Francis met his gaze directly. "Big brother's got a lot on his plate. He needs your help."

Gilbert's lips parted slightly, his heart racing with tumultuous emotions. "But..."

Francis understood his hesitation and sighed, "Grandma is set in her ways, and it'll take her some time to come around. But here, we're family, and that never changes." This...

Gilbert furrowed his brows, swallowing hard. "Bro, let's talk later."

He truly was torn.

After being kicked out by Sylvia from the Johnson family, could he really have the gall to show his face at Johnson Enterprises again? "Alright."

Francis didn't push further, lowering his gaze to the apple he had just finished peeling.

"Thanks..." Gilbert murmured his gratitude, reaching out.

But Francis just rolled his eyes at him, cutting a piece of the apple and popping it into his own mouth.

"You haven't agreed yet, so you don't get any. We'll talk later."

Gilbert was left speechless.
