And just like that, the marriage of the second young master of the Sealey Family has been decided.
Gabi looked at the images in front of her. All of them were in the greatest resolution, something that she really love. "Who took these photos?" she asked Kasper.
"It was a lone paparazzo who accepted the task. He is known as Rabbit."
"Rabbit. I like that name. Give him some bonus. Thank him for his work. Twenty percent of the rate."
"Understood."
Now that Gabi already has photos of Harry and that actress, all she had to do now is wait and focus on increasing her troops. Right now, the Sealey family should have known that the person who tried to scheme against them was actually Alfons. She was able to successfully ruined the relationship between the two.
"Miss, the Sealey family has been asking when are you going to send Miss Aren to them."
"Not until I confirmed if she is pregnant." She answered. "Tell them I don't want to send her without knowing that she is perfectly fine. Psychologically, of course." While it was extremely cruel for her to involve a child in this matter, Gabi just wanted to make sure that the child was safe. If worse comes to worst, she was even prepared to prepare a new identity for this child.
After all, a child is innocent and he or she shouldn't pay for the sins of the parents.
It has been a few days now since that meeting ended and until now, Gabi still couldn't forget the Sealey Family's shameless words. They had been trying to emphasize that they were good people. Kindhearted and generous.
Just the thought of it made her laugh.
"Miss, the dress that you are going to wear later for Mr. Alfons graduation is already here. As well as Miss Tina for your hair and make-up."
"Ah, Tina." Gabi smiled. It had been a few months since their cooperation started and so far, everything was doing well. Right now, she already has three more branches of the salon in northern cities and two in southern cities. "Can you tell me that time of the graduation celebration again?" Gabi didn't attend the ceremony but decided to join the celebratory banquet instead. This was the same banquet where she got drunk in the past and was linked to Harry Sealey.
The only reason she wanted to join this celebration is because of the few people that she would meet tonight.
"It would start at six."
"Hmmm. Alright."
After a few hours, Gabi left the mansion wearing a white knee-length dress.
"Sister, I am glad that you were able to join us tonight." Alfons was wearing a black suit. He smiled at her as if he didn't just scheme against her a few days back. Gabi smiled in response before she roamed her gaze around the crowd of new graduates.
Alfons was at the top university in the country. It is not only expensive, but the standard of education is top-notch too. Because of this, the school had strict requirements for their graduating student. Usually, only the best of the best we're able to graduate from this school.
Becoming a graduate of this school would ensure someone a good job in the government and more business opportunities for a lot of people. After a round of introductions, Gabi was finally alone.
It was actually the same in the previous life.
Many people inside this school knew her name as Alfons' sister, the clingy sister. The only people who knew that she was from the Ren Family are the ones from other prominent families. Of course, Gabi never cared about any of this. Right now, she only has one goal. Meet some people that would help her in the future.
With a non-alcoholic beverage in hand, Gabi walked towards the terrace of the second-floor hall where the party was held. This party was held inside the school and the security is really tight because of people who joined were sons and daughters of ministers and ambassadors.
For a few seconds, she enjoyed the view of the circular fountain that was in the building's front. It has a Lion and a serpent on it, the logo of the school. Gabi couldn't help but wonder if that person that she was waiting for is already there. She looked left and right and sigh when she didn't see anyone else. Everyone seemed to be too busy socializing inside ah.
Earlier, Gabi already met a couple of people that she needed to meet for her goals. She just needed to meet the last one in this place. Or… it should be in this place, right? After all, this terrace is empty. This was a perfect venue for suc*de.
As if on cue, she heard someone's sobs.
She hid the smile on her face as she walked to the other side of the terrace and found a woman in red, crying. She was sitting on the floor as she hugged her knees. Because this part doesn't have the proper lighting, she couldn't really see the woman's face, but it was pretty obvious that she was crying.
"Are you alright?"
"Please leave me alone." The woman responded almost immediately as she turned her head away from Gabi.
"Here…" Instead of walking away, Gabi handed her a handkerchief. "Take it."
"Please leave me alone… "
"Sorry," Gabi said. "I can't do that." Saying nothing else, she put the handkerchief on the woman's knees and increased the distance between them. Seeing that she didn't leave, the woman started sobbing once again.
"Are you not going to take some photos of me like this? If you want to take it, no need to hide your phone. Just put it directly on my face. That would make it more obvious that it was me."
"Why would I take photos of you?"
Gabi's question was only met with silent sobs. "My name is Gabrielle Sutton, how about you?"
For a few seconds, the woman just sobbed without saying anything. Gabi added, "Do you want me to help you out of here?" Just as she expected, the woman turned towards her.
"You can do that?"
"Yes."
"I — I am called Felice Brent."
"Nice to meet you, Felice… come let me take you out of this place."
