The Ex and Her Riches

Chapter 423

Evelyn looked at Norman Nixon in shock and exclaimed, “Norman?”

Her crisp voice had turned hoarse because of the chanting.

Yet, the way she called out his name melted Norman’s heart.

Even if his mother found out the truth and beat him to death, he would still think that it was worth it.

“I have gone to the town yesterday and bought two packets of drugs as per your instructions. Both William and Ezra have been drugged by me. It’s time for you to go! They have been drugged so heavily that I think they will only wake up tomorrow at noon. By then, you will have reached the town!”

Looking at his silly and honest face, Evelyn was confused.

“Your mother said that I’m a bad and vicious woman. Aren’t you worried that I will return to hurt your mother for revenge?”

Norman looked at her in the eyes and shook his head. “You are so beautiful-looking. Even after being abused, you still have such clear, bright eyes. I believe you are a good person.”

Evelyn was stumped by his words.

What clear, bright eyes? It’s only part of my acting. Fool!

I have been making use of him. Yet, he still thinks so highly of me. Such a stupid guy.

She sighed and gave Norman a hug.

“Thank you. In times of desperation, you are the only person who treats me well. I will always remember you!”

Norman was very happy to hear that from her. “Quick! It’s time to go. Once the rain stops, your track will have been washed away.”

“All right, then. See you!”

Without further ado, Evelyn turned and ran away.

Norman stared at her retreating figure while she was leaving.

In the hut, both William and Ezra had fallen into deep sleep.
