Then, a voice dripping with sarcasm cut through the crowd: "Maybe she’s here to beg Gabriel to take her back. Think about it, the Sterling family is so prestigious. If it were you, would you walk away from such a fortune? If it were me, I’d cling to him even if it killed me.""True enough. I heard she can’t have children, which is why she got dumped. She deserved it, so what’s there to be bitter about?"As soon as these words were spoken, the guests once again turned their eyes toward Catherine. Some sneered, others pitied her, while the men looking to approach her grew even more excited. The fact that she couldn’t have children was a bonus for them; the last thing they wanted was to accidentally father a child in a casual fling. Money could solve problems, but if their competitors found out, it would be a headache.With this thought, one of the young men from the crowd carried his glass of wine over to Catherine and asked, "May I sit here for a moment, Miss?"Before Catherine could r

Gabriel’s grip on her delicate wrist caused Catherine to wince in pain. Internally, she mocked him for his ability to stir up trouble. He had sent people to forcibly bring her here, yet now he was questioning her as if she had been eager to attend his engagement.Catherine was about to respond when he suddenly grabbed an orange from the banquet table and shoved it into her mouth, muffling her voice with nothing but "mmm" sounds. Then, he swiftly pinned her arms behind her back, removed his tie, and bound her with it, motioning to the security guards standing nearby."Take her to the waiting room."He truly lived up to his reputation as the grandson of a former national leader, displaying quick, efficient movements. Even though the person he was manhandling was a fragile woman, it didn’t diminish the admiration of the onlookers.Someone started laughing, and soon, the other guests covered their mouths to stifle their laughter, leaving Catherine utterly humiliated.She never expected Ga

Gabriel relaxed his expression and smiled, "I’m fine."But in truth, rage was boiling inside him. At this moment, he wanted nothing more than to storm up to the room and confront Catherine, to ask if she really no longer loved him.Then, he recalled the scene of her surrounded by men earlier, and the sense of danger grew even stronger. He hadn’t expected her to be so sought after after their divorce.Damn it, she was nothing but a flirt!Once the ceremony was over, he would teach her a lesson....Outside the waiting room, two bodyguards stood watch, and with no windows inside, Catherine had no way to escape. She didn’t know how long the engagement would last or when it would finally be over.Catherine sat on the bed waiting, but her phone had no signal. At this moment, there was nothing she could do but close her eyes and try to sleep.Just as she was about to doze off, her body suddenly became unbearably hot, her limbs weak, and her mind dizzy, unable to clearly see the objects arou

Even Juliet, who tried to enter, was coldly turned away. Gabriel intentionally separated everyone, leaving only himself and Catherine, whose body was now burning with desire from the drug, alone in the room.Having been in the business world since childhood, Gabriel naturally knew that Catherine had been drugged, but that didn’t stop the raging fire burning within him. Right now, he wanted to use this shameless ex-wife of his to extinguish it.Gabriel moved toward Catherine, crouched down in front of her, and watched as she squirmed uncomfortably. He softly said, "I’ll help you detoxify."Catherine’s head was still spinning, but not to the point of losing all her senses. She knew Gabriel wouldn’t lower himself to force her, so she braced her hands and crawled into the bathroom.Gabriel followed, thinking that doing it in the bathroom was fine. There were probably a lot of people outside, and if any embarrassing sounds were made, it wouldn’t be good.Unexpectedly, as soon as she got in

"I... I don't know anything."The maid trembled in fear, afraid that Gabriel would kill her to silence her.Thinking of this, she desperately ran toward the door and opened it.And when the door swung open, Gabriel's mother and his fiancée were standing there, their faces pale as they took in the scene inside.Because Gabriel had shielded her, the guests couldn’t see Catherine's exposed body, but everyone knew exactly what the two of them had been doing in that room. There was a moment of awkward silence as everyone exchanged bewildered glances."Brother Gabriel... sob... why..." Juliet burst into tears, covering her mouth in disbelief as she looked at Gabriel and Catherine entangled together.Seeing her like this, every man present felt a surge of sympathy, wanting to protect her. But the group had barged in, ruining Gabriel’s moment, which left him furious."Everyone, get out!"Without offering any explanation or comfort, he simply and rudely ordered everyone who was staring at Cath

From Juliet’s words, not only were Mrs. Sterling and Gabriel displeased, but the others also looked at Catherine with disdain.Catherine clenched her fists. Juliet’s crude manipulation of the truth was obvious, yet these people who considered themselves of high intellectual stature were easily swayed. To her, they weren’t siding with Juliet out of sympathy but rather to curry favor with the Sterling family.If she left today without doing anything, the label of being selfish and unreasonable would stick to her, and in the future, whenever she appeared in public, people would point and gossip about her.Since that was the case, she decided to go all out. She didn’t believe that Gabriel could kill her right here.Then, Catherine’s gaze turned cold. She was no longer as furious as before but calm and composed, her dignified aura radiating from within, commanding respect."Miss Juliet, if you're going to pretend, at least do it convincingly. The idea that you and Gabriel are clean and inn

