Chapter 709


    "Aren''t you going to listen to me?" General Delia frowned and asked in a serious tone.


    From her observation, Jenna roughly understood how General Delia felt at that moment, seeing that


    Sabrina did not leave as she was obviously afraid that General Delia would hurt Norton. Hence,


    Jenna stepped forward and took Sabrina''s hand while smiling. "Sabrina, let''s go downstairs and


    wait for your father. Grandma''s memorial service is about to begin. This is thest day of the


    funeral, and since we have to care for her dignity, we can''t miss the time. I''ll arrange a nurse to take


    care of Norton."


    As she spoke, she winked at Sabrina, motioning her toe out with her.


    Sabrina was guided out by Jenna, but she was still a little anxious. Her father didn''t really like


    Norton and was afraid that he would make things difficult for him because of personal feelings.


    "Silly girl, what are you thinking about?” Jenna poked Sabrina with her hand and asked with a warm


    smile.


    There was worry in Sabrina''s bright eyes, and she didn''t bother to smile back at Jenna.


    "Sillyss, you''re really going to be the daughter-inw of the Richards family. You can''t


    escape even if you want to." Jenna smiled wittily and tapped her little nose, teasing her with strong


    laughter.


    "Jenna, what are you talking about?" Sabrina blushed, but there was still worry in her eyes as she


    pouted.


    "Sabrina, tell me honestly now, can you be sure that you still love Norton?" Jenna tilted her head


    and looked at her up and down, coaxing her with a smile.


    Sabrina''s face blushed even more, and she mumbled, "Jenna, don''t tease me. It''s bothersome."


    Jenna smiled and looked at her, saying, "I am not making fun of you. Look at you, acting like a poor


    little wife who has suffered a lot. Will it be a marriage with hatred or resentment?"


    Sabrina took Jenna''s hand and said very seriously, "Jenna, tell me the truth. Will my father make


    things difficult for Norton? I dare not leave as he was seriously injured from saving me."


    Jenna snorted, put her hands behind her while slightly raising her head, and deliberately answered


    very earnestly, "This is possible, since your father doesn''t like Norton at all, and there are no good


    feelings at all."


    After stating this, Sabrina became even more anxious. Beads of sweat appeared on the tip of her


    nose, and she didn''t dare to move.


    Jenna did not dare to tease her anymore. She squished her cheeks and asked, "Tell me, are you


    still in love with Norton now? If you tell me, then I will think of a way for you."


    Sabrina was too worried about Norton. She blushed and nodded in acknowledgment.


    Jennaughed out loud and took Sabrina''s arm.


    "Silly girl, let''s go. Don''t worry. Your father will definitely agree to your marriage this time. This time,


    the wedding will be held at Richards Manor." Jenna''s tone was rxed and full of confidence.


    Sabrina was stunned for a moment and then she understood. Confused, she asked, "Jenna, you''re


    not joking, right? My father is well-known for being stubborn."


    Jenna smiled mysteriously andforted her. "Don''t worry, this time it will definitely be an exception


    and he will definitely agree to it. Just believe what I have said. To put it short, we are sure to be in-


    laws."


    Sabrina blinked with her big eyes, which were as bright as stars.


    She believed everything Jenna said.


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    After Jenna took Sabrina away, the situation in the ward suddenly quietened down.


    Even though General Delia''s expression had be a lot more amiable, his eyes were firmly fixed


    on Norton and this made his hair stand on end. Norton was incredibly nervous.


    "You brat. How bold of you to hit on my daughter. Don''t think that I''ll thank you after taking the shot


    for my daughter. I won''t fall for this kind of trick," General Delia said preemptively as he took a step


    forward.


    "Uncle Delia." Norton''s face darkened. His voice was somewhat hollow, and the redness on his face


    instantly subsided before turning as pale as a sheet. "I am sincerely loyal to Sabrina. I''m not


    performing any tricks. I may have done a lot of wrong things in the past, but please believe that I will


    never do it again. I am wholeheartedly in love with her, and will never make her sad again. Please


    trust my sincerity."


    When Norton finished speaking, he was exhausted and began to pant.


    "Is that so?" General Delia stared at him. After pacing around the room, he came over to keep a


    close eye on him, causing Norton''s hair on his body to stand on end. "If you love my daughter so


    much, then what''s going on with Carme Newton?"


    His voice was very frosty, and his facial expression was icy.


    Norton was shocked for a moment when he heard this. In the next instant, he understood what was


    going on, and joy flowed out of his chest. If General Delia asked him about Carme, then it meant


    that he wouldn''t object to his love for Sabrina. He thought about it for a moment before saying,


    "Uncle Delia, my mother was the one who wanted Carme to remain for a few days. Furthermore,


    Grandma happened to have passed on. So, she stayed behind to mourn her death. This isn''t what I


    meant."


    "So, your mother prefers you to marry Carme Newton, doesn''t she?" General Delia''s voice turned


    even colder. "Are you going to listen to her?"


    When Norton heard this, he got too excited and hurriedly exined, "It''s not like this. Uncle Delia,


    please believe me. I''m the one in charge of my life decisions. Sabrina is the only person I love, and


    I''ll only marry her. As for Carme, since Grandma passed away and she''s here to attend the


    memorial service, I have no reason to chase her away. But after the funeral, I''ll call my mother to


    send Carme away. Please believe me."


    He said with great strain. After that, he struggled to call Maria to show his sincerity. However, the


    wound was too deep. He cried out in pain as soon as he turned over.


    "Well, there''s no hurry. Men should not be afraid to love or hate. Since you love Sabrina, you should


    behave like a man and give her happiness, instead of cheating on her. I''m going to tell you this. If


    you hadn''t taken a shot for Sabrina, then it''s useless no matter how you pester my daughter. But


    since I''ve seen it with my own eyes, I was moved." As he spoke, General Delia bowed slightly and


    looked at him. "How is it? Is the wound still serious?"


    Norton''s heart thumped when he heard the concern in General Delia''s tone. For a moment, he was


    so excited that happiness seemed to have arrived too quickly. It appeared that he had agreed to


    their marriage.


    "Thank you, Uncle Delia. I''m fine," Norton replied while shaking his head.


    General Delia stared at him again as his lips curled into a yful smile.


    "Kid, don''t think everything will be fine just because you took that shot for Sabrina. What I want to


    see is your action and behaviour, understand?" General Delia gave him a dissatisfied look, looked


    up with a smile, and stood up straight.


    "Rest assured, Uncle Delia. I''ll definitely prove it to you and satisfy your conditions once I''ve


    recovered." Norton''s cheeks were flushed with excitement. He stammered incoherently.


    "Good." General Delia nced at him again and grunted. He continued indifferently. "Then, have a


    good rest." With that said, he turned around and walked out.


    Norton had been extremely nervous. After he finished dealing with General Delia, he rxed. A


    great joy rose from the bottom of his heart. He exhaled and turned his head to the side, got too


    excited and fainted.
