In a confident tone, Andy retorted. “You’re not the car owner, are you?”
Gina admitted. “I’m not”
you were the one in the back seat of the car today, right? You must have quite
Then what business is it of yours? But since you know about this, I assume you the looks to be able to latch onto the owner of a Rolls Royce.”
When Cathy heard Andy say this, she tugged on Andy’s arm. “How could you make such unfounded accusations about someone? Andy, you should apologize to her right away.”
“Apologize for what? Didn’t you see she didn’t even refute? She’s obviously feeling guilty,” Andy said, not expecting another person to get involved.
“Who are you calling guilty?” Gabriel approached.
Great, another busybody,’ Andy thought, growing impatient.
But when he turned to look, he recognized Gabriel. “Mr. Jackson?”
He quickly bowed and scraped. “Mr. Jackson, hello, I’ve only seen you in news reports before. I never expected to meet you in person. Mr. Jackson, you are indeed a man of great charm and talent.” Andy flattered.
Gabriel ignored Andy’s fawning and his face was stern. “I am the car owner, and you will answer my question from just now.”
Andy felt a sinking feeling in his heart and asked cautiously, “Could it be that this beautiful lady is your girlfriend, Mr. Jackson?”
Gabriel’s face was cold, and before he could give a direct answer, Andy’s legs turned weak under Gabriel’s icy gaze. It was only after Cathy prompted him to apologize quickly that Andy, with a trembling voice, bowed to Gina. “I’m sorry, miss. I spoke without thinking and offended you. Please forgive me.”
Gina didn’t say anything but raised her hand and delivered a crisp slap to Andy’s face.
Andy’s eyes blurred from the impact, but he dared not show his anger.
“This slap is for you to remember. In the future, control your mouth. As for the incident with Gabriel’s car, it was caused by your reckless driving. Own up to your own mistakes instead of forcing your girlfriend to pay for them. If you want to sell yourself, then do it yourself,” Gina said firmly.
At this point, Andy could only nod obediently.
Cathy was also apologizing to Gina. “Miss, please forgive him and don’t take his actions to heart. I will educate him more in the future.”
Hearing this, Gina was taken aback.
She said to Cathy, “Come here. I want to talk to you alone,”
“Your boyfriend is not a good person. Break up with him as soon as possible and don’t let him drag you down.” Gina advised with good intentions.
Cathy looked troubled. “Thank you, I know you mean well. It’s just that he promised me that he would gradually change his bad habits. It will take time, but I believe… he will get better.”
Gina frowned, realizing that the young girl’s infatuation was quite severe. ‘What a pity,” she thought, “if only love sickness is a disease she can cure.
Gina couldn’t bear to see a good girl being mistreated by someone like Andy and couldn’t help but say a few more words. “You’ve never heard the saying? The nature is hard to change. I believe that as an intimate partner, you can’t help but notice his serious flaws. Moreover, he can’t afford the repair

costs now and is considering making you go sell yourself. Do you think he has any humanity left?”
Cathy hung her head, falling silent.
With a sigh of resignation, Gina realized that if the girl didn’t want to break up, no amount of persuasion would be effective.
All Gina could do was leave a helpless remark. “Think it through clearly.”
Then she turned and left.
On the other side, Gabriel said coldly to Andy, “Night Bar doesn’t have the kind of position you’re imagining. We don’t need hostesses here. Moreover, if Find out that the compensation for the repair costs is obtained by forcing your girlfriend into something bad, I will make you pay the price.”
Andy was thoroughly frightened. Even after Gabriel and Gina had walked far away, Andy was still in shock, unable to recover, until Cathy came to his side. “Andy, what are you thinking about?”
Andy looked at Cathy blankly. “Do you know what Mr. Jackson just told me?”
“What?” Cathy was confused.
Andy repeated what Gabriel had said earlier. He was surprised, feeling like Gabriel was protecting his girlfriend.
So he said to Cathy in amazement, “Maybe Gabriel has taken a liking to you, Cathy. Do you think it’s possible? If that’s really the case, could you help me plead with him to agree to let me pay less compensation?”
When Cathy heard this, her eyes were filled with disappointment in Andy. She was not narcissistic enough to think that Gabriel would be attracted to her. It was just that Gabriel, like his girlfriend, was a person with a strong sense of morality who couldn’t stand Andy’s behavior.
She raised her hand and slapped Andy. “Jerk, I never want to see you again.”
Cathy ran away sadly.
Andy, who had been slapped twice, was furious and cursed, covering his face where he stood.
Gabriel escorted Gina back home.
“Then, goodbye?” Gabriel asked, reluctant to part.
“Mm, goodbye.”
“Gina, don’t be upset. If the past is something you chose to forget, then let’s both not remember it, and consider that I’ve forgotten as well, okay?” Gabriel inquired.
Gina nodded. “Alright, you should also go back and get some rest early. You don’t have to keep me company.”
Gabriel returned to the car, and Gina waved goodbye to him. Gabriel was reluctant to leave first “Go upstairs. I’ll leave after I see you do.”
Gina chuckled but agreed to Gabriel’s request and turned to go upstairs first.
As she entered the apartment, Gina glanced through the window and noticed Gabriel’s car was still parked downstairs. She sat back on the sofa and messaged Gabriel. (Aren’t you leaving yet?]
Gabriel: I’ll leave right away, Gina. I suspect someone has stolen the time we spend together, making it always feel like time flies when I’m with you.]

Gina smiled and teased. [Meaning it’s very easy to pass the time when you’re with me?]
Gabriel: [Of course not.]
Gina: was joking.1
When Gina replied, she included a sly smiley emoji,
Gabriel didn’t respond as quickly as before, and Gina figured he must be busy. She lay on the sofa, feeling drowsy, but after only a few minutes, she suddenly opened her eyes and instinctively said, “Mom, what should you prepare for dinner?”
As soon as she said it, Gina felt a jolt of realization. Ruby was already gone, but at this time of day, she used to help Ruby wash vegetables and cook in the kitchen, and it had become a habit.
When she realized this, Gina felt a chill run through her limbs.
