CHAPTER 737: CHAPTER 737: SOMEONE SAVED HER

Upon realizing something was amiss, Nora Northwood immediately sent her whereabouts to Elaine.

Her charming face became somewhat bland.

In the gap of waiting for rescue, Nora repeatedly pondered, who would truly want to lock her in here?

The people she had offended could be counted on her fingers.

Yuna Hughes, now a wealthy lady engrossed in Mahjong, having sold her self-created brand at a low price after marriage, was unlikely related to this.

Rachel Woodward’s family ended up in jail, and the ones from the second house had learned their lesson and wouldn’t dare interfere again.

Who else could it be?

Nora racked her brains, but truly couldn’t figure it out.

The sustained low temperature of the wine cellar was slowly lowering her body temperature, forcing her to huddle her shoulders.

The more vulnerable she felt, the more she thought of the people she cared about.

However, Nora knew that this time, Jasper Sinclair wouldn’t show up... he was exhausting all his efforts to save another person.

She suddenly regretted it, wishing she hadn’t let Jasper leave Stanton City.

Wait... as soon as Jasper left, someone came to harm her?

There might be some connection between these two events.

Nora continued to think deeply, but her eyelids began to droop uncontrollably.

She pinched her inner thigh, continuously reminding herself she mustn’t faint.

The lack of oxygen here meant she probably couldn’t hold on much longer.

...

Nora opened her eyes again, and the first thing she saw was the hospital ceiling, with Elaine right by her bedside.

"Daughter, you, you’re awake!"

Seeing her awake, Elaine was so thrilled she was at a loss for words.

In her entire life, she had never been as panicked as she was last night.

"Mom, I’m fine."

Nora’s complexion was slightly pale, making her appear even more delicate, but she managed to pull out a weak smile.

"It’s all my fault for not being by your side and letting you be schemed against by a villain."

"It’s okay, now I’m all right."

Nora tried to sit up but found she was too weak, the cold having seeped into her bones. She asked, "Was I unconscious for a long time?"

"Vincent Morgan didn’t find you until it was nearly dark. You slept from last night until now, about twenty hours."

"Morgan?"

"He heard something happened to you and insisted on helping. In the end, he was the one who found you in the wine cellar."

Nora uttered an "oh," feeling neither much emotion nor the joy of survival.

Elaine asked if she wanted to eat something, but she said she had no appetite and just wanted some warm water.

Due to her weakness, she stayed in the hospital that night.

That night, Nora received a message from Jasper Sinclair saying, "Peach Bell is missing. I’ve mobilized the Sinclair Family’s forces in Melbourne to find her soon, and I’ll return to Stanton City as soon as I find her."

She repeatedly studied the content of the message, finding it extremely laughable.

Her man was completely unaware of her injury, and moreover, he was reporting to her about another woman’s situation.

Frankly, it was an enormous joke.

Nora didn’t reply, set down her phone, and continued to stare blankly at the ceiling.

To be honest, she felt very conflicted.

That night, she was the one who agreed to Jasper going to Melbourne for the rescue, and now, she was the one upset and throwing a tantrum.

She didn’t know what mindset she would have to deal with them if Jasper brought Peach Bell back.
