Chapter 351 Why So Ruthless

She remembered the days when she was bullied the most, dreaming that her mother would come back. Holding her in her arms, promising never to leave again, assuring her that she had friends at school and that no one would bully her anymore.Upon waking from these dreams, there was only a cold blanket and a pitch-black night. She curled up, tears streaming down her face, feeling helpless.Such dreams were most frequent during her elementary school days. As she grew older, they became less and less frequent.The last time she had such a dream, although she couldn't recall exactly when, had been over a decade ago.In the past, Gabriella used to wonder, "Where is 'she' now? Has 'she' remarried? Why was 'she' so heartless, never bothering to come and see her? Maybe 'she' has another child by now, casting her away into the distance?"At times, she resented the abandonment. At other times, she wondered if "she" had "her" reasons.Eventually, she stopped expecting a mother and ceased har

Chapter 352 How Was She Worthy of Him

Yasmine was a frequent visitor here, and the waiter recognized her fawning smile.Thinking of her connections to the guests in the private room, the waiter said, "Mr. Melo reserved a few days ago, and Mr. Caddel is already inside."Yasmine's expression changed. Frank?"Anyone else?""It seems … Mr. Anders, Mr. Morrison, Mr. Henderson, and others are also present."Yasmine's face turned distinctly green. These were all affluent people with good connections to Frank. Some were successful in their careers and intelligent, while others relied on their family's wealth for indulgence. Each one had a complex background.Without an intermediary, Gabriella couldn't possibly share a private room with them. Frank was that intermediary. So, Frank had taken Gabriella to meet his friends? Why?Did he actually like Gabriella? Had he made up his mind to be with her? How could he be interested in a divorced woman like Gabriella?Yasmine clenched her fists, her face turning red, a surge of fru

Chapter 353 A Necessary Strong Dose

He had only asked a few questions, and Frank couldn't resist stepping in to support Gabriella.Elijah thought that Gabriella's manipulation skills were indeed exceptional. If he allowed this to continue, she might succeed in her schemes."I'm just curious, you know?" Elijah chuckled, avoiding further probing to prevent upsetting Frank. He planned to take it one step at a time."It's been a while since I had a good time. My hands are itching for a game or two. How about it?" Victor suggested, pointing to the card table.Concerned about the potentially awkward atmosphere in the private room, everyone agreed.Victor added, "Would Ms. Carrington join us? Let's have some fun together."Being kindly invited helped her feel more at ease and integrated, so Gabriella agreed. She stood up and walked over to the card table, taking a seat. "I've played a few times. Hopefully, I didn't lose too much.""Hey, the more of a beginner, the luckier you are, you know?" Victor said, glancing at

Chapter 354 Was That Henry

Gabriella and Elijah returned to the private room, and Elijah didn't say anything more. His seat was now taken by Morrison.Under Victor's mediation, the four of them started playing cards, chatting, and laughing. After a few rounds, Gabriella's phone suddenly rang.She took out her phone and glanced at the screen, seeing Henry's name on the incoming call. Gabriella asked Henderson to play on her behalf and stood up to answer the call in the corridor."Hello?"No one spoke from the other end. There was silence for a few seconds, and Gabriella was puzzled."Henry?""Yeah." A low male voice came through the phone, resonating in Gabriella's ears."What's wrong?" Gabriella felt that Henry tonight seemed a bit strange."I just had a bit to drink and wanted to hear your voice," Henry spoke slowly."How can you be drinking again? Is your stomach okay?""I know my limits." He casually asked, "Are you at the hotel now or still outside?"Gabriella hesitated for a moment. "I'm ou

Chapter 355 A Play Pulled Out of Thin Air

Gabriella swallowed hard, feigning seriousness. "Oh, it seems like it has power. How did it shut down automatically? Could it be broken?"She looked up at Henry and smiled. "I thought it shut down on its own."Henry calmly gazed at her, his smile a mix of sarcasm and amusement. Look at this play pulled out of thin air. She could win an award for this performance!Gabriella's heart skipped a beat, and she involuntarily took a step back. "Why are you staring at me like that?"Henry approached, still smiling. "Gabby, I never knew your acting skills were this good. No wonder Mr. Dominic was so eager to invite you to act."Something collapsed inside Gabriella.She stood stunned for a few seconds, forced a twitch of her lips, and, with a glimmer of hope that she could still fool him, asked, "What do you mean by that?""Don't understand?" Henry took another step closer, the curve of his lips growing wider, but there was not a hint of a smile in his eyes. "When I called you,

