Come Home With Me Chapter 18 Confrontation
After a meeting, Henry leaned back in his chair and slowly massaged his temples while taking a break.Seconds later, his phone rang.He checked the caller ID and answered the call. "Yes?""Are you at the office right now, Henry? I want to come and see you."Henry glanced at his planner. "Did the shoot finish early?""There … There wasn't a shoot today," Hannah replied."Oh? Why is that?"Henry was about to head to the washroom when he spotted Gabriella's locked door. It looked like she was still out.She would always stay for the entire shoot.If she was still out of the office, why did Hannah say there was no shoot today?"When we reached the studio, Gabriella said the shoot was called off because of some emergency. She didn't tell us anything else.""I'm sure there must've been an emergency, then. In that case, why don't you come over to the office?"Henry knew Gabriella's work attitude by heart. She would not call off a shoot without notice for no good reason.Hannah sn

Henry had given Hannah his permission to do this.Gabriella wanted to laugh.Because of Hannah, Henry was once again unnecessarily involved in MQ's processes.Because of Hannah, Henry was once again messing up Gabriella's work and leaving her to clean up after him.Henry could not see all the hard work and effort Gabriella had put into MQ after he decided to swap out the brand ambassador without warning.All he cared about was pleasing Hannah.It was Gabriella who had to deal with the mess that was left behind, so why would he care about the consequences of his actions?Colene was outraged. "What? When has Mr. Toussaint ever gotten involved in something so trivial?"Hannah grinned. "Since it's something trivial, he allowed me to make the decisions based on what I want.""Everyone knows that even details as minor as this one has a great impact on the advertisement, Ms. Hannah. "I'm merely wondering why Mr. Toussaint decided to permit this in the first place," Gabriella said.

Gabriella stared blankly at her phone. She stood still for a while before picking it back up.She told herself not to humiliate herself again.Henry never had eyes for her. All he wanted was Hannah.If Henry wanted to know the truth about yesterday, he would have gotten the information himself. Instead, he chose to believe Hannah.Was this how a man felt about his first love?…"Ms. Carrington, Ms. Colene and Ms. Quinn are still waiting for you in the lounge."After seeing Gabriella staring blankly into the distance for several minutes, Yvonne came over to remind her."Thank you." Gabriella swiftly composed herself and went back to the lounge."Well? What did Mr. Toussaint say?" Colene asked eagerly while Quinn looked on from the side.Gabriella shook her head. The two women sighed."I thought he was a wise man, but it turns out that he thinks with his bottom half too," Colene grumbled. "What now, then?""I'll work things out with them. Let's see if we can get them to compl

The driver glanced at Henry through the rearview mirror and saw him staring intently out the window.When he followed Henry's gaze, he was shocked to find Gabriella standing there.Who was that beside Mrs. Toussaint? He had to be someone famous, given the cap and mask he was wearing.They looked close, too."Mr. Toussaint, Ms. Hannah is here," the driver reminded Henry.Henry hummed in acknowledgment before instructing, "Drive the car to the studio entrance."The driver knew that meant Gabriella would see Henry's car pulling up.Still, he did as told.Meanwhile, Hugo gestured toward the black Cayenne. "Isn't that your boss?"Gabriella followed his gaze and saw the car with Henry's plate number.Hannah was beside it when Henry stepped out.He said something to her, and she smiled brightly in response.Henry opened the car door for Hannah and waited until she took her seat before going back into his side of the car.Then, the Cayenne sped off into the distance.Henry had co

Henry spotted Gabriella, who was standing in the doorway.Though he could not see her expression clearly, he had the feeling that she was staring right at him."I ran into Maverick outside, so I thought I'd come in and say hi," Gabriella explained as her eyes roamed across everyone in the room.“Are you here with your friends?" Henry asked."Yes."Terra smiled at her. "What've you been up to, Gabriella?""The advertisement for MQ, of course."Terra froze. She realized she had unintentionally brought up a ticking bomb.However, not everyone was privy to this. One of them even gestured toward Hannah. "The brand ambassador's right here, no?"Gabriella smiled lightly and poured herself a drink before toasting Henry. "To everyone's health. I'll be sure to treat everyone to dinner next time. To your health too, brother."Brother.Gabriella had not called Henry that since they got married. She downed the drink in one go and set the glass down."Thank you.""I'll be going now. Y

"You're home," Henry said.Gabriella ignored him and went straight upstairs.Henry narrowed his eyes and watched until she disappeared from sight.Moments later, he followed her up to the master bedroom. No one was in the room, though the sound of running water came from the bathroom. Gabriella was showering.Henry swallowed. Then, he got a robe and took a shower in one of the other bathrooms.When he returned, Gabriella had just come out of the shower.She only had a towel wrapped around her while she blow-dried her hair.The towel did her body justice. It wrapped around the curves of her waist and thighs enticingly. Henry could almost feel how soft and smooth her skin was.Just then, their eyes met.Gabriella was the first to look away. She went to the closet and took out some clothes. "I'll sleep in the guest room tonight."That made Henry cock his head. "What are you trying to say?""Nothing. I'm just letting you have what you want—to be with her," Gabriella sneered. E

