Chapter 90 He Won't Let Anyone Insult His Children
Nora hesitated for a few seconds and asked, "Yesterday morning..."
Isaac's face darkened abruptly.
"Don't mention yesterday's matter. I already made it clear yesterday. The attachments I had to you have been destroyed by your own hands!"
With a bang, the door was forcefully shut.
Isaac's figure disappeared from the room.
Nora felt a pang of bitterness in her heart. The words he said yesterday morning still felt like a dream to her. He had actually been in love with her all this time. She wouldn't have believed it if Mortimer Radcliffe hadn't admitted the truth about the medicine, even if Isaac had confessed it himself.
Unfortunately, it didn't matter whether Isaac loved her or not. If he still loved her, she had to find a way to disgust him. He wouldn't be sad if the person he despised died. If he still loved her, he would definitely feel bad after learning about her death in the future.
The reason she asked Steve to move in with her was to show affection in front of Isaac, making him think that she had moved on. This way, Isaac could completely give up on her and not have any lingering feelings for her. Even though Isaac said he only had hatred for her now, she still worried. After all, she had done such extreme things four years ago, and he still loved her. She worried that he was just saying those things out of anger.
Nora composed herself and picked up her phone to text Steve, telling him about Isaac's recent request. Soon, Steve replied: [No problem, I don't want to meet him either. After all, I had some interactions with his grandmother, so it would be a bit uncomfortable for me to meet him.]
Nora: [Then come over later after you finish work. I will text you when he's not in the living room, and you can come in.]
Steve: [Okay.]
The next day.
At 7 p.m., Isaac finished work and returned home. After dinner, around 8 p.m., he went upstairs to his study.
Nora immediately sent a message to Steve: "He has gone upstairs. I am going out to bring you in!"
After sending the message, she quickly walked outside.
Meanwhile, in the study.
Isaac quickly changed his clothes and put on a human skin mask. Then, he went down from the secret passage in the study to the back of the villa on the ground floor. He then hurriedly walked towards the estate gate through a hidden path.
When he reached the estate gate, he saw Nora looking around for someone. Suddenly, Nora spotted Steve and ran towards him.
"Where were you?"
"I needed to use the restroom, so I went to find a place."
Nora's mouth twitched, and a hint of awkwardness flickered in her eyes.
She touched her nose and said, "You come in with me now."
"My ex-husband may also be afraid of gossip, so he removed all the servants from the villa. Now it's just him, me, and his mistress. You don't need to be too nervous."
Steve looked at her silently.
He clearly removed the staff because he was afraid of gossip about her.
Nora continued, "My ex-husband was a workaholic. After he went to the study, he would usually be busy until dawn and then go straight back to his room to rest. He wouldn't be wandering around."
"So, except when you need to avoid him when you go back, you don't need to deliberately avoid him the rest of the time. You two probably won't run into each other."
"Mhm," Steve replied casually.
During their conversation, they had already arrived at the entrance of the villa.
Nora led him inside.
"Hehe, I didn't expect you to actually bring this wild man here. You're the first shameless woman I've ever seen!"
Kalista was in the living room.
When she saw Nora bring Steve in, she immediately made sarcastic remarks.
Nora looked at her calmly, "Have you forgotten your identity? You're just my servant now. Mind your words, don't provoke me."
"What can you do to me? I already belong to Isaac now. Do you dare to do anything to me?" Kalista sneered.
"I'm not afraid of anything. Anyway, I'm pregnant now. Even if I do something to you, he won't lay a hand on me," Nora said.
"You..." Kalista's face turned from anger to embarrassment. "Don't bring up that bastard in your stomach. That wild man might be the father, not necessarily Isaac!"
Nora's eyes suddenly darkened.
She quickly walked up to Kalista...
"Smack!"
She slapped Kalista hard across the face.
Kalista's face instantly swelled up, and her head buzzed.
It took her a few seconds to regain her senses.
"You dare to hit me?" Kalista was furious, her lividity uncontrollable. She immediately stood up and raised her hand to slap Nora in the face.
"You slut, how dare you hit me? I will kill you!"
Nora moved to the side and kicked her in the stomach.
Kalista howled in pain and fell back to her seat.
Nora spoke coldly, "Next time if I hear you insulting my child in my stomach again, it won't be as simple as just hitting you, but I will silence your tongue!"
Kalista's pupils contracted, looking at Nora in terror.
"How could you dare?!"
Nora sneered, "There's nothing I wouldn't dare to do. If you don't believe me, you can try."
Kalista trembled all over.
Nora's face remained calm, but she could feel the chilling intent deep in her bones.
How could this despicable person exude such a terrifying aura?
Nora said indifferently, "If I were you, at this critical moment, I wouldn't cause trouble, but instead wait quietly for the results."
Kalista gritted her teeth fiercely.
She had also wanted to wait quietly for the outcome of her pregnancy.
However, she couldn't control her emotions when she saw Nora.
Nora took so much of what belonged to her and caused her so much misery. She hated this despicable person to the core and always tried to find ways to retaliate against her.
Even if she couldn't win, it was fine to humiliate her with a few harsh words.
Nora turned to Steve and said, "Let's go upstairs, ignore this crazy person."
"Okay."
Steve walked to her side, held her hand, and walked upstairs together.
"Nora, don't get carried away. When I become pregnant with Isaac's child in the future, Isaac will definitely not care about your illegitimate child in your belly and only want the child in my womb!"
"By then, I will return the slap you gave me today, tenfold!"
Kalista looked at Nora's back with a ferocious gaze and gritted her teeth angrily.
Nora didn't intend to pay attention to her.
Arguing was meaningless.
However, Steve stopped in his tracks.
He turned around, his gaze dark and gloomy as he looked at Kalista, emitting a cold and dangerous aura.
Kalista trembled all over under his gaze, her eyes avoiding him fearfully, unable to meet his gaze.
"Kalista, show some respect for the child."
His cold voice carried a strong warning.
If she cursed Nora, he could ignore it.
But if she repeatedly insulted the child in her womb, he couldn't just stand by.
That was his child.
He wouldn't allow anyone to insult his child!
Kalista sneered and said, "So what if I curse at him? He's just a bastard after all!"
"Oh, wait, maybe he's a mutt."
"After all, Nora has been with so many men, who knows how many men's bastards she has conceived."
"Who do you think you are? How dare you threaten me here?"
