?Chapter 527:


    Susanna couldn’t shake her self-doubt. She was sure she hadn’t felt it was wrong! But Amabel’s sincere apology left her puzzled.


    Norah gave a knowing smirk, amused by Amabel’s antics. To her, Amabel was nothing more than a sideshow.


    “Miss Morris, watch how you behave in the future. We know Spencer well enough to overlook this, but others might not be so forgiving,” she retorted sarcastically, refusing to be treated unfairly. Amabel managed a strained smile.


    Spencer addressed the group. “I just wanted to give you a heads-up so you can prepare yourselves mentally. Norah, Susanna, our ride is here. We’re heading out first. Take care.”


    He firmly grasped Amabel’s hand and guided her into the car, waving to the others as he rolled down the window. Spencer was a dependable and trustworthy friend, someone you could rely on without doubts of betrayal. Sadly, his sister didn’t seem to value his emotions much. The remaining three returned to Norah’s vi. Susanna felt she could rest better there and needed time to stabilize her emotions after the ident.


    Norah was amodating, allowing Susanna to stay as long as she needed.


    Sean had spent the previous night there. When Norah invited him to stay longer, he declined.


    “I have my ce. I’lle by now and then, but I don’t need to stay for extended periods.”


    He held Norah’s hand, reflecting for a moment before saying, “I’m here because of the mour Club issue. Don’t worry, we’ll handle it.”

    Spencer’s words today had set off an rm in his heart. The police would show up sooner orter. He feared Norah would be concerned.


    Norah certainly had her concerns. Since her return to the country, she had followed thew and avoided taking any lives. However, when the Fox Alliance showed up, she had to shoot to keep herself safe. From that point on, when faced with the terrifying assault by the Inferno Alliance, she had to protect Joanna and Susanna, defending herself using weapons.


    During the violence, her emotions had overwhelmed her, leaving her unable to think clearly. Afterward, she had to consider the police investigation. Last time, Sean’s intervention and Kaiden’s testimony cleared up her suspicions. This time, it would be tougher. She gently squeezed Sean’s hand and gave him a nod.


    A flicker of doubt crossed Sean’s eyes. Norah appearedposed, which made him question whether her previous fear, after the unintended killing of the Fox Alliance members, had been genuine or an act.


    With this thought in mind, he asked, “How do you see me? Was it an act?”
