After hanging up the phone, Nora followed Justin into the study.
Justin closed the door thoughtfully and looked at her with a smile.
“What do you want to ask me?”
He was very happy.He felt that Nora was finally willing to talk to him when she met with a problem.
This feeling of being needed gave him an indescribable sense of satisfaction.
Nora didn’t understand what he was smiling at.
Instead, she looked at him.
Suddenly, she asked, “Do you know Eagle?”
Justin was taken aback for a moment.He asked hesitantly, “What?”
Nora was also a little surprised seeing his expression.
Justin had always been very relaxed in front of her, but when she said the codename ‘Eagle’ just now,
Justin did not react? Wasn’t he Eagle? During her hesitation, Justin asked again, “What Eagle? A
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcodename ‘Eagle’? What organization is he from? That codename is too common.There are a lot of…”
Although there was an Eagle in the Imperial League, the codename was simply too common.
He needed to ask and properly clarify.
However, his reaction made Nora even more certain that he was not Eagle.
Nora kept quiet for a long while.
When they joined the Imperial League, they had sworn that they would not tell outsiders about its
existence.
They were allowed to use the information they got from the organization to help their relatives, but they
were not allowed to reveal the source of the information.
Outside, they were not allowed to mention the Imperial League.
Earlier, she had thought that Justin was Eagle, that was why she had told him that she wanted to ask him
about someone.
But if Justin was not Eagle, then she was not allowed to talk to him about anything regarding the Imperial
League, let alone ask him who King was.
Nora had always been a rule-abiding person.
Therefore, in the end, she chose not to ask about it anymore.
Moreover, as there would be a lot of guests on that day, he would also have to prepare sufficient parking
space and arrange for security personnel.
The Hunts would probably be very busy soon.
Justin’s one-liner had quite literally put the butler up to his ears in work! Before leaving the room, the
butler suddenly stopped and looked back at Justin.
He asked, “Is the birthday party for Mr.Pete and Ms.Cherry?”
“Yeah” replied Justin with a nod.With that, the butler understood and went out.Elsewhere, after Nora was
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdone dealing with her affairs, she didn’t stay any longer.After all, she had ended up wasting some time
giving Charles medical treatment.Thus, she was going home to sleep.
The strange thing, though, was that Pete, who usually followed her everywhere, had actually taken the
initiative to say that he wanted to stay at the Hunts, saying that if he went with her to the Smiths, he
might affect Nora’s rest.
Nora could only agree to his request.
After thinking about it, she asked Pete to the side and said earnestly, “Pete, don’t bully the boy, okay?”
Pete fell silent for a moment when he heard her.
Then, he tilted his head and asked, “But what if he bullies Mommy?”
Nora smiled and ruffled his hair.
Her voice was very low but reassuring as she said, “I know Pete is a filial boy, but no one is capable of
bullying Mommy.Okay?”
Pete looked up at her.
Nora was very tall.He was only as tall as her waist at the moment.
In his eyes, his Mommy was gentle and strong.
Pete had never needed anyone or anything to give him cover, but in front of his mother, he abandoned
all his sneaky thoughts and conspiracies, wanting only to be the most well-behaved child in front of her.
