After Gabriel stared at his phone screen for a few seconds, he accepted the call.A gentle lady's voice rang out a second after the call connected.“Gabriel, it's Pevita. Sorry to bother you,” Pevita said in a slightly hesitant tone.“You're not bothering me, Pevita. Why are you calling me?” Gabriel responded warmly.“I want to ask about the cooperation proposal my dad submitted to the Ashton family. Have you conveyed it to your master?” her words dripped with curiosity. “Sorry if I seem pushy, but I'm just asking,” she added as she chuckled slightly.Gabriel nodded slowly, though she couldn't see his gesture directly.“Yes, and Mr. Ashton is still considering the collaboration offer. I'll let you know the results once he's made a decision.”“Okay, Gabriel. Thank you so much.” Silence fell over their conversation for a few seconds, until Pevita's voice broke it.“Gabriel, tomorrow I’m going to Forire City. I forgot to tell you at the charity gala that I got an invitation from someone
Chapter 287
Diana shook her head, dismissing her brother's accusations. "No, he's not my boyfriend. I've told you many times, but why do you keep insisting? Please get out of here!"Patrick huffed. "What kind of male friend comes to your apartment? Do you think I'm dumb and don't understand all this?" His eyes darkened with anger. He pushed his sister aside, sending her head crashing into the wall and landing on the floor.Gabriel's eyes widened in deep worry as he watched Diana fall to the floor with a cut on her forehead."Diana!" He glared at Patrick.Diana hissed in pain as she held her forehead. She looked at blood in her palm, but her worry was bigger than her wound.Seeing her brother walking toward Gabriel, she quickly rose from her position.Patrick shoved his hand into his pants pocket, another one aimed the gun at Gabriel.Undettered, Gabriel showed a relaxed expression. He didn't raise his hands or plead with Patrick not to shoot him.His nonchalant attitude made Patrick frown. He won

As Gabriel and Diana got into the car, Gabriel quickly started the engine, and then they drove off.Diana glanced out the window to make sure Patrick wasn't following them. She breathed a sigh of relief. Her gaze shifted to Gabriel, an expression of guilt etched across her face.“Young master, I deeply apologize for what my brother did to you. I had no idea if he would find me there. We live in separate places, and once a week I visit him and give him money,” Diana explained.Gabriel nodded, understanding Diana's predicament. Instead of being angry with her, he felt concerned for her.“It's okay, Diana. Is he jobless? He's a grown man and shouldn't be relying on you like this. Not only does he rely on you, but he also controls you. He seems to be arranging for you to marry with someone rich,” Gabriel replied with deep concern.“He's a drug addict, and he won't stop. He doesn't have the ability to earn money, so I have no choice but to give him money.” Diana sighed heavily, feeling tir

Just as Diana was about to open her mouth to speak, Patrick suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Gabriel by the collar of his shirt, forcing him to stand up.Diana was startled to see the unexpected action of her brother toward her boss. She exclaimed in worry and anger.“Patrick, what are you doing? Get your hands off him! Patrick!”Patrick gritted his teeth and glared at Gabriel as his eyes darkened. “I’m warning you to stay away from my sister! I arranged for her to be with a rich man, and you better not get in the way of their relationship!” The threatening words escaped his lips.Diana pulled Patrick’s hand away to release his grip on Gabriel, but he slapped her back roughly.“Stay out of my way! I already have wonderful plans for your future. As a manager at a big company like The Dragon Lord Group, you shouldn’t be dating a loser like him!” Patrick exclaimed.“He’s not my boyfriend!” Diana retorted.“Then who is he?”“Get out of my sight!” Gabriel forcefully slapped Patrick's

Gabriel immediately went to his father's room. Upon arrival, he was greeted by the sight of his father looking at the items he had purchased at the auction gallery.Seeing Gabriel's arrival, Herbert's gaze shifted to him. "Son, I really want to know what's inside this book, but I can't open it."The young man stepped forward, approaching his father. He casually picked up the book and opened it.Seeing the book open, Herbert's eyes widened in disbelief. "How can you open that book? Are you a special person people are talking about?" His words dripped with curiosity.Gabriel shrugged his shoulders, letting out words. "I really don't know about that, Dad. There must be a reason why I can open it, but for now, I don't know exactly what that reason is."Herbert was about to look inside the book, his hand moving to touch it, but suddenly the book closed by itself.Both Gabriel and his father gasped, staring at each other with confused expressions.“What happened? Why did this book suddenly

Gabriel huffed, he was giving Thais an indifferent stare. "Well, I can't help you. I don't have the power to make someone lose their job. What happened to you was entirely your fault, and I was only trying to teach you to be a better person by pressuring you to apologize to that waitress."Thais's eyes widened in disbelief. Gabriel ignored him and walked out of the restaurant with the mayor and his daughter.Still frozen with resentment engulfing him, Thais's hands clenched tightly, and he felt like he wanted to vent his anger by punching something. But since he was in a restaurant, he had to control his temper; otherwise, he would just make his situation worse.Thais took a deep breath, though his anger still built up. He walked out of the restaurant before he could hear more whispers of the people who had been watching him.Gabriel had returned to his hotel room. As he landed on his back on the bed, his gaze fell on the book on the table. He actually wanted to get out of bed to read
