Chapter 21
At one point, there was only Ronald and Ruby in the living room.
Ronald examined his new wife, his gaze filled with resignation
Before going abroad, he anticipated that he would be overwhelmed, so he left behind his most trusted assistant and housekeeper to help him handle affairs. However, in less than a month, both the assistant and the housekeeper came to him one after another.
Upon further questioning, it was revealed that Ruby had fired them.
Later, he learned that his son had been involved in two car accidents for the sake of a woman, disregarding his own wife.
At this moment, he suddenly realized that Zander had become useless under Ruby’s subtle influence.
The Norton family has always been resolute and decisive, never allowing emotions to hinder their progress, always prioritizing the
interests of the family.
Even with the deepest emotional trauma, one can quickly recover on their own, without relying on others for three years of support
Over the years, Shayla had been acting recklessly, bullying others at school without any remorse. However, Ruby never blained her, she only used money to appease the victims.
This also led to Joyce being bullied by her siblings.
And Ruby, the parent, surprisingly remained oblivious and unconcerned about it
“From now on, 1 stayed at home while you went to the estate to rest”
Once said, Ruby’s remaining life was sentenced to life imprisonment.
Her tears flowed down as she looked up at the man in front of her.
“Do you despise me like this?”
Ronald gazed at the person in front of him.
“I have already given you a chance by not providing you with a divorce agreement.”
With that, he ignored Ruby and turned to the study.
In the study, Zander and Shayla silently watched their father.
In the deep memories of the siblings, their father was always traveling away, and their relationship with Ruby was even closer.
The atmosphere in the study was unusually heavy.
There was a moment of silence before Ronald spoke. And his face darkened
“Shayla, you will stay in Otraria from now on. I will arrange for someone to take care of your passport and other belongings. Do not return to the country without my permission.”
“As for you,” Ronald looked up at his son, disappointment evident in his expression, “have you ever paid attention to the company’s financial reports while only pursuing love?”
“From now on, the position of the president will be temporarily filled by your second uncle’s son. You should start from the grassroots level first, and when you have the ability, we can discuss the position of the president”
“Don’t use the bank card anymore. I will have my assistant give you a monthly allowance, and don’t even think about the shares. Wait until you are truly mature before making any decisions.”
As Ronald spoke, Slayla’s face grew even paler, while Zander remained silent on the side, his fists clenched tightly behind him.
The news of the change in presidency of the Norton Group quickly spread within the industry.
Audrey excitedly narrated to Joyce while helping her pack her luggage.
“Stayed for less than a month and already have to go back to Faymont?

“I had to go.”
She came back just to attend the book signing event, and also to meet the principal and her old friends, and then she had to leave.
The Philip couple stayed temporarily in their home country due to family matters and would meet her again overseas later.
If she had stayed, she would have likely encountered Zander, who had been fired now and had plenty of time. She didn’t want to get entangled with him again.
