Chapter 285

lan was silent for a long time before he suddenly asked, "Did your mother say anything before she
passed away?"

Nora: lan had called her over so openly just to ask this question ? He wanted to know if her mother had
left any words for him before she died.

What did he want her mother to say? That she regretted it? That she loved him? Or something else?
Sensing that she did not speak for a long time, lan laughed dryly and said, "What was I thinking? You
were only half a year old when she passed away.How could you know?"

Nora: He has already answered his own question.

Why does he still want her to answer? She did not say anything else and waited for him to ask her to
bring him back.

However, after a moment of hesitation, lan said, "You can go back first."

Nora:”???"

She nodded and opened the sliding door, returning to the hall.

Looking at her back, lan was silent for a long time.

He felt like he was looking at Yvette from more than twenty years ago.

Not only did the mother and daughter look alike, but their temperaments were also similar.

They were the kind of people who did whatever they wanted and did not care about how others looked
at them.

Back then, Yvette had offended many people because of this personality.



She had become the public enemy of many women.

However, she never cared about what others said about her behind her back.

The words she often said were: "Will I lose a pound of flesh if they say a few words about me? Since I
won't, why should I care?"

"They're talking about me behind my back because they're jealous of me”

"It's all my fault for being so outstanding that I became the topic of conversation.Sigh, I, with my beauty
and intelligence coexisting together am simply too perfect.I'm afraid it's only because I'm too
impressive!"

She was narcissistic and mockingly snobbish.

However, the mother and daughter were different.

Yvette was a talkative woman, and although she looked very graceful, that image was broken once she
spoke.

On the other hand, Nora was very quiet.

It was as if she could not even bring herself to talk.

lan was immersed in his own thoughts and could not extricate himself.

When Nora walked out of the balcony, Yvonne caught her immediately.

Seeing her calm expression, lan did not seem to have said anything overboard.

That made sense.



No matter how much money her father gave her, was it worth as much as the Hunt Corporation? Any
woman would choose Justin.

She lowered her gaze, her eyes glinting.

Nora yawned.

Just as she was about to look for Cherry, she turned around and accidentally bumped into someone.

She looked over and saw a familiar face.

It was Rachel.

Nora was stunned.

She subconsciously said, "I'm sorry"

When she said this, her tone was cold and arrogant.

With that, she lowered her head slightly and planned to walk around Rachel.

However, after taking two steps, she was stopped by the other party.

"You bumped into me.Is it over just by apologizing?"

Nora:"?"

She was a little confused for a moment as her lips curled into a mocking smile.

"Should I kneel and beg for mercy?"

It was just a bump.It did not hurt her...



Nora really did not know how to apologize.

Rachel was furious.

"What kind of attitude is that?"

Nora: What was wrong with her attitude? She was about to say something when Yvonne grabbed I
Rachel and smiled apologetically at Nora.

"Miss Smith, it's nothing."

After saying that, she whispered to Rachel, "Rachel, take it I easy.She's Mr.Hunt's girlfriend.Under such
circumstances, don't be so rude to her!"

Rachel instantly exploded.

When she was at home, her father would often scold her, saying that she was wrong in this and was
not good at that.

He would say she could not compare to Nora and even asked her to contact Nora more often when she
was free.

Yeah right! Nora was a country bumpkin from the countryside.

Why should she curry favors with her? That was why she looked for Yvonne.

In the entire New York, other than Miss Hunt, who had studied abroad, Yvonne was probably the most
respected.

But why was even Yvonne afraid of Nora now? Rachel panicked and pushed Yvonne away.



"What are you afraid of? She's just an illegitimate daughter.How can she compare to you?"

Yvonne panicked.

"Don't talk nonsense..."

At this moment, Rachel spoke without thinking.

Her voice instantly rose.

"How am I talking nonsense? Am I wrong? Didn't you see it during the last live broadcast? Her father
isn't even her biological father! Her mother was pregnant before she even got married.She got her
father to be a spare tire and take over!"

At this moment, lan turned his head when he heard this.

Rachel's voice was so loud that everyone in the banquet hall looked over.

Justin had been paying attention to Nora's situation, so he caught the argument immediately and
hurriedly walked over.

Nora had already narrowed her almond-shaped eyes.

Her cold eyes were filled with anger.

"What did you say?"

Although she had never experienced motherly love, her mother had given her life, and she would not
allow anyone to insult her mother.

Rachel's voice spread clearly throughout the entire venue.



"Why? She has always been an unclean person.Why can't she be told off? Back then, everyone knew
that she betrayed Mr.Smith and eloped with someone else! I guess the other party didn't want her
anymore, right? That ‘s why she found such a money-loving person to be her scapegoat."

"As the saying goes, if the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked.Your mother was
pregnant before marriage, and so were you.Didn't she also have a daughter with another hooligan? But
you're better than your mother.At the very least, your designated driver to be the spare tire is Mr.Hunt!"

"At the end of the day, you're just an illegitimate daughter who doesn't even know who her biological
father is.You're just like your daughter.Why? I'm afraid your daughter will also be a beauty when she
grows up, right? When the time comes, will she also have to find someone to get pregnant before she
gets married? I just don't know if there will be a good match like Mr.Hunt then!"

Nora clenched her hands into fists.

Her anger rose as she took a step forward, preparing to beat her up.

In the distance, Justin had already arrived in front of her.

His expression became even uglier, and he looked like he wanted to kill someone.
