Chapter 356 Not Getting a Divorce

Author: Nebulae
When Gabriella was still confused, she received an international call from Diana. Unable to shake off the memory of the conversation she overheard in the police chief's office, her mood soured.

"Hello, Ms. Toussaint … What's the matter?" Gabriella asked calmly.

Diana chuckled lightly, her tone carrying a hint of arrogance.

"Now you won't even call me Aunt Diana?"

"Get straight to the point if you have something to say," Gabriella replied, her tone steady.

She used to show some respect to Diana, but now she was reluctant to do so. If Diana weren't Aster's daughter, Gabriella wouldn't even answer the call. Diana snorted.

"Fine, I'll be direct. Stay away from Ry in the future! Don't think I don't know that you are deliberately stringing Ry along! Like mother, like daughter, seducing men!"

Gabriella's breath caught, and she gritted her teeth.

"What do you mean by that?"

    During today's filming, Gabriella was somewhat absent-minded. Before going to work, she received a message that Henry had made someone exert pressure on the prosecutor's office.The case might not make it to trial anytime soon, and there was a chance it could be sent back to the police for further investigation due to "insufficient evidence".At the same time, he had hired Jasper, the top lawyer in Florin, to represent Oliver, preparing for all possibilities. Even if they couldn't exert enough pressure, the plan was to secure the lightest possible sentence for Oliver.If it were just a matter of hiring a lawyer, Gabriella wouldn't have found it problematic.

However, Henry's intervention within the prosecutor's office to delay the case raised concerns for Gabriella.He believed Oliver's claim that Hannah was the mastermind behind Hiram's murder. The plan was to buy time and gather evidence favoring Oliver.When Gabriella learn

Henry still had to believe it even if he didn't dare to. The mother he had longed for when he was little was unexpectedly Diana.He finally found the answers to everything that puzzled him in the past.This explained why Diana was so nice to him when he was little.

    Henry was stunned. He said, "I don't understand why you're so against Gabriella. Is your hostility towards Gabriella because of Natalie, who's Arthur's second wife?"Henry had known that Frank's stepmother was Gabriella's mother a long time ago. But Frank and Gabriella didn't know each other. So, he didn't feel the need to tell Gabriella.However, he had never thought that Gabriella would meet Frank at university.Gabriella seemed to be in a bad mood on the day she video-called from Joseubury. So, he assumed that she must've known about Natalie's identity.He was just like her. They were both ditched by their biological parents. Diana was furious as she listened to Henry interrogate her the same way Gabriella did. "Yes! If that skank Natalie hadn't seduced Arthur, I would've been his wife instead. You'd be the prized heir of the Caddel family. So, you'd own everything the Caddels own. Gabriella is just like her mom. They relied on their looks to …" When they parted ways, Arth

    Gabriella was silent for a moment. She replied, "No. I'll still return to Toussaint Residence to visit Grandma when I'm free.""Then, why did you suddenly establish that darn foundation?"Gabriella was unfazed by Henry's questions. She answered, "I thought it was pointless to keep that money. So, I might as well donate it to those in need."When she was young, she could also be considered as an orphan. She discovered Natalie's identity not long ago. It made her reminisce about her childhood.She also wanted to manage her assets. So, she established a foundation.However, Henry would never believe her if she said that.He stared at Gabriella cooly and asked, "Do you feel better about leaving after donating all the assets?"Gabriella was rendered speechless since she did feel that way.She still had some scenes left to shoot at the moment. During this time, she would pick a suitable vice chairman and other management personnel for the foundation's operations.She could leave

We received a report that someone in this bar was doing drugs illegally. So, please cooperate with us as we investigate. Otherwise, you'll be arrested for being uncooperative.

She couldn't imagine what could have happened if Elijah struck again when her guard was lowered.She could become addicted. Gabriella felt a shiver down her spine just thinking about it."What about this person? They were together," the policeman asked while pointing to the woman next to Elijah.Gabriella frowned and exclaimed, "Yasmine!"Gabriella suspected that Elijah's hatred toward her was because of Yasmine.The police looked at Colene.

    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.

He knew she had accompanied Gabriella to Moabia.She wouldn't let herself suffer, and she wouldn't mock others without reason.

    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.

    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.

    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.
