Chapter: 616
Chayce was rendered speechless and swallowed the rest of his words as he looked at Norah surrounded by the crowd.
She was the center of attention and confidently answered their questions.
Chayce looked at her in awe.
He knew Norah was no ordinary woman.
He clenched his fists. When he'd heard the news of the car accident, he and Galen had tried their best to arrive at the scene as soon as they could. Unfortunately, it was too late. They found a car broken beyond repair and unrecognizable corpses inside.
Later, they had found Norah and taken her to her parents' funeral.
It was a pity that her parents had passed away with regret shortly after locating her.
Chayce believed that Norah's parents were the best, so he was determined to protect Norah, along with Gilda, even if it meant risking his life.
Iker and his family were curious about Norah when they first met her.
After all, they knew nothing about her.
Elsa, Larry, and Hadley loved gossiping, so they were aware of all the details about the divorce drama between Norah and Derek.
Gossip was Elsa's pleasure.
She was always eager for details, trailing behind Norah to inquire further about her divorce, which irritated others.
Larry tugged at her wrist to signal her to stop, but she shrugged him off with a hint of annoyance.
Norah tilted her head and gave a chilly smile. “It seems you're quite interested in my personal affairs and know almost everything about me."
Elsa was oblivious to the cues. Despite Norah's repeated rejections, she persisted with her questions.
It was only when she noticed Norah's stern expression that she flashed an awkward smile. "Apologies. My curiosity got the better of me."
During their brief exchange, Iker realized Norah was far from naive, as Elsa had suggested. Instead, she was calculating.
She recognized their probing questions and deftly sidestepped them.
Iker understood that Norah would be a challenging person to handle.
“Norah, today's welcome banquet is in your honor. Now that you're back, a visit to the graves is due. Let's dine first and then head to our family cemetery."
During Lunch, Norah learned about the Wilson family cemetery, where all the ancestral graves were located.
"Your parents' graves are there too. Since you've returned, you should visit them. If they hadn't gone looking for you, they might still be alive."
Iker set his fork down and sighed.
