Livid Guardian's Endless Coddling

Chapter 547: Forget the past

At Wood's mansion,

Noor parked her car and entered the mansion as usual expecting to see her parents and grandparents in the backyard lawn where they drink some soothing tea before bed.

However, as soon as stepped inside she noticed an anxious maid in the drawing-room, "What happened, Aunt June? Are you alright?" She asked out of concern.

The middle-aged woman wanted to tell something but she lowered her head and shook it before going to close the large main door.

Noor was tired so she didn't think too much and entered the living hall. She saw her parents and grandparents sitting with frowns.

"Mo-" 

'Pak'

Before she could finish her word, a hand struck right across her cheek resounding loudly in the living room.

"Naira" Noah grunted coldly and quickened towards his daughters while Norah rubbed between her brows without understanding what was going on.

Holding her red swelling cheeks, Noor couldn't stop her tears from rolling down. She didn't even have an idea why her elder sister hit her.

Noah wrapped his hand around her shoulder and moved her left hand to check her cheek. As he expected her, her sensitive skin was turning red to purple. 

He was taking her towards the dining hall for an ice pack when Naira's discontent voice sounded, "Dad if you pamper her more, she will go out of hand. You should teach her a lesson by locking her few days in her bedroom. Then she won't go out to sed"

'Pak.'

Norah couldn't understand how Naira turned so vicious that she has her way by hook or crook.

Naira held her cheek and burst out at Norah, "Mom, are you crazy? I have to shoot"

'Pak'

Old madam Wood had struck her on the side of the cheeks breathing heavily, "You are right, we should have taught you the day you instigated Snow to leave her home. We let you off thinking you were young and here you are, calling your own younger sister with vulgar words."

Tears rolled down her cheeks but Naira didn't dare to utter a word because they were absolutely right. 

Blinded by jealousy looking at Snow doing well in everything she participated in, she always wanted to outdo her. Once she garnered attention due to her singing, she had noticed more than half of the comments about the girl standing next to her.

So in her weak state of mind, she had encouraged frightened Arna to leave. Even though she had realized it soon, it was already late and Arna had left the city. 

She had apologized to Arna and asked her to return but Arna didn't want to return without doing something on her own. However, from that time, there came an invisible wall between Naira and her parents.

'Jealous' is like a virus which there isn't a cure. So when her parents started correcting her, she always noticed her little sister being obedient. At some point, there used to come to a line, 'Look at Noor'

Even though she was feeling bitter, she was proud that she had a successful career while Noor used to bury herself in books to study all the time.

Now seeing Noor taking away the man she wanted and her parents proud of Noor, she twisted the whole matter without thinking about the consequences.

She lied to them as she had gone to meet Arsh and saw Noor seducing and trying to get his attention. It wasn't like the four had believed her but Naira had continued taking the family's relationship how Woods used to be close Morgans for so long years that could be ended by Noor.

They were waiting to speak to Noor without actually believing Naira but the latter couldn't hold herself at the thought of Arsh liking Noor when he sees her as a sister.

Naira felt extremely unfair and released her anger at Noor who definitely would never strike back. Noor was a girl who would let her sister take upper handed even if she has to stand aside and watch. 

Noor was an introvert who was ready to endure for other's happiness and that was the reason Noah or others always tried to protect her. They never want Noor to go through what Zara had gone through.

Noor silently sniffled while her father forcefully made her sit and held the ice pack at her cheek.

Making Naira sit, Norah turned Noor to face her and patiently asked, "Did you have dinner at Morgan mansion?" She already knew, she just wanted to confirm if she wasn't starving herself.

Noor nodded in response wiping her tears but she turned to her elder sister thinking if she had to cover for her any mistakes.

Naira was glaring at her so Noah warned her and Norah blocked Noor's view, "Look at me, we aren't not doubting you, will you tell us why you went there and what you did?"

Noor tried to look at her sister but her mother didn't let her move her head aside. So she had ti tell her mother everything from beginning to end.

Naira blurted out in a hurry, "She is lying."

Noah asked plainly, "Should I call Arsh and ask?"

Naira countered without thinking her words could make her and her sister far, "She must have seduced him. He will obviously tell what she told us."

Noor: "..."

A tear rolled down her cheek thinking Naira might be angry because Arsh didn't go out with Naira.

Norah spoke before Noah, "Let's accept what you said is the truth. What is your problem if Noor seduced Arsh? Are you really worried about breaking family ties?"

Old madam Wood glanced at her husband after discerning what was going on. Noah wasn't stupid so he realized it too, "Don't you think what you did nine years back was worse than what you are alleging on Noor?"

Norah shook her head, "Let's forget the past." She didn't want to bring up the same thing again and again. 

Noor, who understood her sister's jealousy, quickly revealed the truth, "Sister Naira, we aren't dating. You can call and ask. I really went there to talk about the next vacation. I am not even going alone with Young Master. Except for grandfather and grandmother Morgan, all are going this time. If your schedule is free, you can also join us."

However her sweet words didn't reach Naira's heart, "I don't want to go and I don't want you to go either. Stop making yourself as part of their family." She hissed bitterly.

Noor bit her lips wobbled her head in acceptance if that could make her sister happy.
