Was she playing with his emotions once more?Not long after, Henry heard her steady breathing beside him. He fell silent.Lying next to her, he felt uncomfortable and couldn't fall asleep.

Chapter 72 Goal Achieved

Hannah gazed at Gabriella with anticipation.Gabriella's already strong disgust for Hannah deepened when she heard Henry's words, nearly making her feel nauseated.Gabriella couldn't help but recall his claim that Hannah was kind and tried to make amends. Gabriella found that assertion somewhat absurd, as characterizing Hannah as "kind" seemed like an affront to the very word.Noticing Gabriella's silence, Hannah continued, "Gabby, I know you're still upset with me ... If you don't want it, just give it back to me. I'll throw it away." With these words, she attempted to take the paper bag from Gabriella's hand."Alright, I'll take it. You can go ahead for your rehearsal," Gabriella responded calmly. She was aware of the presence of not only Henry but also other staff and surveillance cameras nearby. Refusing to accept it might easily escalate into a problematic situation. After all, there was always a risk of surveillance footage being posted online the next day, accusing her of

Chapter 73 You Guess, I Draw

The host announced excitedly, "We're really lucky today. We drew Mr. Henry in just one draw. Please welcome him to the stage."The media captured the moment with their camera, and flashlights kept flashing.At that moment, the live comments exploded with reactions. A comment from a viewer added, "Seems staged."Another said, "Is this all planned?"A third viewer chimed in, "At least we've got an interesting show to watch."Henry stood up and went on stage."Before the interactive session begins, let's first have a brief interview. Mr. Toussaint. Do you know what the first interactive game tonight is?""I don't know." Henry shook his head. He genuinely had no prior knowledge of the game.The Toussaint Holdings had diverse interests in various industries with many subsidiary brands. Henry often participated in such events and was used to it. He usually delivered a speech on stage and then left without inquiring about the event's programs."Then, you should know that you'll be

Chapter 74 Rekindled

"Fuck! Are they going to create a scene?" someone from the viewer remarked.The camera focused on Henry's face. It captured his calm demeanor and the deep, inscrutable look in his eyes.Amidst the watchful crowd, he stepped onto the stage and stood beside Hannah. He was noticeably a head taller than her, even when she was wearing high heels.At that moment, the media furiously snapped pictures of the pair. The director, too, kept the camera focused on them. Occasionally, the director directed the camera toward Gabriella, who was seated in the audience.With a cheerful smile, the host asked, "Now, I need to ask a question on behalf of our audience, Ms. Hannah. You mentioned earlier that you first met Ms. Carrington when she was 16. Can you tell us where the two of you first met?"This question was received through her earpiece.Hannah pursed her lips and exchanged a glance with Henry in response to the question.The host continued, "Since Ms. Hannah is unwilling to answer, she ca

Chapter 75 Positively Portrayed

Could Hannah's so-called illness be connected to all of this?"I can't get over it. I can't get over it." With heart-wrenching tears, Hannah cried. "Every time I closed my eyes, I remembered the scene back then. I couldn't forget it. I was calling your name, hoping you would come and save me ..."Henry remained silent.At that moment, Gabriella, standing in the corner, didn't approach them.Suddenly, there was a loud "bang", and the car door muffled the crying.Gabriella, who had been blowing on her hands, stiffened slightly and glanced outside. A black Porsche Cayenne was driving out of the underground parking garage.Glancing at her phone screen, she let out a deep sigh and felt a sense of closure in her heart. She had already anticipated that Henry would yield to Hannah. After all, she had no hope for him. So, she didn't feel disappointed in her heart, but rather, let down and sad.It was as expected. Though she loved him, she dared not have any expectations anymore.In the

