Please Love Me, Mr. George novel Chapter 246

Olivia couldn’t do anything to Dennis and Diana. So, if Olivia really wanted to destroy me, she would have no choice but to destroy my reputation.

Destroying one’s reputation?

This was definitely something Olivia would do.

I was in a daze when Link, Mr. Shone and his wife came together. So we talked about trivial things while we ate.

With the passing of their daughter and grandson, the two old men grew much older and grey-haired.

After exchanging greetings, everyone sat down and the waiter began to serve the dishes. “Clara,” said Grandma Bennett, looking at me, “you’ve lost weight recently. You need to eat more.”

I quickly replied, “Ok, thank you for your concern.”

“The New Year is coming up, and I think things are pretty much settled now,” Link said with a smile. “Next Monday is a great day. I’m going to formally invite Clara to become part of our family. You two must come and witness her then.”

“Yes, we will!” Grandma Bennett smiled and said, “I thought she was very sweet when she came to our house with Hank, and it was the perfect fate to be in your family now, Hank...”

At this point, Grandma Bennett choked up. Realizing that she was saddened by the mention of her grandson, Grandpa Shone patted her hand and said, “Well, we still have to move on.”

The atmosphere was a little gloomy, and I got up and walked over to the two old men and knelt down and banged my head three times.

“What are you doing? Get up, get up, now!”

Grandma Bennett came to help me, but I didn't get up. Instead, I choked up, saying, “I’m sorry. I was there the day Hank died. It was my fault. If it hadn’t been for me, he’d still be alive.”

After a moment of shock, the two men lifted me to my feet and said, “This is not your fault. We looked at the security footage, and he was emotional, and if it wasn’t for you, he wouldn’t have had the sense to get out of the car. It’s fate. There’s no one to blame!”

I looked at the two old men and said, “If you don’t mind, I’ll be your granddaughter. I’ll take care of you for Hank.”

“Thank you for your kindness. No wonder Hank likes you so much.”

Grandma Bennett sighed. “If Hank were still here...such a pity.”

After a pause, Grandpa looked at me and said, “Clara, tell me exactly what it was about that day. How could Hank, a kid who’s always calm and self-possessed suddenly do something so extreme? Was there a catch?”

Link and Leo didn’t say anything, but after hearing Mr. Shone’s question, they both looked at me.

I stopped and said, “Hank died of desperation. Gloria and Mr. Gibson are both gone. It’s my fault, too. I was negligent during that time. I didn’t think he couldn’t stand it and go with them.”

Mr. Shone narrowed his eyes slightly and said, “What does Gloria and Hank’s deaths have to do with Yara?”

I thought about it and told them about what had happened ten years ago, as well as Mr. Gibson’s intention to give Yara the majority of the Gibson family shares. But I said that the reason was because Yara had devoted her whole life in the name of Gloria, so Yank gave her the shares in order to thank her.

They might not have been paying attention to the headlines in City P and knew nothing about what happened a decade ago. After hearing me out, Grandma Bennett burst into tears. “What a tragedy!”

She sighed for a moment. Mr. Shone remained calm, and after a moment’s silence, he sighed and said, “Well, it’s all meant to be!”
