She had forgotten him, leaving him with no place to confess his sins and no way to make amends.
Estelle Macclain watched his torment, her own heart aching in sympathy. "If you love Norah, go win her back."
Xavier shook his head. "She's never coming back here."
"If she won't come here, then you go find her," Estelle said. "Reintroduce yourself as Gonzalez Hanson. You two aren't related by blood. The generational gap doesn't matter. As long as you love her, there's no moral issue. Nothing else matters."
Xavier looked up, his eyes narrowing slightly. "You want me to return to the Hanson family?"
Estelle's gaze grew intense. "Yes. Do you really want to see the Hanson corporation fall into the Franco family's hands? Do you want your mother's life's work to be claimed by her enemies?"
"You once said Norah Lamont could never just be the wife of a barbecue restaurant owner. Then let her be Mrs. Hanson. Give her the very best of what you have!"
"Norah fought hard for you. Now, it's your turn to fight for her."
"The Xavier I know is Sniper—a man whose relentless training and lethal skills struck fear into his enemies. You didn't earn your glory by wallowing in self-pity!"
"Your life isn't over. Everything you've lost, you can take back."
A flicker of emotion crossed Xavier's eyes as he held Estelle's gaze. "Do I still have a chance?"
He couldn't care less who ended up controlling the Hanson family. Right now, the only thing that mattered to him was Norah.
"Of course you do," Estelle chuckled, her smile warm and full of conviction. "Xavier lost Norah, but Gonzalez Hanson hasn't. Make her fall in love with Gonzalez. Make up for everything you feel you owe her."
"Jonathan was right about one thing. For people in love, through the good and the bad, the other person is their entire world. The happiness you can give Norah is what she truly wants."
"She is waiting for you."
Something profound shifted in his eyes. After a long silence, he slowly nodded. "I know what I have to do."
Xavier looked at each of them, a faint smile playing on his lips. "We're brothers. No matter who I am, I won't forget that."
Zachary's voice was thick with emotion. "We'll wait for you to come back, Boss."
The others immediately chimed in. "We'll be right here waiting."
"You'll always be our boss!"
He gave them a nod. "Thank you for everything."
He packed light. His luggage contained only the shirts Norah had bought him, the black leather bracelet, and Circe.
Coco, the large dog, was temporarily left in Damian's care.
When Simon Hanson learned that his son was returning, he was absolutely thrilled. Even though he hadn't yet been discharged from the hospital, he immediately convened a video conference to announce that Gonzalez was officially taking over the Hanson corporation as its new president, wielding supreme decision-making authority.

As the plot thicken. Adrian is done for and he can't try to control Norah, so he'd probably tattle to Janice who's gone for two weeks. Thank you soooo much for the updates....
These updates were too funny. Thank you so much for the updates....
