Chapter 973

“This is why I said he isn’t an ordinary kid,” Nolan said as he lowered his voice. “After killing those
kidnappers with poison, there was a chance that the same thing might happen to him again if he were to
return to the Knowles.

“Although he was a kid, he knew that the one who kidnapped him was Madam Knowles, so he hid in the
slum for a month. When the police came looking, Madam Knowles would think that someone knew about
it and saved him, so she wouldn’t dare to do anything rash

Quincy was stunned. He still found it hard to believe. If everything Nolan had said was true, then Noilace
was truly a genius.

Quincy thought that Nolan’s kids were already smart enough, but he did not

expect Noilace to possess such a great mind which could develop a strategy like this at a young age. It
was only now he saw the light why Nolan was reluctant to let Daisie get so close to Nollace. If Noilace
was lucky enough to live to adulthood, perhaps he would be a tricky opponent in the future.

The next day…

Thomas was astounded on the couch when he saw the documents. His hand holding the newspaper
was shaking as he said, “W-What are these?”

Nolan was sitting in front of him. He took a sip from the cup of tea leisurely and said,” You still don’t get
it? Madam Knowles took advantage of you.” “That’s impossible!” Thomas smashed the documents on
the table. He still refused to accept it. Nolan had expected his reaction, and he added flatly, “It wasn’t
Rick who killed Simmone. After all, there’s no way Rick would kill the woman he loved.”

“What did you say?” Thomas was stunned.



Nolan put a newspaper in front of him.” Ten years ago, the woman that Rick loved jumped herself to
death. I asked Yorrick to get a newspaper of that year, and according to it, Rick knew Simmone earlier
than you. Simmone was Rick’s childhood friend. He loved Simmone, but she didn’t have any feelings for
him, and this person who jumped to her death was none other than Simmone, his first love.”





Thomas was stumped, and his hands on the newspaper were shaking. “If it were not Rick… then why
would Madam Knowles tell me that Simmie was forced to jump to her death by him?”

The corner of Nolan’s lips curled up. “That was because Madam Knowles was in love with Rick.” He took
a sip from the tea before continuing calmly. “She wanted to marry Rick, but Rick was too heartbroken
due to Simmone’s death, and he accepted the marriage his family had arranged for him.

“Elder Master Knowles took a liking to Madam Knowles, so he forced her to marry him. Madam Knowles
resents her fate. The man she loved didn’t love her, and she was forced to marry an old man. Although
the old man was very good to her, she still hated him.”

Thomas covered his aching heart with his hand and asked through gritted teeth,” Then, who killed
Simmie?”

He had been under the impression that Rick had killed Simmone for so many years, so he helped
Madam Knowles take revenge on the Knowles to avenge Simmone.

However, little did he expect that Rick was not the one who had killed Simmone. Was he wrong for
helping Madam Knowles in her revenge against the Knowles all these years?



He wanted revenge, but in the end, he took revenge on someone who had absolutely nothing to do with
Simmone’s death.

“Why would she lie to me?” Thomas seemed to have aged ten years, and his head hung low in dejection.
Nolan looked at him and asked, “Have you ever thought that maybe the murderer of Simmone is Madam
Knowles?” “No. That’s not possible.” Thomas shook his head, “Both of them are sisters. There’s no way
she would kill Simmie.” “Nothing is impossible.” Nolan chuckled.” Madam Knowles wanted to marry Rick,
but Rick only loved Simmone. Therefore, only after Simmone’s death would she have a chance.”

Nolan lowered his head to look at the cup of tea in his hand and said, “Even brothers would fight against
each other for something both of them want, let alone sisters. Once a person is blinded by their greed
and ambition, they will do everything they can to achieve their goal, even if it means harming the people
closest to them.”
