Norton raised his head and looked at her. Suddenly, he laughed. "Jenna, who are you to reprimand me? Why should I listen to you?"

"What gives me the right to reprimand you? Well, I'm currently the mistress of Richards Manor. Hence, I have the right to ask you to come back with me." Jenna snorted and said firmly, "You are still part of the Richards family. Back then, Grandma was forced to drive you out of the family. You are a man. You have to face your punishment after what you have done. Look at you right now, loathing everyone in the family. Did we impose the charge upon you? You brought it upon yourself. Do you know how much Grandma wished that you could turn over a new leaf? Are you aware of how much she misses you?" Jenna really wanted to slap him across his face to make him come to his senses.

Judging from his unkempt appearance, he was having a rough time. It was apparent that he was struggling to make ends meet. However, he remained proud and haughty, refusing to admit that he was in the wrong. How narrow-minded!

Hansen and Norton were both men. Tall and handsome as well. However, they were very different in terms of mindset.

"You are saying that Grandma hopes I'm doing great and that she misses me?" Norton paused for a moment. Feeling incredulous, he wanted to laugh. "You're wrong. She only regards Hansen as her grandson whereas I'm just a nobody. I'm just the son of a mistress. Someone who isn't worthy of love and affection. Even if you guys hadn't driven me out of the family, I would have left sooner or later."

Jenna was so pissed when she heard what he said that she shook with fury.

It seemed that he had not learnt from his mistakes. He was being as pessimistic as ever.

"Norton!" Unable to hold back her anger, Jenna bellowed, "What are you thinking? Grandma's health has been deteriorating, yet all she does is nag about you. She's worried that you are struggling on your own. Back then, if Grandma didn't make that decision, you would still be in jail right now. The authorities would have blamed you for my father's death. You are a man, Norton. How can you be so dense and misunderstood Grandma's intention? If you are going to continue behaving in this manner, nobody will be able to help you anymore."

Jenna was out of breath due to anger. She wanted to find him and bring him back to the family. Now that the Richards family was in trouble and Grandma wasn't in her best shape, he should at least return to see her. However, he was really an a*shole. How could he act as if everyone had betrayed him?

D*mn, what a scoundrel!

Norton flushed scarlet. Guilt trickled through him when he saw Jenna blowing a fuse. He had never been able to refute her words. To make matters worse, he realized that he was a little afraid of her. "Norton, Grandma is currently very ill and the Richards family is facing a crisis. I have come over personally to inform you about the matter. Make up your mind by tomorrow. I will be at the Richards Group's Los Angeles' branch and I will return to A City tomorrow morning. If you decide to return with me, then come and find me. If you don't, you better not regret it in the future." Jenna warned him as she shot a glare at him. She turned around and was about to leave.

"Jenna, is Grandma really unwell?" Norton asked with concern. He just recalled what she had said. When he was still a kid, Vivian would keep him and Andrea company at night whenever they visited the Richards Group. Vivian had always taken good care of them by herself. Afraid that someone would hurt them, she always protected them well and cared about them. The thought crossed his mind and he soon came to his senses. For some inexplicable reason, he was filled with anguish when he heard the news that she had fallen ill.

He hated Vivian for choosing Jenna to marry Hansen back then. Vivian had always thought highly of Hansen and showered him with praise. Her heart swelled with pride whenever she saw Hansen and she always looked at him with affection. However, she had never looked at him in the same manner.

He knew that Hansen was far more important than him to Vivian. He loathed her for being biased, which was why he had always given her the cold shoulder. However, upon receiving the news that she was ill, he was deeply troubled. After all, he had always regarded her as someone very strong and capable. She had treated him well when he was just a kid. She was family. The thought crossed his mind and he couldn't help quivering.

Tears welled up in his eyes.

"Grandma is extremely ill and weak right now. She is practically bed-ridden. However, she still nags about you. I can tell that she is extremely worried about you." Jenna turned around and said slowly. Once she was done, she sniggered and said sardonically, "Norton, I never expected you to be so heartless. Sabrina may not be part of the family but she is far better than you. Upon receiving news that the family was in trouble, she came over right away and took our side. As for you, what were you doing? You are part of the family, yet you did nothing, pretending as if you have not received the news. You didn't even bother asking how we are doing. To be frank, I feel sorry for you."

Her gaze fell upon him. It was icy cold. A look of disappointment crossed her face.

Norton gaped in disbelief. After a while, he asked in a hurry, "What did you say? Sabrina has returned to the Richards Group?"

A faint smile touched the corners of her mouth and she chided him. "Yes, so tell me, is she better than you?"

Upon finishing her sentence, she stared at him for a while. Noticing the surprise and joy on his face, her lips held a faint smile and her eyes twinkled. She turned around and left.

At that moment, as she was turning around, relief washed over her.

She knew that Norton would definitely return with her.

