Chapter 256 Keep Waiting Like This?
“The Porter family-” A hint of hostility flashed in Radley’s eyes. “Ernie Porter?”
Last time at Sarah’s birthday banquet, he helped Freya “return” the land to the Porter family.
He was well aware of this matter. The cause was Ernie’s jealousy toward the Marshalls, which led to a scheme that scammed the Marshalls out of three billion dollars, almost causing Marshall Enterprise to go bankrupt.
Radley slowly raised his head, his pitch-black eyes filled with a violent aura.
The next day, in the living room of the Marshall Residence, Noah shouted angrily.
“Why didn’t you tell me about Frey’s condition earlier?”
Ashley, who was beside him, tried to persuade him. “Sylvia told you. You are one to wear your emotions on your face. If you knew that Frey couldn’t wake up, you would have let emotions show. How could Mom handle the shock if she found out?”

Noah had been worried about Freya’s condition these past few days, but he had just found out that Freya wasn’t recuperating from a serious injury.
The current situation was that she couldn’t wake up at all!
“I will never let that b*stard Ernie Porter get away with this.” Noah grabbed a baseball bat from the living room and rushed out.
Infuriated, Ashley immediately directed Ryan, who was beside her, “Go stop your dad!”
Today’s events happened when Noah overheard Ryan’s phone call with Freya’s doctor.
Ryan hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Noah’s arm.
“Dad, calm down!”
“Ernie Porter has done this to your cousin, and you want me to calm down? You sure look. calm, you heartless punk!”
Ashley was so angry that she stomped her foot. “Can you speak more quietly? Mom is taking a nap upstairs. Her heart can’t handle it if she finds out!”
Noah gritted his teeth and didn’t say anything this time. Lowering his head, he stopped rushing out.
In order to stop him, Ryan ended up being kicked twice.

Noah, you think you can just go to Porter Residence with a baseball bat and beat someone up? Ernie Porter will call the police and have you arrested. He will have both witnesses and evidence!” Ashley pressed a hand on her head. “Can you not do something stupid? Frey is in the hospital with your sister and brother-in-law. If you cause trouble again, won’t it just make things worse for them?!”
Noah completely stopped in his tracks.
Ashley was extremely furious, “Go! Go ahead. We might as well cut ties with both families. Let Ernie Porter celebrate at home with champagne!”
Hearing that, Noah turned around and went upstairs.
Ashley glared at him, “Where are you going?”
“You’re right, a baseball bat is not good enough. I have something in the secret compartment of my study-”
“Noah Marshall!” Ashley shrieked, completely losing her usual gentle demeanor. Her voice was shrill when she demanded, “Get your butt down here!”
Noah looked at Ashley, then at his shocked son…
It was a little…embarrassing to show that he was afraid of his wife in front of their son.
Noah was filled with anger but also caught in a dilemma. His phone, which he had left on the table, started ringing.
Ashley answered the call.
“What? How did this happen?!”
One minute later, Ashley hung up the phone, her face filled with astonishment. “You don’t need to go.”
“What happened?” Noah frowned.
“Porter Residence was set on fire last night. Except for Ernie Porter’s two children, Ernie Porter and his wife were seriously injured in the fire and are now in critical condition in the hospital.”
Ryan also frowned. “What about the Porter family’s servants?”
Ashley looked at him with a meaningful look. “Only Ernie Porter and his wife were burned. Everyone else is safe.”
Ryan fell silent for a moment and thought for a while.

“Radley acted faster than us.”
“How can you be sure it was Radley?” Ashley thought for a moment and asked her son.
Ryan chuckled softly. “Mom, you’ve been staying in Vroria, and I lived in Caltun for a while. I know a little about Radley Monaghan.”
“Radley Monaghan? Don’t even mention his name.” Noah angrily waved his hand. “If it weren’t for him, your cousin wouldn’t-”
“What does it have to do with him?” Ashley suddenly spoke up.
Both Ryan and Noah were taken aback.
Ashley’s expression turned cold. “If it weren’t for Radley, would Ernie Porter have developed a grudge against Freya? In the end, it was you who made the mistake first by falling for Ernie Porter’s trap. It was only because Freya stood up for you that she incurred his hatred. This time, Ernie Porter must have known about Freya coming to Vroria early on and deliberately set a trap. Even if Radley didn’t take Freya out, do you think she would have stayed inside. forever? Even if she didn’t go out, that despicable Ernie Porter would have found another way.”
Her words made Noah fall silent.
Ryan furrowed his brows and pondered on the side.
“Back then, Freya was the one who helped us when Marshall Enterprise faced such a crisis. But it was also thanks to Radley’s cooperation that we obtained so much gold.”
Ashley solemnly continued, “Strictly speaking, Radley also helped the Marshalls. He may have been unfair to Freya in the past, but you can’t blame everything on him. Ultimately, it is us Marshalls who should bear the responsibility for this matter!
“If Freya doesn’t wake up, I will take care of her for the rest of my life!” Ashley clenched her fists tightly.
Noah thought for a while, frowned, and looked at Ashley, “You make sense, but why are you. taking Radley Monaghan’s side?”
Ashley’s eyes flickered. “Do you think Frey is someone who can just follow anyone? Radley took Freya away once during Mom’s birthday banquet last time, and he did it again now. I think their fate is not over yet.”
“No way!” Noah waved his hand. “I hate Radley Monaghan! He bullied Freya before!”
Ashley sneered, knowing that her husband wouldn’t listen to anything anymore.

File, Ill go to the hospital to see Frey. Ryan, if you have time, analyze this matter with
Brax.”
Ashley sighed softly. “It’s not even about anything else. Having one more person thinking of ways for Freya is also an opportunity.”
Ryan nodded thoughtfully.
Vroria First Hospital during lunchtime.
Dr. Little walked to the front of the hospital and nervously got into a black Bentley.
After getting in the car, he felt as if the temperature inside the car had dropped a few degrees.
The man in the back seat emitted an intimidating aura that made him feel like he couldn’t turn around. His neck even felt a little stiff.
“Are you saying that her condition hasn’t improved at all?” A cold voice came from the back
seat.
Dr. Little nervously clenched his fists. “We are currently using top-notch medications. This… Sir, sometimes…”
He didn’t dare to continue.
That voice sounded again. “Sometimes, what?”
Dr. Little felt the pressure from the back seat and whispered, “Sometimes, as doctors, we can only do our best and leave the rest to fate. Miss Kaufmann still has a chance to wake so please be patient…”
“You want me to keep waiting like this?” Radley’s voice was devoid of warmth.
Dr. Little was as helpless as could be. “Sir, the doctors who have been treating Miss Kaufmann recently are all top medical professors.”
