Gabriel finally broke his stem facade. He downed his glass of whiskey before turning to Emmett and

saying, “Don’t worry.both of you are here, right? If Ms. Sanchez has a bit too much to drink, you can eat

her home”

Having been in the corporate world for many years, Gabriel knew what these two were worned abou…
