Chapter 813: He's Not Happy

Gabrielle finished eating and put down the fork. She looked up and realized Ivan hadn't gone. She sniffed and asked, "Ivan, why haven't you gone?"

Ivan was still sighing in his mind and was surprised by Gabrielle's question. He hesitated for a second and said, "Mr. Oliver asked me to see you off..."

Gabrielle said, "I'm not a child. Evan and Avery are here. You can go." Gabrielle's eyes were red. She hurried to look away and waved like she didn't care.

Ivan stood there and shook his head. Jackson gave him the order, and he would not dare to defy.

Jackson probably left because he was afraid to see Gabrielle crying." Gabrielle's eyes were red.

No one knew when Gabrielle and Jackson see each other again.

Although both were in A Country, Ivan only hoped Gabrielle kept shooting films, and Jackson could read about her on the news.

But it would be hard if Gabrielle wanted to see Jackson.

Gabrielle said, "Forget it. You can go after I leave." Ivan was too loyal to defy Jackson's direct order.

Ivan didn't respond. Even if it wasn't for Jackson's sake, he had to see Gabrielle off since they were friends. But Jackson had something he asked Ivan to give Gabrielle. Ivan has been hesitating to wonder when to give it to her.

Ivan was in a pickle.

Ivan looked up at Gabrielle with hesitation. She was about to get up and leave.

Ivan said, "Miss Gabrielle..."

Gabrielle turned around. Her eyes were as crystal as the sky after rain.

She looked down, and Ivan was holding a white envelope. It was supposed to be for her.

Gabrielle didn't take it. She forced a smile, saying, "Do I have to?"

Ivan was silent.

Gabrielle said, "We're lovers bound by interest. We already get what we need from each other. Jackson would rather leave alone in advance, so he didn't have to face getting emotional. Isn't the thing in the envelope a credit card?"

Ivan was awkward. Gabrielle looked confused, but she knew everything. She was a smart girl who pretended not. So everyone loved her.

How blessed was Jackson to meet Gabrielle in his life.

Ivan coughed, saying, "Miss Gabrielle, I'll leave the mystery for you to solve."

Gabrielle took a close look at the envelope. From the thickness, there seemed to be something else inside. Was it a letter he wrote? That was such a cliche.

Gabrielle hesitated and finally took it over.

The envelope wasn't sealed off. Gabrielle opened it, and a black card fell out. As Gabrielle expected, it was a credit card. She was surprised at how generous Jackson was. It was a black gold card and the acknowledged king of the card. It targeted super-rich people with no withdrawal limits.

Even if Gabrielle didn't work and started having fun with her life, she couldn't spend it with the card.

Gabrielle bent over to pick it up and put it back in the envelope. She handed it back to Ivan, "I'll take the card. But give Jackson this card and tell him this is what I pay for sleeping with him. Tell him he's worth it."

Pay for sleeping with Jackson?

So Ivan took it that Jackson was considered a man whore. Was he right?

Ivan looked at Gabrielle with amazement. How dare she say that?

However, Gabrielle ignored Ivan and looked down at another thing taken from the envelope.

It was a wedding invitation to Jackson and Holly's.

"This..." Gabrielle paused and put it away, "I'll take it."

Ivan said, "Will you go?"

Gabrielle said, "I don't know. I haven't decided yet." She took the wedding invitation in her pocket. The wedding engagement celebration was delayed, probably because of what happened to Charles. Anyway, it was days after. She would see that later. Who knew what would happen.

Ivan didn't speak. If it were him, he would be in a pickle as well. Attending the wedding meant seeing the man she loved getting married. And the bride wasn't Gabrielle. But if she didn't go, she couldn't see him.

"Gabrielle? Are you ready? We should go." She took the wedding invitation in her pocket.

Gabrielle answered and walked out of the door.

Ivan followed her. Outside the door were two of Jackson's bodyguards. Jackson left with Phantom.

Ivan followed Gabrielle to the dock. There were several boats on the moor. Judging from the symbol, Ivan could tell they belonged to the Howel family.

The day was lovely. The sea and sky were both blues. They almost formed a straight line. The gentle breeze blew by their clothes and hair. Gabrielle turned around to wave at Ivan to say goodbye.

Ivan waved at Gabrielle too. After she went to the coach, Ivan took out a phone from the inside pocket of his suit, which was in the middle of a conversation.

The call duration on the screen showed over an hour.

Ivan took the phone by his ear, saying, "Sir, do you hear that?"

Gabrielle left...

On the other side of the phone, Jackson said, "Hear what? That she offered me money to spend the night with me?"

Ivan was speechless.

***

Gabrielle sneezed and took the tissue Avery handed over. She sneezed all over on Avery's phone and said, "Sorry, Avery."

Avery poked her head with the index finger. They sat on the couch and started laughing.

Avery and Gabrielle had the same father and different mothers. Since Avery knew her birth father was the president of B Country, she knew she and Gabrielle weren't real sisters. But that didn't affect their relationship.

For Gabrielle, her sister was a sister for life. Avery was the family that was the nicest to her. For Avery, it was the same.

Gabrielle leaned on Avery's shoulder and slipped the screen of Avery's phone. She said, "Your daughter is so pretty. She's gonna be a gorgeous woman after she grows up."

The scar on Avery's daughter's face was cured. There was new skin on the wound. She was a baby, and the skin she grew was the same as the old skin.

Her daughter's skin was fair and pinky. When she smiled, it was gorgeous. Even Gabrielle wanted a lovely daughter.

Ahem. Both Avery and Gabrielle heard the coughing, and they looked up. Evan looked at his iPad with dissatisfaction. But judging by the way he turned over pages, Gabrielle didn't think he was watching it.

It was more like venting.

Gabrielle said with a smile, "Avery, you give Evan the cold shoulder. He's not happy."

Avery took a peek at Evan, saying, "Ignore him." He was crossing the line last night and had sex with her on the beach.

Tinder walked over and bent over to whisper something to Evan. Evan stared at Avery and walked to the other side of the boat.

When Evan was out of Avery's vision, Tinder took out a square transparent plastic bag from his pocket. It was a broken phone. He handed it over to Evan, saying, "Sir, our men found Charles's phone on the spot..."
