Chapter 502: Movement against the heart

-Hello," Mariana greeted as she pushed open the door.

At that moment, Gabriel had already left the work in her hands and was waiting for the woman's arrival. Only after Mariana entered, Gabriel put out the cigarette he had in his hand and watched her. She was better than he could have imagined.

-Are you Mariana? -Gabriel asked.

Mariana's gaze turned away from the smoking ashtray and looked at the man in front of her.

-Hi, Gabriel," she replied softly.

She didn't know Gabriel well, but it was still necessary to have proper etiquette.

Gabriel looked at the woman with some admiration.

-Why are you looking for me?

Mariana was about the same age as her daughter and had heard all the bad words in Emily's mouth. His daughter had described this woman as unpleasant, but he hadn't expected the other party to be such a beauty.

-Why did you set me up behind my back? -Mariana said bluntly.

She had come to seek justice for herself, and she wanted to know what Gabriel was after. If it was for Emily, then that threat shouldn't exist either because she had already abandoned Leopoldo. Gabriel hadn't expected Mariana to speak so bluntly and glared at her.

-What do you think?

-I don't understand.

Mariana really didn't understand. If she had understood, she wouldn't have stood up in front of Gabriel with such direct words.

Gabriel took a sip of tea and looked at her.

-You hit my daughter.

He also held a grudge against Mariana for this incident, but regardless of whether it was her or not, Gabriel would not forgive anyone who bullied his daughter.

-Why don't you ask why I hit her? -Mariana asked indifferently.

People used to say it's the father's fault if the child doesn't have a good upbringing.

Seeing Gabriel's appearance, Mariana had really understood the truth of this statement. Having a father like that, it was no wonder Emily didn't care about the seriousness of his words. Mariana felt pathetic as she looked at the man.

"Will children who grow up in such a family know what happiness and suffering are like later in life?"

-Whatever the reason, do you have the right to hit my daughter?

Gabriel was furious and looked at her with a ball of anger in his eyes. He could discipline his children himself.

Mariana should just mind her own business.

-Okay, I apologize about hitting her. I'm sorry," Mariana said softly.

It wasn't hard for her to apologize, but Gabriel did something much more serious.

-You're sorry and that's it?

Gabriel felt amused, Mariana was too good at being superficial. She had hit her own daughter and wanted to settle things so lightly.

This trick would work with others, but it would never work with him.

-So what do you want? You've already made me pay for it," Mariana looked at the man, burning with anger.

Gabriel had already gone too far for slapping Emily, what else did Mariana want him to do?

-Not enough.

He had only sent someone to cause a spectacle to give Mariana's store a bad reputation. That wasn't a fundamental punishment for her, nor would it be enough. -Can't we each take a step back?

Mariana realized that the man ahead of her was a bit more difficult to deal with than she had imagined.

Or rather, Gabriel was shrewd.

-Yes, you might consider granting me a request," Gabriel said as his eyes rested on her.

As soon as he finished his words, Mariana sensed something was wrong.

"What does this man want?"

Men were lustful and Gabriel would not ask for an ordinary request.

-I hear you're single," Gabriel looked at the woman with a growing longing.

Mariana used to be Leopoldo's wife and since his daughter was pursuing Leopoldo, she was his greatest obstacle. If that was the case, he had better intervene.

Mariana looked at him and shook her head.

-You're dreaming.

She wouldn't be with such an old man even if she had to go begging in the streets. Just listening to the words coming out of the other party's mouth, Mariana felt very disgusted and wanted to vomit. "How can anyone be so disgusting?"

-Isn't it an honor that a woman like you, with a son, is still in my sights? -Gabriel looked at the woman and kept talking.

Mariana watched as the man slowly approached her.

-What do you want to do?

An unprecedented fire was lit in Gabriel's eyes as he gazed at the woman's exquisite figure, awakening an insane desire within him.

But the next moment, a slap hit him hard in the face.

Gabriel looked at her in utter disbelief. He couldn't believe she had the guts to hit him.

-How shameless! -Mariana scolded fiercely and gave him an ungracious look.

Originally, she had come to give Gabriel a chance to reform, but it all ended this way.

Gabriel looked at her in astonishment.

-How dare you hit me?

Mariana didn't want to say anything to him, she just wanted to get out of this place quickly. Anyway, it was a waste of time to continue in that place, so she chose to leave.

But when you hit someone, it wasn't so easy for the victim to leave you.

-Stop right there! -Gabriel touched the corners of his lips and his eyes were implacable.

It had been a long time since he had seen a woman with so much guts, especially since Mariana's appearance was also to his liking. He didn't mind having her in his arms. Mariana looked at the hand of the man holding her tightly and her eyes filled with disgust.

-Let go of me!

She detested those men, just a greasy look from them made her feel sick. No matter how much she fell, she would never want to be pampered by such a man. Mariana put up a lot of resistance.

But in this situation, victory was not in her hands. Although Gabriel was old, he was still a man, so no matter how much Mariana used all her strength, she could not break free. -Weren't you arrogant enough a moment ago? Why are you starting to freak out now? -Gabriel said viciously.
