When they returned from the lighthouse to the forest camping site, the tour guide and the other tourists had already cleared a place to get ready for the bonfire.

Gabriella and Colene brought their self-heating beef chili. With a side of roast corn and grilled meat, it could be considered a satisfying meal in the wild.

Will helped the tour guide give out food, and he brought over two paper cups of coffee.

"This is coffee for you two. If it's not enough, you can take more from there."

"Okay, thanks."

Gabriella took a sip and placed it to the side.

A dark glint flashed across Will's eyes. Harry had insomnia so he brought along some sleeping pills. Unexpectedly, his sleep got better and better as the trip went on.

He even said that it was a waste of effort to bring the pills. Now, Will was putting it to good use. After dinner, Gabriella sipped the coffee slowly.

The tour guide brought the crate of beer bottles to the tourists, asking, "There's some beer here! Does anyone want

    Instantly, Will was wide awake. So the person who took Gabriella away wasn't Colene?Will felt immense regret for letting someone else spirit Gabriella away from his side. That person slipped into her tent in the middle of the night. Of course, it couldn't have been with good intentions; that person probably had the same idea as Will!All his efforts were wasted on that person! If he saved Gabriella and placed the blame for drugging her on the person, maybe Gabriella would have been so touched that she would date him! He was very frustrated at losing such a good opportunity. The tour guide looked inside the wide-open tent. Indeed, it was empty. "Did she bring her phone?""No!"Gabriella's phone was still in the tent."Maybe she went to the woods to relieve herself?" the tour guide guessed.The driver and a few others came around. A middle-aged man said, "Don't panic just yet. Let's wait here for a while. If she's not back in ten minutes, we'll go and find her."At this t

    "Mm …" Gabriella closed her eyes and her arms circled his neck, responding to his touch passionately. Their tongues explored each other's mouths. As Henry slowly pulled his lips away, a glistening strand hung between them as it stretched and broke.His expression was pained as his eyebrows knitted closely together. He gazed unflinchingly at Gabriella's expression, adjusting the tempo of his hand.Gabriella's half-lidded eyes revealed her hazy gaze. Her cheeks were flushed and her lips parted as she moaned softly. Henry's other hand covered her lips immediately, stopping the moans from releasing. Her eyebrows scrunched slightly and she shut her eyes. Her breathing became faster and faster, unable to hold back her impassioned sighs.Suddenly, her body stiffened and her eyes shut tightly. Her expression was delicate and all the energy left her body. She slumped from Henry's neck, almost hitting the floor. Henry held her just in time. He slipped his fingers out and rubbed off th

    Gabriella and Colene spoke on the phone. Colene told her that Will's fingerprints were on her tent. The tour guide and the other tourists testified that Will had the opportunity to tamper with her drink. Even Harry said that one of his sleeping pills was missing. The adult toy shop in town also testified that he was there, so Will got caught.It was a shame that their two-day trip touring the Great Marine Road was wasted. They weren't able to set out from Hudson Bay, ride a helicopter, or see kangaroos.Only the tourists who had a more flexible schedule were able to join the next tour for free. The rest of the tourists who could not make it would receive a refund of half the tour price. This was already good enough.Colene asked for Gabrielle's opinion, and she asked back, "When's the next tour?""Three days later.""Then let's join the next tour.""Okay, I'll let the tour guide now."During those three days, Gabriella and Colene went to Carnies and sat on a boat to check ou

    Gabriella's car drove toward Astral Heights. As she neared the last stretch, she instinctively slowed down. Suddenly, a weird homesick feeling kicked in. Gabriella took a deep breath, trying to shake it off.The car briefly stopped at the entrance of Astral Heights. The security cameras picked up her license plate. The barrier gate arm lifted, and Gabriella pulled in, parking just outside the villa.Maria was in the backyard, doing some cleaning, when the distant rumble of a car engine caught her attention. Looking up, she joyfully set aside the broom and walked over. "Mrs. Toussaint, you're back?"Gabriella flashed a faint smile. "Maria, I'm divorced from him, so don't call me Mrs. Toussaint. I'm here today to pick up Fluffy.""Oh," Maria exclaimed. "Ms. Carrington, Fluffy isn't here right now."Surprised, Gabriella asked, "Fluffy isn't here?"Maria sighed."Nope, my bad. I took Fluffy out to the yard for a bit of play that day. Maybe it's too small or has a weak immune sys

    Gabriella packed up Fluffy's cat supplies into the car. Looking back, Henry didn't follow. She sighed with relief, but a subtle sense of disappointment lingered.Seated in the driver's seat, she fell silent for a while before pulling out her phone to call Jacob. Honestly, Jacob was quite surprised to see Gabriella's call. Answering cautiously, he said, "Hello, Ms. Carrington.""Mr. Hoffman, which pet hospital is Fluffy at?"He wondered who Fluffy was and why Gabriella was reaching out to him about this.Recalling Henry's bizarre remarks on the call, Jacob paused before saying, "Sorry, Ms. Carrington. I got caught up in some last-minute work, so I handed Fluffy off to my assistant. "Honestly, I'm not sure which pet hospital it's at right now."Gabriella went silent, not quite sure how to react. At that moment, Gabriella began to wonder if Henry used such a reason to delay because he might have accidentally harmed Fluffy.Jacob continued, "I'll check with my assistant and call

    Colene's voice echoed from outside the door."Hey Gabby, what do you think – cook up some lunch or grab takeout?"Gabriella, relieved, took a sip of water. She closed her laptop and rose to open the door. "I'm good with either."Colene chuckled."Let's go with takeout then.""Sounds good."Not in the mood to cook, Gabriella joined Colene outside and discussed what to order for lunch. Sitting on the couch, Gabriella went lost in thought.Thinking about the kidnapper's skills, it seemed like the victim had to be someone significant. If Gabriella wanted to dive deeper into it, she knew she couldn't do it alone."What's on your mind? You seem so focused," Colene remarked."Nothing much," Gabriella replied, snapping out of her thoughts and smiling. "Hey Collie, do you know any private detectives in Florin?""Private detectives? Why are you asking about that? Who are you trying to investigate?" Colene asked, her eyes widening. Gabriella explained, "I want to dig into the truck

He liked Gabriella, but she didn't believe it at all.He wouldn't have filed for divorce if he had liked her for a long time. If he fell in love with her before the divorce, she wondered why he changed his feelings."I didn't stop Hannah's filming nor plan to marry her. Gabby, I like you. I know you don't believe it, but I still have to tell you I like you. I already liked you a long time ago, but I was stupid. I didn't see through my feelings ..."Gabriella found it funny and laughed out loud. "Henry, do you think I would believe you? You said you liked me, but you went on a business trip for a month to meet Hannah and filed for divorce with me. You told me even if I was pregnant, you would ask me to abort the child. You even ignored me when I got insulted as a mistress. You also met with Hannah on our wedding anniversary. When we married, you told A

    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.

    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.

"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?"

    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

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.

    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

    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.
