Chapter 96 A Broken Bond
I didn’t stop walking. Inside, I couldn’t help but laugh coldly.
Haha, so he’s willing to kill me for the inheritance?
With that tiny heart and narrow mind, it was already a miracle he made it to a colonel in the army.
Back in my room, I narrowed my eyes, danger simmering beneath the surface.
Everyone in this family, except Felix, pretty much wants me gone. Norman is just one more name on that
list.
We already fell out a while ago; one more clash doesn’t matter. If I didn’t push back now and then, they’d think I was easy to bully. They’d use the same tricks over and over to make trouble for me.
Still, this clash wasn’t completely useless.
When I mentioned my late mom, Laurel and Norman’s reactions were interesting.
Laurel looked guilty and scared, like she was hiding something. Norman covered it with anger, but the panic in his eyes was real.
I sat down at my computer and opened the files Luke sent me. I looked through them again, trying to find something-anything-that connected the two of them.
Nothing.
I stopped reading and called Harvey.
“Hey, Thora.” His voice was full of surprise, like he never expected me to call.
“Are you familiar with Starlance City?” I asked.
Harvey said, “Of course I am! Just ask. What do you want to know?”
NE

“I need you to find an empty house for me. It has to be outside any pack territory. Clean. Quiet. Private.”
“A house? Are you moving out?”
“Just find it. If you can’t, I’ll get someone else.” I didn’t want to waste time explaining.
Harvey promised, “Okay, okay, I’ll start asking around right away.
I made a small grunt and hung up.
