The Captain I Married by Chance novel Chapter 32

Grace was the name of Nora's mother.

Mia still remembered the sinister look in her mother's eyes when she told her about it.

She had said, firmly and sharply, "We absolutely cannot let that mother and daughter back into our lives!"

"Don't be fooled by your father's silence. The truth is, he's proud to have such an outstanding daughter like Nora. We have to find a way to get rid of them!"

Mia had always kept her mother's words etched in her heart.

But as the days went by, she could never find an opportunity.

Just last night, Aaron had been turned away by Nora and came to her to vent.

Now today, he was chasing after Nora like a puppy, which infuriated Mia.

That's why she'd been so worked up and came to confront Nora today.

She had expected to see Nora furious and breaking down, but instead, Nora was as terrifyingly calm as ever.

She, on the other hand, had acted impulsively and was now trapped in a difficult position.

"I didn't…"

Mia's mind raced, and she quickly devised a counter-strategy.

"I just came to thank Dr. Wells. I heard he was over here, so I came by. I didn't expect to see this patient looking so unwell. I just wanted to help…"

Mia wasn't worried about anyone exposing her lie.

Aaron was too busy trying to ingratiate himself with her to ever expose her.

As for everyone else—there were no security cameras here, so Nora couldn't possibly produce any evidence.

Now it was her word against Nora's, and it all depended on who the crowd chose to believe.

As she spoke, Mia deliberately showed off the wound on her face.
