Chapter 118 Let's Be Fair About This

Gabriel started toward the lounge, but a soft hand caught his sleeve. "Gabriel." Vivian tipped her face up, her voice soft and deliberate as she continued, "Won't you at least have a drink with me?" Gabriel glanced at the fingers clutching his cuff, his expression turning cold. He pulled his arm free without hesitation. "I'm not interested in you." Silence enveloped them in an instant, and color drained from Vivian's cheeks as she stood there, mortified. However, Gabriel didn't spare her another look and simply headed the way Emily had gone. Immediately, Vivian's eyes reddened as she helplessly turned to Marlene. Marlene gently squeezed her hand and spoke in a low voice, "Vivian, don't rush it." She watched Gabriel's back with a calculating glint in her eyes. "Men always want what they can't have. Let him get turned down first. Once he divorces Emily, he'll realize how good you are." In Marlene's mind, Emily was nothing without the Holtons, and divorce was only a matter of time.
