Thea sneered, "Nora, you are truly a cunning rabbit. Cunning as a fox, Thorne took away one of your burrows before, but you managed to escape with your tail intact. Now you want to pull the same trick again, but I am not Thorne. There is no way I would allow you to have another chance to rise from the ashes." "You were very cruel." "Could you be heartless? For money, your hands were stained with so much blood." Nora's elegance and luxury could no longer be sustained, and she broke down, shouting, "I didn't plot to harm Robert just to take over your medical team. It was Robert, damn him, who forced me to return all the businesses to the Miller family. Why should I? Those were all the territor

“You’ve been lying to me, Stefan. Adrian was the first person to actually admit it out loud. Do you know how humiliating that is?” He sighed, running a hand through his dark hair. “I haven’t lied to you, Shania. I’ve omitted things, yes. But I’ve never lied.” “Oh, so that makes it okay?” I shot back. “You’ve been manipulating my life from the beginning, haven’t you? Why? Why me, Stefan?” He looked at me, his expression unreadable. “Because you were the one,” he said softly. I laughed bitterly. “The one what? The one with a name that starts with ‘S’? That’s it, isn’t it? I’m just a pawn in whatever twisted plan you’ve been cooking up.”

What the hell? This can’t be! I’m probably seeing wrong, they just look alike. I gulped, looking away. “Are you okay?” Frank whispered close to me, his hand gently rubbing my palm. I slowly looked at him, forcing a smile on my face. “Of course.” I nodded, feeling a lump in my throat. “I just hurt my nail,” I lied, picking up my purse while avoiding looking at him. “Uncle Frank!” The young man cheered, walking towards us, my body shook from his presence, I could feel the hair on my skin rise in both excitement and fear.

I pleaded, desperately peeling his hand off mine and swiftly walking away. As I hurriedly made my way towards the office I had been directed to, I couldn't shake off the nagging thought that if that guy was indeed a worker there, how could he afford such an extravagantly expensive car? Pushing the question aside, I made my way to the receptionist. "Hi I'm Nora Roberts, I was told to resume today" I said to the beautiful blonde lady who looked nice. She returned my smile and searched through some files as she spoke "Oh you're the new Personal Assistant to Mr Nathaniel Lockhart"

"Really, Alpha Blake? Are you honestly going to buy this? She's a wicked little maid. Why would I stoop to her ways, anyway?" The maid's voice wavered, but she held firm. "Alpha Blake, I'm telling the truth. Miss Nora was very clear about what she wanted me to do. I didn't want to do it, but she insisted." Nora's eyes narrowed dangerously. "You little liar," she said through her teeth. "Do you know what happens to people who spread lies about their betters?" Before she could take a step in the girl's direction, though, Blake intervened, his voice sharp and commanding.

“Oh, you poor soul!” What was this deranged woman going on about? She placed her hands on my desk and leaned over, her huge breasts nearly escaping from the deep v-neck of her top. “Rumor has it that every woman who has been involved with Liam romantically… always found their way six feet under,” she whispered and then straightened with a smirk. “But then again, it wasn't a rumor and it indeed happens every time,” she added with an eerie wide smile. Maybe it was the way she suddenly dropped the news without batting an eyelid or the unhinged look in her eyes that sent cold shivers down my spine.

Paul turned toward Nora, who smiled at the two couples on the couch. "It's nice to meet you. I promise Jon will not get out. I will do everything in my power to keep you from having to testify against him. With all the evidence, it shouldn't be necessary unless you want to." Nora held her hand out to each person as she spoke. Natalia immediately liked her. She was short, probably no more than five foot two, with short blonde hair cut in a pixie cut. As cute as she was, Natalia could tell she was all business and could command a room. She smiled at her.

So, her rage right now is something that Anna cannot fully comprehend. “You know,” Nora continued while Anna stared at her in shock. “I never realized how insecure you were with Lara all this time. I always admired you for not caring about what the media said. I always loved how self-assured you were. But who would have known that you were actually just a viper in disguise!” Anna took a step back, shocked with Nora’s words. “Nora, how can you say such a thing? You don’t really mean that, do you?” “Of course I mean it! You tried to trap my brother into this marriage, and now he’s gone because of you!” Nora jabbed a finger at her.

“I know everything about you. Why didn’t you just tell me what you needed the money for?” “Coz I don’t want to be somebody’s charity case. I can manage on my own.” “By trying to fuck your way to Mars?” “If needed, yeah I would. I love those kids.” “Why did you tell me your name was Nora?” "My family calls me Nora. So do the kids." “Do you work for Tony?” “Yes. He wants me to spy for him on a rival mob.” She lied. "Cancel your deal with him and I'll help you."
