Chapter 1596
Although he did not have clear cut answers about everything, he had gotten Ellar to help him take note of
everything that had transpired after he had caught wind that Norah had been abusive to Nicole. As they studied in
the same high school, Ellar had reported everything he had heard to Sean.
"Nicole..." Gloria looked at Nicole with a look of extreme remorse.
There, it became clear as to why Nicole had previously attempted in vain to dissuade her, only for Gloria to
repeatedly defend Norah following another one of her pity parties, hurting Nicole in the process. 'How hurt must
this child feel, I wonder?'
'It's fine, Mom. Water under the bridge," Nicole said, not bothering with all of the wrongs in the past as she did not
want to make things difficult for her mother.
Still, although she had never thought of telling Gloria about Norah's abuse of her to prevent her from being ridden
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwith guilt, she did not expect Sean to know about it.
Yet, that was no longer an issue, as everyone in the Riddle family now knew who Norah really was.
"Come with us, Norah Riddle. We suspect that you are involved in the deliberate murder of your biological parents."
The officers went up to Norah with handcuffs brandished. It was then that Norah's eyes turned from sullen to
murderous. 'Why can this family be all smiles as I head to prison? No! I'll make them regret this for the rest of their
lives!'
With that thought in mind, she instantly grabbed the pistol she saw bolstered at the waist of the police officer and
took aim at Gloria and Daniel. "Think you lot can enjoy a family reunion while I go to prison? Dream on! I'll make
you feel so much pain that you'd wished you were dead, Nicole!"
As losing a loved one was leagues more painful than one dying themselves, Norah wanted Nicole to suffer for the
rest of her life.
"Stop!" Daniel, Sean and the others cried out!
But it was already too late, Norah had already disengaged the safety lock and was already prepared to shoot.
Daniel instinctively shielded Gloria with his body, and with a loud bang, a deafening gunshot echoed across the
room.
Everyone was stunned, and even the butler was on the verge of doubling over in terror.
The faces of the police officers blanched; they had not expected a shooting to happen.
And just as everyone thought that Gloria had been shot, Norah's scream suddenly rang out. "AAARGHHH!"
Her scream jolted everyone back to their senses.
Samuel and Spencer were the first to look at Norah, only to see a stream of blood gushing out from her arm! It
seemed that she had been shot in the shoulder artery.
Her pistol then fell off her hand as she tumbled onto the ground and cried out in pain. "It hurts! It hurts! Somebody,
help me!"
Norah's screams echoed across the mansion.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThen, everyone began to wonder if it was the police who had shot Norah. But when they turned to the other officer,
they realized that the latter had not even drawn his gun at all.
At that moment, Steve sensed that something was not right, and as he subconsciously turned around, he saw... that
Nicole was holding a pistol herself.
'Was she the one who fired the shot just now?!'
"Nicole... why do you have a gun?" Steve's face turned pale, for it was illegal for citizens to bear arms.
Moreover, Nicole was just a high-schooler, and so, they could only wonder where she had gotten the gun from.
At that moment, everyone turned their attention to Nicole.
Catching the look of shock on their faces, she sighed and calmly put the pistol away. "Don't worry, my firearm is
legal."
As she said that, she turned her digital watch on as an image of her ID card appeared before the police.
The two police officers were dumbfounded the moment they saw it. Sighing, Nicole supposed they had not seen
such a thing before.
