Chapter 96 Showdown With The Devil.
“I’m going to send you a location and I want either you or that whore mother of his, to meet me there. Alone. If either of you tries to play smart and bring anyone else along, your son will suffer the consequences. Oh, and Gabriel, whatever your choice is going to be, I suggest you hurry up, after all, I’m not the most patient person. You should know this, right?” Angelina said and the last thing Gabriel heard before the line went dead was the sound of her laughter, which he once considered beautiful, sounding like that of the devil’s.
With the room once again falling into silence, Gabriel was left with his thoughts. They slowly began to spiral, picking up from where it had been left off minutes ago, cursing and blaming himself for the current situation.
At some point, he felt like laughing at his very on stupidity. Leonica had seen through the witch’s true color, heck, even a whole Megan, someone who wasn’t as involved in him and Leonica’s life as Anastasia, had seen through her facade.
Thinking back to the annual banquet, Gabriel seemed to now understand the reason why Megan had referred to Angelina the way she did. And along with that thought, came a sudden question.
Had Angelina always been this evil? Was that the reason why Grandmother had been against him marrying her? Was she the one who caused the complication to grandmother’s life support that day, as a way to take out the obstacle standing in her path?
Gabriel gritted his teeth at the cruel possibilities.
“... Gabriel!” The sound of Leonica’s voice once again snapped him out of this thoughts. “Jesus, I know your tensed about the situation right now, but can you please not ignore me. “
But he wasn’t ignoring her. “I’m sorry,” He said, not bothering to explain the reason behind his silence.
Leonica seemed to discard his apology as quickly as it come. “That aside, “ She began and Gabriel knew exactly where she was heading. He injected before she could continue.
“I’m not going to send the location to you once Angelina sends it, so it’s better you get your mind off it.”
“What?” Her voice questioned sharply.
