Chapter 901 The Banquet

In the end, Norah selected a white dress-subtle, yet luxurious and elegant. After refreshing himself, Sean had Frank bring over his tailored suit.

Dressed, he looked strikingly handsome

Norah, admiring him, kissed his cheek and asked, "Sean, you look wonderful. Let's go."

That morning, Susanna set out with Phillip on a date, unconcerned about missing the Wilson family's banquet.

Before Norah and Sean departed, Calvin cautioned Norah, "Don't confront Iker and the others directly at the banquet. I fear they might retaliate."

Calvin had witnessed iker and his family's merciless nature firsthand. Their audacity in abandoning Norah, even staging a car accident to eliminate him-all to monopolize the family assets-proved their disregard

for kinship. He harbored deep concerns for his daughter's safety

Luckily, after reaching out to some of the company's senior executives, he received assurances of unwavering support should he decide to retum.

This bolstered his confidence in orchestrating a successful comeback.

Holding Norah's hand tightly, Benice voiced her worries. "I'm really afraid for you. Going back could provoke them to do something drastic."

Norah responded with a reassuring smile, "As long as you and Dad are safe, Iker poses no real threat. Wait for my good news.

Curiosity about the "surprise" Iker had in store for her lingered in Norah's mind. , dressed sharply in his suit, looked dignified and commanding. Sean

"Don't worry, Mr. and Mrs. Wilson. I will ensure Norah's safety and bring her back without harm," he

assured. Calvin gave him a reassuring pat on the shoulder. "We place our trust in you. Please, go ahead."

He needed to disguise himself and go out to reestablish contact with his old friends, taking Norah's instructions to heart and promising to remain cautious.

At Wilson Manor, the banquet was set to begin at noon. By eleven o'clock, representatives from various

clans had already started to arrive

Iker had kept the day's agenda a secret from his family, revealing only that he would make an important announcement.

Hank and Elsa welcomed the guests at the entrance.

Elsa, puzzled, leaned towards her brother. "Hank, what is Dad planning to announce? Why invite so many people? It seems like every notable family in Glophia is here"

Hank, privy to the secret, replied, "It's significant for our family, but it won't concem you. Just observe" Comforted by her brother's assurance, Elsa curbed her curiosity and awaited Norah's arrival.

A black luxury car pulled up to the entrance. Sean emerged first, then extended his hand to assist Norah. "Be careful, honey."

Gracefully, Norah stepped out in her white dress, standing poised beside him.

Upon seeing Norah, Hank's and Elsa's welcoming smiles stiffened. The awkwardness was palpable, their family had made several failed attempts on Norah's life, and she was well aware of their machinations.

Embarrassment washed over them upon seeing Norah again.

"Mr. Scott, welcome. Please, come inside. Miss Wilson, it's been a while. Please come in, Hank said, masking his discomfort with forced cordiality.

Elsa chimed in similarly, treating Norah as though she were a mere acquaintance. Norah smiled, her eyes glinting with a mix of amusement and disdain. "Miss Wilson, Mr. Wilson, indeed, it has been some time."

She ignored their astonished looks, adjusted her dress, and walked confidently into the manor with Sean.
