Several bodyguards had already run to try to find who had shot Noreen. Matthew stood up from his chair and looked at where he had heard the gunshot sound coming. He couldn't see anything.

After checking on Noreen, Owen said, "Mr. Huo, she's dead." She got shot straight in the heart.

Frowning, Matthew ordered, "Leave it to the police."

"Yes, sir!"

Early the next morning, the news about Noreen's death was already spread all over the Internet.

The main headlines read: "The number one star of the entertainment industry, Noreen Xia, was killed in the wilderness."

"Noreen Xia died at the age of 35."

"Noreen Xia was murdered and looked miserable before her death."

By the time Erica grabbed her phone, she also came across the news and was shocked for a moment. Then, she raised her head and looked at the man working beside her. "Noreen is dead!"

The man replied lightly, "Hmm."

'What does that mean? Did he already know it?' she wondered. "You knew it?"

"Yes." Matthew didn't hide it.

His answer sent a shiver down Erica's spine and she stammered, "Did you...kill her?"

'After all, Noreen was the one who orchestrated our sons' kidnapping and the fire that almost burned me to death. Did Matthew kill her out of revenge?'

Slamming the document on the table, he answered, "No."

She was relieved to hear that. "Then who did it?"

"Who else could it be except him?"

Erica fell silent, understanding who he was referring to.

As far as she knew, Noreen was caught by someone sent by Carlos when she tried to escape, and only afterward was she handed over to Matthew.

Erica was about to ask him how he would deal with the woman when she came across the news of Noreen's death.

"Matthew, don't do anything against Michel yet. I want to take part in it once I'm recovered."

With so many people having her back, Erica was confident that she could get rid of Michel Wang!

However, despite agreeing to her demand, Matthew still planned to take care of everything first so she could join only at the last minute to savor the victory.

It didn't take long for Matthew to find out the location that Noreen's last words referred to once he set his plan in motion.

As it happened, in the northern district of Y City, there was a mountain named Parasol Mountain, and in

you should rest for another ten or fifteen days. Let's listen to the doctor, okay?"

Adkins pulled the chair for her and added, "Yes, Mom, Colman is right. Sit down, please. Dinner will be ready soon. Just wait for it!"

Erica had been quite lazy lately. Matthew had hired a chef to cook all kinds of delicious food for her every day, but she couldn't exercise yet. So, she was almost getting fat.

Looking at the busy man in the kitchen, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Matthew tore his gaze away from her and acquiesced in their sons' behaviors.

'Why doesn't anyone believe me? I'm really fine!'

Erica patiently explained to her sons, "My dear boys, I'm really recovered. I can fight and climb. If you don't believe me, I'll take you outside so you can watch me climb a wall!"

"Mom, please stay at home. We'll practice boxing with you in half a month!" Boswell wrapped his arms around her neck and gave her a kiss on the cheek in order to comfort her.

Damian nodded, "Yes, Boswell is right. So, Mom, you have to be obedient!"

Erica was speechless.

'All right, all right. I lost! I can't resist my sons warning me so tenderly.'

Therefore, Erica stayed at home for another half a month. On the day she finally regained her freedom, she got up at six in the morning and went for a thousand and five hundred meters run with her husband and children.

In the end, Matthew was afraid that her health couldn't take it anymore, and with the help of the four children, he carried Erica on his back all the way home.
