Chapter 176 A Supernatural Incident
After a while, lunch was served. The family happily finished their meal before Noah finally went to the small building
next door.
Sarah was annoyed, “We shouldn’t have agreed to meet with him. I don’t know what the Porters are up to. Please
don’t let them be here to deceive Noah.”
After laughing, Freya asked, “What else could that ungrateful man be up to if not to deceive Uncle Noah?”
“It’s too late to deceive him now. Your uncle has seen through him!” Sarah snorted angrily.
Ashley looked at Freya.
Freya smiled and explained, “That’s not necessarily true. I think Uncle Noah is too upright.”
“Freya.” With a gentle smile, Ashley urged, “Since your uncle is not here anymore, can you tell me the whole
story?”
That question took Freya by surprise. It seemed like her aunt was highly intelligent and observant.
After thinking for a moment, she explained in a low voice.
“On the day of Grandma’s birthday banquet, I went to the land that Uncle Noah bought-
At the smaller building next to the main building of the Marshall Residence.
Ernie knelt down in front of Noah with a tear and a regretful face.
“Noah, it’s all my fault. I pushed myself into this situation.”
Reeva’s eyes were red as she placed the contract on the table.
“Noah, please save our lives. If something happens to Ernie, the Porter family will be ruined.”
Noah looked at Ernie with mixed emotions.
After doing something so despicable, Ernie should face the consequences of his actions.
However, Noah thought such consequences seemed somewhat unrealistic.
When Ernie came today, he bowed and knelt on the ground, begging for forgiveness. It was only after asking a few
questions that Noah learned the truth.
Ernie’s father and his father had been friends for a lifetime and even asked Ernie to continue the friendship
between the two families before passing away.

After deceiving the Marshalls, Ernie had dreamt of his father for several nights in a row, scolding him and saying he
wanted to bring Ernie to the underworld with him.
At first, Noah didn’t believe the other, but Ernie and Reeve were crying and seemed terrified. They said they saw
the spirit of Ernie’s father at home at night and even heard him scolding them.
They couldn’t sleep and were in a daze.
Noah felt something strange but still sneered. “You deceived us out of 30 billion, but now you don’t want it
anymore?”
Reeve wiped her tears. “Noah, no matter how much money we have, even if it’s tens of billions, hundreds of
billions, or even all the money in the world, they’re not as important as our lives. Both of us have been having
health problems recently. Let us buy back the land, and we’ll add another 1 billion as an apology.”
Meanwhile, Noah frowned as he had already read the contract several times.
It was the same purchase contract and without any flaws.
Ernie’s name and the Porter family seal were all in place and were just lacking his signature.
Once he signed it, the deal would be finalized.
Noah was torn as he could feel something was not right, but the contract was flawless.
On the one hand, the Porter couple were crying hysterically.
But Ernie had even put his reputation at stake to get that 30 billion, so how would he easily agree to take everything
back?
Could all of this happen just because of one supernatural event?
Of course, Noah didn’t believe in such things. However, when he looked at how Ernie and his wife were crying, he
felt a headache coming.
But no matter what, as long as there were no flaws in the contract, Marshall Enterprise’s crisis could be considered
resolved.
After hesitating for a few minutes, Noah signed his name the moment Ernie came over and hugged his leg.
He took away the contract with a cold expression and demanded, “I won’t give you the contract until I receive the
money.”
Noah immediately called the bank manager. After all, 30 billion was not a small amount, and the Marshalls had also
gone through several banks to take out the money back then.
Initially, Noah thought it would take a while for Ernie to process the transaction. But to his surprise, he received a
call from Marshall Enterprise’s finance department shortly after, saying that the 31 billion had been deposited in
their account.
Then, Noah checked several of the company’s bank accounts on his phone, and the strange feeling in his heart
grew stronger.
“Did you contact the bank before you came and expedite the transaction?” Noah furrowed his brow.
Ernie’s eyes were fixed on the contract in Noah’s hand while tears streamed down his face. “Noah, I did this
because I want to apologize to you. It can’t be delayed.”
Noah coldly glanced at Ernie. “After what you’ve done, you don’t deserve to call me by my name. Ernie, the
relationship between the Marshalls and the Porters ends here.”
As he spoke, he threw the contract at Ernie’s face.
Ernie grabbed the contract as if it were his lifeline.
Then, he eagerly took out his phone to take a picture and send it to the employees at Porter Group.
Noah frowned as he realized something was indeed wrong.
After sending the message, Ernic, who had been kneeling, let out a chilling laugh.
His laughter grew louder and louder.
“Hahaha. You can end our friendship all you want. Noah Marshall, you’re so stupid. You fell for my trick once, and
you’ve fallen for it again!”
Noah’s face turned cold. “What do you mean?”
“You’re so stupid. How can you compare to me?” Ernie stood up and patted his knees. “I will soon return the
humiliation I suffered today to you. By then, I wouldn’t even spare you a glance even if you kneel before me.”
After speaking, Ernie walked out with Reeve.
They no longer had the remorseful look they had when they arrived.
Once they were gone, Noah stood in the small building for a while.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNothing couldn’t be wrong with the company’s bank accounts, and the contract was flawless.
In the end, he returned to the main building with a heavy and complicated expression.
Inside the main building, the Marshalls were all sitting in the living room.
Noah looked at Sarah when he entered the room. “Mom, the land has been returned to the Porters.”
Hearing that, Sarah narrowed her eyes. “So you did make a deal with Ernie.”
Ashley smiled beside her. “Freya has guessed it right. Noah fell for it again.”
Chuckling, Freya explained, “Uncle Noah fell for it because he is honest and has good morals. Ernie has no limits
and will do anything to get what he wants. Although he’s a disgusting person, he can easily achieve. what he
wants.”
“He’s still despicable even though he can achieve what he wants. What’s the point of living like that?” Ryan
mocked.
Melissa cursed, “That b*stard Ernie, I hope he can’t-”
Ryan glanced at her, and her mouth closed with a snap.
While the bunch was talking, Noah changed several expressions and asked, “What are you talking about, Mom
Smiling, Freya looked at him. “Uncle Noah, did Ernie shamelessly beg you to sell him the land and then immediately
start acting arrogant after?”
“It was more than that. As soon as he got hold of the contract, he changed his attitude in three seconds. It’s like he
couldn’t wait to get his hands on it.” Noah’s face darkened, feeling disgusted at the mention of
Ernie.
But…
“Why did he do that? Is there something special about that land?”
Ashley explained with a smile, “Of course there is. Someone discovered gold there and then found a large deposit
of gold within a kilometer away.”
Hearing that, Noah paled. “That piece of land is nearly a thousand square kilometers!”
That land had mountainous terrain. Otherwise, the area of that land would be equivalent to a small city.
If there was a gold mine there, with such a huge concentration..
