Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change? novel Chapter 769

"Humph."

Gilbert let out a derisive snort, his eyes brimming with disdain. "Do you think I care?"

"Why wouldn't you?" Naylor was puzzled. "Isn't your goal to leave me with nothing? To take away everything that's mine?"

He spread his arms wide, his voice filled with frustration. "You could take it all effortlessly!"

Gilbert frowned, warning him, "When that happens, you'll be left with nothing, out on the street!"

"I don't care!" Naylor's eyes sparkled with determination. "As long as the Harrison legacy continues, I don't care!"

"You're crazy!" Gilbert clenched his jaw, questioning Naylor's sanity.

"Damn it!"

Naylor was getting desperate. "I know that with your abilities, you'll never have to worry about making a living. You're still young. In time, you could build your own business empire..."

"But why waste your time? With such strong financial backing, you could skip years of struggle and achieve even greater ambitions, right?"

"Enough!" Gilbert interrupted, his brow furrowed.

"...?" Naylor was taken aback. "Am I wrong?"

Gilbert acknowledged that Naylor was right, but responded, "Forget it! The day I left the Harrison family, I never intended to go back!"

He couldn't forgive a father who treated him worse than a dog! Back then, in Naylor's eyes, he was less important than a stray!

"Damn it!"

This time, Naylor couldn't stop Gilbert.

With swift steps, Gilbert rounded the partition and stormed out of the booth.

Charles, who had been silently following, heard the exchange through the partition.

Whatever decision Mr. Gilbert made, he would naturally support, but it was clear Mr. Gilbert was not in a good state.

"Go get the car," Gilbert waved Charles off. "I'll head to the restroom."

"Right away, Mr. Gilbert." Charles left as instructed.