Chapter 356 Not Getting a Divorce

When Gabriella was still confused, she received an international call from Diana. Unable to shake off the memory of the conversation she overheard in the police chief's office, her mood soured."Hello, Ms. Toussaint … What's the matter?" Gabriella asked calmly.Diana chuckled lightly, her tone carrying a hint of arrogance. "Now you won't even call me Aunt Diana?""Get straight to the point if you have something to say," Gabriella replied, her tone steady.She used to show some respect to Diana, but now she was reluctant to do so. If Diana weren't Aster's daughter, Gabriella wouldn't even answer the call. Diana snorted."Fine, I'll be direct. Stay away from Ry in the future! Don't think I don't know that you are deliberately stringing Ry along! Like mother, like daughter, seducing men!"Gabriella's breath caught, and she gritted her teeth. "What do you mean by that?"Diana had known Natalie from the beginning, knowing she was Natalie's daughter. Was that the reason Diana disl

Chapter 357 Didn't Appreciate But He Deserved It

During today's filming, Gabriella was somewhat absent-minded. Before going to work, she received a message that Henry had made someone exert pressure on the prosecutor's office.The case might not make it to trial anytime soon, and there was a chance it could be sent back to the police for further investigation due to "insufficient evidence".At the same time, he had hired Jasper, the top lawyer in Florin, to represent Oliver, preparing for all possibilities. Even if they couldn't exert enough pressure, the plan was to secure the lightest possible sentence for Oliver.If it were just a matter of hiring a lawyer, Gabriella wouldn't have found it problematic. It was Oliver's right to have legal representation. However, Henry's intervention within the prosecutor's office to delay the case raised concerns for Gabriella.He believed Oliver's claim that Hannah was the mastermind behind Hiram's murder. The plan was to buy time and gather evidence favoring Oliver.When Gabriella learn

Chapter 358 Life Was a Joke

"You're not Charles' illegitimate child. He isn't your father. Instead, he is your uncle," said Aster.Henry's breath hitched. This news was like a bolt of lightning. It stunned Henry. He wasn't Charles's illegitimate child? Charles wasn't his father but his uncle instead?That meant his mother was … The name was on the tip of his tongue. Henry still had to believe it even if he didn't dare to. The mother he had longed for when he was little was unexpectedly Diana.He finally found the answers to everything that puzzled him in the past.This explained why Diana was so nice to him when he was little. She didn't like Oliver even though he was her legitimate nephew. Instead, she favored Henry, her bastard nephew, more.This also explained why Diana always liked to meddle in his matters. She was meddling with his marriage as a mother. Taking in Henry's stunned expression, Aster continued, "Diana had known your father for a long time. However, your father's family pressured him. So,

Chapter 359 Rise to a Higher Status

Henry was stunned. He said, "I don't understand why you're so against Gabriella. Is your hostility towards Gabriella because of Natalie, who's Arthur's second wife?"Henry had known that Frank's stepmother was Gabriella's mother a long time ago. But Frank and Gabriella didn't know each other. So, he didn't feel the need to tell Gabriella.However, he had never thought that Gabriella would meet Frank at university.Gabriella seemed to be in a bad mood on the day she video-called from Joseubury. So, he assumed that she must've known about Natalie's identity.He was just like her. They were both ditched by their biological parents. Diana was furious as she listened to Henry interrogate her the same way Gabriella did. "Yes! If that skank Natalie hadn't seduced Arthur, I would've been his wife instead. You'd be the prized heir of the Caddel family. So, you'd own everything the Caddels own. Gabriella is just like her mom. They relied on their looks to …" When they parted ways, Arth

Chapter 360 Unappealable Case

Gabriella was silent for a moment. She replied, "No. I'll still return to Toussaint Residence to visit Grandma when I'm free.""Then, why did you suddenly establish that darn foundation?"Gabriella was unfazed by Henry's questions. She answered, "I thought it was pointless to keep that money. So, I might as well donate it to those in need."When she was young, she could also be considered as an orphan. She discovered Natalie's identity not long ago. It made her reminisce about her childhood.She also wanted to manage her assets. So, she established a foundation.However, Henry would never believe her if she said that.He stared at Gabriella cooly and asked, "Do you feel better about leaving after donating all the assets?"Gabriella was rendered speechless since she did feel that way.She still had some scenes left to shoot at the moment. During this time, she would pick a suitable vice chairman and other management personnel for the foundation's operations.She could leave