Gabriella immediately closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep. "He can't see me. He can't see me," she muttered to herself while trembling slightly. The man approached the bed, getting closer to her.Gabriella felt her heart leaping into her throat.All of a sudden, her covers were pulled off.Gabriella squeezed her eyes shut.She continued chanting to herself to pretend that she was asleep. He could not kill her if she did not see his face."I know you're awake. Open your eyes and look at me, or else I'll finish you off," the man whispered in her ear. Gabriella's mind went blank.As she opened her eyes in fear, she said in a quavering voice, "I opened my eyes. Don't kill me. Don't ..."Her words faded away as she took a clear look at the man's face.It was Henry.Gabriella froze. Her expression was a mix of fear, confusion, and embarrassment.How could she forget that Henry was still at home? On top of that, the villa had excellent security measures in place. No one

After an indeterminate amount of time, Gabriella regained consciousness. She immediately noticed the scent of disinfectant in the air.She looked around and realized that she was in the hospital ward."Gabriella, you're awake. How are you feeling?"Henry's handsome face came into her line of sight. "I'm fine." She subconsciously put her hand on her abdomen and glanced out the window.It was already nighttime. Right then, her stomach grumbled. "You must be hungry. Let me get someone to bring you some food.""That's going to take some time. I'm starving. Can you go down and buy me something to eat?" Gabriella looked up at him.It was the first time Henry saw her being this meek. He nodded and replied, "Alright. I'll go right away. If you need anything, just call the nurse. Don't try to get out of bed by yourself."Gabriella nodded. After Henry left, Gabriella pressed the call button for the nurse.Soon, a nurse came over and asked, "Is there anything you need?

Come Home With Me Chapter 465 Pregnant
Carmila, dressed in a gorgeous wedding gown, entered with Zain.After exchanging rings, Shawn and Carmila headed toward their parents in the front row.Layla's seat was on the opposite side, and the gorgeous flowers on stage hid her view, so she could only hear what was happening.The newlyweds appeared on stage with the four elders for a group shot.She narrowed her eyes and noticed that Shawn's mother resembled her landlord.Chris also had the same realization and whispered to her, "Layla, do you think that person looks like our landlord?""They do look quite similar."The ceremony was over. The newlyweds left, and the waiters began serving dishes.Carmila was pregnant and didn't need to toast. Only Shawn came forward to drink with the Sanderson elders.After toasting, he placed the wine glass on the tray, followed the elders' instructions, and turned to the next table.When he noticed a familiar figure at the table, he stopped and narrowed his eyes. He looked at Layla, the

Shawn and Carmila's wedding was rescheduled once Henry had been safely released from the detention center.However, Carmila's pregnancy was already showing, so the wedding was kept simple.Firstly, everyone thought she would appear unsightly if she married while being visibly pregnant. The second reason was that they feared the complex wedding would exhaust her and the child in her womb.Carmila was displeased, but she had no say in the matter. Furthermore, insisting on a bigger ceremony would make it appear that she didn't care about the child.The wedding car left Florin around 5:00 am and picked her up at 8:00 am.Shawn was in a suit, and Carmila was in a wedding gown. They stood together and carried out the ceremony amidst their elders' blessings.Then, he helped her into the bridal chamber.Meanwhile, Gabriella, along with Megan and several close relatives, entertained the guests who were seeing off the bride.Everyone left for the hotel around 10:00 a.m.Although the wed
Come Home With Me Chapter 463 Taking the Blame
Naturally, Elaine wouldn't tell the truth. "I've told you about Moabia before. They're the ones who took the watch. "I ran into Fay's friend at the mall two days ago. She recognized and mocked me! I was outraged and tried to scare them today. But they smashed my car, pinned me to the ground, and beat me!"Unexpectedly, Sam scowled. "Nothing would happen if you didn't scare them."As soon as he heard about Moabia, he knew that Gabriella's friend, whom Elaine mentioned, was Colene.Although he hadn't returned to Chatan at that time, he had been following Colene's Twitter account and checking it frequently. He knew she had accompanied Gabriella to Moabia.She wouldn't let herself suffer, and she wouldn't mock others without reason. There must be a reason for everything.Furthermore, Elaine's words lacked credibility.Everyone would choose to portray themselves favorably, including her. Just like when she broke a person's leg and said it was just a minor injury. Elaine couldn't b

