Chapter: 1291

"Concord Hospital, right? I'm booking a flight immediately."

With the news confirmed, Gil ended the call and purchased two tickets to Silverdale for the next morning. He took leave from his job, returned home, and began packing, planning to bring Trudy along.

The matter concerning Norah was urgent. They needed to see her in person to find peace of mind.

Sean stared at his phone's dark screen, fully aware he couldn't stop Gil and Trudy. Over the past year, he had witnessed the lengths they went to for Norah.

Gil and Trudy refused to believe anything terrible had happened to Norah, clinging to the hope that she would return.

Since the news had spread through Silver Boulder Private Hospital, it meant that those who were after Norah's life were aware as well.

At the Wilsons' house, Iker received images from the organization, showcasing their substantial losses and urging for more money now that the job was completed.

Paying more wasn't an issue, as long as Norah was truly dead.

Iker shared the good news with his family, finally feeling a weight lift from his shoulders as excitement filled the room.

During dinner, Iker made sure to order a special bottle of wine to celebrate the occasion properly.

Hadley had been on an emotional rollercoaster over the past year.

After finally getting close to Norah, she learned of her disappearance.

When she discovered it was the Wilson family's doing, her heart grew cold.

Who could have imagined that Norah would be so fortunate to survive their schemes?

Yet, the Wilson family had made another attempt on Norah's life during her journey back to Glophia.

Hadley couldn't take it. How could this happen? Would Norah never return to the Wilson household?

While Hadley struggled with her emotions, everyone else at the table was in high spirits, toasting and celebrating until Hank received a phone call.

After Hank ended the call, his face grew serious.

"Marlene just reported that Silver Boulder Private Hospital is buzzing with news that Norah is alive."

The lively mood at the table instantly turned tense. The youngest child, under the care of the nanny, was hushed quickly to avoid Iker's anger.

"Impossible."

Iker slammed his wine glass to the floor, the sound of shattering glass startling the child.

Mindy's expression hardened. "Norah is incredibly fortunate to have escaped death so many times. What's the full story?"

"They say she underwent surgery at Concord Hospital after a severe car accident and there's a chance she might end up in a vegetative state."
