Chapter 455



Pete looked at his sister and then at his aunt. He hurriedly threw down the Math Olympiad book. Just as Cherry was about to go down the stairs, he rushed to stop her. “Cherry, Aunt Brenda is here!”

Cherry: “?”

She poked her head out and was about to look down when Pete stopped her.

Cherry asked in confusion, “Pete, isn’t she a nice person?”

Pete was silent for a moment before shaking his head. “It’s not that. The thing is…Aunt Brenda’s a little weird. You… you should stay away from her.”

Cherry: “?”

Brenda, who was listening to the two children talk downstairs, was speechless. Why did she feel slighted?

She stood up. “Pete, what happened to you, is that how you talk about me? Come down here.”

Pete looked at Cherry and motioned for her to come back inside. Then he walked slowly down the stairs. Just as he was coming down, he saw Brenda looking up at him with a slight smile. “Pete, come on.”

Pete stepped in front of her.

The next moment, Brenda extended her demonic claws. “Come, take off your pants. Let me see if you’ve grown!”

Pete: “!!!!”

He turned and ran away. Brenda wanted to chase him, but was stopped by Justin. “Stop.”

Pete ran upstairs and let out a sigh of relief. He lowered his head and looked at Justin. Sure enough, Justin said, “Pete, go inside and take care of your sister. Tell your mom and sister not to come downstairs.”

“Okay, Dad!”

With that, Pete pushed open the bedroom door and went inside.

Brenda was speechless.

She raised her eyebrows and looked up. Then, she sat down next to Justin and grabbed his arm. “Justin, aren’t you…protecting her too much? I can’t eat her.”

Justin felt a little uncomfortable with her being so close to him. Even though he and Brenda were just normal siblings, he pushed her arm down. “You can’t eat her.”

It was enough that Nora wouldn’t eat her!

What Justin was worried about, however, was….

His little sister might lead Nora astray!

Brenda liked men and had had boyfriends since kindergarten. She played with any handsome man she could find….. Cherry, who had a complex about liking beautiful people, might well become like her.

Although Nora had not yet expressed her fondness for beauty, days would pass. What if she let herself be led astray?

Justin wanted to fundamentally eliminate this possibility!

Besides, he definitely, definitely, definitely wasn’t to let Brenda and Cherry get together. Brenda stared at him and narrowed her eyes slightly. At the mention of that woman, Justin was always cautious. Knowing his personality, he wouldn’t even let her see Nora. Brenda snorted and stood up, swaying at the waist. “You refuse to let me see her, but I still want to see her. I want to see what kind of stunning beauty can mesmerize my brother. Anyway, I have nothing to do in the morning and I just have to meet someone at noon. I’ll just sit here. I don’t think I can sleep until noon.”

Justin was silent for a moment before standing up suddenly. “Okay, you do whatever you want. I’ll go first.”

Brenda: “???”

Justin went upstairs and into the guest room study to work.

Brenda actually sat downstairs, she just stared at the people coming and going. Louis was so scared that he slipped away. When he walked past her, Brenda was still looking at him. “Louis, what are you doing, are you going on a date?”

Louis stopped in his tracks. “…I’m meeting to play with Chester.”

“Play?” Brenda smiled, “You’re meeting a girl, right?”.

Louis: “?”

He answered earnestly, “Brenda, it’s a real game!”.

Brenda rested her chin on one hand and nodded with a smile. “I understand. You must be careful. Remember to use protection. Don’t fool around.”

Louis: “!!!!”

He emphasized again. “Brenda, we’ll actually just play games!”

Brenda cocked her head to the side and smiled. “I know, I’m talking about games too. Be prepared. Don’t get killed by the others.”

Louis: “…”

The corners of his lips twitched. “I’ll go first!”

There was wind beneath his feet as if he feared Brenda would say something outrageous!

Brenda sat down on the couch and looked up boredly. Then she looked at her watch. It was almost 11 o’clock in the morning.

Had Nora stayed up all night?

At that moment, housekeeper Lucy brought her a fruit tray. Brenda took the opportunity to ask, “Did your Miss Smith stay up late last night?”

Lucy shook her head in confusion. “No, Miss Nora’s schedule is very strict. Every night at 10 PM, no later than 12 AM, she will definitely sleep! Yesterday, she slept with Master Pete and Miss Cherry at 9 PM.”

Brenda: “???”

She slept at 9. Why was she still asleep?

She must have slept 14 hours.

She looked at Lucy in confusion. “Are you feeling sick?”

Maybe she was sick?

Lucy was not happy. “Our Miss Nora is very healthy!”

What was Miss Hunt saying? Although she was quite beautiful and graceful, why was she indirectly cursing someone else with illness!

Brenda hesitated for a moment, but her voice was still elegant and charming. “So he slept for 14 hours, aren’t you going to take a look?”

What if he passed out in the room?

Lucy sounded unconcerned. “It’s only been 14 hours, what’s the hurry?”

Miss Nora had slept over fifty hours in the last two days. Wasn’t she still energetic?

Lucy shook her head and looked at Brenda. Brenda didn’t seem to know how the world moved here.

Brenda was speechless.

She felt like she was in a fantasy world.

When all the Smiths came downstairs to eat, Maureen called to her politely, “Miss Hunt, it’s time to eat.”

Brenda stood up and looked at the crowded table. She asked, “Aren’t you going to wait for Miss Smith to come?

Maureen: “Oh, she probably wants to sleep a little longer. Let’s eat first! Come on.”

Brenda was speechless.

She said in a daze, “No need. I’m meeting someone for lunch. I’m going to go.”

After leaving the Smiths, she still felt dizzy.

The moment Brenda left, some movement was finally heard in the bed upstairs.

Nora opened her eyes groggily and pulled out her phone. She saw that there were a few missed calls on her phone.

They were all from Morris.

She hesitated for a moment before calling him. Morris answered quickly. “Miss Smith, our department has formed a special team to investigate the human experiments back then. Now, I would like to invite you to be the outside medical examiner for our team, are you interested?”

Nora stretched and was about to answer that she was not interested when she heard Morris say, “Don’t you want to know what exactly happened to your mother back then? Besides, I have some very important information about you. I wanted to inform you that you are actually in a lot of danger.”

These words made Nora narrow her eyes.

She remembered her mother’s words. “…You have to be mediocre, or your life will be in danger!”

What kind of danger could she be in?

Morris continued, “Of course, if you can join us, I’ll tell you some secrets about the case!”

Hearing this, Nora lowered her almond-shaped eyes. “Tell them to me first.”

“…Okay.”