Alicia looked over and saw Colene drag Elaine by the hair and push her to the ground. Colene even tied her hands with a rope as she struggled.Gabriella straddled Elaine, grabbed her chin, and slapped her twice.It was a rare opportunity to teach Elaine a lesson. She naturally wanted to settle the scores!Alicia was speechless. Sam's plane was about to land. She didn't want to face him with a bruised and swollen face."Ah! Just wait and see! I'll kill you bitches! Let go of me! My uncle will shoot you both! Ah! Fay, you bitch!"Elaine was crying and howling on the ground, her voice shrill. It was the first time in her life that she had suffered such humiliation! She swore to take revenge on them!She would make sure Blake had them jailed and executed!Elaine's cries attracted several passersby.Seeing that the destroyed car was a Maserati, they realized they couldn't intervene. So, they just watched from the side. No one dared to step forward.Someone was filming Gabriella, bu

They were her nemesis!Elaine fixed her gaze on Gabriella and Colene, filled with rage. "I must teach them a lesson!"Alicia, trying to discourage her, said, "Elaine, I don't think it's a good idea. We're in Chatan…""My uncle's here. What are you afraid of?" Elaine replied unconcernedly, "Follow me."Gabriella and Colene stepped into a clothing store while talking. The clothing in the store was stylish. Gabriella chose a one-shoulder dress and entered the changing room.Colene was outside and exclaimed with astonishment, "Damn! So the woman standing with Henry outside the women's restroom door that day was Elaine?"Gabriella frequently videocalled her while in Draken, telling her about her situation there.She then realized that Gabriella had met the self-righteous foolish Elaine, the young lady of the Draken's wealthy family, on the plane again."It's her," Gabriella responded as she changed clothes."She came to Florin?""Do you remember that we met a big shot at the pol

Then she turned slightly to see that Felise was still fast asleep. However, they were so close that they might wake her up.Gabriella didn't want Felise to catch them in the act.Henry didn't answer. He blew hot air onto Gabriella's neck, and goosebumps prickled her skin. He caught her earlobe and sucked it hard.A jolt of electricity seemed to shoot through her, and she shuddered. She curled her toes and shrank back.Suddenly, Gabriella became fully awake, and she tightened around Henry's hand. "What… what are you doing?"Henry's mouth was next to her ear, and his breath was hot on her earlobes. "I'm helping you relax.""No…""When you're relaxed, I'll sleep."Gabriella remained silent. Then, she bit her lip. "No, Henry… don't… uh, Lise is beside me… don't…"A light seemed to flash across her brain, and she stiffened suddenly, and her eyes went out of focus as she stared at the ceiling. Her breathing turned heavy.Henry kissed her cheek and got some wet towels to wipe her do

Felise hadn't seen Gabriella in two months, and she missed her dearly.After school, Felise got in line with the other children to leave the kindergarten. She looked around and heard her seatmate say, "Lise, your parents have come together to get you!"Felise followed the gaze of her seatmate, and she saw a man and a woman standing side by side, their eyes searching through the crowd of kindergarteners. The man wore a black shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows, revealing his lean forearms. He wore black pants and a leather belt, which showed off his long legs. He looked like a model.The woman wore a fitting white lace blouse, and there was a white-gold necklace around her creamy neck. Her arms were fair and slender, like snow, and she wore a short khaki-colored miniskirt. Her legs were slim and fair, and her skin was flawless. They were a very good-looking couple, and they attracted the attention of many of the parents. Even the children couldn't help looking over at

It was already noon. Henry told the driver to make a detour to a restaurant. The waiter led them to a private room on the second floor and politely handed them a menu.Henry had come here a few times before. Perhaps it was because he didn't like lamb, but he only just noticed that there were several signature lamb dishes on the menu. Gabriella looked through the menu and ordered a few at random.Henry heard her orders and told the waiter, "Add a braised lamb and lamb rack.""You have great taste, sir. These are our signature dishes." The waiter smiled and noted it down."Will it be too much?""It's okay. We can bring it back if we can't finish it." Henry gave the menu to the waiter. "That's all."While they waited for the food to be served, the two of them chatted casually.Henry told her in detail about all the affiliated companies under Toussaint Holdings and the new products the studios were about to launch. He asked Gabriella which of these she was interested in. As lo
Come Home With Me Chapter 457 Office Romance
Then Layla heard something that made her lose all hope."Layla, come to my office."She opened her mouth, then deflated and said, "Okay."The intern looked curiously at Shawn's retreating figure and said, "Why does Mr. Shawn want to see you?""I don't know. Whatever it is, I'll find out when I go. I'm leaving." Layla carried an expression of dignified resignation.She guessed that Shawn wanted to see her about the office romance issue. She wasn't dating Robin, but it was worse than dating. Shawn had just stepped into the office when Layla followed him in. Her head was lowered, and she looked uneasy. "Mr. Shawn, what do you want to see me about?" she asked, her voice hoarse. Shawn sat down behind the desk and arranged the documents on it. He asked casually, "Do you remember what I asked you during your interview?""Y-yes… you asked me what I think about office romances." Layla lowered her gaze and answered in a small voice. Her palms were sweating, and her heart was in her t
