Chapter 196 Nora, You're So Silly

Chapter 196 Nora, You're So Silly

"Damn it! Sebastian, you set me up!"

With things having come to this point, Vivian could now see the situation clearly. Sebastian never intended to keep his promise to Nora, and he didn't even want her to leave here alive.

What should she do? Now that Reginald was no longer in her hands, she had nothing to threaten Sebastian with. How was she going to save her own life?

Vivian hid in the corner by the car, looking at Sebastian and Reginald surrounded by bodyguards, then at the gunmen holding pistols and constantly shooting at her. Her face was covered in cold sweat.

She regretted it! When Nora came to her asking for help, she shouldn't have agreed to Nora's request. She should have firmly persuaded Nora to go find Samuel instead.

If Samuel knew that Sebastian wanted to rescue Reginald, he definitely wouldn't have made a deal with Sebastian so easily.

"Finally scared now? Will you dare to trick me again?"

Just as Vivian fell into despair and was about to close her eyes and wait for death, a cold voice came through a loudspeaker, spreading across the entire dock.

Matthew?

Hearing that voice, not only Vivian but even Sebastian, who was carrying Reginald and preparing to board the speedboat, froze.

Sebastian and Vivian looked toward the distance at the same time.

"Mr. Green, good morning."

Under their gaze, Matthew brought many people and barged into the dock.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Stay still, don't move!"

Without Matthew even reminding them, his men automatically engaged with Sebastian's men.

Sebastian's men had all received professional training, and each one had the ability to fight multiple opponents, but Matthew's men were also very capable, and they had the advantage in numbers.

So, after just over ten minutes, Sebastian, Reginald, and Sebastian's men all fell into Matthew's hands.

"Matthew, you lunatic, let me go!"

"I'm the current head of the Green family. If your parents knew what you did to me, they wouldn't let you off."

Sebastian struggled hard but still couldn't break free from Matthew's bodyguards' control. He broke down and could only shift his gaze to Matthew, trying to scare him on purpose.

Unfortunately, Matthew couldn't be bothered with him at all.

"Are you okay? Are you hurt?"

After confirming that Sebastian had been captured, Matthew walked to Vivian's side as quickly as possible, grabbed her arm, and looked her up and down several times.

"Vivian, are you an idiot? I warned you so many times that Sebastian is a sneaky guy. If you were going to meet him behind my back, you should have been fully prepared."

"Bringing only a dozen bodyguards to make a deal with Sebastian—how is that any different from looking for death?"

Matthew pressed his lips together, his tone harsh, but his eyes were full of worry.

"I..."

Vivian opened her mouth, wanting to defend herself, but couldn't find the right words. In the end, she could only lower her head and casually change the subject.

"Matthew, you should be at my company helping me with the meeting right now. How come you're here?"

"How come I'm here?"

Matthew repeated her words, tried to hold back but still couldn't help raising his hand to tap her forehead.

"I came here specifically to save you! You don't think those clumsy lies you and Nora told could fool me and Samuel, do you?"

What? He and Samuel already knew that she and Nora were making a deal with Sebastian today?

Vivian's eyes widened, and she instinctively asked, "Then Nora right now..."

"Don't worry, your friend will be fine. Samuel has already gone to find her. Both Nora and Mia will safely return to your side."

Matthew knew what she wanted to say. Before Vivian could finish, he raised his hand to ruffle her hair and glanced at Sebastian and Reginald.

"It's getting late. Let's take our spoils of war and go home."

"Okay."

Vivian's eyes lit up. She immediately hugged his arm and walked with him toward his car.

...

"Mr. Green, the terrain here is too complicated. Without positioning software, it's very hard for us to find Nora."

While things went smoothly on Matthew and Vivian's side, Samuel's side ran into trouble.

After Nora left Samuel's villa, Samuel and Kevin brought a large number of bodyguards to secretly follow her.

To avoid letting Nora discover their presence, Samuel's convoy kept a long distance from Nora.

Fortunately, Kevin had software that could track Nora's whereabouts.

So at first, Samuel wasn't worried that Nora would escape his tracking.

However, Samuel's good mood didn't last long.

Because as soon as Nora entered a slum area in the suburbs, she disappeared.

Kevin followed Nora's phone signal all the way, and in the end only found Nora's phone and car.

"It seems your father must know we can locate Nora's position through her phone."

In a remote alley, Kevin pressed one hand against Nora's car door and held Nora's phone in the other, his brow furrowed.

"Mr. Green, what should we do now?"

"If technology can't solve the problem, then we'll use people to solve it."

Samuel looked down at the phone in Kevin's hand, his expression extremely grim.

"Go mobilize all the people we can and bring them to this neighborhood. Search house by house! I don't believe Nora can just vanish into thin air right before our eyes."

"Yes, Mr. Green. I'll contact our people right away."

Kevin pressed his lips together and didn't dare hesitate for a moment. He immediately took out his phone.

...

"Emily, why is it you?"

While chaos reigned outside, Nora followed the markers Sebastian left behind and arrived at a very run-down apartment.

As soon as she entered, she saw a familiar figure.

Emily!

She was sitting in the apartment's living room drinking coffee.

"Ms. Brooks, you actually dared to come find me alone?"

Hearing Nora's voice, Emily put down her coffee cup, slowly raised her head, and looked at Nora with a half-smile.

"You're not a devil. Why wouldn't I dare to meet you alone?"

Nora felt uncomfortable all over from her smile, but thinking of why she came here, she still took a deep breath and sat down across from Emily, pretending to be calm.

"Miss Johnson, my friend has already taken Reginald to find Sebastian. Where are my grandfather and my daughter? Shouldn't you hand them over to me now?"

"Your grandfather and your daughter? Nora, you've suffered so many losses at my hands—how come you still haven't gotten any smarter?"

Emily squinted at Nora for a long time, then suddenly clapped her hands and laughed several times.

"You don't really think you'll be able to leave this apartment safe and sound today, do you? Don't be silly. I won't let you have your way."
