me!”

A dim light flashed across Ruth’s eyes, but on the surface, she instead lowered her head and sighed.
“I didn’t expect this to happen, either.
But don’t worry, Captain Ford has already said it himself just now.
Having high academic qualifications is nothing impressive.
As long as my proposal allows us to find important clues through interrogation, it’ll still be all thanks to you knowing talent when you see it!”

Upon hearing this, Johnson looked at her.
He suddenly lowered his voice and asked, “Is that interrogation plan of yours reliable?”

Johnson had boasted really hard about how Ruth was a master interrogator and whatnot, but to be honest, he didn’t really believe in her, either.

Ruth’s eyes flickered.
Then, she smiled and replied, “Just wait for the good news tomorrow!”

Johnson nodded when he heard that.

Then, all of his fury from just now disappeared.

The next day… Heh, he would give the special department a big gift the next day!

Nora drove home in the jeep.

On the way home, she couldn’t help but sneeze.

She couldn’t tell who might be cursing her.

She held the steering wheel with one hand and leaned her other arm on the window.
Her head was propped on her hand as she looked ahead of her and drove in boredom.

Ruth and Johnson sure were becoming kinda annoying

It was to the extent that she wanted the two of them to disappear from her sight.

However, those two usually only made small trouble, so she could only disclose her identity and give them a slap in the face at the most, which was no fun at all.

She wondered when the two of them would do something big instead?

Bland and painless tricks like those were simply too boring!

While thinking about it, she returned to the Smiths.

As soon as she entered the house, Maureen came running out in tears.
She was taken aback for a moment.
Before she could even ask what had happened, Warren rushed over.
He said, “Sigh, dear, let me explain…”

Maureen, however, refused to listen and left at once.

Warren chased after her and went past Nora.
It was as though neither of them had noticed her.

Nora: “…”

The couple was quarreling again.

The corners of her lips spasmed and she ignored them.
Instead, she went up the stairs.
As soon as she reached the door, she saw Joel staring at her.
He said, “Mr.
Hunt came over today.”

Nora raised her brows.

The sensitive woman discovered that for some reason, Joel’s term of address had changed from “Justin” to “Mr.
Hunt” again.

There was a little more respect in his speech.

“Uh-huh, and then?” She asked.

Joel replied, “He proposed marriage, to which Dad has agreed.
Then, he immediately set a few dates where he’ll be coming over so that you guys can settle on a wedding date.”

Nora: “…”

Was that man in such a hurry? Her lip corners twitched and she nodded.
“Okay, got it.”

After replying, she was about to enter her bedroom when she heard Joel’s voice again.
“Nora,” he said.

Nora looked back to see Joel looking at her hesitantly.
A short while later, he suddenly said, “You… Why don’t you treat Mr.
Hunt a little nicer and be a little more faithful to him?”

Nora: “?”

Even though she was confused, she nodded before she finally entered her room, leaving behind Joel, who could only heave a soundless sigh as he looked at her from the back.

In the future that Ian had planned for Nora, Justin was the queen in her harem.
As for the concubines, they sure were pitiful.
They wouldn’t even be getting an official status.

Just like that, Justin-aka the queen-started to play multiple roles all by himself without him even knowing.

The next day, Nora only woke up at noon as usual.
When she went downstairs, she saw Tanya standing there and looking at her nervously.
She said, “Nora, I will go with you to pick him up and bring him home!”

Nora yawned.

Before she came home the day before, she had gone over and visited Karl again.
He was still the same as ever.
He had even asked her to tell Tanya to prepare some dumplings for him to eat that day.

In the kitchen, the dumplings were already all wrapped and laid out on the tray, stuffed to the brim with fillings.

Nora took a couple of bites from a slice of bread.
Then, she went to the special department with Tanya.

When the two arrived, Karl had not been acquitted yet.
Nora took Tanya to visit him first.

When he saw Tanya, Karl chuckled and asked, “Are the dumplings all wrapped and done?”

Tanya looked at him huffily and folded her arms as she replied fiercely, “No, they aren’t!”

Karl grinned and scratched his tattooed arm.
“Well, never mind if they aren’t done yet, what are you being so fierce for? You’re not like your mom at all!”

At the mention of Tanya’s mother, Tanya fell silent for a moment before she asked, “What was she like?”

Margot, who had killed Jill and stolen her identity, had always beaten and scolded Tanya since she was a child.
If it weren’t for the fact that she was afraid that others would discover her identity, she would probably have drowned Tanya a long time ago.
But it was precisely because of Tanya’s existence that no one ever connected her to Margot.

Tanya had never experienced a mother’s love.

Karl was about to tell her about Jill when Johnson suddenly knocked on the door outside and said, “Karl, Terry is here!” As they had to deal with work matters, Nora led Tanya out of the room.

Karl was waving at them.
The burly man looked just like a kid asking for candy.
He said, “I’ll tell you all about it when we get home!”

Tanya rolled her eyes.

Even though she cared for him, on the surface, she was always acting as if she didn’t.
Nora, however, was staring at the man named Terry.
He had wrinkles on his face and was in a wheelchair.
Johnson pushed the man in the wheelchair into the interrogation room…

For some reason, a foreboding feeling suddenly welled up in Nora.

Sure enough, some time later, a gunshot suddenly rang out in the room!!!

Bang!

Nora’s pupils shrank and she rushed over!
