The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel Chapter 976

Brittany was blindsided when Yuri broached the topic of divorce at dinner. She certainly had never imagined that Leila had been having affairs with other men all these years.

For the first time, Saskia didn't immediately follow Leila out of the room. Instead, she sat still, sipping her soup with an inscrutable look on her face.

Gabriel wore an odd expression, yet he managed to keep his composure until he left the Lynette Mansion.

"Saskia, are Mom and Dad really getting a divorce?"

If they did split, what would Saskia stand to gain? And what about the collaboration between the two families?

Saskia knew exactly what was on Gabriel’s mind. "Gabriel, even if they divorce, Dad will always be my dad. He won't treat me any different."

Gabriel appeared affectionate and tender on the surface, but deep down, his mind was a maze of self-interest.

Compared to Gabriel, Jonathan might be a deadbeat, but his affection for her was genuine.

As Saskia thought of Jonathan and Ophelia, a twinge of jealousy crept in.

Even if it was something she discarded, she couldn't stand the thought of someone else claiming it.

Back at the Brandt residence, Gabriel ascended the stairs and announced the impending shake-up.

Mrs. Brandt had never been keen on Saskia, and the news of turmoil within the Lynette family made her slightly uneasy. "Are they really going to get a divorce?"

"It's clear as day. Leila crossed a line that can't be uncrossed."

"Let it be. Even if they get divorced, Saskia is still part of the Lynette family. It won't affect her much."

After all, there was still Holden to consider; Yuri wouldn't let his children down.

Gabriel, somewhat placated, realized he might have been a tad too mercenary.

"Saskia's been down in the dumps lately. Let's not bring this up now."

"Right. You and Saskia have been married for a while now. It's time to think about having kids."

Marriage meant contemplating the next generation.

Gabriel saw the logic. "I understand."

Saskia was well aware of the Brandt family's machinations, but her face remained a calm sea. Gabriel apologized that night, swearing he didn't look down on her status, but was simply blindsided by the sudden news.
