Rose widened her eyes as she watched that Heywood almost slapped on Nora's face.
At the crucial moment, a figure leapt out of somewhere. He was as quick as a leopard, and grabbed
Heywood's wrist to stop him from hitting Nora.
Heywood turned around after being stopped and said angrily, "Who the hell… Ah!"
Then the man hit Heywood's face with a sharp fist. Others could hear Heywood's teeth clacking as his
face lurched and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Nora was right in front of him and widened her eyes in shock. This man was really strong!
Heywood broke out in a sweat on his forehead and his face was twisted in pain. He relaxed his grip on
Nora's arm and then fell straight to the ground.
The man who was pulling Rose saw this and was so angry that he grabbed a chair and tried to smash
it at the man who saved Nora. However, the man turned around and kicked him and the chair out. He
fell on the ground and the chair bruised his own forehead.
Rose, who got free, rushed forward and held Nora, "Nora, are you all right?"
"I'm okay." Nora put one hand over her chest and was still suffering from the shock.
It happened so fast that she didn't have time to react. But she could also feel how strong the man was.
If she was hit, she was afraid that she would have been broken.
"Good." Rose was more awake than she was a moment ago, "Sir, thank you for saving us. May I know
your name?"
"It is my master who asks me to save you. You are welcome." The man nodded, "My master has called
the police, and the police will come soon. You are safe now. Bye."
After saying that, he turned to leave.
"Who is your master? Could you please let us thank him in person?" Rose shouted to the man striding
down the street.
The man didn't turn around, "My master doesn't want to see anyone."
Rose and Nora saw the man walking across the road. Under a row of trees on the opposite side of the
road with only four lanes, there was a black Maybach S-class car. It stopped in the dark, like a cheetah
waiting for action.
A man's profile was faintly visible in the one-third-lowered windows.
"The master he said must be in the car." Nora stared at the car, "I want to know who it is. I, Nora, don't
want to owe anyone a favor. I don't think you do either, do you?"
"Yes." Rose smiled at her.
Nora then loosened Rose's hand and chased after the man with unsteady steps.
She almost fell when she stepped off the curb. Rose tried to help her, but she ran fast. When she got
close to the car, the car started and left.
Nora was anxious, "Wait! You guys..."
But the car did not stop and drove away. The window was slowly rolled up and the face of the man
sitting quietly in the darkness was also obscured.
But just a glance from afar in a few seconds, Nora seemed to be shocked. Her face was pale and her
eyes were wide open. She stared straight at the car. Her eyes were a little dazed and flighty, as if she
had seen a ghost.
"Nora, what's wrong with you?" Rose, who approached a little later, saw Nora, who froze.
"Rose, I ... I saw him ... he ... he was in the car." Nora spoke disjointedly and seemed weak.
"He ... who is he?" Rose was confused.
"But I'm not sure whether it's him." Nora grabbed Rose's hand and her hand was trembling, "It is too
dark in the car. I am also far away from it. I do not see him clearly. But the profile of that man is familiar
and like his. However ... that man's aura is different from his. That man is cold, while he is gentle and
warm. So, it's not necessarily him...."
"Rose, I want to know if he is Oscar or not!"
With that, Nora shook Rose off and ran after the car before Rose said anything.
But it was inconvenient because she was wearing high heels. She directly took off the high heels, ran
barefoot after the car that had driven some distance away, and was like a madman.
She seemed to be back to the fire when she was 19. At that time, she was also mad and wanted to
rush in to find him. After being stopped, she cried out his name until there were no tears and her voice
was hoarse.
"Nora!" Rose called at her back, trying to wake her up.
Nora couldn't hear Rose now. Oscar Stevens was someone she could never forget and give up.
Rose was worried about Nora. But the police car arrived.
She was one of the parties involved. The police wanted her to take a statement. She had to do it first.
Because she knew that Nora would not be far away and could not catch up with that car.
Maybe it was better to let Nora catch up with it, so that she could totally give up after making sure that
the man was not Oscar.
But if it was Oscar... what would happen?
Rose explained the situation to the police and soon finished taking a statement. Then, she got a
chauffeur, picked up their bags, and drove Nora's car to find Nora.
At this time, Nora was at the second traffic light on this road. She was sitting on the ground. Although
she was not crying, she looked terrible as if she was abandoned.
Looking at such Nora, Rose felt distressed. She asked the chauffeur to pull in at the side of the road
and wait for a moment.
She got off the car and hurried to Nora, squatting down. Nora's white legs were covered with dust and
her toes were dirty. She was not like the young lady of the Cooper family at all now.
Rose reached out and patted her back, "Nora, don't cry."
"Rose, I don't catch up to the car or confirm whether it's him." Nora flung herself into Rose's arms,
hugging Rose tightly and trying to get comfort.
"There are many people in this world who are similar. Maybe you are really wrong. And if it was him, he
would have stopped. Besides, with his job, he shouldn't be driving such an expensive car." Rose wiped
the sweat from her face, "Look, when you cry, your makeup has massed up and you're not even pretty."
"Rose, I miss him. I miss him so much." Nora said the words she had suppressed in her heart for five
years at this moment, "I've never forgotten him for one day."
Rose could feel how much Nora loved Oscar. Because she was the one who watched them be
together, hold hands and fall in love. She watched Oscar dote on Nora, and that Nora was like a happy
child and her eyes shone with happiness.
But happiness was always ephemeral. Within a year, Oscar had an accident. So far, they had been
separated for five years.
"I know that he must also be thinking of you in the other world and has never forgotten you for one
day." Rose felt sad with tears in her eyes.
