Sabrina let out a loud gasp.Her eyes almost popped out of its socket as her breathing hitches upon seeing the woman suddenly barge inside their private room. “Gabriel?!” the woman exclaimed. Sabrina’s body froze. Feeling like they were caught doing crime, she tried to get away from Gabriel’s hold and badly wanted to hide from Janette’s burning gaze. Unfortunately, Gabriel’s grip was too tight that she could not even lift his finger! “Let go,” she whispered, almost pleading. Stubbornly, Gabriel tightened his hold instead of letting her go. And as if he did not notice that someone had entered and judging them, he shamelessly continued kissing her and even moved her face until he successfully claimed her lips. Sabrina’s eyes went wide. She held her breath and almost fainted when Gabriel boldly kissed her torridly in front of the woman. But since her weakness was his kisses, her eyes automatically shut and in an instant, she forgot about the audience and kissed him back almost r
Speechless, Sabrina stared at Gabriel in utter disbelief. Frozen on the spot, she stood there like a statue with her eyes wide open and mouth agape. Meanwhile, Gabriel remained kneeling down with the velvet box on his hands. He was patiently waiting for her response. “W-what is this?” Sabrina finally found her voice. Gabriel's eyes turned into a crescent moon as he smiled. He then carefully opened the velvet box and a princess cut blue diamond ring appeared before her eyes. Sabrina shut her eyes momentarily as she was almost blinded by the sight in front of her. It was beautiful. Even more beautiful than the ring she had been dreaming Anthon would buy for her. Just one look and she knew it was very expensive. Those little diamonds around the biggest one in the center added some mysterious and exquisite vibe. Knowing how each diamond costs, even the tiniest one cost a fortune she wouldn't be able to afford, she felt like it was not right to put that on her finger. Speaking of
Just like what Gabriel told her, Sabrina let her body follow his movements without breaking their stares. It was as if she was in a cradle being swayed, it felt relaxing. Eventually, she was able to get the rhythm and actually enjoyed dancing so much that she lost track of the time. “Are you tired yet?” Gabriel queried. That's when Sabrina felt her feet hurt. “Let's take a seat, please” Gabriel nodded. He guided her back to her chair and served her a glass of water. “Drink first”“Thank you,” Sabrina took a sip and carefully put the glass on the table then turned to the people still playing the instruments. “How were you able to prepare all these in a short period of time?” she asked curiously. Didn't he just ask her out of the blue? Because everything seemed to be well planned, she refused to believe he just thought and prepared everything while she was in the bathroom, taking a quick shower. “Bettina prepared all of these,” Gabriel admitted. “I just gave her a call and she d
Sabrina's jaw almost dropped upon hearing it. “S-strangers?!” she exclaimed. “Isn't she your sister?” she asked in confusion. Gabriel chuckled, “Of course she is. But have you forgotten that she chose to cut ties with me rather than be civil with you?” Sabrina felt her chest become heavy. How could she forget that? That was one of those painful days in her life. Imagine, someone would rather be abandoned because she didn't like her. That showed how much Georgina hated her. Pressing her lips, she let out a heavy breath. “But you saved her. So I thought you two are okay again..” she mumbled. Gabriel's thick eyebrows raised. “I searched for her because she's still a family. But that didn't mean I already forgave her. I'm a man of my words, Sabrina. If I say I'd cut ties with her, I would do it,” he said coldly. Suddenly, chills ran down Sabrina's spine.Her husband seemed so serious as though no one could break his words. Biting the bottom of her lips, she looked down on her lap
There was silence from the other line after Gabriel said that. Bettina was probably torn whether to do what he said or keep those women in her hotel. Gabriel knew she was weighing the consequences on which one she would suffer more than the other. “I’ll go back to you,” Bettina said before ending the call. Gabriel pressed his lips as he put down the phone on the table. His eyes then went to Sabrina and saw her scowling at him. “You want them to be kicked out?” she asked in disbelief. He nodded, “Yes”“Why?” She frowned as if she could not understand why he wanted to do that. Gabriel stared at his wife blankly. He couldn’t figure out as to why she was asking that when he was obviously doing it for her. They stared at each other for a long time until Sabrina was the one who looked away. “They will be more furious once they’ve learned I’m here. They might think I ask you to kick them out if Miss Bettina does what you are asking her to do..” she mumbled. Gabriel raised his thick
Gabriel's eyebrows instantly furrowed. “Why did she ask?” he queried. “No idea. She just told me to ask it from you and give it to her then left,” Harold answered from the other line. Gabriel pressed his lips into a thin line. He wondered why his mother suddenly asked for the original copy of their marriage certificate. Was she doubting their marriage too just like his sisters? His jaw clenched. Knowing his mother, he knew she was just asked by one of his sisters to do that. Because she would never doubt his words for she knew he would never lie to her. And she knew that marriage was not the one he would play around. “Did you give her?” He queried. “No. I said it’s in her daughter-in-law's possession, which is true. But I told her I could give her the copy, or even suggested I could go to the courthouse to ask for another copy..” “What did she say?” He asked, curious as to his mother’s reaction. There was a pause from the other line. Gabriel did not feel good about it and w
