She had been thinking that Harold would come at any time, so she didn&#8217;t dare to wear other&#8217;s clothes and just waited. She was so cold that she kept sneezing with a snotty nose.<\/p>\n<p>Susie waited till the next morning. She was almost frozen, but Harold was nowhere to be seen.<\/p>\n<p>Susie, who had waited for the entire night, finally realized that Harold would not come when she saw a hint of light in the eastern horizon.<\/p>\n<p>She angrily yelled at Harold&#8217;s name on her phone, &#8220;Harold, you bastard. You lied to me!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Susie walked to the car not far away and knocked on the window.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Who is it? Who dares to disturb my sleep?&#8221; One of Dick&#8217;s subordinates, who was sleepy, scolded impatiently.<\/p>\n<p>Susie pulled a long face and sneezed. She roared at the people inside, &#8220;It&#8217;s me!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Somebody heard Susie&#8217;s voice and quickly opened the car door, allowing Susie to enter.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Susie, finished waiting?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Susie warmed up a little after sitting in the warm car.<\/p>\n<p>These two bastards slept comfortably for the whole night, while she stood by the cold wind and waited for bastard Harold.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I can&#8217;t wait any longer. Let&#8217;s go back!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Bastard Harold, how dare you not come over.&#8217; She even deliberately injured her arm, on which a scar may leave forever.<\/p>\n<p>She touched the scar on her left arm, feeling angry.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;You are heartless, then don&#8217;t blame me.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Do you think you can get rid of the charges not coming here to be a fugitive?&#8217; In court, she would accuse him.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>In the morning, Bryson sent Audrey and Harold to the court. On the way, they went to have breakfast first.<\/p>\n<p>Feeling uncomfortable, Harold pulled the red string around his neck.<\/p>\n<p>The red string was suddenly torn off, and the pendant fell to the ground.<\/p>\n<p>Harold subconsciously bent down to pick it up.<\/p>\n<p>Before touched the pendant, somebody else picked up the pendant faster.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey held Harold&#8217;s pendant in her hand and looked at the familiar patterns on it.<\/p>\n<p>She thought about the scene when her mother put the pendant on her and Harold. The thing happened twenty years ago felt like yesterday.<\/p>\n<p>She had thought that she would never find Quentin, but she found him.<\/p>\n<p>Harold saw that Audrey was staring at his pendant and did not return. He smiled awkwardly and said, &#8220;Audrey, can you give it to me?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Audrey woke up from her memories.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Alright!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After returning the pendant to Harold, Audrey&#8217;s eyebrows twitched as she asked thoughtfully.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Harold, this pendant of yours is only half a piece, right?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Harold nodded.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Why is there only half a piece?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Harold shook his head.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t know the details. I was adopted by the Howells when I was three. I drowned once, then I forgot everything before I drowned. I only knew that I was kidnapped to Shore City where I met my adoptive parents, who saved me. I wore this pendant all the time, which I guessed was from my biological parents. I always wanted to find my biological parents, but there was no way to find them in information-blocked time then.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Susie, who was standing next to Dick, saw the refreshed Harold with burning hatred.<\/p>\n<p>He had indeed lied to her last night. His presence was the best proof.<\/p>\n<p>He lied to her! He lied to her! Susie thought.<\/p>\n<p>Harold felt her gaze and also looked in her direction, seeing the resentment in Susie&#8217;s eyes.<\/p>\n<p>Suddenly, Susie sneezed.<\/p>\n<p>Dick asked with concern, &#8220;What&#8217;s wrong?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Susie gritted her teeth and spat out a nasal voice, &#8220;I&#8217;m fine. I just caught a cold.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Harold made her suffer all of this.<\/p>\n<p>Harold pretended not seeing Susie&#8217;s gaze as he discussed with Audrey.<\/p>\n<p>As Audrey spoke to Harold, she glanced at Dick.<\/p>\n<p>As a henchman, Coby also followed Dick. He looked indifferent as ever, carrying a bag, in which should be evidence from Dick&#8217;s side.<\/p>\n<p>Although Coby looked cold, Audrey caught a flash of hatred of his glancing at Dick.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey furrowed.<\/p>\n<p>She was worried about Coby.<\/p>\n<p>He was a man of character and had known that Dick killed his wife. He would not let it go so easily.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey hoped that nothing serious would happen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-3534","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/3534","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3534"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
