After saying that, Nora walked past him and walked out with Justin.
There was no point in staying any longer in the laboratory. They were going to interrogate Jude to find out who was giving him the orders so that they could find the mastermind hiding behind everything.
It was only when the two of them reached the entrance that Howard finally realized what Nora meant. His eyes widened in disbelief and he stared at Nora from the back in shock and astonishment.
When he did, he saw that, because the door was a little narrow and two people could not pass through it at the same time, Justin subconsciously took half a step back while Nora walked out calmly without feeling like anything was wrong.
Howard:
Since when did Justin ever give way to others?
He had always been the leader of the family, yet he was naturally giving way to someone else now.
In addition to being in love with her, it was even more so because that person was worthy of him doing so!
So, she really was Big Sister!
No wonder Justin, who had always been very protective of his own, didn't even say a word when he badmouthed Nora. On top of that, he'd even given him a seemingly half-amused look.
At that time, he'd thought that it was because Justin liked Big Sister, but he finally realized why now!
Howard felt like he had been slapped in the face, and he was distressed.
He had actually mocked Big Sister!
Was it too late for him to apologize?
With that in mind, Howard hurriedly followed after them.
On the way out, Nora kept thinking about the problem she was facing, wanting to know the specifics of the clue to the V16. After the incident just now with Jude, she couldn't quite wait anymore.
Her gait couldn't help but speed up. Justin followed closely behind her.
When the two came to the car, Justin was about to open the car door for Nora when a figure darted over, opened the car door, and said humbly, "Nora, be careful not to knock yourself against the top of the door!"
Nora:
Justin:
Howard looked at Nora ingratiatingly with a smile. "Nora, what do you think of my martial arts? Do I have any hope of entering the Quinn School of Martial Arts and becoming your disciple?"
Nora thought for a while. Suddenly, she sighed and said, "Let's get the old man to teach you instead."
She then picked up her cell phone and called Quinn.
Quinn was very loud. He hollered, "What's up,
Sleepyhead?"
Nora touched her nose, not quite used to someone calling her by a nickname. She coughed and said, "I've found you a disciple."
"... You took a disciple for me? Have I agreed to it? Yet you took them in so casually? If you want to take a disciple, then take one for yourself!" Quinn retorted.
Next to Nora, Howard felt as if his heart was in his throat when he heard Quinn.
He had met Quinn before. Back then, when he was in New York, Quinn hadn't even shown Justin any courtesy. Wasn't Nora being a little too impolite with him?
Would Quinn expel her in a fit of rage?
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Nora say calmly, "I've already told him to go to New York to look for you."
"... He'd better bring a present!"
"Okay."
"... Okay? What do you mean 'okay'? You no-good disciple, you..."
Before Quinn could finish, Nora hung up the phone and looked at Howard silently. "Quinn is old, so he's a little long-winded. Don't mind him."
Howard was already frozen on the spot like a statue.
He'd never imagined that Quinn would actually agree to it just like that! Additionally, Nora completely had the upper hand in her talks with Quinn!
While he was in a daze, Nora and Justin got into the car, left the place, and headed straight to the Hunts' family home.
Even if outsiders were tailing them, they wouldn't be able to enter the residence.
Jude was taken away by Morris and Brenda.
After returning to the family home, Howard asked, "Nora, why didn't you bring Jude back?"
Nora was puzzled. "For what? Interrogation?"
Howard frowned and replied, "Yeah, didn't you catch him to find out who was the one giving him the orders?"
"... Aren't Morris and the others more apt when it comes to interrogating prisoners?"
So, why should she bring the prisoner back and do it herself instead?
If she was that free, she might as well make up for lost sleep instead!
