Chapter 266 Never Thought We'd Reach This Point One Day

Sam was naive and took Yvonne's words seriously. Feeling that he had wronged her somehow, he apologized, "Sorry, Yvonne. I was..."

"Whatever. You probably don't love me anyway." She smirked and put on a pitiful look that almost broke his heart.

He quickly pulled her into a comforting hug. "Of course I love you. No one loves you more than I do."

"Is that true?"

"Yes."

"Well, if so, I want to be a shareholder of the Bloom Conglomerate. Why don't you give me some of yours? * she suggested, causing him to hesitate. During his deliberation, he heard her complaining, "See! You're not willing to even give your shares to me. How could you claim that you love me? You're a liar!"

"I will give you my shares," he hurriedly agreed to her request to cheer her up.

Hearing that, she beamed at him and gave him a peck at the corner of his lips while holding back her disgust. "Okay! You promised! No taking it back."

"No, of course, I won't take it back!" Sam was overjoyed. Even if Yvonne wanted his life, he would probably give it to her without hesitation. Little did he know that his seemingly minor decision that day. would ring the death knell of the Bloom Family.

Jenny received a call from Gilbert one week after their last meeting. He informed her that he would go abroad for some time.

She had thought that Gilbert would let go of his feelings after that night and that they could face each other like usual after a cooldown period as if nothing had happened. When she learned he was going abroad, she immediately understood that he had failed to let go of her. He wouldn't have come to such a drastic decision otherwise.

At Gilbert's villa, Jenny stared at him while he was busy cooking in the kitchen. She wanted to say something, but the words were stuck in her throat.

Zack walked up and gave her a comforting pat on the shoulder. They went to the living room, where she whispered in disbelief, "Does he really have to leave the country?"

*Jenny, you know the issue here is not about going abroad. He's just seeking a temporary escape." Zack glanced at Gilbert and sighed helplessly. He seemed to have read her mind and added, "I thought he'd let it go."

"Me too. But now I understand that letting go is hard for him."

Zack had long given up on advising Gilbert. If Gilbert wanted to escape from the matter at hand, he would let him be. "From what I know about you, I know you'll never accept his feelings. So, you should let him go and stop advising him against it."

They knew that Gilbert wouldn't listen anyway.

Feeling upset, she had tears in her eyes. "I never thought we'd reach this point one day." She had envisioned the three of them to be loving siblings forever.

"Don't worry. When Gilbert returns, things will go back to how they were." Zack could only hope for everything to be back to norma! when Gilbert returned. Jenny nodded with a heavy heart.

Soon, Gilbert emerged from the kitchen and smiled at them. "Help me out over here."

"Sure." They nodded at him and exchanged glances with each other before heading to the kitchen.

It was a pleasant meal, or at least it seemed so. Beneath the facade, everyone was occupied with thoughts they'd rather not share for fear of causing worry to the others.

After the meal, Jenny lifted her gaze and asked, "Gilbert, when are you leaving?"
