The three of them turned <b>pale </b>and looked at him.
Jill was shocked. He picked up the letter and opened it. It <b>was </b>indeed a resignation letter. It turned out that Norman came back tonight to deliver the resignation letter.
Jill had <b>never </b>expected to receive such a resignation letter. He <b>was </bpletely stunned <b>and </b>looked at Alex in a daze.
Alex didn’t expect Norman to resign either. In their <b>n</b>, he would be promoted after the new year and be on the same level as Jill. In the future, he would take over Alex’s position,
Jill <b>had </b>always been calm and rational “Why?” He <b>had </b>to know the reason.
“Nonman Jill turned his head. Is it because of Lorenzo?”
“Of course <b>not</b>.” Norman answered. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have stayed in the Patton <b>family </b>and been nurtured and arranged by Jill and Alex.
“I’m not interested in the position. Grandpa, you’re still healthy. You won’t retire for the time being. When you retire, Dad can take over your position. I’m not a must to you And I have something I particrly want to do” With that, he saluted them smartly and turned to <b>leave</b>.
“Norman, where are you going? Come back!” Jill called out a few times. The only response he got was the sound of the car driving away. “Dad, how can I. Jill was helpless.
Alex gave him a intive look and said, “Now look what you’ve done?
Alex had experienced too many wars and life–and–death situations in his life. He especially yearned for the joy of family
He thought, ‘It wasn’t easy for Norman toe and have a meal with me, and Lorenzo also came. In the end, as soon as he entered, he turned around and left. How heavy is his resentment
My good grandson<b>, </b>Norman, whom I had painstakingly nurtured for more than twenty years, had resigned
This feeling was <b>like </b>grooming the heir of his <b>family</b>. When it was his turn to do it, he suddenly <b>quit</b><b>. </b>How could he not be angry!
“Dad… Don’t look at me like that. Im a victim too Jill said.
Back then, he waspletely <b>used </b>and passive towards the grudge between Norman’s mother and <b>Lorenzo’s </b>mother,
Alex was speechless. Alright, not only my grandsons, but my <b>son </b>still needs my protection; he thought.
Alex looked at Dn, Jill also looked <b>at </b>him.
Dn silently lowered his head and continued to <b>eat</b>.
“Norman was joking. He woulde back. I would never say such words, Dn thought.
<b>Norman </b>and Lorenzo were like Alex, they all wouldn’t change their minds easily.
Alex and Jill were speechless.
Norman drove out of the old residence and called Alfred. “Christian must have gone to Kentside Garden to beg ke to save Lea. Alfred, what the hell is going on?”
Christian’s reaction nude Norman suspect that the <b>situation </b>had gotten out of control.
“It’s not convenient to talk on the phone. I’m going to Kentside Garden now,<b>” </b>Alfred answered <b>on </b>the phone.
After hanging up, Norman turned the steering wheel and headed towards <b>Kentside </b>Garden,

Sensing the <b>cold </b>atmosphere inside, he couldn’t help but <b>tug </b><b>at </b>thepels of his jacket.
“There won’t be any idents, right?” Norman was asking about Lea.
Alfred nodded. His eyes were resolute. He thought. Even if the sky copses, I <b>have </b>to ensure that Lea is unharmed.
Only then did <b>Norman </b>nod in relief. “I’ve already handed in my resignation letter to my father. I’ll be leaving the country <b>soon</b>.”
“If you need anything, just contact Eddie. He will arrange it,” Alfred said.
“Okay”
The two of them exchanged a few words. Norman <b>sat </b>in the car for <b>a </b>while before leaving. This was the farewell between the two.
Alfred then drove into Kentside Garden.
In the hall, Christian <b>and </b>ke had been talking for a while. Milton was <b>also </b>there.
“ke, no matter what, <b>please </b>arrange for Lea to enter a project and save her life. I’m begging you.” Christian said.
Previously, because ke did <b>not </b>agree <b>with </b>Alfred and Lea’s rtionship, Christian looked down on <b>him</b>. But now, Christian was begging him withou
any dignity.
ke could not bear to see him like this
“Christian, <b>don’t </b>be like this. How can I watch Leadier ke said.
He did not expect things to develop to this point, but he also knew that Lea would not die. This was not the original intention behind it.
“So you agree!” Christian asked.
ke hesitated
“Christian,” Milion interrupted them and said, “I’ve arranged everything. As long as Lea agrees, I can bring her out and take good care of her for the rest of her life. Let her be free and happy.”
<b>Christian </b>turned around and looked at Milton in a daze. At this moment, the only thing he thought about was that Lea could live. Leuing her be free and happy was his best <b>wish</b>. But he quickly realized the conditions for doing so.
Without waiting for him to ask the question in his heart, Milton said directly, “Christian, go and persuade Lea, <b>I’m </b>ready to pick her up at any time.” Mikon didn’t even let <b>him </b>ask if he had already met Lea Milton couldn’t let him know <b>that </b>Lea had already rejected him.
“Oh, okay. Then I’ll try Christian said.
Things were already much better than what he had hoped for. He had nothing else to ask, even though he knew Milton’s intentions.
However, he had to pay a price for letting Lea live.
“Then I’ll go see Lea <b>first </b>Christian said.
“Christian, I’ll send <b>you </b>off, Milton said and looked at ke. Their eyes met. ke did not stop him, nor could he
<b>ke </b>knew Milton’s personality very well. In a way, ke was the one who made Milton like <b>this</b><b>. </b>
<b>Since </b>Milion wanted Lea so badly, so be it. He devoted so much to the Andrews Group but ultimately had to hand over the group to another sessor. This can be considered aspensation for him, ke thought
Milton had just helped Christian to the door when he bumped into Alfred.
Under the dim corridor lights, Alfred was wearing a ck silk shirt with an oppressive aura.
Seeing that Christian was about to leave<b>, </b><b>Alfred </b>said, “Grandpa Christian, I’ll send you
When ke heard the <b>word </b>“grandpa“, he gritted his teeth.
Alfred was announcing his rtionship with Lea. At this point, he thought that Lea was still his girlfriend, the woman he was going to marry in the future

Christian looked at him with red eyes and aplicated and disappointed expression.
In the past month, Alfred had not done anything other than take care of Christian. Lea was already on the verge of death. The <b>so</b>–called rtionship between them <b>was </b>no longer worth mentioning.
With ke’s request, there was nothing Alfred could do.
*No need. Milton will send me to meet Lea. Christian rejected him.
Alfred’s <b>hand </b>that was about to help Christian froze in midair. He felt disappointed andplicated. Then, he looked up at
Milton
Milton looked straight at him. The challenge <b>and </b>ambition in his eyes were undisguised.
To Alfred and Lea, Milton had never hidden his desires.