Looking confident, her silhouette disappeared from his sight. For a while, Norton stood there in a daze.

soon

Sabrina, you have returned to the Richards Group. Do you still feel that you are part of the family?

His eyes began to shine with hope and his face lit up with joy. All his sorrows vanished in an instant. He thought for a while before he turned around and returned to the basement. When Jenna returned to the factory, Jersey was already waiting for her arrival.

"Jenna, you are finally here." Jersey approached her upon seeing her. He greeted her cordially but his expression was solemn.

He had been in the automobile industry for a very long time. He knew very well that the company was in deep trouble.

"Hello, Mr. Levin." Jenna smiled. The smile warmed her eyes. She was calm and composed and did not seem to be in a panic.

Mr. Levin nodded in approval. Jenna was definitely a capable woman. Despite the crisis they were facing, she remained calm and composed. It was rare to see someone like her. Sonny was also in the office. When he saw Jenna coming in, he stood up and was about to leave.

"Mr. Wilson, you may stay. I have something to discuss with you guys today." Jenna stopped him in the nick of time.

The three of them sat down at the table.

"Mr. Levin, if the factory was to start producing cars installed with the telematics system, would you be able to do it within a month?" Jenna asked right away once she sat down at the table. Telematics system? Jersey was shocked. He then sighed in exasperation.

For the time being, only the Whalen Group had succeeded in developing the high-tech system. The Richards Group had started developing the system a little later. Hence, it was still in the testing phase. It will be near impossible to finish it within a month.

He shook his head right away and sighed. "Jenna, it's not something I can achieve even if I wish to."

"I know." Jenna smiled and said confidently, "However, the good news is, the Whalen Group has agreed to share their system with us."

Jenna continued, "Mr. Wilson, you can go over to the Whalen Group tomorrow to get the system from their technician. So, I would like to ask, will you guys be able to produce the cars installed with the telematics system within a month, now that you have the Whalen Group's system?"

Jenna looked at Jersey with a solemn expression.

Jersey had a lot of experience in the automobile industry. If he said that it was possible, then the plan would definitely work out.

Jersey was surprised. The Whalen Group was actually willing to share their system with them at a critical period like this. How noble of them! The competition had always been fierce in the car industry. It was already a great blessing if they did not stab them in the back during difficult times like these. To his surprise, they were willing to help them. It was a miracle indeed!

After a while, he came to his senses. In the exuberance of joy and jubilation, he responded, "Then, it will not be a problem at all!"

"Great! A month later, we will introduce new cars into the market and start all over." Jenna was thrilled when Jersey confirmed that the plan was feasible. She continued, "One month later, I will register for a new company and we will make some arrangements to the current system. At present, with our unique design and the telematics system, I believe that we will stand a chance in the market. Let us forget our failures and start all over."

As soon as she finished her sentence, Jersey and Sonny understood at once what she planned to do. Their faces lit up with joy and Jersey couldn't help nodding in approval. He was delighted with Jenna's suggestion.

The three of them then proceeded to discuss the details. Their meeting went on throughout the afternoon and ended late at night.

The plan would change everything. One month later, the Richards Group would be able to start all over abroad and conquer the market. Although they were still kind of stuck right now back in their home country and were nowhere near discovering the truth. However, at least, they would be able to conquer the international market. In fact, they would be able to do so better than before. It was going to play a crucial role to save the Richards Group.

Puffy clouds drifted across the vast blue sky.

Jenna stood at the entrance of the airport and watched as people walked in and out of the building. Listening to the sound of traffic and the planes landing, she felt as she was in a dream.

Back then, she and Hansen poured their hearts out to one another at the airport in Los Angeles and they became closer ever since. Although many things happened afterwards, they were still madly in love with each other. Hence, that was why she really loved this place.

Standing there, she stole another glance at the place before she spun around, ready to enter the lobby.

Someone seemed to be following her. Whenever she took a step forward, the person would follow suit and as soon as she stopped, the person would come to a halt as well.

She frowned and spun around abruptly.

The person wanted to turn around and run away but he eventually stopped in his tracks.

Norton was standing behind her with a bag in his hand. He was looking pretty abashed. He looked at her timidly without any confidence, just like a child who had done something wrong and was begging for forgiveness.

Jenna almost burst out laughing. She took a long, hard look at him. Her expression was unreadable.

She then turned around and continued to walk towards the lobby.

Norton followed closely behind. It was as if he was afraid that Jenna would disappear suddenly and he would never be able to return to his family.

Over the years, he had struggled tremendously in prison and had lost his dignity. As a result, he loathed everyone in the Richards family for being so heartless.

However, when Jenna found him....

At that moment, his perception of her had changed completely.

She was now his sister-in-law, the person in charge of Richards Manor.

Aside from admiration and respect, he trusted her.

He followed her, depending on her to find his way home. She was the one who guided him when he was lost.
