Chapter 488



.

When Nora heard these words, she hurried to open the door and walked in.

Lily was pressing on Old Maddy’s arm. Since he had been poisoned by Yvonne, his body was not well, and his mind had not recovered.

His expression was still not good, and the burns on his body were frightening.

Lily comforted him. “The boss will be here soon. Don’t get agitated…”

Old Maddy danced and kept shouting, “I want to see Yvette’s daughter! Call her quickly to see me! It’ll be over if she’s late! I want to tell her a secret…”

Lily could hardly control it anymore. At that moment, Nora came through the door. Hearing the door open, Lily turned to look at her and finally let out a sigh of relief.

“You’re finally here!”

Lily stood up and said resentfully, “If you hadn’t come early, Old Maddy would have really lost it this time!”

Nora ignored her scolding and headed straight for the bed. At the sight of her face, Old Maddy calmed down.

His cloudy eyes suddenly cleared up. He looked at Nora silently for a while before smiling.

“You’re here.”

“I’m here.”

Nora took her dry hand. Her fingers were especially dry because they had been burned earlier, and her skin was very wrinkled.

She asked softly, “What’s wrong?”

Old Maddy looked at her and his eyes gradually calmed. He smiled, “I want to tell you that you have to have a child!”.

Nora: “?”

She was stunned. “What?”

“You need to have a child! Now, now! Hurry up!” Old Maddy suddenly became suddenly anxious and pushed her, “Do it now.”

His words were incoherent, making them even more confusing.

However, Nora’s heart gave a little leap. She seemed to have thought of something and asked, “Why?”

“Why?”

Old Maddy was taken aback. “Yes, why?”

She was pushing Nora’s hand, but suddenly calmed down. She scratched her head vigorously. “Why, why, why can’t I remember why, why, why, why, why, why?”

He muttered quietly to himself. After saying these words, he held his hair tightly because he couldn’t remember why. He had pulled out a few strands of hair from his already barren scalp, but he still couldn’t remember.

Suddenly, she hit her head angrily. “Why? Say it fast, why?”

Nora saw that he was slowly losing his mind and seemed to be getting more and more anxious. She hurried to take him by the hand. “Old Maddy…”

When Old Maddy saw her, he no longer thought about why. Instead, he took her hand. “Go quickly and have a child. Go!”

Nora: “…I’ve already given birth.”

“You gave birth?”

Old Maddy was stunned. “Did it really happen?”

“That’s right.”

There were even two of them.

Nora didn’t say the last sentence. She just stared at Old Maddy. When she saw that he seemed to have heard it, she let out a sigh of relief. Then she slowly closed her eyes. Her emotions seemed to have calmed down.

Nora asked timidly, “Can you remember anything else?”

Old Maddy whispered, “I can’t remember. I can’t remember. I’m old. I’m crazy… And I can’t think. My head hurts. My head hurts so much…”.

“Okay, don’t think about it yet. But if you remember anything else, you have to tell me.”

Nora reminded him quietly. Old Maddy nodded. “I’ll remember. I know…”

After Old Maddy fell asleep, Nora left the room.

Lily looked at her. “Anti, I think Old Maddy’s condition has improved. At least, he was talking to you normally a moment ago. But it’s so strange, why did he want you to have a child?”

Nora shook her head to indicate that she didn’t know.

She said to Lily, “Take good care of Old Maddy. When his physical condition reaches a certain level, I will continue his treatment.”

Old Maddy could be someone who knew about some things at that time. Only by curing Old Maddy could he know some of his mother’s secrets.

Since she was in the hospital, Nora went to visit Quentin again.

Quentin was lying down and another nurse was feeding him fruit. As he ate, she said, “Don’t get carried away with how I am now, paralyzed in bed and unable to lift a glass of water. I am very powerful.”

At that moment, he took a bite of an apple and continued, “My martial arts are especially good. It’s no problem for me to fight ten people alone! What’s with that expression? When I’m done recovering, I’ll fight ten for you to see!”.

When Nora heard this, she stopped in her tracks.

As she stood in the doorway, she heard the nurse say, “Okay, how big is your heart? Do you know how bad your injuries are?”

Quentin smiled. “Do you know who my cousin is?

The young nurse: “…I do. It’s Anti.”

“Besides Anti, it’s also the Herm…. Forget it, I won’t tell you anymore. You won’t understand even if I tell you. Anyway, she’s very good at fighting!”

The young nurse asked, “Is she better than you?”

Quentin: “…Damn, she’s just a little better than me. Really, just a little. When I get better, I’ll practice for another ten years. I’ll definitely beat her. Because she’s too lazy. She only knows how to sleep every day… If she doesn’t practice, she’ll only get worse! Why should I tell you about wrestling? What I want to tell you is that with her around, I’m sure I’ll be able to get up!”

Nora clenched her fists in silence. Her almond eyes drooped slightly. It was as if she suddenly had a heavy burden on her shoulders.

She hadn’t expected Quentin to trust her so blindly.

This made her feel pressured.

She didn’t go inside and walked over to Ian’s place.

Ian was holding his phone and looking at something. However, Nora could vaguely hear Joel’s voice.

She was about to take a closer look when Ian heard her come in. He quickly turned off his phone and looked at her guiltily. “Nora, why are you here?”

Nora: “…How are you?”

Ian smiled, “I’m pretty good. I feel like I may be discharged in a few days.”

Nora nodded.

Ian looked at her.

Nora pursed her lips.

Ian was still looking at her.

Nora sat to the side and stood up.

Ian was still looking at her.

For a moment, there was nothing between them. A slight awkwardness filled the room.

Looking at her new father, Nora still felt a sense of strangeness.

After all, she had seen him less than a dozen times.

Nora stood up. “If you’re okay, I’ll be back.”

Ian asked unconsciously, “Leaving so soon?”

He hadn’t seen enough of his daughter. Nora nodded. “Yes, I still have something to do.”

She headed for the door and had just opened it when Ian’s voice suddenly came from behind her. “Nora, you just went to see Quentin, didn’t you?”

Nora paused.

She didn’t turn around, but kept hearing Ian’s voice. “It’s all right. As long as you try your best, even if the result is unsatisfactory, it’s okay. I know Quentin. He won’t blame you.”

Nora was relieved. She felt as if threads of warmth were flowing back into her heart.

She lowered her head. “Yes.”

With that, she turned away. “Thank you.”

After leaving the hospital, Nora got into her car and planned to question Yvonne.

However, she suddenly thought of something and grabbed her phone. Suddenly she texted the little psychopath: [Can I ask you a question].

The little psychopath quickly replied: [Beg me].

Nora: [Then forget it].

Little psychopath: [No, you have to ask!] He was very curious to know what questions his little servant wanted to ask.

Nora: [No].

Little psychopath: [Ask! I can answer you a question for free].

Nora was waiting for this sentence. [Why should I have a child].

The moment she asked this question, the other party answered.

After seeing that answer, Nora’s eyes widened in shock….
