“Nova, do I… put you in an awkward situation by bringing Rory up with you?
Nova forced a reassuring smile at Zona. “No, don’t, it has nothing to do with you. It is what I should face sooner or
later. But I still hope you can stop doing that and straighten Rory out, you know what I am thinking now, so please
help me persuade him to switch off me whenever possible.”
Zona, sighing with profound resignation, uttered again, “After you married Henry and I witness your true love for
Henry I dissuade him from fascinating you but… you know him well, he is not a man prone to forgo…”
Zona stopped and then fell silent.
Nova heaved heavily once more. “Well, we’ll talk about this later.”
“That’s it.” Zona finally gave a reluctant chuckle.
Now that Nova affirmed that they were not meant for each other, she had no alternative but to stop being a
matchmaker.

the merest fraction of a second, “What are you gonna do to have the shameless Kings on the run?”
A sneer stretched Nova’s lips. To be honest, she doesn’t expect such a farce after she broke free from the King
Family, Orville… the old man she used to call grandpa… What should I do about you?
Nova just thought laughing grimly.
“Nova? What are you laughing at?”
“Nothing baby, I’m not going to rush a counterattack at present.”
“Un–hum? Why? You have just said that you won’t let them escape unharmed!”
“I will, but after the Bush’s last resort, I intend to sweep them all in a flash,” replied Hester, with a mien of
calmness.
Zona was stirred by Nova’s answer, as a matter of fact, she was shocked by the brazen Bushs and Kings. “Well, I
never! ” Can we hear the end of their schemes and plots?! Shame on them! They are unworthy of noble people!
They have had Henry at their hand now, such a scumbag beneath you is not worth mentioning. But what else do
they want? Do they know to stop where it should stop?”
“Maybe I’m of great importance to them? They are unable to stand me alive.” Nova smiled vaguely.
Zona was wordless.
For her, Nova is of great significance because Nova is her intimate and for Kelly, Nova is the thorn in her flesh since
they met. But Nova isn’t Henry’s wife anymore and the place of young Mrs. King is available for her now, why Kelly
keeps bothering Nova?
Suddenly, the memory of Old Mrs. King’s birthday party flashed into her mind, Zona said instantly, “I guess I found
the problem, it must be her disgracing at Old Mrs. King’s birthday party makes her hold a grudge against you and
she wants to take over from you!”
Nova didn’t say anything but cocked her eyebrows.
Shit!! Son of bitch! Pity for my poor Nova with so many loathsome relatives,” Zona observed through her gritted

After all, she got an even loathsome father.
Zona desisted from such thoughts and opened her mouth again. “Nova, just let them go, don’t lose your health for
the sake of those assholes!”
“Well, well, I won’t, gorgeous.”
Nova knew that Zona called her not only for talking gossip but also for comforting her for fear that she was caught
off her guard by the announcement and those vicious comments.
They were friends for years so they cared about and knew each other well.
It was dark outside.
After exchanging good nights with Zona, Nova went to sleep. She was hurt actually, by Orville’s statements, but she
accepted it quickly with quiet dignity. Contrary to expectation, she was even sound asleep.
The lamp died, and another night was over. When Nova opened her eyes on the second day, some new top–
searching topics appeared on her phone’s notifications, #Henry The Caring Man#. The first sight of the hashtag
made Nova almost heave and there was a hint of irony in her eyes.
