Chapter 1054: Welcome Home

Joel and Nora were recognized as siblings in the eyes of the law, but in terms of blood relations, they were actually cousins. Although this meant that Peter and Mia were already a generation apart in blood relations, they were ultimately still second cousins. Therefore, they still couldn’t be together.

He knew that his parents didn’t care about such things. If he and Mia made up their minds to be together, even if they didn’t hold the actual wedding itself, his parents would still give them their blessings.

However, he knew that Mia loved kids, and people in consanguineous marriages easily produced children with deformities.

In that case, he’d rather suppress his feelings than end up causing Mia to regret her decision in the future.

She was only fifteen; she still had many more years ahead of her. Peter didn’t want to hold her back and cause her to have to pay for her folly in her youth after she grew up.

As the group chatted, Nora answered a phone call.

The caller was from the UK. There was faint anger in the Queen’s voice as she said, “Now Black Cat, that’s not quite nice of you. How can you snatch away all of our researchers?!”

Nora answered calmly, “… We didn’t ‘snatch’ them away—they came with me of their own accord.”

“…”

The Queen was well aware of this, of course, but no way was she going to admit to it.

She scoffed and said in a stuck-up manner, “You made me a laughingstock by snatching them away! No, I won’t take this lying down. You have to compensate me for my losses!”

By saying that, she was actually indirectly giving them the green light to leave.

Of course, even if she didn’t, Nora wouldn’t lack ways and means to take the researchers home, either. However, if she did, their journey home would certainly be a lot smoother.
