Chapter 371:
Afterward, Norah's parents suffered a tragic car accident and passed away while searching for their daughter.
Mindy lamented the unpredictable nature of life.
The kind ones always leave the world too soon.
Calvin was a genuinely kind soul. His early years were filled with joy, yet his later years brought considerable
hardship. Eventually, he passed away in a car crash. His story was one of tragedy.
Iker impatiently said, “It’s all burned up now. There's nothing left to see. Let's get out of here.”
He was eager to leave Calvin's villa, worried that Norah might uncover something suspicious.
He suggested, “How about we take a walk outside?” With that, he headed for the exit. Just then, he caught
Norah's faint voice.
“Uncle Iker, are you worried | might discover you've taken something from my parents?”

Mindy was perplexed and asked, “Norah, what are you implying? What could your uncle possibly have taken
from your parents?”
Elsa and Hank were visibly upset.
Elsa scoffed, “Norah, you're not the only one with valuables. Exactly what do you think my father has taken?”
Hank demanded, “Unless you can specify, you owe him an apology.”

Their ignorance of the truth fueled their bold assertions. A bead of sweat slid down Iker’s forehead, but he
maintained his usual demeanor.
“Norah, accusinglike this is wrong. What have | supposedly taken? Where would | have taken it from? It's not
right to make such baseless accusations against your family.”
Norah headed straight for the living room.
“You practically kickedout the moment | stepped in, and | noticed many things in the living room were
missing. Is there something you're trying to hide?” She indicated the coffee table’s corner, where a noticeable
layer of dust hinted at a missing object.
“What used to be placed here? And what about the antiques that were on that shelf? Did they vanish on their
own?” Her voice resonated through the living room, reaching the ears of everyone present.
Mindy and Iker had previously visited the villa to collect items, fully aware of the truth.
Everything in the villa was fair game. Calvin and his wife were gone, so they didn’t need any of it. That was why
Mindy and Iker took all the valuable things for themselves.
Norah speculated about the original locations of certain items, trying to deduce what was missing.
“Uncle Iker, are you concerned I'll uncover these items and ask for their return?”
She smirked slightly.
“Your concern is valid. | insist you return my parents’ possessions.”

After a brief pause, she added, “Gilda and Chayce are quite familiar with my parents’ villa. I'll cross-reference
everything to identify what's missing.”
She was resolute in matters concerning her parents.
“It seems we can call it a day now. Now that you've got sfree time, you might as well start tallying and
returning what you've taken.”
Iker and Mindy exchanged uneasy glances.
Elsa interjected, “Norah, your parents no longer need these items. My parents thought it would be wasteful to
leave them unused, so they took them for temporary use. It’s unfair to accuse them of theft.”
“I didn’t accuse them of theft.”
Norah looked at her innocently.
“I'm just being honest. Since they only borrowed them, it’s best to return them. Please return the borrowed
things.”
She emphasized the word “borrowed” with an innocent expression, which made Elsa furious.
