Nora returned after the phone call to find the atmosphere around Morris and Brenda a bit strange. However, she didn’t dwell on it too much. Instead, she said to Brenda, “Let’s go.”
“Oh, okay.”
Brenda followed Nora out. After they got into the car, they returned to the villa.
Justin was still using his cell phone on the sofa as he waited for them.
As for Solo, he was occupied with the gadget. After dismantling the box, he had changed its components to the best ones available and was installing them at the moment. Upon noticing the two ladies, both men turned to face them.
Solo gazed at Brenda with a scorching look in his eyes while Justin gave Nora a gentle smile.
The man was not only smiling more often these days but also becoming more and more charismatic.
Nora shifted her gaze to the upper floor and said, “I’ll go check up on Marcus’ mom.”
“Okay.”
Upstairs, Lily and a psychologist were giving Marcus’ mom a checkup. The woman, who had already come to, screamed, “Stay away from me! Marcus, help! Save me!”
When Nora entered, Marcus’ mom looked at her in panic. “Who are you? What are you trying to do to me? Where’s my daughter-in-law? Brenda, save me!”
Nora cast her eyes down and said, “Why don’t you just drop the act?”
Marcus’ mom paused. However, a brief moment later, she continued to scream. “Marcus! Where’s Marcus?! Brenda! Help!”
Next to her, Lily said, “This is Anti, the renowned surgeon and cornerstone of the Alternative Medicine Association. Identifying medical symptoms is as easy as ABC to her. Feigning illness is pointless in front of her, Mrs. Robinson.”
Mrs. Robinson was Marcus’ mother.
Lily had avoided referring to her as Marcus’ mother as she felt that the term of address would sadden her further.
When Mrs. Robinson heard what Lily said, she quietened down at last.
Nora looked at her and said, “I know it’s difficult for you, but the ones who have already passed wouldn’t want you to torment the ones who are still alive.”
Mrs. Robinson immediately screamed, “Why?!”
