The room was filled with weird silence.
Old Maddy, who had taken some time to calm himself down, suddenly said, “Let…let me go and
rinse my face to clear my mind a little”
It seemed that even the amount of time he had spent calming himself down just now hadn’t allowed
him to come to terms with the new information.
He entered the bathroom in the ward in a daze and turned on the faucet.Then, he scooped a
handful of icy-cold water and splashed it onto his face.
As it turned out, during these twenty-odd years that he had been crazy, Ms.
Nora had become this outstanding? If Ms.
Yvette were still alive, she would probably be very glad to see this, right? Outside, Nora heard him
turn on the faucet.
Amid the sound of the water flowing and splashing, she seemed to hear Old Maddy’s sigh.
A minute later, the sound of water flowing was still continuing.
Seemingly sensing something, Nora sprung onto her feet and rushed straight into the bathroom—
only to find that the window in the bathroom was wide open, and Old Maddy was already long gone!
Nora frowned.
She has been thinking about how Old Maddy and Charles seemed to be hiding something from her,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbut she didn’t expect Old Maddy to pull a disappearing act in this situation? The first thing she did
was observe the room.
There were no signs of tussling, but the anti-theft barrier outside the window had been broken.
This definitely was not something that could be done in just a minute Nora frowned.
At this moment, her cell phone beeped— it was a text message from an unfamiliar number.
It read: “Ms.Nora, even though you have already become very strong, you are still not strong
enough to contend with the mysterious organization.Do not underestimate anyone in this world.Your
next task is to become friends with King.Until then, do not go against the mysterious organization.”
Nora:”?”
She raised her eyebrows and sent a reply: ‘Where are you? King and I are already friends: Five
years ago, in order to make some money to feed Cherry, she had set up a stock market
boom.Without risking anything of her own, she had used some lawful tricks in the stock market to
make 7 5 million dollars.After that, King had taken the initiative to contact her and added her into the
Imperial League.
At the moment she entered the Imperial League, she had probably already become friends with
King, right?
Old Maddy replied: ‘Do you trust him?’
She had always felt that she was very ordinary and was not strong enough.
That was why she had been keeping her secret identities well-protected and preventing them from
becoming exposed, just so she could avoid what her mother had warned her of.
She would be in danger if anyone took notice of her.
Thus, she frowned and sent another message: ‘How can I get King to help me?’ The mysterious
organization had driven her mother to her grave.She had to avenge her.
However, Old Maddy merely replied: “King will not help you—unless he is the children’s father.Only
then will he have the same standpoint as you.Ms.Nora, heed my advice, don’t trust King
unconditionally, let alone trying to avenge Ms.Yvette.Take the two children and Mr.Hunt with you
and live out the rest of your life in the States peacefully! Ms.Yvette had never thought of having you
take revenge for her.Don’t look for me, there are some things that I will do on your behalf.When it is
time for me to appear, I will naturally show up in front of you.Also, if you are ever in trouble, you can
contact me by posting a newspaper ad.”
Nora hurriedly sent a message: ‘What are you going to do on my behalf?’ Old Maddy didn’t reply
anymore.
When Nora called him, she was informed that the other party had switched off their cell phone.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe traced the location of the cell phone number, only to find that its coordinates were changing
along with the flow of the sewer, indicating that Old Maddy had already removed the SIM card from
the phone and tossed it into the sewer.
Old Maddy was very professional—or at least, that was certainly the case when he was hiding from
people.
Nora frowned.
Five minutes later, Lily brought the surveillance camera footage from the hospital.
After all, this was the Hunt Corporation’s private hospital.
Here, Lily behaved almost as casually and naturally as she would at home.
With just a word from her, the security guards had given her the surveillance camera footage
without a question.
Nora sat in Old Maddy’s ward and checked the footage.
She found that after Old Maddy regained clarity of mind, the first thing he had done was check his
surroundings.
Every morning, when he went to the toilet at a fixed time, he would always carry a paring knife with
him.
Through the footage of the cameras on the outside, one would find that Old Maddy had been
sawing at the anti-theft barrier every day when he went to the toilet.
However, he also made sure the barrier stayed the way it looked.
