Gabriella looked taken aback for a moment before she chuckled lightly while wearing a smile."C'mon Leon, that isn't much of a big deal" Gabriella said as her smile weaned as she looked around."Or is it?" she asked quietly as Leon nodded his head."It's a big deal. Diego had gone to great lengths to hide your identity from the rest of the world. You were just a college student who knew nothing about the affairs of the business world, how badly people wanted to cozy up to you so as to get into the good books of the Rodriguez family, so that others wouldn't bully you if you went out" Leon replied as Gabriella chuckled."Bully me? Do I look like someone who could get bullied?" Gabriella asked as she laughed but she quickly cut her laughter short upon realizing that none of the men were laughing with her."Stephanie.. Leon started as Gabriella quickly cut him off."She couldn't bully me or if anything, I think I bullied her instead" Gabriella said as she smiled, so you don't need to worr

Diego placed his phone beside his computer as he started looking through some of the files on the table.His computer beeps quietly as a new email entered but he didn't bother opening the email as he continued working on his computer. There were the things he should have attended to as soon as he came back from work but with John and the rest coming immediately after him, he couldn't leave them in the seating room and go off to work so he definitely had to do the work before he slept.It wasn't much of a hassle and that was why in the first place, he wasn't really bothered since he knew he could always do it either in the car while going to work or before he slept at whatever time the other men left.Thinking about what had happened in the past month, Diego really didn't have an explanation for his actions. He had almost fell out with his childhood best friend of almost twenty years because of his wife that he hadn't known for more than three months. The irony was not just funny, it w

With the chaos that had happened earlier that day and knowing that despite threatening the Deputy Head, the stupid woman still sent another text that made the veins in her forehead bulge wildly. She quickly gave Mona and Angel some weird excuse as she was quick to run to the library to do the job once and for all.Stepping into the most desolate place in the library, Gabriella brought out her laptop and wriggled her fingers together as her fingers started running on the keyboard with expertise. Her eyes and eyebrows were furrowed as she typed without care. Barely an hour later, her eyebrow became even more furrowed. All these officials had been trying to curry favor from the Rodriguez family for years and till now they still haven't succeeded so Gabriella wasn't sure of which of the officials might have been used. Maybe all of them were used to test their loyalty to them.Gabriella rubbed her forehead as she dialled a number on her phone while the other person picked up on thesecond

It had been more than one week since Diego and Gabriella last spoke to each other. Diego came only by the time Gabriella was asleep and by the time she woke up, he would have gone to the office. In summary, for the past one week, she hadn't seen Diego at all even though they slept in the same house.Gabriella deeply regretted her actions.Maybe she should have used another way to find out what feeling Diego held towards her after discovering that she had lied to him. She had taken the hard and bitter road and she deeply regretted it. She wanted to apologize but she didn't have the courage and it was eating her up. Ever since she and Diego had gotten married, they hadn't even had a single misunderstanding but now they had gotten into a big quarrel.Gabriella stared at the Professor in front of the class as she tried to understand what the older man was saying but nothing was entering her head."Miss Deville, are you listening to me at all?" the older Professor asked with a frown on hi

Noah sighed softly as he started walking towards Gabriella and stopped a few meters away from her. Gabriella wore a full smile as she tried to adjust her school bag over her shoulders."You are here" Gabriella said softly asNoah nodded quietly.*Yeah" Noah replied, keeping his eyes on Gabriella 's dark circles."It's good that you are here" Gabriella said as she swallowed her saliva."I had a small quarrel with Alex. I would have trouble keeping him company these days" Gabriella said as Noah chuckled."always keep him company" Noah replied and that was all it took for Gabriella to realize that Noah was being slightly hostile to her."And why did you quarrel with him?"Noah asked but before Gabriella could reply, he answered the question himself."Keeping secrets from him as well?"Noah asked as Gabriella froze while she stared at Noah in slight shock."You know what Gabriella , I keep getting curious. Kind of. What does Alex mean to you?" Noah asked as Gabriella wore a frown on her f
