The Day Our Promise Breaks

Chapter 336

"This isn't just about the three of you anymore; it's about the Robinsons and the Jenkinses."

"Brooks isn't just any guy; he's the head honcho of the Robinson family. He's got the whole family's fortunes resting on his shoulders."

"Whatever he does for you personally, I can turn a blind eye to, but now he's risking the entire Robinson family..."

The entire Robinson family?

Brooks had assured her not to worry, promising to ensure Charles wouldn't mess with her mom's surgery.

She knew Brooks had pulled some strings on a business project to trip up Charles and never doubted him when he said everything was under control.

But now, hearing Mrs. Robinson, it seemed things weren't so peachy.

Of course!

Charles was known for being cutthroat and decisive in business; he never played nice.

The Robinsons versus the Jenkinses.

The Jenkins family was already a powerhouse compared to the Robinsons, and if

they went head-to-head, Brooks would end up hurting himself more.

How could she let Brooks gamble the Robinson family's future for her?

Evelyn went pale as a sheet.

Most of her thoughts were occupied with her mom, along with her trust in Brooks.
