Escaped My Ex, Got Snatched by His Rival - Chapter 71
A furious Noah
“What nonsense! When did I?” Mister Smith put on an innocent expression. He turned to look at Noah before exclaiming, “She is lying, Mister Nelson. I am the head of this department, how can I authorize a divorce proceeding without the permission of the respective individual?” He paused and added, “As for whether this case was related to your sister, this is something that you should investigate, as I have no idea about it.”
Though Mister Smith received a bribe from Glynn that regardless of what happened, he should not let Noah find out the truth, he also received a threat from Nicolai. That man told him that Noah needed to find out what his sister did behind his back, at first, he was a bit confused about whom to support.
But now that he knew that Glynn had played him like a fool, he decided that he was going to take Nicolai’s side. That woman, how dare she lie to him and try to push him into this pit!
Since that was the case, then Glynn could not blame him either for choosing his life rather than the dollar bills that she handed. As the bribe was not comparable to his life.
He then glared at Evelyn and blamed her, “This woman must have received a bribe from someone and is trying to ruin my reputation, Mister Nelson. You should deal with such a corrupted woman accordingly.”
Noah also thought that Mister Smith, being the head of the department, would not dare to do something so risky, but before he could think any further, Evelyn announced loudly,
“I have evidence.”
Her words caused both Mister Smith and Noah to turn and look at her. Noah was looking at her with surprise while Mister Smith was glaring at her hard. However, she ignored his glare and then took out her phone. She tapped on the screen a few times and then turned it around such that Noah could see what happened that day.
It took less than ten minutes for the recording to finish, but Mister Smith felt like ten years of his life had passed. Damn this bitch! She actually recorded everything!
Mister Smith turned to look at Noah and opened his mouth to quibble, “Your sister told us that she had your permission, Mister Nelson. I dared not to ignore her, as she is the little princess of the Nelson family. I agreed because she was very confident while declaring that you were busy and——”
A sharp crunch rang in the office as Noah clenched his fingers as if he were about to throw the punch of the century. Mister Smith was worried that he was going to get beaten to a pulp, but then he saw Noah unclench his fingers.
Seeing this, Mister Smith heaved a sigh of relief, but it only lasted for a few seconds. He then heard Noah say,
“I hope you had a good time sitting in the position that you did not find suitable, Mister Smith,” he smiled at him with a touch of an uncomfortable threat. “Since you like to tell these stories, I think you will be perfect for the Morrison and Morrison law firm. I will ask my assistant to get on with the transfer proceedings.”
“Without the need for you to be present as well.”
Morrison and Morrison law firm was the city’s cheapest and most troubled law firm. Just yesterday, a lawyer was shot dead by someone in the back alley.
Mister Smith’s eyes went wide as he pleaded, “Mister Nelson, please… I dare not do this again, I won’t dare. Please forgive me! Please!”
But his pleas fell on deaf ears as Noah walked out of the office.
It took Noah less than ten minutes to arrive at his house at the furious speed he was driving his car. This was the first time he had crossed the speed limit, and he did not regret it one bit.
With his suit jacket discarded in the car, he walked inside with his black shirt and brown vest. The sleeves of his shirt were rolled as he strode inside the living room, with a goal in his head.
When Mrs. Nelson saw her son return, she smiled at him. She questioned, “You returned pretty soon, Noah. Are you here to surprise your mother?”
However, Noah ignored his mother as he climbed the stairs. When Mrs Nelson saw that her son had ignored her, she felt unsettled, as her son never ignored her. She blinked her eyes and then put down the tea cup and saucer on the table in front of her elegantly before standing up from the couch.
She made her way after her son, who headed straight to her daughter’s room.
‘Why is he going to Glynn’s room?’ Mrs Nelson thought as she chased after her son rushing.
And as soon as she stepped inside the room, she saw Noah pull Glynn off her bed ——-
SLAP! SLAP! SLAP!
Glynn was taking a nap after playing on her computer all night. She was feeling tired and did not want to go to college, as she knew that with her name being Nelson, she would pass the exams with flying colours anyway—— she decided to skip and make up for the sleep that she lost.
However, just as she finished taking a three-hour nap, Glynn suddenly felt someone pull her off the bed and slap her on the face. That too, three times!
“WHAT THE F*CK!?” Glynn exclaimed angrily, she cupped her cheeks which were slapped and were now swollen before turning to look at her brother. She couldn’t believe that her brother, who treated her like a little princess, actually slapped her.
She was still disoriented because she had just woken up, but Glynn felt wronged and angry enough to shout at Noah, “What the fck is wrong with your brother? Why did you slap me? Your sister?”
“Because my sister is one selfish little piece of work! What did you think huh, Glynn? That if you make me sign the documents without my knowledge, I will never find out. Guess what?” He snapped coldly with a touch of calmness but with Noah, the calmer he was, the angrier Noah was. “I did, and I also found out how self-obsessed, you are. Before making this decision, did you ever think about me?”
