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 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? Are you fee

    "I'll try," Henry said. Gabriella gathered the courage to ask, "What happened to Ms. Bennett?" She had a feeling Henry would not be coming back again, just like yesterday. She wondered what Hannah had told him to make him leave.Henry turned around and frowned. "Gabriella, you never asked so many questions in the past."Gabriella paled. "My leg hurts a lot. Can you ..." "Your leg injury isn't serious. If there's anything you need, just ask Maria," Henry said coldly. He left her room without hesitation. As Gabriella stared at his retreating figure, a surge of bitterness welled up in her heart.It was rare for her to show her weak side, but in the end, all she received in return was his coldness. Clearly, he did not love her. Well, they were about to get divorced anyway. It was not her place to ask him such questions.Henry had only tended to her injury, but she became so immersed in his tenderness that she forgot who she was to him.Once again, she had humiliated hersel

    Gabriella went back to her bedroom to take a nap.It was past 3:00 pm when Henry came home. He went to the kitchen to pour himself a glass of water.Inadvertently noticing the gifts placed on the floor, he asked, "Maria, did someone come over today?""Mrs. Toussaint's friend came to visit her today," Maria answered truthfully. There was more she wanted to say, but she hesitated.Henry looked at her. "And?""Mrs. Toussaint told me to call her Ms. Carrington in front of her friend." Henry frowned. "Was it a man?""Yes."Henry had a feeling that the man who came over today was the person Gabriella liked.Considering how Gabriella pretended to be single in front of that person, it was evident that she had deep feelings for him.She was concerned that he might disapprove of her if he knew she was a married woman.Henry took a sip of water. "What did the man look like?""He seems to be a celebrity." Maria did not watch much television. She only felt that Hugo was familiar.He

    Henry's expression darkened as he sneered, "I have no right to control you? You are not only my wife but also my sister."Think about it. Why does he want you to go abroad? It's because when you are abroad, you won't have your family with you. That way, he can do anything he wants to you!"Gabriella did not know what the future held for her, but at that moment, she was overwhelmed by exasperation. She kicked her quilt in frustration and accidentally knocked her injured leg against something."Ouch!"A sudden wave of pain shot through her. She breathed sharply as tears pooled in her eyes. Henry pulled her quilt away and held her ankle. "What's wrong? Did you hurt yourself again?"She nodded tearfully.Henry brought over the medication and removed the dressing from her leg again. After cleaning off the previous ointment, he gently massaged her ankle and applied a new layer of medication.It was only then that Gabriella began to feel some relief from the pain.Henry put the me

    A bloody lump fell out of the box. It emanated a foul stench as the blood splattered across the floor. Gabriella did not know what it was. It was simply too disgusting to look at. Maria was shocked too. When she came to her senses, she immediately said, "Don't be afraid, Mrs. Toussaint. I'll clean it up right now.""No need. Call the police immediately." Gabriella covered her nose and hobbled out of bed."Okay. Should we tell Mr. Toussaint about this?"Gabriella stiffened before she replied, "No, it's fine. He is on a business trip.""Alright."Shortly after, the police arrived. They conducted their on-site investigations and recorded statements from Maria and Gabriella.They assured the two of them that they would resolve the matter as soon as possible. Once the police left, Maria swiftly tidied up the living room without forgetting to disinfect the place and spray some air freshener several times.It was such an obvious prank.The police managed to obtain the courier's

    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

    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.

    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

    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.
