Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 150:

Corrin felt a surge of excitement at Sharon’s revelation. Norah held two-thirds of the Carter family’s wealth, and if she allowed a portion of it to be redirected to the Wilson family, it could significantly contribute to their growth.

“Samira and I learned about Norah’s divorce and were concerned about her well-being. We wanted to spend some time with her to comfort her. But simple expressions of concern might not be enough,” Corrin quickly altered his demeanor, approaching Norah with apparent concern. “My birthday banquet is the perfect chance to bring her in for a reunion. Norah, come inside. Your mom and I are busy with the guests, but we can catch up later.”

Norah easily perceived that Corrin’s kindness was motivated by the Carter family’s wealth in her possession.

Kathy couldn’t bear witnessing Norah being treated so well. Norah not only possessed considerable wealth, but she also shared connections with Sean and the Scott family.

Corrin’s excitement was palpable, and his breath momentarily caught. He mused, “Could there be something between Norah and Sean? Is there a genuine connection? If we can establish ties with the Scott family, the Wilson family’s growth would be assured.”

Rubbing his hands in excitement, Corrin addressed Norah, “Let Luna take you inside first. We can talk later.” He completely disregarded Sharon and Kathy standing beside him.

Meanwhile, Kathy sent a message to Derek before putting away her phone and turning to Sharon. “Mom, now that we’re here, let’s go inside and have a look.” Sharon retrieved a small box from her bag and presented it to Samira. “Here’s the birthday gift from the Carter family. We certainly don’t want any rumors about our lack of etiquette.”

Samira accepted it with a sour expression. “Thank you, Mrs. Carter.” Once everyone was inside, Samira discreetly opened the box, revealing a mediocre jade pendant. She promptly shut the box, approached Corrin, and clenched her teeth. “She presents this rubbish with such disdain. Who does she think she is?” The pendant was petite, likely valued at less than twenty thousand.

Corrin examined it briefly, but his attention was focused on Sharon and Kathy. “Whoever has the gold makes the rules. Let them be cocky for now. Once our family thrives, we’ll make them pay.” He etched the humiliations endured over the years deep into his heart, anticipating the opportunity to retaliate step by step.

“Norah is tired. We simply need to pacify her and persuade her to keep supporting the Wilson family. As someone without close family ties, what she desires most is affection. A few kind words might instill belief in her,” he suggested.
