“But Dad, we have already had a family table set. The servers already had your favorite meals too.” The woman lifted her hand, but then she noticed Rosalind. She creased her forehead. “Miss Miller, what are you doing here?”
Rosalind didn’t know who the older woman was, but as she called Leonardo as father, she was probably his daughter or daughter-in-law. “Well, I saw a walking stick on the floor, so I grabbed it. Apparently, it’s Leo’s. So we sat and had dinner together.” Then she glanced at the woman. “I hope you don’t mind.”
The older woman didn’t reply, but Leonardo grinned. “Anna, stop being such a tight-ass. Come, sit with us! You must get to know Rosalind. She is a good girl.”

That’s when Jeremy, Antonio, and Isabella walked to the table. Since Gabriel always set some tables as his family’s, their family mostly sat next to each other.

So Leonardo and Gabriel had their unique positions and status in the Da Costa family.Just now, Gabriel sat on the head of the table while Leonardo sat on his right. Rosalind was on Gabriel’s left side. Gabriel numerously asked his grandfather to sit on the head of the table as Leonardo was still the head of family.

Gabriel grinned and shook his head while pulling Rosalind into his embrace. “No, baby. Why?”Rosalind blushed as she caressed his chest. “I wonder if we can talk and then celebrate the party’s success.” She smiled a little as she recalled what had happened at the party. “I’m so happy to get to know Amy. She was friendly and kind.”“We are neighbors in WLS. I know Samuel better than Amy, as we meet occasionally at many business events. They have a son and a newborn daughter, if I remember correctly.”She let out a sigh. “I want to see their children.”“You love children?”Rosalind nodded. “Definitely!”He smiled while staring at her. “Baby, what do you think of having your own chil

He looked at her while she was licking her lips. “Rose?”“I … I want to ask you something.”“Sure.”“But promise me you won’t laugh at me.”“Go ahead. I won’t laugh at you.”“I ….” She looked shy to ask, but finally, she lowered her eyes so she didn’t look into his eyes. “I wonder why you don’t ask me to … to ….” Then her face blushed,

It’s something you didn’t do before.” Then Kathy grinned and patted her pointer finger on her chin. “I wonder if it has something to do with Miss Rosalind?”Gabriel chuckled and held a picture on his desk. After the party, he put a picture of Rosalind and him together at the party on his desk as he thought of her daily. In the photo, he hugged her waist from behind, and she leaned her head to his chest. His thumb stroked the picture. “You are quite an observer.”“You pay me

Bianca delivered Jeremy and Isabella passed the due dates too, but with Antonio, the delivery was faster by only two days.Gabriel’s mother frowned as she recalled her memory about hers and Bianca’s giving birth.“Okay, I’ll come to the hospital right away.

Gabriel shook his head again. “No, you just try to get away from the consequences of what you have done, not because you are truly repentant. It’s the punishment that scares you, not the hideous effect of what you have done to Rosalind and Jane. You are a hopeless case! The jail will help you to realize what you have done.”“You will send me to jail?!” Gregory’s voice pitched higher.“Yes.”“Then, go ahead!” Gregory spat to the ground. “I’m not scared!”Gabriel smirked and looked into Gregory’s eyes. “We’ll see.

The man was conscious after a while.“If you don’t want to die, there’s no better time than now to confess,” Gabriel said. “Your name!” he shouted.“I-I’m … Ric—”A punch struck Richard’s cheek. “Again, one lie will get a punch. Keep lying to me and don’t blame me if you will die with no teeth and blood left.”“I’m truly Richard—”Gabriel hit Richard again. “Go on! I

Warning: this chapter contained violence and heavy cursing. Reader discretion is advised.Pietro stared at Gabriel who stood and stared at Richard with a menacing look. As he had been working with Gabriel for twenty years, he knew his boss would do harsh things to Richard. Yet, what Richard did was too much. So he could understand Gabriel’s mood. So Pietro cleared his throat. “Boss, what will you do?”Gabriel only grinned to hear that and removed his tie and opened his button shirt one by one. He even took his time to fold the shirt and tie neatly, then put them on a table. Later, he took his phone from his trouser pocket, pressed some buttons, and put the phone on the table next to his shirt and tie. Pietro gulped again. It reminded him when Gabriel was in his late twenties or early thirties. It was the time when he dealt with someone who betrayed him. “Boss, remember Mrs. Rosalind and little Jane? You don’t want to—”But Gabriel stopped Pietro’s words. “Remove his shirt.”It was a
