Chapter 1312
Gael stayed up all night on New Year's Eve. He kept watch over Ansley. When the little girl woke up on New Year's Day, the first thing she saw was a fluffy teddy bear beside her pillow. It was her favorite toy, which she had mentioned to her dad several times. Ansley picked it up and hugged it tightly. She was unwilling to let go. Her dad had been there. After a while, she noticed Gael sitting by the bed. His eyes were reddened as if he hadn't slept all night. On top of that, his hair was messy, making him look disheveled and exhausted. Ansley held her beloved toy and called out softly, "Uncle Gael." Ansley felt deeply sorry for him. After all, it was Gael who had covered her surgery expenses, and it was his place she was living in now. Even so, she still wanted to be with her dad.Gael's voice was slightly hoarse as he responded, "Yeah."Gael looked at Ansley's teary eyes. After thinking for a moment, he pulled out a bank card from his pocket and placed it in her small h

Maisy the servant responded eagerly from downstairs. Once Emilia had walked away, however, she muttered under her breath, “Scalded her tongue... My ass. She's out there fooling around all day long, and yet she doesn't know how to cover her tracks afterward. "Emilia acts like she's worried people won’t find out she’s sneaking around with men.” A nearby maid who was busy cleaning chuckled in response.Maisy leaned in and whispered to her, “Don’t be fooled by how smug she is now. Her days are numbered. Sooner or later, Mr. Gael will throw her aside. With that said, Mr. Gael truly loves Ansley.” The maid nodded repeatedly in agreement. Everyone understood it perfectly. Everyone, except Emilia.…In the master bedroom, Emilia sat at the vanity. She was wrapped in a snow-white bathrobe. Her body was soft and fragrant as she applied the most expensive skincare products. Nearby, a small gilded cart held a bowl of freshly made herbal soup. It was still emitting steam. After Emilia

Gael was on the phone when Emilia barged into the director's office. He glanced up at her with cold indifference. Grace felt a twinge of sadness. When Emilia first arrived in Brookesville, Gael had acted like a chivalrous protector. Now, he no longer cherished it at all after he obtained what he wanted. On the surface, it seemed like Emilia was still married to Gael. She deceived Gael and she didn't love him from the bottom of his heart.If Gael truly loved Emilia, he would be able to tolerate everything, no matter how scummy or rotten that woman might be. Grace looked awkwardly between them. "I told you that Mr. Gael is on an important call, Ms. Emilia." Emilia scoffed. "I'm Gael's wife." After exchanging a few words with the person on the other end, Gael hung up the phone. He then motioned for Grace to step out before finally turning his attention to Emilia.Emilia used to be the woman Gael loved but could never have obtained. He smirked as he pulled out a pure white

Finally, Gael said softly, "Karma bit each of us in the back, Emilia." "Karma?" Emilia laughed through her tears. "Yes! You're right, it is karma!" She was a smart woman and quickly understood everything. She realized that Gael was connected to Carter. That spineless man suddenly dared to sue her, which must have been due to Gael's support. However, Emilia realized this too late. In the end, former lovers turned into enemies, leaving only one line. "Gael, you bastard!"…Gael also started to laugh with tears streaming down his face. He was still holding the cigarette, and he trembled as he countered, “Am I the bastard? Have I not given enough? "My marriage has collapsed, and I have no home left. I've lost Yanni. Is that not enough? Tell me, Emilia. What have you given back to me? Is it the fact that you cheated on me?”Emilia couldn't find an answer. “Get out!” Gael shouted and swept all the documents off his desk and onto the floor. “Get out, Emilia! The game is

Gael's servant wouldn't let Emilia in, but she was driven by desperation and crazily slammed her car against the villa's gates. The servants had no choice but to let her in. Emilia's expression was that of a lost dog while she gripped the steering wheel. She had nothing left now. She couldn't afford to lose Ansley. She had to take her daughter away. Emilia stood a chance to make a comeback with Ansley by her side.As soon as the car stopped, Emilia hurriedly flung open the door and rushed toward the stairs. She cried out, “Ansley! Mommy's here to take you away! Quickly pack your things and come with Mommy, Ansley!”There was no response from Ansley. Emilia's voice was the only echo in the spacious villa.Emilia thought that Ansley must have fallen asleep, and she didn't dwell on it. She grasped the handrail and was about to ascend the stairs when the servant stepped forward to stop her."Mr. Gael has taken Ansley to her father, Ms. Emilia. She’s probably already on the boat lea

Gael stepped on the gas pedal and drove away. In the rearview mirror, Carter stood holding Ansley and watching Gael's car until they could no longer see him. Only then did Ansley look up at her father and hand him the little teddy bear. She said, "There’s money inside the bear."Carter was a bit surprised. Ansley unzipped the back of the bear and pulled out a bank card. She told Carter there were 20 million dollars on it, and the password was her birthday. She also told him that Gael had given it to her.Carter held the bank card as his tears fell. He wasn’t greedy, but he knew deep down that Ansley’s future would be secure with this money. He felt like a failed father, but Gael had given her a bright future.Carter held Ansley as they boarded the ship bound for Singalune, bathing in the morning light. The sound of the ferry’s whistle echoed, marking the beginning of their new life.…Gael didn’t return to the villa. As far as he was concerned, the villa that held shared memorie

Gael hadn’t found peace, but he chose to let go.…Yanni stood quietly. The night was slightly cool, and her hand was held by Keaton.He spoke softly, "A man like Gael wouldn’t shortchange himself in life. I think he also wouldn’t allow himself to fall into despair."Yanni smiled faintly, "I believe that."The street stretched their shadows long and intertwined before fading away.

It enhanced his stunning appearance.This lunch was a blind date arranged by Zoe, and Jamie had heard that the woman was involved in the business. He didn’t like career-oriented women, probably due to the shadow cast by someone from his past.They had shared good times.
