"Did you cook this?" Leone asked, pulling the flask towards him. Gabby smirked in response. Her charm seemed to be working. He didn't exactly accept her care but he didn't refuse it either and that was enough for her at the moment. "I still don't know what you like so I just asked Maria to prepare pasta." Gabby explained, attempting to open the flask. "Stop", Leone commanded with a wave of hand. "Let's just eat out." "You can't keep eating out. It's unhealthy and you know it." Gabby scolded. "I know this place. It's not junk and they're good." Leone simply said, standing up. Gabby looked at this man who turned out to be her husband. Minutes ago, he acted like it wasn't a big deal for her to bring him food and now, he was rejecting it again. "Aren't you coming?" Leone asked just before opening. Was he inviting her? "What about the food?" "You can take that back with you. Let's go." Leone commanded. "But I want to eat it." Gabby insisted. Leone turned around and glared at he

"Did you hear?" Nathan began as soon as he walked into the house."Hear what?" Richard asked, shutting the door."Your ex, Gabriella is married!" Nathan announced."Why would I care about that?""You'd care if you knew who she married.""If you want to say something, say it.""Aren't you going to offer me something to eat or drink?" Nathan asked."If you weren't my friend, I would have asked you out of here. Can't you read the room?""What room?""Look around. I'm in debt. Most of my properties are already up for mortgage. Brittany is pregnant and my job can't even beat all my bills." Richard complained."I'm not here to listen to your petty cries and complaints. Gabriella got married to one of the most eligible bachelors in New York, Jay fucking Leone!""What?""Yes! Not even up to two months since you ditched her and she found someone better, someone hotter and even richer, someone that girls are clamouring for including your Brittany.""How did that happen?" Richard asked, remindin

The next day, Gabby woke up to the sweet scent of bacon and eggs. She wasn't sure whether Leone had left yet or not but she was determined to kick off her plan today.She brushed her mouth and walked down the Hallway in search of Leone's room because the one she was introduced to was empty. She asked a servant and he directed her to a room with two large doors just down the Hallway. Still bearing her plan in mind, she decided to visit his room in one of her shortest robes. She didn't want to appear desperate or give Leone the hint that she was up to something else she was ready to put on a lingerie.Without knocking, she flung the door open and walked inside, welcomed by Leone's empty bed but running shower.She had always been a very shy person but to successfully have her revenge, she'd have to let go of her timidity.Without making a sound or alerting Leone that someone was in his room, she sat on his King sized bed and crossed one leg on top of the other as she glanced around this

Gabby couldn't stop thinking about the craziest ideas to make Leone fall in love with her, or at least make it seem like he was in love with her.She thought of hypnosis first, then thought of voodoo but realized she wasn't strong hearted enough to do either. She was going to have to do it nature's way.Doing it naturally would mean she would have to discard the hate she feels for Leone right now. She needed to try to get close to him, reach his heart and make him fall in love with her.Again, she could take her revenge. After making him a hopeless romantic, she'd divorce him and leave him heartbroken. That's pretty sinister but it's better than trapping him with voodoo, right?Just then, her phone rang and she quickly picked once she saw the caller ID."Hello Babes. My hubby told me he was at your place earlier. Sorry, I couldn't come too. Your jerk of a husband wouldn't spare me with all his work but he keeps giving Stephanie multiple work days off. I seriously don't know what he s

Leone looked at Gabby as if pleading with her not to tell her Dad what happened few minutes ago."That's not what I mean Dad.""Is he treating you properly, Gabriella Presley?" Her Dad asked again."I'm not saying he isn't. It's just that you think a luxurious house means happiness and that's how mum thinks. You don't have to worry about me. I'm fine and if I'm not fine, I'll be fine. It's a promise." Gabby replied."I'm really sorry. I didn't realize. Please, tell me if you're facing any issues in this house and I promise to take care of it immediately." Daniel said, glaring at Leone."It's fine Dad. I'm married now. Whatever I face here is my battle. I'll deal with it." Gabby assured with a smile while peeking into the room Leone just showed her Dad."I told you that wasn't my room." Leone whispered to Gabby.Was that supposed to comfort her? He still cheated and nothing can change that. It doesn't matter where he did it. Hell, she didn't care if he did it on the roof.Daniel stared

"No, no. Josey gave me this address and I just wanted to see how my little girl is doing. And I can see she's doing greater than I thought." Daniel said, caressing his daughter's cheek."Please don't go yet, Dad." Gabby pleaded."How can I leave already? I just got here. Don't cry so much, you know I'm always with you." Her dad reassured."Sir, please sit down. I'll ask the maids to get something for you." Leone urged and turned around to see Ashlyn glaring at him.Her glare turned into a seductive stare when she saw Gabby's father.Her dress left little to the imagination as she sauntered towards Leone."Hey Baby. Why did you leave me all alone in the room?" Ashlyn said, holding onto Leone's shoulders from behind and pouting."Who is she?" Daniel, who had barely settled into his seat asked.Gabby could not contain it anymore. She had said Leone was free to do whatever he wanted and she wouldn't care but right now, Ashlyn was doing this in front of her father. She had tried to put up
