Chapter 391 Give Him a Chance

"Don't worry, I'll close my eyes. I won't look, and you can get changed yourself," Henry said.He could tell that she felt unsafe and wanted him to stay with her. She just didn't want to admit it.Gabriella stood aside and closed the door after he went in. She turned to look at him. "Turn around and close your eyes."Henry did as she said. Normally he would probably tease her, but right now letting her get a checkup was the most important thing.After she had changed into the hospital gown, the nurse brought her to get checked. While they were waiting for the results in the hospital room, Henry asked gently, "Are you hungry? What do you want to eat? I'll go buy some for you."Gabriella lowered her head and played with her fingers. She tried to act casually as she said, "Can you tell the driver to go and buy it? I just want some soup and toast.""Okay, I'll send him." Henry looked at the top of her head, feeling his heart aching for her.She had never relied on him as much as

After interrogating Nick, the police captain gained a rough understanding of Luke's character. With confidence, he hypothesized that if the trailing officers weren't too close, Luke might release the hostage for a ransom before attempting to escape.Once he received approval from higher-ups, the captain initiated the deployment of a strategic plan. The Florin police would continue their pursuit but maintain a cautious distance. Using Luke's escape route as a guide, they roughly pinpointed the buyer's location and coordinated with local forces to tighten the net.Once Luke had sold off the hostage, some officers were poised for a rescue mission, while others kept a vigilant watch on the surroundings.

Chapter 393 In Custody

Unexpectedly, it was Jacob who answered the call. "Sorry, Ms. Carrington, Mr. Henry's tied up in a meeting. If you have anything, you can tell me, and I'll pass it on to Mr. Henry after the meeting.""I … it's nothing urgent. Let Henry do his thing. I'll hang up."The faint beep of the call ending was accompanied by Jacob looking at Henry behind the desk."What did she say?" Henry asked, lowering his gaze."Ms. Carrington didn't say anything. She just asked you to continue with your work," Jacob said, a hint of sympathy in his eyes.Henry pursed his lips, figuring she was probably scared of being alone at home. He picked up his phone and dialed Maria's number.Hanging up, Gabriella let out a sigh. She almost overlooked the fact that Henry held the position of chairman at Toussaint Holdings. With his hands full of business matters, he couldn't revolve around her all the time.As thoughts of work surfaced, Gabriella recalled she had a few photos waiting for edits. Retrieving her l

Chapter 395 Your Retribution Is Here

"I reported it." The bystander voluntarily stepped forth and said, "They were impersonating the police …" "Impersonating your ass!"The older police officer got up from the ground and cuffed the burly man, unable to hold back his curses.Then, he took out his police badge. "We are from Bluebay District, here on a mission. The suspect is too cunning, and some people …"He deliberately glanced at the bystander before continuing, "Some people were bothersome, which caused the suspect to escape. We need to track her down immediately."The newly arrived chief police officer looked at the credentials presented to him and then said to the bystander, "His credentials are fine. Anything else?"The bystander was stunned. "They are … fine?"The police officers no longer entertained him. "The suspect hasn't gone far. Please assist us.""Okay."After that, several police officers hurried toward the direction Yasmine had fled.Before leaving, the young police officer sniped at the bystan

Chapter 396 Wicked

After leaving the police station, Gabriella received a call from Toussaint Residence.Aster's voice was filled with concern as she said, "Gabby? Why didn't you tell me what happened two days ago? I just found out that you almost didn't make it back! Have we grown distant?" Gabriella quickly replied, "No, Grandma, how could that be? I just didn't want you to worry. Look, I'm fine now, aren't I?""Oh, I'm not as fragile as you all think. Your brother's matters were kept from me, and now yours too. I'm getting left out by everyone!""You're not, Grandma. It's my fault this time. If anything happens in the future, I'll tell you before anyone else.""You're just saying that to make me happy. Oh ... Earlier, someone from the Caddel family called, saying they'll come to apologize tomorrow. That's how I just found out that you were almost trafficked. So, Arthur's second wife is your mother, and the person who tried to traffick you is your cousin? How wicked. I wanted to ask for your opin

Chapter 397 Henry Being Cold

In the evening, Shawn returned home for dinner.There were four hush puppies on a plate on the table. Thinking that the housekeeper made them, he casually picked one up with a fork, gobbled it up, and grabbed another one."These hush puppies are pretty good."Meredith wore a proud smile on her face."They're nice, huh?" she asked."Mhm. Did you make them, Mom?""No, one of our tenants made them. If you like them, I'll ask her to make you more some other time.""It's fine," Shawn uttered a refusal. He might have liked the food, but it wasn't to the point where he wanted to trouble the tenant."No need to hold back. It's not like I forced her to make these. She's a great girl. She's always so enthusiastic when she sees me. She was the one who gave us the sweet potatoes the other day."It would be great if I had a daughter like her."Those words put a frown on Shawn's face.That tenant must be getting impatient, and she was deliberately trying to suck up to Meredith after knowi

"Ms. Carrington?"After the call was connected, Jacob asked, "Is there something you need from me?"Gabriella replied, "I'm here for Henry. Please come down to get me."Jacob said, "Oh … Mr. Henry is currently not in the company, Ms. Carrington. Do you … want to come over another day instead?"A hint of surprise flashed in Gabriella's eyes.The receptionist had just said that Henry was in the company."If that was the case … I don't have the time to come again since I'm busy over the next two days. I brought something for him, you can come and get it from me to pass it to him," Gabriella said.Jacob replied, "... Alright. Please wait for me."After about five minutes, Jacob walked out of the elevator and looked around.He then walked toward Gabriella and asked, "What do you want me to pass to Mr. Henry, Ms. Carrington?""This," Gabriella said as she pointed at her chest."What?""It's me."Jacob was speechless.Gabriella said, "Bring me up. I could wait for him if he was

Chapter 399 She Gets Deceived by Him Again

Henry raised his brow as if he had just heard a joke.He said, "Lying to you? Why would I lie to you? What good would it do for me to lie to you? You really think you're all important now, Gabriella?"Gabriella asked, "... Are you compelled to do that for some reason?"Henry replied, "What reasons could I possibly have? Are you still in denial of the fact that I never liked you, Gabriella?"I did not like you when you first arrived at the Toussaint Residence. I did not like you when we got married. So what makes you think that I would like you now?"Gabriella shook her head as if eagerly trying to prove something.She said, "You started following me from the time I went to travel after we divorced. You helped me find my wallet back, and in Aupuernea you even …"Henry interrupted her words with a laugh before saying, "The bet had already started since then. You hated me so much then and drove me away countless times."I would've stayed away from you if I really liked you, and no
