Nora

Chapter 26:.

“…”

One was big and tall while the other was small and bajtia. The two stared at each other for two or three seconds before the surprised Cherry unconsciously tried to close the door.

Pete had told her that they shouldn’t recognize each other before Mom and Dad fell in love with each other. Otherwise, a terrible custody battle would ensue!

However, the man reached out and held the door open. He asked in surprise, “Why are you here, Pete?”

Cherry was terribly alarmed.

Justin’s expression was dark and clouded.

He bent down, lifted Cherry up and commanded, “Come upstairs with me!

But Dad will find out what’s going on when we get upstairs and meet Pete!

Cherry struggled and yelled, “Let go of me! Mom, help me!”

Mrs. Lewis, who heard her screams, ran out of the kitchen to see Justin entering the elevator with Cherry in his arms.

Shocked, she ran into the bedroom in a panic and woke up Nora, who was sound asleep. “Nora! Wake up! Something’s happened! Mr. Hunt has taken Cherry!”

Nora was sound asleep, but woke up instantly when Mrs. Lewis shook her awake.

She got up and went straight out after putting on her slippers. She didn’t even have time to change.

By that time, Cherry had already been taken upstairs.

When they entered the presidential suite, as she watched her angry, handsome father walk into the study with her in his arms, she thought to herself: We’re finished! We’re finished!

As her father held her tightly, she couldn’t even inform Pete of what was happening.

Now they would definitely be exposed.

Crack!

Justin stopped dead in his tracks as he opened the door to the study.noveldrama

To avoid being scolded and disciplined by her father, the speedy Cherry decided to take the initiative to admit her mistake first. She said weakly, “I’m sorry, Dad. Cherr-”

Before she could say, “Cherry didn’t mean to keep it from you,” she saw…. Was the studio really empty?

After a brief pause, the words on the tip of his tongue became “-and Pit didn’t mean it.”

His big eyes were full of confusion.

Where was Pete, where had he gone?

His son’s soft, tender voice made Justin’s anger slowly fade, and he dared not lecture him any longer.

He gently put Cherry down and held her shoulders tightly as he said, “Don’t leave upstairs so lightly, no matter what, Pete.”

He was trembling.

As the heir to America’s number one family, a lot of people had their eyes on the Hunts.

Justin had been kidnapped before, as a child, and had only made it back alive after going through hell. The events had almost traumatized him. That was why he had worked so hard all these years to protect and hide his son from the public eye.

But how many times had Pete met Nora Smith? Yet she had snuck in downstairs! And, most frighteningly, he hadn’t even noticed!

What if she had bad intentions, or if someone had kidnapped him on the way down? The consequences… He didn’t even dare to think about it!

Sensing her father’s inexplicable fear, Cherry suddenly hugged him and patted him comfortingly on the shoulder. “I won’t do it anymore, Dad.”

The soft, tiny figure in her arms made Justin stiffen again.

It was the first time in all these years that his son had been so affectionate with him.

Justin’s turbulent emotions gradually subsided as he took in the faint scent of milk that she gave off. He sighed deeply and, by way of compromise, said, “If you really like Miss Smith so much, we can let her come up here and spend some time with you.”

Cherry was speechless.

Seeing that she had succeeded in glossing over the matter with her father, Cherry looked at the half-finished workbook on the desk and wondered, “Where’s Pete?

Meanwhile, Chester, whom the other two had neglected, was currently lounging on the living room couch and second-guessing his life choices.

Two minutes ago, he had been playing with his team leader when he suddenly heard Justin’s angry voice and his nephew’s calls for help.

As his playmate, Chester had to stick up for him. That’s why, even though he was terribly afraid of the tyrant, he had rushed over, intending to save Pete from ‘danger’. This way, Pete would probably scold him a little less in the game, wouldn’t he?

But in the end, what he saw was that Pete was currently safe and sound while doing his homework?

He had suspected that his eyes were playing tricks on him at the time, and even deliberately rubbed his eyes. But when he looked again, he discovered that his nephew was still sitting there.

After that, he picked up the phone again. The game’s voice chat was still connected, and he could clearly hear his team leader calling for help, “Stupid dad, let me go! I’m going to get mom! I don’t want to go upstairs!”

“…”

Then, he saw his nephew put down the pen and run away without a word.

About twenty seconds later, the door was pushed open. Justin walked in with Pete and the two of them walked back into the study.

Chester rubbed his eyes again.

The child Justin was holding was indeed identical to his nephew.

And what’s more, his conversation with Justin was still being transmitted to his cell phone via the game’s voice chat…. But if the person who had been playing with him all this time was his nephew, then who was the one doing homework here right now?

Besides.

Had his nephew put on another suit in the span of twenty seconds?

He got up not knowing what to do and went outside with his cell phone. As soon as she stepped outside, she ran into the family doctor. He immediately grabbed the doctor’s hand and said in a worried voice, “Please check me out, doctor. Why am I hallucinating when I’m still so young? Do I have some kind of mental illness? I don’t want to die yet.”

The doctor was speechless. He seemed to have suddenly become terribly busy.

Meanwhile.

Pete was in the stairwell and coming down the stairs.

Through the glass of the stairwell door, he saw his father enter the suite with Cherry in his arms, and was immediately relieved.

It was fortunate that Uncle Chester had arrived in time. Otherwise, everything would really be out in the open.

He waited there for a while until Cherry sent him a voice message. After the two little ones exchanged information with each other, a concerned Cherry asked, “Uncle Chester saw you and I a moment ago. Will he notice anything?”

Pete replied, “No.”

“Why?”

Pete pursed his lips and replied, “He’s a single-celled organism. It can’t figure out anything that complicated.”

Neither of them knew he had a younger twin sister. If he hadn’t run into Cherry, he wouldn’t have understood why Mom had acted so familiar with him.

Even the tyrant had never imagined such a thing, let alone his simpleton uncle….

Pete hung up the phone and went downstairs.

He had barely taken a step down when he heard hurried footsteps. Right after that, Nora came rushing upstairs.

She looked terribly angry, as if she wanted to fight someone to the death. When she saw him, she was relieved and asked, “Are you coming back, Cherry?”

Pete nodded. “Yes.”

Nora hesitated for a moment, but in the end didn’t say much. She turned to go back downstairs and said, “Let’s go home first.”

Then she took Pete’s hand and went downstairs.

On the way back down, it seemed to her that her daughter had become much calmer than before.

After returning to the bedroom, Nora scrutinized Pete up and down. She gave him a hard stare and asked, “Are you sure Justin didn’t do anything to you, Cherry?”

Seeing that Mom was very nervous, Pete nodded.

At that moment, Mrs. Lewis approached. She frowned and asked, “Why are you wearing different pajamas, Cherry?”
