Ch. 377: Mr. Edwards’ Unraveled Life Chapter 377

Chapter 377

Siena didn’t back down. She wanted Kevin to see Norah's face, to make sure he understood everything.

Kevin’s face was unreadable as he approached her. Coldly, he asked, “Who let you in?”

Siena responded, “I’m your mother. Why can’t I come in?”

She felt justified, but Kevin’s thin lips were pressed tightly together, his eyes cold and filled with menace.

For the first time, Siena saw the intensity of Kevin’s anger. It sent a chill down her spine.

“Are you really going to burn down my house?” Kevin’s voice grew colder with each word.

Siena, ever straightforward, quickly adjusted. “I just wanted to teach Norah a lesson. I didn’t want to burn the house down, Kevin. How could I cause trouble for you…”

“You’re not just trying to burn down my house. You’re trying to harm Norah and the child she’s carrying!” Kevin’s tone was ice-cold, devoid of warmth. “You’re doing it so openly—do you really think I won’t do something about it?”

The coldness of his words made Siena’s heart tremble. “Kevin…”

Kevin’s chest rose and fell with heavy breaths. His fists were clenched, trembling with rage. His eyes were bloodshot. He sneered. “You still want me to act in your favor? Where’s your dignity?”

Siena tried to regain control. “Kevin, I’m your mother…”

“Don’t even say that. I’m not your son, am I?” Kevin’s voice was low and forceful. He smirked again. “If anything happened to Norah today, how would you answer for it?”

Siena’s face went pale, unable to believe what she was hearing. “Even if I’m not your biological mother, I raised you in the Edwards family. You’re my son! How did you turn into this? Norah has humbled herself for you!”

Norah stood nearby, hearing the sharpness in Kevin’s voice. She felt the tension growing. His anger was even more intense than she expected.

There was an unmistakable fury in his eyes—a desire to hurt Siena, to make her feel the pain she’d caused.

Norah grew worried, fearing that Kevin might actually do something drastic. After all, Siena was his mother, at least by name.

In the past, no matter how extreme the situation, Kevin always chose to turn a blind eye.

Just as Kevin took a step toward Siena, Norah grabbed his hand. “Kevin, this should be handled by the police…”

Kevin didn’t hear her. He shook off her hand with such force that Norah stumbled backward, almost falling.

Realizing his strength, Kevin looked back at her, momentarily surprised. His expression softened. “Norah…”

He rushed to steady her.

Norah, now a little shaken, struggled to stay on her feet. She almost lost her balance. Kevin's reaction was so intense, his emotions so raw—it was like nothing she’d seen before. His usual calm demeanor was replaced by a fierce protectiveness.

She looked up at Kevin. His concern for her was clear. But why was he so shaken by Siena?

“Are you okay?” Kevin asked gently, his hand on her waist. “Did you get hurt? You should sit down if you’re feeling unwell.”

Norah stared into his eyes, temporarily pushing aside her confusion. “I’m fine. Really.”

She turned her gaze to Siena. “Take her to the police station. Let the law handle this.”

Siena, fearing Kevin would go too far and jeopardize his future, began to panic. She knew he was the president of the Edwards family, an officer with a spotless record. Any stain on his reputation could ruin him.

Kevin, without hesitation, said, “We’ll do it your way.”

He turned to his subordinates. “Take her away!”

Siena’s panic increased. “Kevin, you can’t listen to Norah! I’m your mother! You want me to go to prison?”

Her words were sharp, filled with bitterness. She raged at Norah, blaming her for everything. “What kind of witchcraft has this woman used on you, Kevin? I won’t forgive you, Norah. If you dare to cause me trouble with Bianca, I’ll make sure you regret it…”

Siena’s rant continued, throwing every accusation and threat she could think of at Norah. But no matter how loud she screamed, she couldn’t escape being taken to the police.

Soon, the room fell silent.

Kevin glanced at the scorched floor. “We can’t stay here. I’ll take you somewhere else—somewhere more comfortable.”

“It’s fine.” Norah didn’t mind. “It’s just a little burned. We can fix it. Don’t go through the trouble of moving.”

Kevin insisted, “As long as you’re comfortable, it’s no trouble at all.”

Norah shook her head. “I’m fine. There’s no need.”

Kevin didn’t press further. He had someone repair the damaged areas, then ordered his subordinates to tighten security around Norah. No one could see her without strict checks—not even his family members.

It was all for her safety.

Still suspicious, Norah asked, “Did you release Bianca?”

Kevin turned to her, his voice calm. “Yes. What’s the issue?”

Norah’s expression changed. “You know she’s connected to the organization. Why would you let her out? It’s a slap in the face to the people who died because of her!”

Kevin’s voice remained steady. “There’s no concrete evidence yet.”

Norah’s frustration grew. “What do you mean ‘no evidence’? Do you need to see her kill someone with your own eyes? You know she poisoned me, and she’s Calvin’s daughter. Why isn’t that enough proof? Do we need to witness the crime firsthand to believe it?”

Kevin tried to calm her. “Don’t get too upset. Be careful of the baby.”

He reached for her stomach, but Norah pulled away quickly, refusing his touch.

“Why are you defending her? You’ve always done this, Kevin. You keep protecting her—what’s the difference now? She’s still harassing me!”

“Do you have proof?” Kevin asked, his voice measured.

Norah stared at him, her voice cold. “Isn’t this proof? Once Bianca’s scandal breaks, she’ll see me as her enemy. She’ll keep trying to ruin my life!”

“Then why keep doing this?” Kevin asked, his tone turning serious. “Are all the reports true? Without proof, this will have to go to court.”

Norah’s anger flared. “I am the proof! Why don’t you see it? You keep saying you love me, but you’re still prioritizing her!”

Kevin responded firmly. “No. That’s not true.”

“Then why let her out? Why are you allowing her to hurt me? If anything happens to me or the baby, it’s on you!”

Kevin’s frustration broke through. “I said I didn’t let her out to hurt you!”

The sharpness in his voice made Norah stop, her anger turning to confusion. Kevin realized his mistake and immediately softened, stepping toward her. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have raised my voice.”

But Norah was still upset, struggling against his grasp.

She winced in pain as he held her wrist too tightly. “You’re hurting me!”
