Chapter 62 Making Groundless Accusations

No one on the internet could hurt her. Only Henry could.

She had dealt with the press on promotional-related work for MQ and other projects. She knew the people on the internet were like the blind leading the blind.

What they saw was what someone else wanted them to see.

Today's news was an example. The media intentionally steered the tides in a different direction. Plus, they stabbed Imogen behind her back. Someone wanted to paint this picture to the people on the internet.

What they didn't want the people on the internet to see was her clarification. They saw how Henry protected himself. Nothing was said about these on the internet. If she posted the truth on Twitter, it would be taken down within three seconds.

Hugo sat with Gabriella in the bar for a while.

Gabriella asked, "Don't you have work this afternoon?"

"Nope. If I did, my manager would have bombarded my phone with calls. I have time to sit with you here for a while. Sigh, why don't you come to my place for dinner? I

    Hugo went forward and took off his face mask. "Grandpa Albert and Grandma Aster, I brought Gabby here. I heard Grandpa Albert fell ill, so I decided to come and visit. How are you doing, Grandpa Albert?""How thoughtful of you. I'm doing great. Don't worry," Albert said as he chuckled."That's good. Since I've brought Gabby here, I won't overstay my welcome. I will go now. Bye, Gabby. Bye, Grandpa Albert and Grandma Aster. Bye, Mr. Toussaint." Hugo wore his face mask and left the ward."Gabby, your friend is handsome. He looks like a good man," Aster smiled and said.Then she secretly glanced at Henry.From her years of experience, she could tell Hugo fancied Gabriella.However, Hugo knew better than Hannah.Gabriella didn't understand what Aster was implying. She replied, "He is a celebrity, Grandma. He is popular among young girls.""Really? How did you meet?""He was my neighbor growing up, but he moved later on. I never expected to bump into him again.""It must be fate!"

    Henry took a deep breath. He explained, "Hannah is struggling with mental health issues. It's dangerous to leave her alone."A strong sense of helplessness loomed over Gabriella when she heard his explanation.How would Henry understand that she couldn't be bothered with Hannah? This was not an excuse she would empathize with.Plus, she noticed the way Hannah spoke to her this morning. She didn't look sick.If she verbalized what she felt in her heart, he would say that she lacked empathy."You would still go to her even if she wasn't in danger. You care for her. You don't need to twist the situation so forcefully," Gabriella said. "Plus, I don't owe you an explanation for anything.""I know you like Hugo, but you shouldn't see him now. You even brought him to see Grandpa.""Pot calling the kettle black, huh? You chose to see Hannah at this point and brought her to Grandpa. I'm merely following your example.""Hannah's condition acted up. I had no choice but to bring her here t

    Her vision recovered well, so she didn't need to stay hospitalized.The next morning, Gabriella went to discharge herself from the hospital after breakfast. Then, she called her driver to bring her belongings back home before visiting Albert at his ward.The ward was silent.Albert sat on the hospital bed while Aster was on the sofa. Both of them turned their faces away, unwilling to look at each other.Gabriella sensed a weird vibe as she walked in."Grandpa, Grandma." Gabriella turned around and looked at them. "Have you had your breakfast?""Yes.""Yes."Both of them answered incoherently."What's up with both of you? Did you fight?""We didn't fight. Your Grandpa is throwing a tantrum." Aster rolled her eyes at Albert.Gabriella looked at Albert. "What did you do to make Grandma angry, Grandpa?""I didn't make her angry," Albert muttered softly as guilt was written across his face."What's the matter?"Aster scoffed. "You be the judge, Gabby.

