Chapter: 1021

Norah, visibly shocked, replied, "You mean, Marlin doesn't remember me?"

Yolande was equally taken aback. "I don't think he remembers, or else why would he be with Dolores?"

After bidding farewell to Yolande, Norah returned to her dormitory.

It didn't come as a surprise to Norah that Marlin had denied knowing her; she figured he wanted to forget the kidnapping incident.

What unsettled her, however, was the fact that she had risked her life to save him, yet he treated her like a stranger.

In comparison to Manley's demeanor, Marlin's attitude was downright chilling.

Norah couldn't fathom Marlin's behavior.

Gemma's surprised reaction greeted Norah upon her return to the dormitory.

“Norah? What brings you back here?"

Gemma queried, reclining on her bed with a facial mask and pajamas, engrossed in her phone.

"Miss me already? Finally realized there's a cutie in our dormitory, huh?"

Gemma's playful banter brought a smile to Norah's face, momentarily easing her tension. They chatted casually for a while before Norah retired to bed after a shower.

Reflecting on Sean's indifference, Marlin's sudden amnesia, and Susanna's illness, Norah couldn't fall asleep.

The memory of the assassin sent by Hank stirred a cold determination within her. She resolved to remain vigilant in the days ahead.

Perhaps upon her return to Glophia, she thought, she'd uncover vital clues.

Norah harbored an unwavering resolve to bring her parents’ murderer to justice.

She suspected Iker's involvement in Hank's orders for the assassination and hoped her efforts would not be in vain.

The following morning, she rose to find no new messages on her phone.

With a cold demeanor, she locked the screen and rose from bed.

"Good morning, Norah!"

Gemma greeted through a mouthful of toothpaste, observing Norah's stoic expression with bewilderment.

Aware of Gemma's apprehension, Norah quickly softened her expression, not wishing to burden her.

“Morning,” she replied, her tone gentler.

Gemma visibly relaxed at the response. “Alright, let's hurry and get ready for work."
