Chapter 1583: Chapter 1683

“What?” I was stunned when Nora shared the news with me.

Disbelief washed over me.

“Shirley dared to barge into Andrew’s place? Is she out of her mind?”

Despite Shirley’s usual bossy attitude, she always seemed to respect Andrew and care about her image in front of him.

Why would she suddenly storm into Andrew’s place?

Did something happen?

Feeling a weight in my chest, I handed Abby to a nearby maid and approached Nora, eager for more information.

“What’s going on? Why didn’t anyone stop Shirley with all the guards at the manor?”

Nora looked helpless as she replied, “There are plenty of guards, but what’s the use?”

With a shrug, she continued, “Shirley, being the clan leader’s daughter, just barged in with her group, threatening and even hitting people.

The guards didn’t dare to stop her.

Now, only the butler and a few others are trying to restrain her.

But I doubt they can hold her back for long.

”

Worry furrowed my brow.

Was Shirley causing such a scene just to see me?

Not wanting others to suffer because of me, I made up my mind.

“If she’s so desperate to see me, then I’ll go and see what she wants.

”

“That’s not a good idea!” Nora reached out to stop me.

“Debra, you can’t go.

Mr.

Pierce isn’t at the manor right now.

If you go alone and Shirley starts bullying you, what then? With so many people with her, she won’t let you off easily.

”

I let go of her hand, revealing Shirley’s strategy to Nora.

“Nora, you’re too trusting.

Shirley is here because Andrew isn’t around.

She wouldn’t be this bold otherwise.

Nora, still concerned, suggested, “If she’s afraid of Mr.

Pierce, can’t we just wait for him to come back? Debra, please, don’t go.

It will only cause trouble!”

It was clear that Nora didn’t really know Shirley, as she hadn’t spent much time with her.

I shook my head.

“If I don’t face her now, she won’t stop.

She’ll keep coming after me, and it will only get worse.

”

“But…”

Nora had seen Shirley’s fierceness and was genuinely worried about me, trying her best to stop me.

I explained firmly, “Nora, there’s something you don’t know.

Shirley and her people once tricked me into going to the border between witches and vampires, planning to kill me.

”

Nora was shocked.

I continued, “Think about it, if I don’t face her now, she’ll do something drastic to see me.

We’re in the manor right now, with plenty of guards and maids around.

Maybe that will make her hold back a little.

”

In a low voice, I insisted, “We can’t miss this opportunity.

”

Before Nora could respond, I quickly moved away, instructing her, “Nora, I’ll go meet her.

You stay here and don’t go anywhere.

”

As I opened the door to go downstairs, I heard Shirley’s arrogant voice from the entrance.

“Why doesn’t Debra come meet me? Is she scared?”

I narrowed my eyes, a slight smile playing on my lips.
