?Chapter 441:


    The crucial question came up.


    Back then, whoever was found to be the murderer would go to jail.


    Without a second thought, Derek had decided to protect Madeline. In response, Kathy’s behavior had be vindictive.


    Madeline said gently, “Silly girl, do you really think your family would let you suffer in jail? You’re the only one who can bargain with Norah. If it were me, your family would definitely abandon me.”


    That was why she shifted the me onto Kathy the moment she reached the Carters. Knowing Kathy’s ways, she expected Kathy to point fingers at her first. They were both only thinking about saving themselves. The best n she could think of was to put all the me on Kathy to keep herself out of trouble.


    Kathy considered Madeline’s words carefully, finding them logical.


    “Kathy, I know my words seemed harsh before. I’ve always wanted to clear the air with you, but you’ve misunderstood my intentions, and we never got the chance.”


    Kathy felt ashamed. She had gone too far with Madeline that day, resorting to pping her.


    “Madeline, I was wrong about you.”

    Madeline dismissed it with a wave of her hand and said, “You’re Derek’s sister, so I won’t hold it against you. Since you’re doubtful of me, why don’t we both go and find some people spreading rumors, just to make Norah’s life a bit more difficult?” Kathy quickly agreed, “Alright.”


    After finishing work, Norah found that the rumors had intensified again.


    “Norah’s been going wild since the divorce! She’s getting cozy with all kinds of big shots!”


    These were the rumors circting about Norah, and onlinementators quickly took the opportunity to nder her again.


    “Recently divorced and already hanging out with rich guys. Amazing! And they’re from the Scott, Andrews, Morris, and Hayes families! That’s shocking!”


    “She looks charming. And she’s quite the maniptor.”


    “Rich people just can’t resist her good looks! It’s nothing more than shallow flirting.”


    “Her private life is out of control! She’s even had rtionships with women!”


    The rumors now suggested that Norah was interested in women. A photo featuring Joanna was posted.


    Norah refreshed her social media and noticed that the poprity of the posts had decreased significantly throughout the day. They were no longer trending, likely because Sean’s people had intervened.


    Yet Norah’s day took another hit as a new rumor emerged.


    It seemed like today was filled with rumors targeting her. Joanna stated, “I really like Norah, but I’m straight!!!”


    She emphasized her point with three exmation marks! Norahughed and responded, “Don’t worry about it. Just ignore thements.”


    When Norah got into the car parked at the hospital entrance, she could tell Sean was upset.


    “Honey, did someone upset you today?”


    Norah put her phone aside and tenderly held his hand.


    “What’s wrong? Who upset you?”


    Sean stayed quiet. Phillip interjected, “It’s the online abuse! Mr. Scott was furious when he saw them.”


    Sean was truly angry and saddened by the nasty words aimed at Norah!


    Fortunately, he managed to control his anger.


    Norah was Sean’s emotional support. Her mere presence soothed him, especially during his low moments.


    It was a relief for everyone to have someone to calm Sean down when he was upset. Otherwise, they had to deal with his anger, which made them all uneasy. But with Norah there, Sean was emotionally stable, except for the asional argument.
