Trash Husband, I'm the Top novel Chapter 210

Half a minute later, his voice faded as he took the call.

He never came back to the room after that.

Nora drifted off to sleep not long after.

She had no idea how much time had passed when a loud knock at the door startled her awake.

"Come in," she called, sitting up.

A maid stood in the doorway. "Ma’am, something’s happened to Mr. Chambers."

Nora, startled, instinctively called out the familiar name.

Before she could say anything more, the maid added, "Will is waiting for you downstairs."

A sinking feeling crept into Nora’s chest. Even Will is here?

She glanced at the clock. It was only just past seven in the morning.

"I’ll be right down."

She hurriedly changed and went downstairs.

Will was waiting in the living room, visibly anxious. As soon as he saw Nora, he jumped to his feet. "Ma’am, there’s been an incident with Mr. Chambers. You need to come with me."

Nora said nothing, her eyes cool and guarded as she stared at him.

Realizing his mistake, Will quickly corrected himself. "Ms. Cooper, I’m sorry—would you please come with me?"

Nora frowned slightly. "What happened?"

Will hesitated, then said only that it had to do with Mrs. Chambers. They needed to go to her place right away.

Nora didn’t want to go. Mrs. Chambers doted on her son like he was the center of her universe; what could possibly have gone wrong?

But she remembered—she still needed something from Daniel. She couldn’t refuse.

"Let’s go."

The Almanac of Air was her creation. Daniel claimed everything he did was for her own good, yet he gave it to Eleanor without even asking.

In the end, she simply didn’t matter much to him.

He liked Eleanor and wanted to do right by her—there was always a reason.

Will talked for a while, but Nora didn’t respond, and eventually he fell into sheepish silence.

Honestly, Mr. Chambers did get a raw deal. He only wanted to sort everything out before acting.

Mrs. Chambers didn’t live at the Chambers family estate; she had her own house, where she stayed most of the time.

The lavishly decorated villa was now in complete disarray.

Mrs. Chambers stood in the entryway, pleading with Daniel, her voice both anxious and exasperated. "I’m doing this for your own good! That Nora stole someone else’s identity—she’s a liar, a disgrace. How could she possibly be fit to have your child?"

"Monica is different. She comes from a good family. She loves you, she’d gladly give you children—why are you being so stubborn?"
