Chapter 176 With the plan in mind, Nora swiftly called the man in black.
“Before handling Harriet, find me medicine in Agral City. It’s colorless, tasteless, and can make even the most virtuous woman willingly seek pleasure,” she said.
“Okay! I'll dispatch someone immediately. Just deal with Harriet quickly,” responded the man in black icily.
He was about to end the call when Nora added, “I also need a remedy for my face. There’s a potion developed by an unknown physician in Meawood City that regenerates cells-the Z-type potion.”
“Not part of the plan against Harriet, is it?” questioned the man in
black.
Nora had her reply ready. “If my face doesn’t improve, how can | draw Harriet out?” The man in black hummed in consent and hung up the phone.
The ward fell back into silence, as if nothing had transpired.
‘owever, the fear previously etched on Nora’s face had vanished.
ow her eyes were filled with hatred, glinting with coldness.
With the medicine she had, Nora was confident that Harriet would
soon be abandoned by Delbert.
As for Vernon and Lula, they wouldn't get away with it either.
Vernon and Lula spent their days frequenting bars, avoiding Holy
Fortunately, Lula had been by Marc’s side for many years and had her own network of connections. She managed to keep their relationship a secret from Marc.
Vernon found it impossible to face Nora. Every time he saw her, he was reminded of the video footage of her with other men, which filled him with disgust. So, he chose to spend his time with Lula.
Having already crossed the line, Vernon decided to take things one step at a time. The two kept their relationship hidden from Mare and indulged in their secret romance.
“By the way, Vernon,” Lula began, “I told you before that | could help you regain your inheritance rights to your family. I've made it happen.
“I've made contact with the Morton Group, and soon you'll be invited back.” Lula pulled out a file from her bag and handed it to Vernon.
She had used all her savings, accumulated over the years by Marc’s side, to recover the scattered shares of the Morton Group. This would allow Vernon to overthrow Brad at the shareholders’ meeting.
After becoming intimate with Vernon, Lula came to a realization. Her position by Marc’s side was precarious, especially as his heart was gradually being won over by Molly.
Marc could discard her at any moment. If that happened, she would be left with nothing.
Moreover, if Marc discovered that she was the one plotting against him at Nora’s birthday party, he would surely take revenge on her.
She needed to prepare in advance, and Vernon was her best ally.

That was why she was helping him now.
When Vernon finished reading the file, his eyes widened in surprise.
Since he left the Morton family, Brad had monopolized the power and seized everything that Vernon’s father had left him. He was now the sole authority in the entire Morton Group.
The scandal involving Vernon and Nora had subsided, and Brad had grown increasingly skilled in managing the company. However, his authoritarian approach caused dissatisfaction among many directors. What Lula desired was a compliant puppet, not a king who would demand her submission.
