Sorry for Your Loss, It's Me, I'm the Loss novel Chapter 374

"What did you say? Break up?" Yolanda looked up at him, bewildered, even wondering if she had misheard him.

"Yolanda, let's break up. I'll give our parents an explanation, so you won't be put in a difficult position," Bennett said calmly, with no hint of a joke in his voice.

Yolanda's body trembled involuntarily. Losing control of her emotions, she demanded, "You're breaking up with me for some classless woman? Bennett, have you lost your mind?"

Bennett just stared at her, his face impassive.

Yolanda seemed to realize she had lost her composure. She managed to pull herself together, reverting to her usual soft and vulnerable demeanor. "Ben," she choked out, "we've always been so good together. Why break up? I don't want to! Can't you just end things with her? If you do, I'll forgive you."

"I'm sorry, but I love her," Bennett stated plainly, his gaze clear and honest.

"Bennett!" Yolanda cried his name, nearly hysterical. She instinctively reached for his hand, but he moved it away.

"Then what about me? Do you love me?"

Bennett looked at her in silence, his obsidian eyes beautiful but resolute.

He didn't answer, but at a time like this, silence was an answer in itself.

Yolanda let out a bitter laugh, then turned and ran back to the villa, sobbing.

Mrs. Walker was instructing the maid to prepare a few more dishes. As was customary, Bennett would usually stay for lunch.

"Bennett and Yolanda don't really like organ meats, so skip the liver and intestines. Add a spicy crab instead…" Mrs. Walker's sentence trailed off as she saw Yolanda dash into the house.

"Yolanda, why are you back so soon? I thought you two would be going out on a date."

However, Yolanda ignored her mother completely, running up the stairs while crying.

"Yolanda, what happened?" Mrs. Walker asked, worried and confused.

Bullet's ears perked up. Upon hearing Bennett's voice, he immediately ran over and sat obediently at his feet, like a private seeing a drill sergeant—a stark contrast to the carefree dog that had been playing with Yvonne.

It was like he was a completely different person—no, a completely different dog.

"Bennett, what are you doing back?" Yvonne asked, surprised.

"Am I not allowed back?" Bennett smiled warmly, bending down to ruffle the fur on Bullet's big head.

Bullet panted, looking overwhelmed by the affection. What's gotten into the master today? Why is he suddenly so gentle?!

Something was definitely off. The dog subtly shuffled his front paws, inching back towards Yvonne.

Yvonne attached Bullet's leash and walked with Bennett into the apartment building.

Inside the apartment, Helen was in the kitchen, wearing an apron and cooking. She was delighted to see Bennett and Yvonne return together.
