One Night Stand With My Future Uncle In Law ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTEEN
Gabriella POV I stared at Rodrigo in total shock. "You are sitting here asking me to lie to a judge.""We are asking you to tell the real truth," Rodrigo demanded firmly."I have been telling the absolute truth from day one!" I said loudly, standing up from my chair so quickly it scraped hard against the floorboards. "The truth is that your son tried to ruin my life! The truth is that he paid money to hire armed criminals to attack me! The truth is that he wanted his own uncle dead on the highway!""Gabriella, listen to reason—" Denica started."No!" I yelled, cutting her off completely. "I will not lie to protect him! I will not stand in a courtroom and pretend that he is an innocent victim! He chose to commit those crimes, and now he needs to face the severe legal consequences!"Denica stood up from her chair so fast her knees slammed into the edge of the table. Her face turned a blotchy, dark red with sudden rage. "You are a liar! You are a cold, manipulative, scheming liar!""Den

Gabriella POV I sat in the wide leather armchair in Mariano's private office and stared fixedly at the closed wooden door. The thick silence inside the room was heavy, but I could hear the muffled, low sound of raised voices coming directly from the hallway outside. I could not make out the specific words being yelled through the thick wood, but I could feel the intense, dark tension rising in the air. My heart pounded furiously against my ribs, and my hands trembled violently in my lap.I stood up from the armchair and walked over to the floor-to-ceiling glass window. The city stretched out miles below me, cold and vast. Yellow streetlights and office building lights were flickering on one by one as the sun sank below the horizon. Everything looked peaceful, orderly, and completely undisturbed from this height. It looked as though nothing was wrong in the world.But everything in my life was entirely wrong.The heavy door opened with a sudden click. Mariano walked straight into the

CHAPTER FIFTY-SIXGabriella's POVThe elevator doors opened onto the executive floor and I stepped out into the quiet hallway. The lights were dim and the office was empty. Everyone had gone home for the night. The only sound was the hum of the air conditioning and the distant echo of my footsteps on the polished floor.I walked toward Mariano's office. The door was slightly ajar. I pushed it open and stepped inside.Mariano was standing by the window with his back to me. He was wearing a dark suit and his hair was neatly combed. He looked tired. His shoulders were tense and his hand was pressed against his side."Mariano," I said.He turned around. His face softened when he saw me. "Gabriella. Thank you for coming.""You said you wanted to take me on a date." I looked around the empty office. "This does not look like a date."He laughed. It was a tired sound. "I know. I am sorry. I wanted to take you somewhere nice. Somewhere romantic. But something came up.""Something always comes

Gabriella POV I found Raphael sitting on the soft velvet couch in the main living room when I finally got home. His phone was held loosely in his hand, and his face was drawn, pale, and thoroughly tired. He looked up the second the front door clicked shut, and his expression shifted into immediate concern as I stepped into the warm room."You look terrible, Gabriella," he said plainly, setting his phone face-down on the coffee table."Thanks," I replied, tossing my purse onto the side table. "You look great too."He let out a short laugh. It was a weak sound, but it was genuine enough to break the heavy tension between us. "Sit down. Tell me what happened out there."I walked over and sank into the couch beside him, letting out a long, shuddering breath. I leaned my head all the way back against the cushions and stared up at the dark wooden beams on the ceiling. The words were jumbled inside my mind, colliding with one another. I did not know where to start or how to organize the cha

Gabriella POV "What truth are you talking about, Mariano?"Mariano did not answer right away. He walked slowly across the carpet toward me, uncrossed my arms, and took both of my shaking hands into his warm palms. He looked down into my eyes with an intense, serious expression."Valentina has been lying to you, Gabriella," he said quietly. "She has been lying to you, to your family, and to everyone else in this building. Her sister did not die in a random, tragic car accident five years ago."I stared up at him, my heart skipping a beat. "What are you saying?""Her sister was murdered," Mariano revealed, his fingers tightening around mine. "Her sister was actively working with a rival crime family behind our backs. She was feeding them internal company documents, financial records, and security details. She was helping our enemies destroy the Castillo family from the inside out. When we finally discovered what she was doing, we confronted her. She panicked, she ran away from us, and

Gabriella POV The heavy silence inside the private office was thick and suffocating. Valentina stood frozen in the open doorway, her breath catching in her throat as hot tears streamed down her pale cheeks. Her arms trembled violently at her sides, and her wide eyes were fixed on Mariano with a look of utter shock, as if she were staring at a complete stranger who had betrayed her.Mariano did not jump back. His posture remained calm, but his dark, mismatched eyes narrowed, and a dangerous, sharp edge settled into his tone."Valentina," Mariano said, his voice flat and perfectly steady. "What are you doing inside my office?""What am I doing here?" Valentina’s voice cracked loudly on the last word, breaking the quiet room. "I came up here to warn you! I came to tell you that someone in this city is actively trying to destroy your life! And instead, I walk in and find you like this with her?"She raised her right arm, her index finger trembling as she pointed directly at my face.I sl
