“Why did you stop me?” Gabriel asked Maria as he moved the gun away from Dave The Devil's head. At that moment, Dave The Devil could breathe a sigh of relief, certain that Maria had come to his defense. “We can’t kill this devil now, because there’s still one more thing left unsolved,” she stated. “What’s that?” Gabriel frowned, as did everyone else. The glimmer of hope on Dave the Devil’s face that Maria might still care about him vanished. The lady paid him no mind. “We have to ask him to give us the code to a secret room, which only he knows. He keeps a lot of money, gold, and other treasures there,” she explained. Gabriel’s cold gaze returned to Dave The Devil. He pointed the gun at him, making the mafia’s breath hitch. “You have no one to defend you, and you can’t fight me back! Show me the code to that room or you will lose your life now!” Gabriel threatened. With a resigned and trembling voice, Dave The Devil nodded faintly. "Yes, yes, I will show you the code to the roo

Maria chuckled, she replied in a nonchalant tone, not thinking that Gabriel was talking about something serious. "You are such a funny person, Gabriel. You must be a mafia, and Dave The Devil is your friend, I know that." Her words were tinged in sarcasm."And by the way, how old are you?" Gabriel asked in a serious tone. He glanced at Maria.“I'm 19 years old,” Maria answered.“That's the age you should be studying at university,” Gabriel stated. His words tinged with deep concern."Forget about that, Gabriel. The only thing on my mind now is how to survive. I have to find a job as soon as possible. But I don't know where I can start. I don't have anything. I don't have money, I don't have a house, and even I don't have a phone. This is the only clothes I have, and this jacket is even Joseph's." Her words were clearly sad, but she still chuckled to ward off her sadness.Gabriel actually wanted to reveal his identity as he wanted to offer Maria the opportunity to pay for her college t

Gabriel glanced at Mrs. Parr as he let out a grin. “Did you hear that? She said it was a joke! She thought I wouldn’t be able to report her to you.” He continued talking to someone on the phone.Mrs. Parr crossed her arms over her stomach as she furrowed her brows. She wondered who Gabriel was talking to, but a few seconds later she acted indifferent.Gabriel had finished talking as he held the phone away from his ear. Glancing at Mrs. Parr, he snorted. “You can’t go home now. Wait and see. Someone will come and tell you good news.” He let out a small chuckle.His words caused Mrs. Parr’s rage to escalate. “Don’t hear his nonsense! Hurry up and clean up this boutique and close it! Pay no attention to those two crazy people. Once you’re done cleaning everything up, I’ll call security to have them dragged out if they insist on staying here,” she ordered firmly.A saleslady standing near Maria looked at her with a confused look. Maria knew that as salesladies, they had to obey their boss

One of the three students handed Barbara a newspaper. Barbara read it together with Penelope.Their eyes widened as they glanced at each other.“How could he do that?” Barbara stated.“It feels so delusional, but it’s real, though,” she added, still murmuring.“We better not mess up with Gabriel, he’s no joke,” Penelope replied. After she’d been helped by Gabriel that time, Penelope’s view of Gabriel had completely changed. Although she was still Fiona Laurent’s gang, Penelope no longer belittled and insulted Gabriel.“Does Fiona know about this?” Barbara frowned, staring at Penelope.As they turned their gazes toward the gate, they saw a luxury car stopped there. From inside, a young lady with long legs and a miniskirt alighted from the vehicle. The lady was none other than Fiona. She was being driven to campus by her boyfriend, Alexis.“Hey, it’s Fiona!” Penelope spoke.“Yeah, we have to tell her!”Barbara and Penelope waved, making Fiona's gaze catch her friends. Fiona returned the

“And I can’t believe you trust him more than me? I’m Alexis Blaise, and that guy? He’s just a random person!” Alexis spoke to the saleslady, belittling Gabriel.Hearing Alexis’s arrogant words, Gabriel huffed. The man had no idea Gabriel could decide his fate, just as the same as what Gabriel had done to his company before. The saleslady saw both of them as equal potential buyers. Although Alexis had insulted Gabriel, the saleslady saw Gabriel as someone more than a random person.She paused for a moment, looked at both of them in turn, and then spoke politely.“Sorry, but I have such good news for you two. One of you can take this phone, and the other can buy the exact same type of phone next week because we’ll have another of these phones in stock next week. There’s only one for next week, but I’ll make sure you will get it,” she explained.Alexis huffed, his voice filled with arrogance. “Okay, fair enough, then you can give him the chance next week. As for the current phone, this
