Chapter 256 She Is on the Death List
At the Kensington Group, Gabriel strolled out of the conference room, and it was already getting dark.
The setting sun hung low on the treetops outside the office, just like any other evening.
He had forty minutes before his flight, and he knew Natalie was waiting for him in Renova.
Loosening his tie, he was about to ask Brad to bring the documents that needed signing when he saw Brad rushing in, looking flustered.
Brad's face was pale and panicked.
Brad had been his assistant for years, always calm and collected, never losing his cool like this.
"Mr. Kensington!"
Gabriel frowned, waiting for him to continue.
"An hour ago, we got news that the flight Ms. Clark was on crashed. After searching and verifying, it's confirmed there are no survivors."
Brad's voice grew softer and softer, and the last few words were almost just his lips moving.
Behind Gabriel was a huge floor-to-ceiling window, through which the setting sun cast his tall, slender shadow long.
At that moment, the office felt like an icebox, cold and gloomy.
Gabriel's face gradually stiffened, darkened, and his deep eyes instantly brewed a massive storm.
"What did you say?"
His voice was hoarse, cold, and his eyes were bloodshot.
He must have heard wrong!
Brad didn't even have the courage to repeat what he had just said, his eyes red.
"It's true. Ms. Clark's name is on the death list. Everyone at the Clark Group has received the news, and the chairman of the Clark Group has already returned and is hospitalized due to excessive grief."
After he finished speaking, the office fell into a deathly silence, accompanied by a thick chill and overwhelming sorrow.
Gabriel stood there stiffly, his gaze fixed on Brad.
He had never felt his heart being pierced by a blunt object, the barbed sting pulled out, leaving it bleeding profusely.
He couldn't even express the pain.
All he felt was numbness and trembling.
At that moment, his whole body was cold and trembling, as if his soul had been forcibly extracted, his face pale and bloodless.
The next second, he swept everything off the table onto the floor in a fit of grief and anger.
"I don't believe it. She can't be dead. How could she be dead?"
He roared, clenching his teeth.
Natalie was someone who loved life so much!
She was positive, optimistic, cheerful, and always wore her emotions on her face.
Even when Lillian had someone kidnap her, she didn't even frown.
For those three years, she always looked at him with expectant, gentle eyes.
After the divorce, she lived so freely and boldly.
Her playing the violin on stage, negotiating at the business table, smoking openly, looking at him with disdain—every scene seemed deeply imprinted in his mind.
Unbeknownst to him, she had long been intertwined with his world, embedded in his bones, inseparable!
He hadn't even asked for her forgiveness.
He couldn't imagine how he would live without her in the future.
His handsome, perfect face was broken, filled with intense sorrow.
Brad, seeing Gabriel's state, couldn't hold back his tears either.
Amidst the flood of news about the plane crash, Mylan's official flight finally clarified the cause.
Due to improper operation of the internal system, the plane failed to respond in time when passing through a lightning zone, leading to the accident.
The plane didn't even have time to send a distress signal before it plunged into the sea, never to be heard from again.
That sea area was deep, and the rescue planes found no signs of life on the surface.
No one called for help.
The entire afternoon, everyone mourned and grieved for this tragic air crash.
It was hard to imagine the despair of not even having time to say goodbye as the plane went down.
Natalie's name appearing on the official list of victims instantly pushed the tragedy to a point of collective heartbreak.
The long-time trending female CEO, involved in an air crash, inevitably drew everyone's attention.
It almost caused a network crash.
Victor, Kyle, and Yves rarely spoke out on the same issue online.
They posted the same content.
