Lahat ng Kabanata ng Yearning for Her Return : Kabanata 261 - Kabanata 270

Could it be that acting all serious had scared Penny off? Rebecca couldn't help but silently pray for Sam. If that were the case, it would be a miracle if he got married.Becca wrote: "Him ... how is he intimidating?"Rebecca decided to tackle the situation head-on. She asked for clarification on what was going on so she could help improve Penny's impression of Sam. Otherwise, she might not be able to have Penny as her sister-in-law soon.Both Albert and Sam were like this. And the men weren't making any progress in the love department either.Penny replied: "Isn't he intimidating? He comes to the company with a stern expression every time and looks very unapproachable. And it doesn't seem like he's into girls. Last time, an investor wanted to add an actress to the cast, so he took her to the bar and had the girl serve the boss drinks. He ended up pouring the wine all over her! Isn't he intimidating?"When Rebecca read the first part of the message, she wanted to explain that Sa

"Your apology means nothing to her. She'll appreciate your absence more than your presence." Every word felt like a knife that pierced Daniel's heart. Daniel remained silent and watched as Ryan arranged the food.There was a slice of cake on the top layer. It was a plain cake base that looked less refined on the ceramic plate. But when he picked it up, a faint sweetness wafted from it. Underneath was the meal, similar to what Ryan had eaten in the kitchen. However, the leftovers were not very warm anymore.In conjunction with Daniel's current demeanor, it made him appear even more pitiful and desolate.Ryan helped him arrange the food and patted his shoulder. "Try to look on the bright side. You got beaten up today. Take that as a punishment. Wasn't that your purpose in coming to Rookfort? You've paid for your mistakes. You've seen her. Why don't we head back?"Though Ryan knew that Daniel didn't think of it this way, he insisted on speaking his mind.Paid for his mistakes? What

Tabitha only did hard labor, so she was more fit than most youngsters in society. Although she was panting, her speed and footwork remained steady as she advanced.Daniel and Ryan had nothing more to say after seeing that. They followed her out of the area in silence. When they passed by the grapevines in the garden, Daniel noticed a stunning figure in his peripheral vision. He couldn't help but stop and turn to get a better look.Rebecca beamed as she stood under the grape vines. She was carrying a child that seemed only a few years old. She hoisted him high enough to reach the more vibrant and sizable grapes.Beside the woman were another two beauties who were seated on wicker garden chairs. They donned modernized traditional wear. The older woman had a kind smile, while the younger one shared a similar grin. They watched as Josephine and Oliver played around."Didn't you say you were leaving, Mr. Winston?" asked Tabitha, who turned around and noticed Daniel staring at Rebecca. A

"How about this? We could stay for another two days. You may not have spoken to her, but we can still have fun in this new city. Oh, right. You saw the old guy named Markus from Four Seasons, right? I hear there's a cooking competition taking place in Rookfort over these two days. I bet Markus came here for that. Bex might even take part." Without waiting for Daniel's reply, Ryan decided on his behalf. He continued, "Why don't we go and join in on the fun? Bex may not want to talk to you, but you'll get to see her a little longer." Besides, Rebecca was still on talking terms with him. Plus, staying for another two days was his personal wish. Yet, it was unlikely to come true since Daniel was in a glum state. To his surprise, Daniel let out a gentle hum of approval."Let's stay for two more days, then," said Daniel."Do you mean it?" Ryan was so excited that he slammed on the accelerator instead of the brakes. The sudden acceleration made Daniel's back crash into the seat. He sh

"Who's afraid of him?" Sam scoffed with a subdued voice. He didn't want to waste time on Kenneth since he had nothing to say to him. Still, Rebecca's taunts worked. Although Sam complained, he still got up and looked at Kenneth. His actions made it clear he was willing to have a conversation with him.Kenneth sighed in relief upon seeing that. Sam's willingness to chat meant there was hope for a reconciliation. So, he and Sam headed to the study. Then, he cut to the chase and took an agreement from his drawer. "These are my shares in the MRC Group. I plan to divide them among you three. Take a look and see if you're okay with this. If you are, sign the papers."He handed the agreement and a pen to Sam. At the same time, he explained the ratio of shares. "Your little sister suffered a lot alone, so your mom and I want to give half of the shares to her. We'll split the remaining half between you and Albert. If you disagree with this, you can tell me now, and I'll think of another ratio