    Henry didn't bring along his driver. Gabriella opened the door to the passenger seat and sat there, wearing her safety belt. Henry, who was seated in the driver's seat, didn't start the car immediately. He loosened his collar and said nonchalantly, "You told the doctor that I'm your ex-husband?"Hearing this, Gabriella's heart skipped a beat. Did Henry already know that she was pregnant?She looked at Henry, feeling alert. Her hands that were on her thighs instinctively moved slowly toward her belly. She asked, "Why? Are you scared that others would know Hannah wrecked our marriage and caused our divorce?""Gabriella, that's not what I meant.""Then what do you mean?" Gabriella arched an eyebrow.Henry pursed his lips. "I don't mean to blame you." As Gabriella's husband, he naturally felt uncomfortable hearing that she referred to him as her ex-husband to the doctor.She replied casually, "Whatever, I'm just overthinking. I said that when I got into the car accident. We are goi

    Ms. Carrington, congratulations on your recovery," Imogen said with a smile."Thank you, Ms. Tarth," Gabriella said lightly."You didn't come by these few days. I thought you were so embarrassed that you went into hiding!"Gabriella smiled. "I see that you're happy about getting half of your year-end bonus deducted. You sacrificed that much money to insult me. You're very generous indeed."Imogen's face stiffened before she said, "Gabriella, do you think you've won?""What do you mean?"Imogen arched an eyebrow. "Do you really think it was the interns' fault?"Gabriella stayed silent. Of course, she knew that the person who liked the statement was Imogen. The intern was just the poor sap who became the scapegoat.Seeing her expression, Imogen laughed. "Even you know that I did it. How would Mr. Toussaint not know? But he still chose to let me stay and pushed the blame to the intern. What do you think this means?"What did it mean? Gabriella looked down. She understood very wel

    Gabriella looked at him in disbelief. All this while, staying in the Toussaint family, Henry had always been distant with her. Why would he bring her cake all of a sudden?"You don't like it?" Seeing her expression, Henry asked. Gabriella shook her head, then quickly nodded. Why would she not like it? She had seen her classmates eat this cake before. This bakery's cakes were costly. Once, she had a chance to try their Earl Gray cake, and she couldn't forget it ever since.At the time, her father's salary was enough to sustain the two of them. Her father was never stingy toward her. But for an average-income family, Afternoon Time's cakes were a luxury they couldn't afford. "As long as you like it, that's good." Henry smiled lightly, and he went upstairs.Gabriella sat there dazed, looking at the paper bag. She still couldn't believe it. Before Henry reached the top stairs, she snapped out of it and said, "Thanks, Henry."No matter if Henry could hear it, Gabriella could hear th

    Henry stared at Gabriella for a while before laughing. "Gabriella, this is not funny at all. Even if you have some beef with Imogen, you shouldn't joke about that."No wonder Imogen would say that. However, even if she didn't reveal that beforehand, he wouldn't believe it either.Imogen had worked at Toussaint Holdings for many years. Henry had witnessed her personality and performance at work. Besides, she had a boyfriend of many years, so how would she like him?Gabriella stayed silent. If Henry didn't believe her words, why did he ask her out of fake concern? She hadn't forgotten that Henry was brilliant at faking his act, so she wouldn't take his "concern" seriously.Before noon time, Gabriella received a message from Henry, which said, "Come to my office for lunch. I ordered a set for you."Gabriella typed a few words. "I'll eat in the canteen."Her finger hovered over the "send" button and didn't press it for a long time. After a few seconds, she deleted the sentence and re

    Gabriella stiffened and met Henry's gaze wordlessly. She smiled at Aster. "Grandma, I forgot to wear it. I'll bring it for you next time."Megan said, "Is it Heart of the Sea from the Aurora Charity Banquet? I've heard of it, but I didn't attend that night because I had something going on. I never thought that Ry would bid for it and gift it to Gabby. Gabby, you must let me see the sapphire for myself!"Gabriella could still fumble her way past Aster, but now that Megan spoke up, this was a tricky situation.Gabriella said, "Oliver, this is on you. How could you let Megan miss out on such a gem? Oliver, you should get Megan a piece as well. I heard that the original sapphire that Heart of the Sea was made of was quite big. They should have made quite a lot of bracelets from it. This bracelet is just the owner testing the market.""Really?" Megan's attention was successfully diverted."Of course." Gabriella nodded.Megan turned to look at Oliver. He smiled helplessly and said, "Al

    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. 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

    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