As Catherine ran with her head down, she suddenly collided with something solid. Upon closer inspection, it was a man’s chest. She looked up, and what greeted her was a gentle smile."The rain is so heavy. Why didn’t you wait inside the restaurant? You might catch a cold."Catherine rubbed her eyes and looked at Michael. He was six-foot-three, and she only reached his chest, making it seem as though she was cradled within his embrace."Why are you here?" Catherine asked.At that moment, the cold wind mixed with rain hit her, and already soaked to the bone, she shivered unconsciously. Michael quickly draped his coat over her and pulled her into the car, turning up the heat a bit before saying:"I heard from Emily that your ex-husband's people forced you to attend his engagement party, so I drove over. I was just about to come in and look for you when I saw you running out in the rain."When Michael heard the whole story from Emily, he rushed over immediately, filled with worry that her

Hmm... tomorrow Catherine would have to leave the Stonehaven City, find a place far away from the Sterling family to live. She didn’t want to be entangled with her ex-husband and foster sister any longer.Sterling Residence.Gabriel stood on the balcony, smoking, the white smoke blending with the rain, creating an eerie stillness.It had been a long time since he last smoked. He had quit because he was afraid the smoke would affect Catherine. But now that she was gone, who was left for him to worry about?Today was supposed to be a joyous day, but he couldn’t find any joy in it. Every time he thought of how after the divorce, Catherine still attracted men, it irked him.She was truly annoying. Why couldn’t she stay put and wait for him? Didn’t he promise that after Juliet gave birth, he would restore her position as the eldest daughter-in-law? What was she dissatisfied with, acting up like that?Gabriel flicked the cigarette to the ground, crushing it under his shoe, yet the anger in

Gabriel was terrified that his Catherine would stop loving him. Even though nearly a year had passed, he still couldn't shake the haunting memory that Catherine had once abandoned him, had once stopped loving him.Catherine looked at Gabriel, standing beside her, crying so hard that tears and snot were running down his face like a child, and she felt utterly helpless. She was in so much pain that she couldn't even lift her arm. Otherwise, she would have slapped him and told him to be quiet and stop bothering the doctor.After so many years together, how had she not realized that this man was such a fool?The elderly physician, roused in the middle of the night, examined Catherine and declared:"Mrs. Catherine is two months pregnant."What?Catherine and Gabriel’s eyes widened."You bastard!"Catherine threw a pillow at Gabriel’s face. Their first son had only been born six months ago, and now she was two months pregnant again? If word got out, she would be a laughingstock!On a chilly

But being old and frail, he couldn’t win against Mrs. Smith and could only stand there, pounding his chest and stomping his feet in frustration.Gabriel paid no attention to the commotion outside. He was now in the recovery room with Catherine.He kissed her forehead and softly said, "You've worked so hard, my love."Catherine smiled and replied, "Hearing you ask why it’s a boy, you must really want a daughter, don’t you? Let’s have a daughter next time."Gabriel smiled brightly."Deal."A week later, Juliet’s lover, who had driven the car that hit Gabriel, was captured at the border of country C. Both were sentenced to twenty years in prison for numerous crimes.A month later, the first-month celebration for the eldest son of the Sterling family leader was held, and the country’s elite eagerly offered their congratulations.Two months later, the wedding of the century between Gabriel and his former wife, Catherine, took place, leaving both local and international elites in shock.Som

Soon after, Catherine and the assistant were ushered out of the emergency room. During the agonizing hours of waiting, Old Master Sterling kept his eyes fixed on her swollen belly, his gaze glowing with intensity.The lights in the emergency room finally dimmed, and the doctor emerged, announcing, "Mr. Sterling has passed the critical stage, but due to prolonged signs of exhaustion, he’ll need close monitoring for some time."Catherine sighed in relief, her tears streaming down her cheeks, though a bright smile tugged at her lips.The assistant jumped up and hugged Emily, shouting, "It’s great news! Boss Gabriel is going to be okay!""Get off me!" Emily pushed the assistant away, her face filled with disgust. Realizing what she had done, the assistant’s face flushed red as he sneaked a glance at her.Beautiful but way too fierce.Old Master Sterling approached Catherine, smiling, and said, "Now that Gabriel is safe, you should come home with me. It’s not right to be out on your own wh

"Let her come. It’s been three months now, and Gabriel probably thinks I’m dead. There’s no need to fear him finding out anymore."Catherine’s tone was bitter when she said this. Not just three months — after hearing the news of her supposed suicide, she was sure that he and his grandfather had rushed to marry Juliet into the family by now.That afternoon, Emily excitedly drove to see Catherine. For the past three months, she hadn’t dared to call her for fear that Gabriel might be monitoring her. Now, she could finally meet her friend again.However, Emily didn’t know that as soon as she left, a car began following her. The moment Catherine stepped out to greet her with her swollen belly, a camera captured the scene and sent the image straight to Gabriel’s phone.Seeing the woman he longed for still alive and well, Gabriel’s hands trembled slightly. His instincts had been right; Emily really did know where Catherine was."Thank goodness, Catherine... you’ve returned to me, and our chi

