The True Heiress's Return

Cody was determined to meet Norman, so he decided to wait outside the side ball. Unexpectedly, instead of meeting Norman, he saw Shakira coming out leisurely from inside. Cody got furious at once. He immediately pointed at Shakira and scolded her. Yvette was a little surprised.

Last night, after landing, Berry sent her a bunch of voice messages, so she knew Shakira was in Silverwave Bay. She just didn't expect Shakira to come to Silverwave Mountain. Yvette thought, 'Could it be that Shakira has been really unlucky lately and came to pray for some help? With this thought, Yvette couldn't help but smile gloatingly. Seeing the two of them, Shakira tutted in disdain. What a small world. She smirked mockingly and said, "I didn't know that Silverwave Church belongs to you, Mr. Nelson." Cody didn't know what to say.

Shakira ignored Cody's angry glare and sat down in a small pavilion by the garden wall. There were plum trees around, with red blossoms covered in white snow. The mixed fragrance of plums and sandalwood calmed her down. Cody's face darkened after he got mocked. He turned to the young man who was sweeping snow in the yard and ordered, "What are you waiting for? Drive away those unrelated people in case they'd bother Master Norman!" The young man paused and then calmly said, "This lady is a guest of Master Norman, Mr. Nelson. Please stay quiet."

Cody was stunned.

His eyes widened in disbelief. He thought, 'Shakira is Master Norman's guest? Our Nelson family has donated nearly 300 thousand dollars to the church over the years, yet as the head of the family, I can't even meet Mr. Bethune in person. 'But Shakira is Master Norman's guest?'

The other people waiting on either side couldn't stand it anymore and started to criticize Cody, "That young lady has been quiet, while you keep yelling and acting rudely.

"You think you can act unreasonably just because you're rich? Aren't you ashamed of blaming others?"

"Exactly. Everyone is equal here. What makes you so arrogant?"

Cody couldn't stand the sarcasm any longer. He angrily stormed over to the pavilion where Shakira was.

Before Cody could do anything, the young man who was sweeping the snow suddenly moved. He reached Shakira first. He turned slightly to take a defensive stance, and his expression was still calm.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Feeling frustrated and upset, Cody could only point at Shakira and shout, "You have the nerve to meet Master Norman? You ruthless and scheming bastard! Aren't you afraid of staining this divine place and getting karma?"

Hearing this, Shakira stayed silent. She just raised her cold eyes and glanced at Yvette, who was following behind Cody and waiting to see her embarrass herself with a smile.

Suddenly, Shakira gave a sly smile and spoke in a deep voice, "Indeed, there is someone here who has done many bad thing and deserves retribution."

Yvette's heart unexpectedly skipped a beat when she heard that. She instinctively looked at Shakira. Seeing her sly smile, Yvette was scared and quickly hid behind Cody. Her heart was pounding uneasily. She thought, 'What does Shakira mean by that? Has she really known something?'

Cody's expression turned sullen and his eyes turned cold. His finger pointing at Shakira shook uncontrollably. He thought, 'If it weren't for that young man, I would have taught this insolent brat a lesson!" Suddenly, he thought of something and gave a sneer. "Oh, I was just wondering how someone like you could meet Master Norman. So this is your way.

"You seduced Yvette's boyfriend at school, and now you even lay hands on a church worker. Shakira, you're really-

"Bless you," a distant voice interrupted Cody just as he was about to say some bad words out of anger.

Cody shivered and paused as if struck by something.

Everyone turned around at once. Norman had already walked out of the side hall in his red robe. Beneath his white brows were deep, kind eyes, looking gentle yet firm. Norman said, "Words can harm, Mr. Cody. Please choose them wisely.

It was only then doing Cody realized that he almost said something wrong, and his expression quickly changed.

Then Cody finally noticed Walter coming out from behind Norman. Meeting Walter's cold eyes, Cody shivered. He suddenly understood why Shakira was here.

Cody finally realized that he almost made an unforgivable mistake.

He stammered, "Master Norman, it was all a misunderstanding..

Then he apologized repeatedly to the church worker, "I'm really sorry for offending you, sir."

The church worker said seriously, "The person you truly owe an apology to is this lady, Mr. Cody."

Cody's expression froze, but in the end, he had no choice but to apologize to Shakira.

Shakira didn't respond at all.

Cody discreetly clenched his fist. He still remembered why he was here, so he quickly said, "Master Norman, eighteen years ago, I came to seek guidance before my wife went into labor.

"It was you who helped us out, allowing my family to live in peace and harmony. She..."

Cody glanced at Shakira and reluctantly said, "She's the daughter my wife gave birth to back then. After she was born, she and our adopted daughter were accidentally switched at the hospital, and we just found her this year.

"But since then, our family has faced endless troubles. I hope you can help us find a solution, Master Norman!"

His last words carried a tone of urgent pleading.

Norman wasn't surprised to hear that. He shook his head and sighed. "Whether it's a blessing or a curse, it's all destiny. Mr. Nelson, if you want to fix things, don't be stubborn. Restore everything to how it was, and the problem can be solved."

Cody was slightly taken aback. After he heard what Norman said, his expression instantly became complicated and sullen. Yvette's heart skipped a beat. Then she put on a pitiful expression and politely explained to Norman, "Master Norman, it's not that my dad doesn't want things to go back to how they were, it's my sister... He doesn't have a say in it!"

She was actually clenching her fists. She thought, 'This damn idiot suggests Cody should take Shakira back? I'll never allow

that!'

Norman pondered for a while and slowly spoke, "Your fate is predetermined. If you wish to change it, you need to do more good deeds to accumulate merit."

VIDIL, NOV

Yvette was shocked.

Norman's gaze fell upon her, and Yvette could barely see his eyes, yet the felt as if he was effortryde avent her as if no disguise could deceive him. He scrutinized her very and throughly

That feeling of being completely exposed with nowhere to hide urged over her for a Boot

Yvette bit her lip hard, and her face turned pale. She didn't dare to say another word Fortunately, Norman didn't continue talking. Instead, he turned to Walter and nodded shghely

He said, "Just follow your heart, Mr. Lopez. You'll get your answer soon?

Walter nodded seriously. "Thank you, Master Norman. I will remember your words

Norman said, "Bless you."

Norman turned slightly, paused briefly when he faced Shakira, and then turned back into the hall

Shakira was a bit surprised.

She felt that Norman smiled at her just now,

While she was thinking, Walter came over, held her slightly cold hands, and warmed them firmly. He said, "Let's go

Shakira said, "Okay."

Before leaving, Walter shot Cody a cool glance and casually said, "I heard Sean announce that Yonder Digital will take a cu of every project of Nelson Group." Cody's heart skipped a beat. The next moment, Walter said word by word, "Likewise, Lopez Group will also do the same. and we won't hold back anything to win!" Walter thought, 'He hurt my woman. How dare he wish for peace and safety?

'I won't allow that!'

Hearing Walter's words, Shakira couldn't help but chuckle softly.

She thought, "That's so Walter. He takes revenge on the spot.

Watching the two leave affectionately, Cody flushed in anger.

Yvette held Cody and glared at Shakira's back. She gritted her teeth with great jealousy.

By then, the rest of the Nelson family, who had been waiting for them to return, came over. Seeing them looking so downcast, they were shocked.

Selena asked, "Weren't you supposed to meet Master Norman? What happened? Did you meet him?*
