Chapter 804
Gabriel frowned. âThat serious?â
Wilhelm, standing next to Jane, rushed forward and hugged Gabrielâs leg. Tears welled in his eyes as he cried, âDaddy, it hurts so muchâ¦
Seeing his sonâs nose crinkle in pain, Gabriel felt a pang in his heart. He crouched before him and gently stroked his head. âWil, it will stop hurting in a few days. Just be good.â
Wilhelm managed to hold back his tears, sniffling. âI donât want to go to school⦠Iâm scaredâ¦â
His terrified demeanor only deepened Gabrielâs distress. A flicker of rage ignited in his eyes -he wouldnât let whoever had hurt his son get away with it.
Noticing his angry expression, Jane embellished the story of what had happened at school.
By the end, she looked at Gabriel and said, her voice laced with discontent, âNyla ruined me at Grandpaâs birthday party. Now her son has hurt ours like this. I wonât let it go!â
Gabriel pursed his lips, remaining silent.
Upon recalling how Jane had almost ruined Nylaâs face by pushing her at the birthday party, his gaze turned icy, and he subconsciously tightened his grip.
His silence ignited Janeâs anger. âGabriel, what do you mean by not saying anything? Are you still hung up on Nyla and planning to let this slide?
âIâll tell you, if you donât handle this well, Iâll inform Grandpa about how you used to like Nyla. Letâs see if heâll take back the game company you have now!â
Her expression was arrogant and threatening. If it werenât for her, Gabriel wouldnât be who he was today. She loved this man but wouldnât allow him to escape her control.
Gabriel looked up, his gaze sweeping over Janeâs cold face as he smiled and pulled her into an embrace. âDonât worry, darling. You and our son are what matter most to me.â
Jane scoffed and pushed him away, clearly unconvinced. âThen why were you silent just now?â
Gabriel remained calm despite her aggressive demeanor, his toǹe gentle. âI was just thinking. Nyla is with Damon now, and that child is Damonâs son. If we provoke Damon, it will definitely impact the collaboration between Prospectus Technology and the Wilkie Group.â
âSo what? Am I supposed to let our son suffer for the sake of business?â Jane retorted.
Gabriel sighed. âBut what you did at Grandpaâs birthday party has already upset him. If you provoke Damon again, Theo might stir up more trouble.â

Jane gritted her teeth, knowing Gabriel was right. However, she couldnât shake the feeling that he didnât want to put Nyla in a difficult position over their son.
She questioned, âGabriel, can you honestly say you have no ulterior motives?â
Gabriel frowned, confused. âWhat ulterior motives could I have?â
âHave you already forgotten that you used to like Nyla?â Jane pressed.
âThat was ages ago, and Iâve explained it to you already!â Gabriel replied.
Jane persisted, âWhatâs with that impatient expression and tone? Did I hit a nerve?â
She stared hard at Gabriel, her eyes filled with suspicion and anger.
Gabrielâs face hardened as he countered, âJane, I have nothing to feel guilty about. Everything I say and do is for your benefit. If you donât believe me, feel free to do as you wish, but youâll have to bear the consequences!
