Chapter 675 I've Found Another Heiress for You
Family care was the warmest.
Nora smiled. "Alright, everyone, smile. Next time something happens, I'll definitely tell you all first."
"There won't be a next time. From now on, we will go smoothly until we're old!" Emma said unhappily.
"Yes, everything will go smoothly for all of us."
Nora said a few more words to appease Emma.
"Nora, is Aaron at the Jones family now?" Ebenezer asked.
"Yes."
"Could that imposter be Aaron's cousin, Jackson Gordon?"
"Yes."
Ebenezer's face darkened.
"The main branch of the Gordon family is really cunning to come up with such a trick."
Kenneth, standing nearby, nodded in agreement.
"Yes, the main branch of the Gordon family is indeed very cunning." Nora sighed.
"So what does Aaron plan to do next?" Ebenezer asked.
Nora glanced at him and didn't rush to answer. Instead, she asked, "Dad, Kenneth, you know about the Bilian Group, right?"
Ebenezer and Kenneth exchanged a look, and Kenneth nodded. "Yes, the Bilian Group is a well-known multinational corporation."
Ebenezer said, "I remember it was the Bilian Group's Vice President Richard who helped clear Howard's name when he was falsely accused of bribery by that kid from the Swift family, right?"
"Yes."
"I also heard that the Bilian Group has been quite unstable recently," Ebenezer added.
Nora nodded. "There's something I think I need to be honest with you about."
"What is it?"
"The founder of the Bilian Group, Zack, is Evella's biological father. Richard is Evella's uncle."
Nora's words left everyone present stunned.
No one expected such a connection.
After a while, Sandy was the first to ask, "Nora, does Howard know about this?"
Nora smiled. "He just found out. Before, he almost mistook Richard for a romantic rival and tried to fight him."
Hearing this, Sandy burst into laughter.
"So he ended up offending Evella's uncle?"
"Yes. Fortunately, Evella spoke up for him, and since Richard dotes on her, he didn't make things difficult for my brother."
Nora told a white lie in front of her family.
Of course, Richard indeed didn't make things too difficult for Howard.
At most, he just teased Howard a bit and occasionally gave him a hard time.
That was quite normal!
"How could you keep such a big thing from us?"
Emma hadn't expected Evella to have such a background.
The heiress of the Bilian Group!
This status was much better than being the granddaughter of the Remington family.
In this way, she was a good match for Howard.
But then again, Evella's background wasn't exactly honorable.
Evella's father was a rapist.
If Evella was indeed the heiress of the Bilian Group, then her father, Zack, was the rapist from back then!
"Nora, is that Zack, the rapist who kidnapped Evella's mother back then?"
Hearing this, Nora's face turned a bit serious.
"Mom, some things shouldn't be taken at face value."
Emma frowned. "But Evella's mother was indeed raped and got pregnant back then!"
"That's true, but Zack had his reasons."
Nora briefly explained what Zack had gone through back then.
Everyone listened attentively and couldn't help but feel a sense of empathy.
"So, because of this, Richard found Evella but hasn't publicly acknowledged their relationship yet, fearing it would damage Zack's reputation?"Kenneth interjected.
"Yes." Nora nodded and added, "Also, as Dad just mentioned, the Bilian Group is currently unstable. Revealing Evella's identity now might put her in danger. After all, there are internal power struggles for the heir position within the Bilian Group."
Listening to Nora's explanation, Ebenezer nodded.
Thinking of something, he said, "Nora, we were just talking about Aaron. How did we get onto the Bilian Group? Could it be that Aaron's car accident is related to the Bilian Group?"
Hearing this, Nora praised Ebenezer.
"Exactly. As expected of you, Dad. You have a sharp mind."
Ebenezer felt quite pleased with Nora's compliment.
He curled his lips into a smile but then restrained it.
"Could it be that people from the Bilian Group and the main branch of the Gordon family teamed up to try to kill Aaron?"
Nora nodded. "Zack's car accident might also be related to internal people within the Bilian Group. Richard is investigating and said he would let us know the results."
Kenneth thought for a moment. "As long as we have evidence proving that the main branch of the Gordon family and internal people from the Bilian Group colluded to kill Aaron, we have a chance to expose Jackson Gordon's true face. Then things will be much simpler."
Nora smiled. "Makes sense."
While they were discussing, Emma was distracted.
Her focus was now on Howard's marriage.
If Evella was the heiress of the Bilian Group, that would naturally be a good thing.
But the title of being the daughter of a rapist was hard for her to accept.
It would be great if they could clarify the events of the past to the public.
But it was clear that the Rogers family wouldn't do that.
What a pity!
At this moment, Howard returned and saw everyone sitting on the sofa. He was a bit taken aback.
"Mom, Dad, Kenneth, Sandy, Nora, are you having a family meeting?"
Emma glanced at him and said, "Yes, we're discussing your marriage."
Hearing this, Howard felt a sudden tightness in his chest.
"Mom, are you trying to introduce me to another heiress?"
Emma's eyes flashed, and she deliberately said, "Yes, I've found another heiress for you."
Everyone present was stunned and looked at her.
They were all wondering when Emma had taken it upon herself to find a girlfriend for Howard again.
Howard was speechless. "No, Mom, you know I..."
"Howard, this time, the heiress I've found for you will definitely satisfy you."
Emma interrupted him and added, "If you're not satisfied, then I'll call you Mom!"
Howard almost choked on his saliva.
"Mom, stop joking."
"I'm not joking. Don't you want to know which heiress I've found for you?" Emma said calmly.
Howard felt a bit hopeless.
"Who?"
"She's the heiress of the Bilian Group."
Howard had been thinking that no matter what Emma said, he would firmly protest.
He had even prepared his protest speech.
However, what did he just hear?
The heiress of the Bilian Group.
That would be Evella.
Howard stood there, stunned, unable to react.
He couldn't figure out whether Emma knew about Evella's connection to the Bilian Group.
"Mom."
Nora blinked and finally reacted, bursting into laughter.
It seemed Emma didn't oppose Howard and Evella being together after all.
"Howard, I've already told everyone about Evella and Richard's relationship."
