"Will you take my place?" asked Gabriel, slightly smiling at Cheyne. WhileCheyne was frowning with a confused look. He chuckled oddly for no reason, then got tensed in seconds."Alpha, huh? What are you talking about?" After some minutes of silence and confusion, Cheyne finally said something. Gabriel raised his smile bigger and then slightly chuckled."You know what I said,""No, I don't. You said an absurd idea." Cheyne cut his words abruptly. He got nervous suddenly and slightly thought that Gabriel could be drunk. Thus, he didn't drink any liquor."Haha, Cheyne. I won't say anything stupid or useless. Everything I said before was the truth, something that I want to speak for a long time." Gabriel still insisted on his willingness to the request. Yet, Cheyne kept shaking his head to reject."Do not say something like this in front of our people, Alpha. They're going to get upset." Cheyne slightly warned Gabriel. Gabriel pursed his lips and then nodded with a smile."Still, I need m
After breakfast, Eva tried to elude Gabriel's meeting. She felt incredibly nervous when getting close to him, especially when Cody started to get close to Gabriel."Mommy, can I ask something?" Cody startled Eva's reverie. Emilia was smiling towards Eva's anxiety. She already knew about Gabriel and Cody's breakfast experiment, which ran smoothly."Yes, sweetheart?""Why does the man want me to call him Daddy? Is he my dad?""Who do you mean?" Eva pretended to ask. Her heart was thumping, and it was so hard to hear Gabriel's request to Cody. She knew that it would happen, but she didn't mean it too soon."Hhm, he is the Alpha." Eva was stunned, then slightly put an odd chuckle."Uhm, What alpha?""He's a big man, Mommy." Eva nodded. Emilia was getting closer to speaking to Eva. She didn't want her best friend to keep stumbling on the same hard road with the same guy all the time."Eve, can we talk?" she murmured while signing Eva to move to the corner of the room. Eva followed Emilia w
A maid peeked and tried to eavesdrop on Eva and Gabriel's disputes in the dining room. Moreover, Eva and Gabriel obviously argue. The maid put more of her interest to pick more information. Hence, she couldn't clearly hear that Eva wanted to take Cody away and wouldn't allow Gabriel to be close to his son. The maid couldn't hear the whole talk, so she didn't know if Gabriel had admitted that Cody was his biological son."I'm not allowing you to get near Cody. From now on, don't take him anywhere or talk to him!" Eva strictly forbade Gabriel. Gabriel glared in disbelief. He hadn't even said any reason at all, and Eva had misunderstood him."Wait a minute! What do you mean by talking like this?" Gabriel shouted and glared. Eva doesn't like it any more. This time, he was sure that Gabriel would only be dangerous for Cody. Eva's hand swiftly grabbed Cody's hand and pulled him until he stood up from his chair. Cody has yet to speak; he's even more perplexed."I'm goi
"Alpha, what happened?" Bryan asked Gabriel, who was banging on the dining room door. Gabriel took a deep sigh and then shook his head."Eva is sulking and misunderstands me. She thought I was going to take Cody away from her!" Gabriel answered, then banged again to persuade Eva. "Baby, open the door! Listen to me first!"Bryan frowned as he heard something else from inside. He grabbed Gabriel's arm and stopped him from banging on the door."Alpha, I think your Luna is going to escape from the window!" Bryan half yelled, then ran out. Gabriel also fled from the side door.Meanwhile, Eva managed to open the window and then asked Cody to climb through it."Come on, Baby! We have to get out of here!" Eva helped Cody climb onto the window so he could jump out. Cody didn't understand his mother's act, yet he obeyed her. When he reached the edge of the window, Cody had to jump slightly and land on the grass. After she saw him safely on the ground, Eva cl
A maid came into Gabriel's room, bringing dinner for Eva. Now Gabriel punished Eva by locking her in his bedroom for her actions. Eva didn't want to cry. She didn't want to allow Gabriel to do whatever he wanted to torture her."This is your dinner, Miss," said the waiter who served Eva's meal. Eva only glanced briefly, then lowered her head gloomily. She only sat there, not wanting to say anything.The maid approached Eva slowly, trying to find an opportunity to speak."Miss, do you need anything else?" The main spoke slowly. Eva turned her head and stared at her expressionlessly. She wanted to understand what the maid meant. The maid came back closer and smiled."I know you want to get out of here; I can help you." The maid whispered again. Eva's eyes widened suddenly. She looked left and right as if making sure no one heard."What did you say?" Eva also muttered. The maid nodded reassuringly."I don't want you to be the next prey of Gabriel Xander's cruelty. I feel sorry for you, M
Gabriel held a small meeting with Cheyne and Ethan to discuss some issues on their project. After Xander Enterprise succeeded in seizing the entire Oddysey project from SK Corporation, Gabriel had to finalize the job well. If not, then the company's reputation will be very severely affected."We will complete this work before the end of the year. If we can hunt for time, Anderes will be very satisfied, and we can control this city effortlessly," said Cheyne, describing to his Alpha. Gabriel nodded in understanding. He was analyzing some charts and documents Eva had prepared during her Paris work. Therefore, Gabriel still requires Eva's assistance to become his secretary."I have a problem. I locked Eva in my room because she wanted to run away," Gabriel admitted suddenly. Cheyne and Ethan both turned and knitted their eyebrows in confusion."What happened? Are you guys fighting again?" Ethan asked back."How are you still bickering with each other? You two want to get married." Cheyne
The maid who took Eva out of Gabriel's mansion drove her to a restaurant. Eva frowned, not comprehending the situation. She turned quickly to the maid."You should get to the restaurant. Someone wants to see you," said the maid at the car's door. It was parked on the side of the street in front of the restaurant. Cody looked alternately at his mother and the maid who had brought them."What? But you said earlier you would take us to the airport." Eva raised her tone. Her heart was beating fast. Hence, she didn't let go of Cody at all."Forgive me. I was carrying out orders." The main coldly replied. She didn't care and quickly got to the car, leaving Eva confused. Eva instantly widened her eyes in disbelief."What? Hey, wait!" Eva was shocked and wanted to chase after the car. She let go of Cody's hand and ran after the car."Wait, don't leave me! Wait!" Eva shouted, but it was of no use. She was on the side of the road in front of a restaurant. Ev
"How are you, Eva? Long time we don't see each other." Jasper started their talk after the dessert was served on the table. Cody was overjoyed to eat a delicious ice cream cake. He enjoyed it with great happiness and did not know that his mother was having difficulties because she was dealing with Jasper Kent."I'm fine, Jasper," Eva replied expressionlessly. She was worried that Jasper would hurt her and Cody now. Jasper still gazed at Eva without blinking. He glanced at Cody for a second and still didn't smile."Why are you doing this?" Jasper spoke with a low grit in his tone."What do you mean?" Eva asked back, even though she could already feel what Jasper meant."Why did you deceive me?" Eva gasped at the words Jasper said. Her heart was beating faster, and she was getting more nervous. Eva tried to calm down to think better. She must feel the way out soon."I didn't deceive you." Jasper turned his head the other way with a snort. Eva felt increasingly uncomfortable. Jasper shou
