Alan parked the car steadily in the courtyard of the villa and found that there was such a beautiful view
of the sea.
"How come I didn't know you have a house here?" Alan helped Nora out of the car, "It's quite nice
here."
"No matter how nice it is, I won't give it to you." Nora actually rarely came here.
This was the place where she and Oscar used to date. He was burned to death in this villa.
It used to be a ruin for a long time. Then, Nora invested in the reconstruction and restored it according
to the previous look. Even the interior decoration and furnishings were made according to her and
Oscar's preferences.
When she looked at those familiar scenes and things, she would feel that Oscar did not leave her.
She thought that he died here, and he would miss the place where he got along with her most. She
thought that if a man had a soul, he would come back here to find her.
When she missed him, she came here and lay in the sofa, imagining that he would come to her.
She would sometimes meet him in her dreams. But how sweet and happy they were in dreams, how
cruel and sad the reality was.
She always woke up in tears, helpless and sad. She wanted to stay in her dreams and never wake up,
not to face the pain of losing her love.
"I didn't want your villa." Alan rubbed his nose and said the love story, "All I want is you. I'm satisfied
with you, just like having the whole world."
"Fool." Nora laughed at his stubbornness.
Alan knew that he might not get her and her heart for the rest of his life, but still wanted to try.
It was just like her. She knew that the person she loved was no longer alive, but still persistently waited
and tormented herself.
They both valued love. So, they were always the ones who were hurt.
"I believe that fortune favors fools." Alan knew what Nora meant, but didn't want to give up.
"Wait for me here. I'll come out after I finish my business." Nora then changed the topic and turned
around and walked to the villa.
Alan looked at her slender figure. How beautiful her long straight legs were!
The pink on her hand lit up the coldness of this winter.
Alan did not go into the car, but wrapped his coat tightly, leaned against the side of the car, and
carefully looked at the villa.
Nora went inside and asked the nanny to make a pot of hot tea, send it to the outdoor sofa outside the
villa, and invite Alan to rest here.
"Where's Lillian?" Nora asked the nanny.
"Ms. Lillian said she was tired and went to the guest room to rest." The nanny pointed to the right of the
first floor.
"Make the tea and go get her." Nora put her bag on the sofa and sat down.
The nanny brought the hot tea out and invited Alan over as Nora said, so that he could enjoy the view
and warm himself up with some hot tea.
Luckily, it was a nice day. It was a little sunny and not too cold.
Lillian was led to the living room by the nanny. Her eyes were wet the moment she saw Nora, "Ms.
Nora, I..."
"Sit down and have a sip of tea first." Nora poured a cup of tea into a glass.
Lillian picked up the cup of tea and took several sips. After she finished it, she said, "I want to get back
at Nathan. Please help me."
"Have you thought it over?" Nora held the cup with her white fingertips, looked up at Lillian whose eyes
were full of hatred. It seemed that she was firmer this time.
"Yes." Lillian nodded heavily, "I've never known what I should do as clearly as I do today."
Nora took two sips of tea and put down her cup, "May I know why you changed your mind?"
Once Nora asked this question, Lillian's face turned pale. She grabbed the fabric of her dress and was
like the leaves in the wind trembling vaguely.
"It is okay if you don't want to say it. Just forget it." seeing her like this, Nora did not force her.
"Nathan hasn't even thought about letting me go." Lillian opened her eyes wide to keep the tears in her
eyes from falling down, "I've been very low key and avoided him. But he still found me and let the men
who didn't succeed last time continue what they hadn't done."
When she said this, Lillian obviously choked. She could not hold back her tears and let it fall down. She
raised her hand and wiped it casually, took a deep breath, and continued.
"He also took pictures of me being raped, then had someone go to my hometown and post them near
my house. My parents saw it and were so angry that one was sick and hospitalized, and the other was
in tears. They could not forgive me, saying that I was cheap and disgraceful, and would break off the
relationship with me...."
"I have nothing left now. I am not afraid of him at all! I will pull this scum to hell even if I have to fight for
my life. He was not afraid of me at all and treated what I said as a joke. He even said that I was crazy.
He thought that I was not capable of fighting with him.
Ms. Nora, I really regret my decision at that time. If I had listened to you last time and taken legal action
against him, it would not have been like this. I am desperate and can only ask you for help. I want this
scum to die. Please tell me what I have to do to let him get his comeuppance. I'll do whatever you say."
Listening to Lillian's experience, Nora sympathized and very disliked Nathan's arrogance.
The man was too hateful. He had to be taken a lesson once to learn that there was a price to pay for
doing wrong.
"Cry if you want to." Nora pushed the tissues on the coffee table in front of her, "There are many ways.
But you have to know that you will take great risk. Do you think you can afford it? By then the whole
country will be concerned about this matter. Words against you may appear on the Internet and the
media. It will be harsh and severe. Even his lawyer will be aggressive against you in court, leaving you
without dignity. Have you thought about that?"
Lillian pulled up a tissue and wiped the tears on her face, her eyes firm, "He even posted the kind of
pictures of me all over the streets of my hometown, and where I used to work and go to school. I've
been stripped naked and put in public. Is there anything more embarrassing than this?"
"I have only one thing on my mind right now. I want Nathan to die! He's not human. He doesn't deserve
to live."
Seeing that Lillian was indeed firm, Nora then slowly said, "What you have to do now is to go to the
police station to sue Nathan for raping you and abusing you with other men. The police will file a case
after investigating, so that it can enter the judicial process."
"But it's been a long time. I have no evidence. Will the police listen to me?" Lillian was not ignorant at
all.
"I dare you to do so only when there is evidence." Nora smiled lightly, which gave light and hope to
Lillian who was in the dark.
