After Rebirth She Strikes Back (Simone) novel Chapter 65

Chapter 65

Not long after Simone left, the staff member received a message from the school, notifying him to come tomorrow to complete his resignation procedures.

His hand trembled, and he suddenly remembered what Simone had said. In an instant, his face turned pale, and he realized it was her doing

After taking Quinn to the hospital, Simone suddenly remembered something. She thought for a while and texted Nolan.

Simone: [Uncle Nolan, I’m

Sorry to

y to tell you that Quinn got hurt. He’s at Sogin General Hospital.]

Nolan’s reply came almost instantly.

Nolan: Is he still alive!]

Simone stared at the message, feeling speechless. She wasn’t sure if Nolan had sent it to the wrong person or if he was just being his usual self. After a moment of thought, she sent another message.

Simone: [Uncle Nolan, I still have something to take care of. Could you come here to pick up Quinn‘]

Nolan: [Are you with him?]

Simone let out a sigh of relief. At least Nolan wasn’t being completely weird again. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have known how to respond.

Before she could type anything else, however, she got another message from Nolan.

Nolan: [I’ll be there in ten minutes.]

Just then. Quinn had just finished his treatment. As the nurse helped him out, he saw Simone sitting on a chair, waiting. Seeing him come out, Simone immediately went over and took him from the nurse)

Quinn had been hurt quite a few times growing up, but he had always handled them on his own. This was the first time someone had gone out of their way to accompany him to the hospital and take care of him.

Quinn hesitated for a moment before awkwardly saying. Thanks.

Simone stared at him and said with a smile, “It’s no big deal. You’re my brother.”

Her teasing tone caught Quinn off guard, and for some reason, he felt his cars burn. Therefore, he quickly looked away.

Thinking about how he had made such a fool of himself in front of her during today’s competition, Quinn felt inexplicably irritated.

He glanced at her cautiously and asked hesitantly, “Do you think I’m useless for not winning a medal

Simone paused and smiled warmly. “Are you kidding? You were amazing. If that guy hadn’t cheated, you could have won for

Quinn looked at Simone’s smile, and suddenly, some images he thought he had long forgotten flashed through his mind. In his memories, those sharp words kept piercing his heart.

“Quinn, you’re pathetic. How could you mess up such an easy exam?”

“Quinn, you’re a disgrace to the Irwin family. You’re far worse than your father and uncle.”

“Quinn, you’re nothing but a loser. We shouldn’t have taken you home.”

“Quinn, stop coming to our school. My classmates laugh at me because you’re from Sogin Vocational High School You make me feel ashamed.”

“Can you at least do something to improve yourself? All my friends brothers are so excellent, and what did you do? All you do is play video games all day.”

Quinn stared directly at Simone and found that her gaze was innocent, showing no trace of disappointment or annoyance. The words she said seemed sincere, and when he realized this, his heart skipped a beat.

Quinn had been considered a failure by the Irwin family for years. Hearing someone tell him he was already good enough for the first time stirred. an indescribable feeling in his heart.

Just as he was about to say something, he noticed the man in the wheelchair at the door.

What are you doing here?” Quinn glanced at Nolan with a blank face, clearly surprised.

After all Nolan had never shown him any affection. Even if he was dying. Nolan wouldn’t shed a single tear. Every time he was sick, Nolan didn’t even bother to ask, let alone come to see him

He knew that the only reason

was because of Simone.

Sure enough, Nolan’s next words confirmed Quinn’s guess.

“I just came

to see if you’re still breathing” Nolan said, sparing Quinn a brief glance before turning his attention to Simone.

“Uncle Nolan,” Simone greeted politely.

The dynamic between Nolan and Quinn was so bizarre that Simone couldn’t help but question whether calling Nolan over decision.

Nolan nodded with a nonchalani hum before abruptly asking.

“Why didn’s you accept.

the money?

over had been the right

Simone immediately understood what he meant but found herself at a loss for words.

Ever since they talked on WhatsApp. Nolan had been giving her 65 thousand dollars every day. Accepting it once was fine, but Simone felt embarrassed to accept it every time, especially since they had only met a few times.

After carefully considering her words, Simone said, “Uncle Nolan, I haven’t even

even spent the last pile of money you gave me.”

“It’s just a small amount, and you still haven’t spent it all, huh? Just buy a car or go travel.” Nolan frowned, looking almost disappointed

Simone thought, 1 know Uncle Nolan is generous, but this is too much. Feeling both flattered and overwhelmed, she swallowed her surprise and said. “Well, this doesn’t seem appropriate”

“Be a good girl and just take the money.” Nolan ordered firmly

Seeing how insistent he was, Simone decided not to argue further. She planned to bring this up with Cyrus when he was home.

Meanwhile, Quinn looked at the two of them, completely clueless about what was going on.

“What money?” Quinn asked Simone curiously.

Simone was just about to explain when Nolan interrupted, “None of your business. You need to worry about your broken leg first”

Quinn was upset.

Quinn found it odd because Nolan always gave him only 600 dollars as pocket money, yet he willingly sent It was unbelievable. If not for the DNA test report, he would almost suspect he was adopted.

When Simone got home in the evening, she told Cyrus about what had happened. Cyrus, who was in the middle of drinking water, nearly spat it

out in shock

“What? Are you saying he talks to you on WhatsApp and keeps sending you money every day!” Cyrus narrowed his eyes slightly. “Has he lost his mind?”

Cyrus knew all too well how much Nolan hated the Irwin family. He couldn’t help but suspect that Nolan was scheming something.

With that thought, Cyrus’s expression turned serious. He looked at Simone and said, “Nolan is not exactly a good guy. Taking the money is fine, but don’t let your guard down. And if he ever asks you to do anything, don’t agree

“Uncle Nolan doesn’t seem like a bad person, Simone said. She could tell Nolan didn’t have the same hostility toward her as he did toward the rest of the Inwin family. Her instincts, which were always spot–on, told her he didn’t mean her any harm.

“Even so, it’s better to be cautious,” Cyrus said, rubbing Simone’s hair gently

He didn’t want to burden her with the Irwin family’s dirty secrets, but if Nolan ever dared to target Simone with ill intentions, he wouldn’t hesitate to make him pay.

Nolan had just stepped into his house when Cyrus‘ call came through.

“Hey, Cyrus,” Nolan said, his tone calm as if he already knew what was coming.

Cyrus said in a threatening voice, “Cut the crap, Nolan. Whatever you’re scheming, come at me. If you dare lay a finger on Simone, I’ll make sure you don’t live to see another day.”

The call ended abruptly leaving Nolan staring into the dark room. He suddenly laughed bitterly and muttered, “Cyrus, you lucky bastard. Why is it