Gabriel lunged forward, grabbing Juliet by the throat, but she gritted her teeth and continued: "Don’t pretend to be faithful here. Who kicked his ex-wife out with nothing? Who humiliated her in front of everyone? Who turned her from a wife into a mistress? It was you! You’re the one who killed Catherine!""No! Catherine isn’t dead! Catherine is still out there, waiting for me. Do you hear me?"Gabriel shouted, his face flushed with rage, the whites of his eyes bloodshot, veins pulsing angrily on his forehead.Seeing that Juliet was about to be strangled to death, the butler intervened:"Master, don’t commit a murder. If you’re arrested, it will be difficult to resolve."Upon hearing the word "arrest," Gabriel immediately released Juliet. He couldn’t afford to be taken away; he still had to find Catherine."Call the police and have her dealt with."Juliet quickly scrambled to her feet and ran off. The butler started to follow, but Gabriel waved him off: "Let her go, just report it to

Old Master Sterling, sitting beside them, saw Gabriel being harsh toward Juliet and gently advised:"Your mother is still in there. When you two are married, Juliet will be the one taking care of her. How can you shout at her like that?"Juliet quickly added, "Could it be that Brother Gabriel thinks I’ll be lazy and not care for Auntie? I’ve always treated her like my own mother and would never neglect her."Saying this, Juliet wrapped her arms around Gabriel, whispering softly: "I will be a good wife, always obedient to you and the elders in the family. Don’t worry."Now that Catherine was dead, and Mrs. Sterling was bedridden, wouldn’t she, once married to Gabriel, become the lady of the Sterling family?Haha, who would have thought that an orphaned girl sold like a commodity years ago would rise to this day? When that time comes, she’ll show those wealthy upper-class ladies who’s in charge and make them bow to her like servants.Lost in her daydream, Juliet didn’t even notice when

"Boss! Don’t go alone, let me drive you."But Gabriel was already racing onto the main road, his speed increasing rapidly.The assistant, frustrated, beat his chest and stomped his feet, hailing a taxi to chase after him, completely oblivious to Emily’s sly smile behind him.Gabriel wanted to drive to the beach to confirm one more time. As long as a day passed without finding Catherine's body, he refused to believe she was dead.Ring...Suddenly, the sound of a phone ringing interrupted him. Seeing it was the butler’s number, Gabriel immediately answered."Young master, please come quickly to Stering Hospital. The mistress fell down the stairs and is in a coma. She’s currently in critical care."Gabriel hung up, furrowing his brows deeply before turning the car around and driving to the hospital.Now outside the emergency room, Juliet was crying non-stop, while Old Master Sterling sat on a chair, his face extremely grim.As soon as she saw Gabriel arrive, Juliet rushed toward him, sob

"Boss."His assistant had rushed over after hearing the news and found Gabriel collapsed on the road. He immediately tried to help him up."Let go! I need to find Catherine!"Gabriel’s head was spinning, his vision growing blurry, but he stubbornly tried to stand."There’s no need to look anymore. The police just called. They found Ms. Caldwell’s shoes on the edge of a cliff. It’s suspected that she jumped into the sea.""No... pfft!"Gabriel spat out a mouthful of blood before collapsing into unconsciousness.In his dreams, Gabriel saw himself holding Catherine's hand as they walked into a wedding hall. She smiled radiantly, her face glowing like the sun, her eyes brimming with happiness.He was happy too. His heart raced for her, and they were meant to be together, destined to walk the path of life side by side."Daddy..."A child's voice echoed. With a blink, the wedding hall transformed into a park. Catherine was holding a little girl in her arms, and the child looked exactly like

Perhaps because Catherine had been in the hospital for too long, her stomach seemed a bit rounder. Thinking this, he chuckled to himself, "The more chubby, the better. Touching this belly is so comfortable."Suddenly, his hand was slapped away. Catherine sat up abruptly and shouted, "How long are you going to torment me? Do you want me dead to finally be satisfied?"Gabriel couldn’t hold it in any longer. These past days, he had endured so much for her, just hoping she would say something to him. And now, she was still treating him this way?"Who’s ignoring who here? You’ve been the one pushing me away. After all we’ve been through, can’t you give me a chance to make it up to you?"Catherine let out a bitter laugh and said, "Are you trying to claim credit for saving me from the fire? Ha, years ago, I saved your life too, didn’t I? We’re even. No one owes anyone."Her words infuriated Gabriel. He shot up and shouted, "You want to settle old debts, right? Three years ago, you took a bul
