking her. "Oh, thinking of leaving, are you? Too late. You
won’t be going back to the hotel we've arranged for you. A person like you are only fit to be...in prison!"
"Nicole!!" Norah released a hysterical scream, having lost it." Don't you spout another word of nonsense! I’m not a
fool! What can a call log even prove?!"
Seeing that Norah still refused to give up, Nicole sneered." Of course, a call log can't prove anything, but your
father had accidentally pressed on the record button before he died. Want to hear the recording?"
The smile on Nicole’s face was cold, confident, and malicious, shattering everything that Norah had in her world of
make-believe, and before Norah could even protest, Nicole had already clicked on the recording and played it in
front of everyone.
Then, Norah's voice immediately emanated from the phone's speakers. "Mom, Dad... when are you coming to the
island? I'm in trouble! I need you to save me!"
"Norah, there's a storm coming and there are no boats! Quick, find yourself a shelter first!" her parents yelled.
"Buy one then! You won't be able to see me again otherwise..." Norah cried, as if she had run into danger.
As soon as Norah's parents had heard that, they panicked, and after comforting her for a bit, they gritted their
teeth and agreed. "Wait for us Norah. We'll come and save you right now! Dad will definitely be by your side today!"
After that, the call ended.
Upon hearing that, a realization dawned upon everyone present in the house.
Sean's eyes became downcast as he said, "It was not an accident at all. It was Norah who insisted on them going
out to sea during a storm..."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThose words instantly cleared all the doubts they had in mind.
In addition, they had left Gloria utterly stunned. "Impossible. They are Norah's birth parents."
She then looked at Norah in shock and disbelief. 'What kind of daughter would she need to be to force her parents
to go out to sea during a storm onto the island to look for her?'
However, even under such scrutiny, Norah still attempted to lie her way out. "I did not! I...I really ran into trouble! I
was robbed! That's why I begged them to save me!"
"You're still trying to lie your way out at this juncture?" Nicole looked at Norah, feeling that the latter was an utter
dunce for the first time.
If she could find Norah's call records, as well as the call records in the waterlogged phone of her deceased father,
what made Norah think that she would not be able to find out if she was really being robbed?
Norah glared at Nicole, and upon witnessing the glint of confidence in the latter's eyes, a sense of foreboding began
to swell within her.
