Sharon quickly cut off Mrs. Summers and turned to Jensen with a weak smile.

“Jensen, my mom has been sick for days. The doctor said it was from anger hurting her heart. You know Summers Corp is my parents‘ whole life, and now that it’s like this, they really can’t take it. No matter what my mom did, please don’t hold it against her, okay? I know you’re grieving Natalie’s death. How about this–I’ll go home and see if there’s anything of Natalie’s left in the Summers family home. If I find anything, I’ll bring it to you, alright?”

Jensen didn’t really want to hear Sharon talk, but her words still stirred something in him.

Everything of Natalie’s had already disappeared from the Grand Pavilion.

Even her toothbrush was gone.

He missed Natalie so much.

If he could get his hands on something of hers now, he might actually let the Summers family off the hook.

“Alright. As long as you can bring me something of Natalie’s, I’ll consider letting the Summers family back into Ocean City’s circle of influence.”

Mrs. Summers lit up at once, but Sharon felt sick inside.

Why should that bitch Natalie, even after death, still hold a place in Jensen’s heart?

But she didn’t dare act rashly now.

She clearly understood how insane Jensen became when it came to Natalie, and that was something she could never afford to provoke.

Still, Mrs. Summers had actually dared to stab her in the back today, Sharon wasn’t about to let that old woman off easy.

Mrs. Summers, on the other hand, was thrilled.

I promise I’ll bring them to you.