Chapter 76 Never Been Afraid

"You did well at the press conference today," Henry praised through gritted teeth.Gabriella sat up straighter in her seat as she explained, "My apologies. It was all for the good of MQ. I thought it would be good to use the attention that the both of you already have to promote MQ.""What else do you have to apologize for?" Henry asked mildly."You're not the usual celebrity, so I shouldn't have arranged those games for you," Gabriella continued."What else?" What else was there?Gabriella racked her brains but could not think of anything else that she did wrong.In the end, she simply blinked as she watched Henry silently, hoping that he would tell her what she did wrong.Henry scoffed incredulously. "Why did you arrange a game between me and Hannah?""Did you not enjoy it?" Gabriella asked curiously.Henry's expression darkened. This wasn't a matter of whether or not he enjoyed it."The both of you have a lot of fans that ship you together. The both of you can only rise

I Wasn't Looking At You

William texted the group chat and informed everyone to gather at the main entrance of the office after work tomorrow.The company had booked buses to shuttle all of them to the resort, but because there were over 40 employees across the three departments, there were two buses.The next day, the employees came to work with their bags packed with clothes and toiletries. Once it was time to get off work, the employees all walked out together in high spirits for their upcoming trip to the hot spring resort.By the time Gabriella arrived at the meeting point, there were already a few employees waiting on the bus. She held on tighter to her bag as she walked straight to the back of the bus and took a seat.The employees slowly started to enter after her, and soon the bus was full."Ms. Carrington, can I take a seat here?" A man's voice came from in front of her. Gabriella raised her head to look at him and nodded slightly before she said, "Sure.""Thanks.""No problem."Gabriella

She Was Still Going to Annoy Her

Her entire body felt like jelly, and she leaned onto his chest as he moved his hand. Her face flushed red, and she started to pant as well.Henry retracted his hand when he felt her shiver in his arms."How is it? Do you feel relaxed now?" he asked smugly.Gabriella laid in his arms without moving and simply hummed in response.Henry then picked her up slightly to place her on his lap.Gabriella could tell what he wanted to do and panicked. "No … No way…" she stammered.She wouldn't be able to handle it if he fucked her right now."Yes, we can. You don't have work tomorrow," Henry insisted.He had been celibate for two months now. For the past few days, he had pleasured her without getting any reprieve of his own.Gabriella didn't have the strength to fight him off. But just then, someone knocked on the door.Gabriella breathed a sigh of relief and shoved his body slightly. "Go open the door," she urged.Henry shut his eyes in annoyance before he muttered a curse under his b

I Choose Truth

The next day, Gabriella and a few of her colleagues went sightseeing around the resort and took many pictures.At 12:30 pm, all the employees spread out across three tables and enjoyed a barbeque lunch.The female employees sat at one table and opened bottles of juice while the male employees took up the other two tables and cracked open bottles of beer.The atmosphere was lively, and some of the bolder employees who were tipsy even made jokes at Henry's expense.Even as the employees joked around him, Henry only smiled in response, so the atmosphere was relaxed.After lunch, someone suggested playing a game to the delight of everyone."Sure! What should we play?" someone asked."Let's just play a simple game of spin the bottle!" another person suggested as they placed a bottle in the middle of the table. "Whoever the bottle lands on has to choose between truth or dare!" the person explained.The employees all roared in agreement at that. "Sure!"Since Henry was around, no o

You Missed Half an Inch

Gabriella cleared her throat awkwardly under the watchful eye of the crowd and replied, "Around seven inches.""That long? Are you serious?" the crowd exclaimed.Gabriella ignored them and spun the bottle. She had wanted to just ask a random question to the next person chosen, but the bottle landed on Henry once again.Her eyes widened as she met his narrowed ones."Mr. Toussaint, truth or dare?" Gabriella asked."Truth."Under different circumstances, Gabriella really wanted to ask him if he ever loved her, but she couldn't do that now. The crowd was going wild and throwing suggestions to Gabriella on what she could ask Henry.There was one who suggested asking how long Henry was down there, and another suggested asking Henry how old he was when he lost his virginity.There was also someone who suggested asking him how many women he had slept with.Gabriella didn't need to know Henry's length, and she had no interest in knowing how many women he had been with or how old he
