Sabrina stiffened. She was not able to respond right away as she thought she misheard it. “You haven't eaten, correct? Let's have dinner outside,” Gabriel stated. Blinking several times, Sabrina's ears perked up. The beating of her heart immediately accelerated as she could not believe what she was hearing. “What do you think?” he inquired. Gently, Gabriel pulled her, just enough to see her face. However, she was still in shock that her mouth was ajar slightly when he lifted her head. Meanwhile, Gabriel's thick eyebrows raised. His eyes were sparkling whilst there was a tiny smile plastered on his lips. Sabrina was rendered speechless, not knowing what to say. Her chest felt full as she stared at Gabriel. “Do you wanna go out or prefer to eat here?” he asked softly. “W-where are we going?” she finally queried. “Where do you want to go?” Gabriel asked in return. Sabrina reluctantly pulled away from him and looked everywhere but him. “Is it. . .a d-date?” she inquired in a t
Stunned, Gabriel stared at her with his lips parted slightly. That’s not what he was expecting. He believed it was Jacob who revealed that she was married or maybe a slip of a tongue. But never did he imagine that his sisters would interfere. Meanwhile, Sabrina’s eyes squinted as she shifted her gaze to nowhere. “We went to a steak house nearby and accidentally met them there,” she elaborated. Upon hearing it, Gabriel gritted his teeth. There’s a lot of places that served the best steak in the city and there was that particular restaurant that he knew his sisters loved. So, how come they suddenly went there to a place which was too far from where they were staying and usually hanging out? He did not think it was an accident at all. The triplets certainly went there on purpose. “Our table was next to them. They recognized Sir Jacob and chatted with him, then they saw me..” Sabrina continued. She told him how it happened and how Ashley was the one who spilled the truth. She said
Gabriel’s thick eyebrows deeply furrowed as soon as he reached the building where Sabrina was working. His eyes narrowed as he looked at the three people standing by the entrance without his wife. Gabriel parked the car near them. He waited as he thought Sabrina went to the bathroom or forgot something inside and the three were actually waiting for her. However, when he saw them already walking towards the car which was parked in front of the building, he quickly stepped outside the car and walked towards them. “Mr Mondragon?” The woman looked at him shocked. “Where’s Sabrina?” Gabriel asked, ignoring her. “Sabrina already left,” it was Jacob. Gabriel’s thick eyebrows deeply furrowed, “What do you mean she left already? I’m here to pick her up,” he said. “She went home,” the woman answered. “She hailed a cab..” Gabriel’s jaw clenched. His eyebrows then twitched, not liking the idea that his wife took a cab. Just as he was about to speak, his phone suddenly buzzed. “Where
A long and nerve-wracking silence then occurred after that. Sabrina’s lips parted slightly, could not believe that the guy would lie for her!She stared at Jacob with wide eyes, silently asking why he did that. But no words were coming out of her mouth. On the other hand, Michelle and Angelo walked past her without saying anything. Watching them go away, Sabrina felt even more guilty. She was torn whether to tell them the truth or just let them go while believing Jacob’s lie. However, her conscience was killing her. And she knew it won’t let her sleep at night knowing the fact that instead of fixing things, she just added another problem. Sabrina shut her eyes and released a heavy breath. It was the moment of truth. She knew she had to be honest with them even though she was not sure whether they would still accept her as their friend or not, she had to do the right thing. Her heart was beating so loud as her eyes slowly fluttered open. “Wait!” Sabrina screamed then ran after
Sabrina lowered her head. Her eyebrows knitted together as she felt ousted by her friends. She completely understood them, really. However, she couldn’t help but feel sad that in just a snap, their treatment towards her drastically changed just like that. It was as if she was a criminal and felt convicted over the crime she had committed. It was her fault, she admitted it. If only she told them about her marriage as well when she confessed what happened between her and Anthon, she wouldn't have a problem anymore. But she was too coward to be judged and too prideful. Now she had to face the consequences of her action. Shutting her eyes, she took a deep breath and let out a heavy breath. “I’ll just be the one to take a half day, Sir..” she volunteered. They all became silent, as though they did not expect it. Even she did not expect that, but it was better if she was the one who takes the leave than the two of them, not only because of the quantity but also because she’s the reaso
“Sister-in-law?” Michelle scowled, “Who?” Sabrina stood frozen on the spot. All the blood on her face got drained and she sure looked as white as paper at the moment. While her whole body was quivering from both fear and anger. “Oh, you didn't know? She really hasn't told you guys that she's already married?” Penelope queried. “Sabrina is our sister-in-law”Her face looked so innocent but Sabrina knew better. That woman was no different from her sisters as the three of them were already convinced that she was a gold digger and didn't deserve their brother. As if she chose to be married to Gabriel! She was drunk for the first time in life and was not in the right mind when she asked their brother to me. For sure, if they knew about it, they would loathe her even more. Michelle and Angelo froze. Their jaws dropped as their heads snapped towards her direction. “Y-you are their sister-in-law? H-how did that happen?” Michelle stared at her in utter disbelief. “She married our brother
