Chapter 373
Nora’s body trembled for no reason when she heard this. The old man patted her shoulder and said, “What are you afraid of? When I was young on the battlefield, I can’t remember how many people I killed. If your father had been willing to listen to me, I wouldn’t have killed her. I’m still annoyed with her, so why shouldn’t I use this method?”
“So her leukemia is not a coincidence?” Nora stared at the old man in shock.
The old man’s eyes were filled with unyielding murderous intent, and the corners of his mouth were raised coldly, “That’s natural. After your mother passed away unexpectedly, my original intention was for your father to marry a woman who was the right match for the Kingsley family. Unexpectedly, he actually married Elizabeth, since she was so damaged after the miscarriage that she couldn’t get pregnant anymore. I asked him to find a woman with good health to have the baby, but he refused, so I had no choice but
to do this.”
Nora couldn’t help but tighten her fingers on the armrests of the chair. She had secretly caused Elizabeth’s miscarriage back then.
She had hated Elizabeth since she was a child, feeling that she had robbed her mother of her father’s love; she concluded that if they had a child together, she would not have a father anymore.
Nora was happy that she could not have children again, but unexpectedly, that disaster made her grandfather have murderous
intentions towards her.
Seeing that Nora stopped talking, the old man slowed down and said, “Girl, Grandpa should let you know that if you are not ruthless,
your status will be unstable. Don’t blame grandpa for being cruel. Grandpa does this all for you and his family.”
“Grandpa, I understand.”
“It’s good that you understand. You have to stand on the same line as grandpa. Don’t tell your dad. Don’t worry, it’s Elizabeth today and Aveline tomorrow. As long as you don’t take the initiative to reveal that your bone marrow matches her, she won’t survive. How long more does she have?”
“Okay.”
“Good girl, grandpa has a guest to meet.”
“Guest? What kind of guest?”
“Grandpa will introduce them to you later. You should excuse us first.”
Nora was suspicious. The old man’s friends were all abroad. He rarely talks to anyone in Alberta. Where did the guest come from?
She pretended to leave, then sneaked back, hiding behind the big tree in the yard.
Nora originally thought she would be happy, but after learning the truth, she found out that she was not happy at all.
She hated Elizabeth with all her heart, but when she thought that she had caused her to have a miscarriage, that she could get pregnant again, which made her grandfather want to kill her, Nora’s heart felt heavy.
Her grandfather was born in troubled times. In order to maintain the stability of the country, they treated human life as nothing when they went to the front line to fight.
It is because of soldiers like them who serve the country and the people that the country is prosperous today. Ordinary people are afraid of killing a chicken, let alone a human.

Grandpa has always been a hero in her heart.
He, a hero with outstanding merits, did such a thing to a woman. Nora didn’t know how to evaluate it.
The old housekeeper’s voice came from the yard: “Madam, just wait here,”
Nora quickly calmed down and looked at the visitor.
The guest who arrived was a woman wearing a bamboo hat. Her entire body was wrapped in a black bamboo mat, and even her face was obscured by a mask.
She didn’t dress like a modern person, but like a villain in a movie or TV show, with not a single bit of skin exposed on her body.
The woman stood still in the yard, and the old housekeeper continued: “Madam, please take off your hat.”
The woman chuckled lightly, and stretched out her hand as white as jade, Judging from the skin on her hand, she should be very young, maybe twenty or thirty years old at most,
Her nails were long, and each one was painted bright red.
The interweaving of white and red reminded Nora of a vicious villain.
The bamboo hat and mat came off, and the woman was wearing a slim–fitting gown, which outlined her curvy figure. Even Kora was amazed when she saw her.
The old man wasn’t having a good time, was he? Is he still getting down with women at such an old age?
With a “squeak” sound, the door opened.
