Billionaire’s Missing Darling by Theresa Wilde

Chapter 368

Prior to Jarron’s return to the country, he had anticipated some level of cooperation, but he hadn’t foreseen it proceeding quite this seamlessly. He had only met Tracy once, and before he could even initiate his persuasion, Tracy had already aligned with him.

He emitted a soft sigh, finding amusement in his prior apprehension.

In the afternoon, Gillian placed a call. Her initial query was, “Jarron, how’s the progress on your end?” After inquiring, Gillian bit her lip and promptly added. If things don’t go smoothly, return. Dealing with Olivia is no small task, and the Grant family may not have noble intentions. We’re secure in Mala. Why should we entangle ourselves in domestic conflicts?”

Gillian eventually moved past her reservations and recognized her own limitations.

She acknowledged that she paled in comparison to Olivia. In the past, she had been overly self–assured and overestimated her own abilities. In reality, Olivia’s superiority made competing with her a futile: endeavor.

Once a person moved beyond their previous perspective, they could view the situation in a new light. Maily post occurrences that had seemed awkward and perplexing now appeared as nothing more than her own stubborn fantasies.

Her grandfather had remained impartial, and no one else had shown any favoritism toward Olivia. The reason for their preference for Olivia was straightforward, namely she was exceptional.

The mere thought of her grandfather caused Gillian’s heart to ache. She felt her entire body tremble with the pain, to the point where she wished for death. The memories were so painful that she almost couldn’t bear to recollect them.

She couldn’t help but recollect the heart–wrenching moment when her grandfather had collapsed from a heart attack.

She thought, “How could I have been so callous? Grandfather showered me with so much love. He adopted me, cared for me, and taught me medicine… I could never repay his kindness in this life, let alone the next. But what did I do? I not only failed to call for help when he suffered a heart attack but also watched as he gasped for air and lost consciousness.

Recalling the way her grandfather had gazed at her that day, Gillian’s heart was filled with anguish. After taking a few deep breaths, she finally managed to regain her composure. Her voice trembled with despair as she said, “Jarron, come back. Isn’t it better for us to stay overseas? We’ve established our lives, found jobs, and are gradually experiencing a semblance of peace. Why should we come back and immerse ourselves in the feud between the Grant family and the Smith family?”

Jarron had been in a good mood, eager to share the day’s developments with Gillian, but she ended up dampening his spirits with her discouraging words.

“Good? Do you consider our lives overseas as good?” He scoffed and added in a derisive tone, “I’m toiling away in the hospital day in and day out, but I can’t even conduct a proper surgery. I’m merely an assistant. It’s not because I lack the qualifications, but I’m not skilled enough.”
