All Chapters of A Night with Gideon: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

"I… I just want to see Gideon." Mariz’s voice was weak and polite. The woman looked up, her eyes welling up, before she wiped the corner of her eye with a finger. Lyzza sighed because she didn't know if she could call herself inconsiderate, as her actions seemed more like theatrics to her. "I just want to thank him for what he did last night." She nodded and finally opened the door wide. "Come in." The woman was momentarily surprised, but seconds later, her expression turned pitiful again. Lyzza led the way to the long couch in the living room. "You can have a seat. I'll just call him." "Sure. I just want to thank him for what he did last night. I'm glad he still thinks of our past relationship, that's why he did it." If someone else had heard Mariz, they would have interpreted her words differently. Mariz was bringing up her past relationship with Gideon. If Gideon hadn't mentioned his ex-wife’s situation right away, her thoughts might be different.She left the woman who was

GIDEON’S promise to meet them at the mansion wasn't fulfilled. Lyzza already expected it, but Summer was silent when she discovered they were the only two going to her mom’s house."Mommy, is it bad to break a promise?" Summer asked with her innocent voice while they were on the road.She stroked her hair and adjusted the way Summer sat on her lap. "It depends. Why do you ask?""I don't understand.""Well, baby, there are promises that aren't fulfilled unintentionally. For example, let's say your Uncle Caius promised to buy you stickers but couldn't keep them because he had to buy something for a school project. Or, for instance, I promised you we'd go to the mall, but I had an emergency.""That's understandable," Summer replied, but she still seemed sad."Yes. Of course, we still have to be careful when we make promises. If you can do it, then you should. The word "promise" is used to assure you'll do what you said. "Summer did not say anything, so she asked again, "Why, baby? Is th

A WEEK had passed since Mariz stayed with them under the same roof. Gideon told her that his ex-wife had no choice because she had nowhere to go. Furthermore, Mariz was also in danger because her former live-in partner, Ricky, had escaped prison and was now pursuing her. Mariz was pregnant, and the baby could be in danger if Ricky found and hurt her again.Lyzza didn't know if she should laugh at their situation because the woman who first married Gideon was now staying with them along with their child, Summer. The woman was very assertive and made it clear to her and Summer that they were just guests in the house, which was supposedly her house. It was Gideon and Mariz's house when they were still married, but Lyzza didn't want to know to whom it belonged now, in case it made her feel worse about her husband.When she suggested to Gideon that they could move to the penthouse, he disagreed. He told her he needed to stay in that house because of Mariz and that he wanted to be with Summ

HER eyes widened in shock at what she heard. Why would Mariz want to kill her former live-in partner? "What's wrong, and who are these stupid people who took him? The police won't side with him because he has a previous case. Have you contacted the one who has his family?" She was momentarily quiet while listening to the person she was speaking to. "Bitch! Even his family was kidnapped? Who are these people interfering with us? Gideon should not be able to find a loophole in this. I'm close to getting him back!" She quickly and silently climbed up the stairs just as Mariz was about to look in her direction. Only then did Lyzza realize she had been holding her breath since she arrived in the room. From what she heard, she felt as if she had witnessed a crime. Mariz seemed to be crazy. The woman seemed to have a huge grudge against her former live-in partner and wanted to kill him. They were in danger with that woman! It was good that she and Summer were leaving that house already.

"LYZZA!" Someone yelled as he grabbed her arm, until she heard the honk of a car. That honk jolted her back to reality. She saw herself standing by the side of the road while a man inside a car was looking at her with a stern gaze."Hey, if you're going to kill yourself, don't get me involved!" The man shouted angrily before driving away."Are you okay?" The voice she had been hearing asked.She looked over to see David worriedly looking at her, examining her from head to toe to see if she needed medical attention. After seeing that she had no injuries, he looked back at her eyes again."What are you doing? You aren’t trying to kill yourself, are you?" He took a deep breath and let go of her arm, putting both of his hands on his hips. "I saw you come out of the elevator earlier. I accompanied Mom for her checkup. I'm glad I followed you because if I hadn't, you might have been hit by a car.""T-thank you," she said, her voice shaking."Why are you crying?" He shook his head and grabbe
