Chapter: 818
Amabel's expression shifted. She didn't expect even Susanna to discern her true intentions.
After all, Susanna was the most innocent girl in her heart.
“Susanna, you're overanalyzing my words. Miss Wilson is Sean's girlfriend, and it's our first meeting. Why would I undermine her for no reason? You're overthinking it."
Amabel's mind raced, and she promptly defended herself against Susanna, claiming her innocence.
"Miss Wilson is someone I deeply respect. She's proficient in both medicine and shooting. I might have asked too much questions previously so you got the wrong idea.”
Her eyes filled with tears as she looked at Norah, her gaze heavy with unspoken words. "Miss Wilson, do you see me in the same negative Light as Susanna?"
She appeared deeply hurt. "I'm sorry. It was wrong of me to make you feel uncomfortable. Please accept my apologies." She bowed respectfully, her sincerity evident.
Susanna couldn't shake her self-doubt. She was sure she hadn't felt it was wrong! But Amabel's sincere apology left her puzzled.
Norah gave a knowing smirk, amused by Amabel's antics. To her, Amabel was nothing more than a sideshow.
"Miss Morris, watch how you behave in the future. We know Spencer well enough to overlook this, but others might not be so forgiving,"
She retorted sarcastically, refusing to be treated unfairly.
Amabel managed a strained smile.
Spencer addressed the group, “I just wanted to give you a heads-up so you can prepare yourselves mentally. Norah, Susanna, our ride is here. We're heading out first. Take care."
He firmly grasped Amabel's hand and guided her into the car, waving to the others as he rolled down the window.
Spencer was a dependable and trustworthy friend, someone you could rely on without doubts of betrayal. Sadly, his sister didn't seem to value his emotions much.
The rest three returned to Norah's villa. Susanna felt she could rest better there and needed time to stabilize her emotions after that accident.
Norah was accommodating, allowing Susanna to stay as long as she needed.
Sean had spent the previous night here. When Norah invited him to stay longer, he declined.
“I have my place. I'll come by now and then, but I don't need to stay for extended periods."
He held Norah's hand, reflecting for a moment before saying, “I'm here because of the Glamour Club issue. Don't worry, we'll handle it."
Spencer's words today set off an alarm in his heart. The police would show up sooner or later. He feared Norah would be concerned.
Norah certainly had her concerns. Since she had returned to the country, she had followed the law and avoided taking any lives. When the Fox Alliance showed up, she had to shoot to keep herself safe.
From that point on, facing the terrifying assault by the Inferno Alliance, she had to protect Joanna and Susanna and defend herself using weapons.
During the killings, her emotions overwhelmed her, leaving her unable to think clearly. Afterward, she had to think about the police investigation.
