Lynnette nodded and walked to where Jane stood. The little girl grasped her dress and bit her lower lip, as she was scared. It was the first time she went to the church, and she knew no one.
Taking a deep breath, Rosalind forced a smile on her face and approached people who were still sitting. One by one, she greeted them, thanked them for coming to the wedding ceremony, and shook hands, hugged, or kissed cheeks with the guests. After talking with Rosalind, the guests left the church.
She faced Harold, his wife (Nina), and their son (Peter). “Thank you so much for coming. I&

“You made me feel again. Axel also liked you.” Maxwell smiled a little. “It was the first time he approved of a woman and wanted to help me.” After saying nothing for a while, he added, “I know it’s rare, so I must know for sure if I have any chance. If you give me a chance, I’m sure you won’t regret it. I’ll marry you right away and treat you right.”She shook her head. “I’m in love with Gabriel. I’ll be his wife soon.”“Not if he returns to the mother of his daughter.” He touched the back of her upper arm with his thumb. It was a light touch, just a test to see her reaction. Since she was too stunning with what he said, she didn’t react to his feathery touch.Rosalind took a deep breath. “Maxwell, I&rs

Rosalind observed Jane’s reaction for a while. When she reached out her hands to tidy Jane’s hair, the little girl flinched by raising both of her hands as if she tried to cover her head and trembled badly.“I-I’m sorry …. I don’t want a hotdog.” Jane’s face was fearful. “I promise I’ll be a good girl.”“Jane? Sweety?”Rosalind then bent her body and hugged Jane’s skinny body. “Sweety, you can eat whatever you want. I won’t be mad at you just because you want a bigger hotdog.” Later, she talked to the hotdog seller. “Three jumbo hotdogs please. Please pack one for take away. We will eat the rest here.”“Yes, ma’am.”

Gabriel clenched his fist, but he said nothing. He already decided to hear everything first before considering what he would do.“It’s one of the happiest and saddest moments at the same time. I was happy because I would have a baby, but also sad since the man I loved couldn’t be with me.” She wiped her tears. “I didn’t want you to see me in the most miserable time of my life. So I left you. I …” Lydia took a deep breath, “disappeared since I didn’t want you to hate me. I knew it would be easy for you to find my replacement.”“You were wrong. I was almost crazy when I lost you …. I tried to search for you, but I couldn’t find you.”Lydia nodded. “I knew. I didn’t want you to find me. That’s why I disappeared

Jane hugged herself while still bending her head down. “I … I hope you won’t hate me. When Mommy wanted to come here, I didn’t want to come, but she was angry ….” Glancing at Rosalind, the little girl’s eyes were teary. “I didn’t want to hurt anyone ….” Her lips trembled. “I swear!”It squeezed Rosalind’s heart to see how sad and hurt Jane was. “I know you are a good girl, sweetheart,” she said, trying to soothe the little girl.“C-can you adopt me?”Rosalind’s eyes widened to hear the plea. “Adopt you? But what about your mommy? Don’t you want to stay with her?”The little girl’s legs nudged. “I …. I want to stay with Mommy, but she doesn’t want me ….”“I’m sure it’s not true, Jane.”

When they were in their room, Gabriel helped Rosalind remove her dress and take her hairpins out of her hair. She also helped him unclothes. After changing clothes to casual ones, they lay on the bed.Rosalind took a deep breath as she had mixed feelings about what happened today. Gabriel hugged her waist with a hand and touched her cheek with another hand.“Baby, we need to reschedule our wedding ceremony. I’m sorry. You should have become Mrs. Da Costa right now.”She smiled and kissed his hand on her cheek. “It’s not your fault.” Then she stared at Gabriel. “Are you sure you still want to marry me?”“Of course! Why did you ask?”Lowering her eyes so she didn’t look into his eyes, Rosalind sighed as she didn’t w

He turned her body so they could stare into each other’s eyes. “Why did you do that?”“I was concerned about Jane. When I was with her, I found she had a scar on her upper arm. Jane denied it was a scar, but I knew what I saw.” Rosalind sighed. “Also,

Gabriel gazed at Rosalind for a while. “I’ll consider it, but if she’s not my daughter, of course we should plan it carefully. The law is on Lydia’s side. No matter how much you want Jane to be yours, you can’t take her away just like that.”“Even after Lydia abused her?” Rosalind protested. Her hand clenched as she was upset. “I’m sure Lydia abused Jane, physically and verbally. We must protect her, Gabe. Please!” She pleaded with him.“I’ll contact my lawyer to see if we can build a case. If the evidence is strong enough, maybe we can have Jane as our adoptive daughter.”“Promise?” she pleaded with him again.“I can’t promise you anything.” Her face was gloomy to hear that, but he later added, “But I will do anything I can to protect the little girl.”

Rosalind blew her breath. Being fired twice on the same day was devastating her. She even lost a bit of her confidence. Yet, it was a relief to know it had happened not because she was a lousy worker. Instead, it was because Gabriel worked behind the scenes to make her fired.“Baby, don’t be mad at me, okay?” he pleaded with her. “I wanted you badly, so I did what I thought was a way out. I’m sorry if I hurt you, but I’m not sorry that by doing it, I could have you.” He wrapped his arm around her waist. Then he stroked her cheek. “Don’t be mad, okay?” Rosalind still said nothing. It was in the past. No matter what had happened, she would still come to Gabriel and ask for his help. So finally, she let out a sigh. “Okay.”“Okay? You aren’t mad at me anymore?”“I’m still upset because the jobs were the only thing I got, but it’s already in the past ….” She took a deep breath. “Also, you were honest with me. It’s hard for me to know you did it, but again, you could sweep everything under

Rosalind’s water has been broken!”Anna was excited but also worried because it was a week faster than the doctor’s prediction.

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.

After some reassurances from the doctor, Gabriel brought Rosalind back to the car. He nodded and smiled at the couple whose he cut the queue. “Thank you so much for letting us go first. I truly appreciate it!”“Don’t mention it. Is your wife okay? The baby?” The pregnant woman asked.“Yes, My wife and our baby are okay. She only needs a complete rest.”The woman smiled and nodded. “Thank God!

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. Once you are inside, you’ll shout to ask them to let you die.” Then, he straightened his back. “I’m the man of my word. Since I alr

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
