Chapter 360: His Only Family
"Drag her out before she creates a scene." Penny heard the distant voice as she lost her composure.
This was their house! Nora was a guest there. Yet she was dragged out from here like she was a stranger here. No! She could not let Nora win. She would give this house to her. Penny lunged on Nora but she was held behind by two strong hands.
"Oh dear! She did not stop her pitiful act even when everyone knew the truth." Even disgusting words did not justify their feelings toward penny. Penny was nothing but a criminal with no emotions.
The burial rites ended just like that. The policemen came to meet Alric. Nora had just exchanged pleasantries with the last guest.
When she went inside Alric was discussing something with the policeman and another man.
"Nora.." Nora hesitated but she walked closer when they noticed her. The policemen observed her while the man went silent. Not sure how to continue.
"It is alright, you can speak." The man was not sure but he knew better than to question Alric.
"We have looked around. David Stone is nowhere to be found. But I am sure he knew about his wife’s death. If he is still not out. Either he is dead or he is planning something very dangerous. I heard from a trustable source that someone had spent a hefty sum in Black Raven. It would be better if you stay alert for the time being." even the policemen looked uneasy.
"It would be better that Miss Nora stay at home. I will inform you as soon as I find something." Alric nodded and they both left.
