Chapter 451 You're the Best

As Gabriella was thinking about how to break the news to Henry, his call came through. "Hello, Henry?" "Have you eaten?" he asked. "I just did."Henry's deep and magnetic voice came through the phone, accompanied by faint keyboard sounds. He seemed to be working overtime. "Gabby, you're done with your work, right? When are you coming back?"Henry's photos were finalized a few hours ago, and he had given the go-ahead. The magazine office had proceeded to use them for the layout. Gabriella paused and pursed her lips. She dodged his question. "Is Lise still at the old villa?"Henry's hands paused on the keyboard when he realized she was changing the subject blatantly. Feeling something was up, he pressed his lips together and asked, "I've brought her over. When's your flight? I'll pick you up… Don't tell me you're not coming back."Knowing she couldn't avoid the question anymore, Gabriella sighed and confessed, "I really… can't make it." Her voice faded away. Henry's voice bec

Chapter 452 Popular Among Her Friends

Henry clearly saw through Elaine's thoughts. She wanted to get close to him, but her pride held her back. Her face darkened just like the last time he mocked her. She could only beat around the bush, which made things awkward. The last time Henry encountered such behavior was back in high school. A girl made excuses to give him breakfast. After he refused it, her face turned red with anger. She snatched back the breakfast and said fiercely, "Suit yourself. I don't want to give it to you anyway."The girl returned to her seat in frustration. During recess, she approached him again with a pen and asked, "Hey, is this your pen? I found it on the floor."It was obvious that Elaine had been pampered by her family. She was still a child in Henry's eyes, and he couldn't care less about her. "Of course, it's for something important," he replied. His short response infuriated Elaine. She wanted to ask more questions and extend their conversation, but she worried he would accuse her of b

Chapter 453 Love Rival Keep Popping Up

Ariel followed Elaine's gaze and saw her staring at Felise. She explained, "That's the child of the chairman of Toussaint Holdings. She's exceptionally clever and sensible. You wouldn't believe how easy it is to manage her."Ariel showered Felise with praise. There were also a few children in the kindergarten with influential family backgrounds. But they either didn't know anything or had bad tempers, often crying for no reason. Felise transferred to the kindergarten midway through the school year. Usually, students who transferred in didn't do well in their previous schools. Ariel braced herself for a troublemaker and was ready for the complaints from the intermediate class teachers.Surprisingly, every teacher liked her and praised her in every class meeting. Moreover, Felise was polite and greeted Ariel every time she saw her. Just like now, Felise didn't go to play with anyone. Instead, she noticed Ariel and walked over to greet her, "Hello, Ms. Bateman."Her innocent and ge

Chapter 454 Smart Move

Noticing his doubt, Elaine hurriedly explained, "Fay used to work at Colson Photography Studio. I went there for a photo shoot, and she was in charge of it."She continued, "I never thought she'd steal my necklace during the shoot, and the studio had fired her. If you don't believe me, you can ask the studio's owner!"Henry looked at her indifferently and didn't say anything. Elaine added, "I was shocked when I saw you with Fay at the restaurant that day because I knew her true colors. She's just using you for your money. Don't let her fool you!"Henry didn't buy her words. He believed that no one knew Gabriella better than he did. He sneered, "Is that what you call helping me? Do you know that Fay donated all her assets to establish a foundation?"Elaine was desperate when she saw him defending Gabriella. "You and Mr. Albert gave her the assets, didn't you? They were not her properties in the first place. She donated them to gain a reputation and your trust. Isn't it a smart m

Chapter 455 Terminate the Contract

Henry didn't reply to her. Elaine lifted her head and saw him looking elsewhere. Following his gaze, she saw a young woman's figure. The woman turned around the corner and disappeared. Henry then withdrew his gaze and looked up at Elaine. "Lise doesn't need your gift. From now on, don't show up in front of us again!"Elaine's face paled. It was the first time she had been rejected like this! Biting her lip, she retorted, "You think I want to see you? I wouldn't have come if your aunt didn't ask me to visit Grandma Aster and Lise. I came with good intentions, only to be humiliated by you!'Henry asked, "So what? Why don't you leave already?"Elaine fell speechless. Glaring at him, she turned on her heel and strode away. She could tell that Henry hesitated at first when she volunteered to help watch over Felise in the restroom. However, he changed his mind when a young woman passed by and coldly told her to leave. Elaine wondered who that woman was. Henry knew her, and that wo

Chapter 456 My Child

"No matter her intentions, I won't let her succeed!" Henry said righteously. Gabriella chuckled. "I am glad you know what to do." Henry breathed a sigh of relief when he realized he had passed the test. "Gabby, you know her, don't you?" There was a note of confidence in his tone. Gabriella didn't deny it. "From what you've said, it seems that she's mentioned me to you before. What did she say to you?" "I won't believe anything that she says to me."Gabriella raised her eyebrows. "Henry, you're so quick on the uptake now that it amazes me." Henry laughed and changed the subject. "When are you coming back?""Soon." Before she returned home, Gabriella invited Bella, Pete, and the others out for dinner. She told them that she would be back when she got the chance. … At 8:20 am, Layla walked into the office area. She saw from afar that there was a cup of coffee on her table, as well as a takeout box next to it. When she opened it, there were five sausages, salad, two san

Chapter 457 Office Romance

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

Chapter 458 Afraid I Will Escape

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

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

Chapter 460 Relax

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
