Better Brother, Better Life Chapter 554
Gerald had one meal with Phoebe and Flynn at a restaurant, then told them that there weren't any extra beds or daily necessities prepared at home. Thus, he booked them into a hotel instead. He gave them a generous amount of spending money and told them to enjoy a few days of sightseeing in Jeriton.Gerald was incredibly busy with his pharmaceutical company. During the week Phoebe and Flynn were in Jeriton, he had only three meals with them. On the day they were heading back, he said he wanted to personally see them off, but in the end, he just arranged for a driver to take them.The medicines his company developed were now sold in pharmacies all over the country, and he was, by any worldly standard, an extremely successful man. But the only things Phoebe understood about him were his coldness, his indifference, and his complete lack of responsibility.She said, "I don't want to see him."Katherine asked, "How long has it been since you last talked to him?""Three or four years."

Phoebe's expression changed immediately. Over the phone, she said, "I'm in Ravenport. I'll get on a flight back right away."Alexandra looked over and asked, "What happened?"Phoebe hung up and told Alexandra, "My grandmother wants to see my mom. I need to go back immediately."Alexandra reacted quickly. "Okay. I'll have my secretary change your flight ticket right now."Even from a distance, Gideon had already seen how upset Phoebe looked. He immediately left Simon behind and walked over, asking, "What happened?""I need to head back right now. They're changing my flight ticket," Phoebe said.Simon followed Gideon. "You're leaving already?"Phoebe nodded.Alexandra walked back over after hanging up. "The earliest flight is in two hours."Phoebe bit her lip. Katherine was with Victoria, so she would be fine for now. What worried her was the possibility that Victoria would insist on contacting that man, Gerald Stanton.Victoria had been dealing with dementia for years. When Me

Phoebe waited for Alexandra to start gossiping. To her surprise, the latter didn't pry much."You're not even a little curious?" Phoebe asked.Alexandra looked up and smiled. "If the guy had even the tiniest flaw, I would've already dug up his entire family history. But Gideon is too solid. I'm not worried in the slightest. Just focus on enjoying your relationship. Didn't you say you only started to really feel how sweet dating could be after getting together with him?"Phoebe nodded. "It really does feel different.""That's perfect, then. I really like you two together. Who knows, maybe I'll get to be your bridesmaid someday."Phoebe stilled, her expression turning a little strange. "You're too optimistic about us.""Is there any other outcome? You just got together. You haven't already started planning the breakup, have you? That's the kind of thing that I do. I decide on the breakup date on day one.""I don't plan on getting married."Alexandra was a little surprised, but sh

Simon couldn't deny that this was a brutal blow. If Alexandra had confessed to him, he would be so happy that he'd probably strip and streak on the spot.He took a few seconds to digest it. The more he thought about it, the more he felt like fate's favorite punching bag. On all accounts, his love life should've been the better one between the two. Yet somehow, someone as cold and aloof as Gideon had pulled ahead of him."You seriously don't have anything else to share?" Simon sounded a little like he was grinding his teeth.The true experience wasn't as effortless as Gideon made it sound; he supposed he did have something to share. He summed it up in a few words. "Just stay by her side the way she wants.""I know that much. The issue is that Alexandra doesn't even want to see me. I'm already making a mistake by showing up in front of her. I'd love to be there for her however she likes, but do you know what she likes? She likes me not showing up."Simon looked utterly miserable. "I

Gideon said, "Keep kissing me, and I won't be able to hold back.""Go ahead and lose control, then," Phoebe teased.He stared at her, taking in the fearless look on her face, trying hard to hold himself back. Finally, he asked, "What did Evan want?"Phoebe was right—Gideon was jealous. His brows were furrowed, and the worry in his eyes was as clear as day. That softened her heart. She didn't like seeing him jealous."When I woke up this morning, Evan texted me to say that Connor was sick and had a fever all night. He wanted me to go over to check on him. I called him and told him to stop bothering me. That's all. His later message was just an apology," she said.Gideon pressed his lips together. He wouldn't have thought twice about this if Connor's name hadn't been mentioned. But hearing it still bothered him, even though he knew that he didn't need to be. Connor was a perpetual thorn in his heart.Had Phoebe kissed Connor the same way?Gideon's gaze darkened. He leaned in and k

It was because Gideon liked Phoebe that he wanted to be with her.She saw the complete seriousness in his eyes, and she didn't doubt the truth in his words. He wasn't the smooth-talking, flirty type. Everything he said carried real weight. He meant what he said, and one could trust him completely.She liked how reliable he was. He might look cold on the outside, but she knew how gentle he really was.Being liked like this felt amazing. Phoebe couldn't help throwing herself into Gideon's arms, her smile wide. He caught her easily, his hands sliding under her butt to hold her up off the counter. "What's this for?"She said, "I like you, too. I like you, so I want to hold you."Since Gideon felt like this was a dream, she would use ways that they both liked to prove to him that this was no dream. For instance, through hugs and kisses.He carried her straight to the bed, pressing her down and kissing her with fierce intensity. Her affection hit him like a powerful drug, and he lost c
