Chapter 151
Vanessa stumbled back, her hand flying to her cheek, her expression stunned as that was the first time Zabelle had laid hands on her.
“How dare you?!” She roared in anger and Zabelle responded by giving her another slap on the other cheek.
“Elders are allowed to correct the young ones, aren’t they? Hi, I’m your elder sister,” Zabelle said, her voice still calm.
“you wretched child!” It was Lily who spoke this time as she moved closer to Zabelle
The latter recognized the look in her mother’s eyes, and she knew what was coming next. “I suggest you don’t try to touch me, as it w
won’t end well for you, Lily”
Her mother paused, clearly mortifed not only about the fact that she had spoken up but about the fact that she had addressed her by her name
“Tell me something. Lily, you always praise Vanessa Were you the one who encouraged her to drug my husband and try to get him to sleep with
“That’s enough!” Gabriel finally spoke, his tone low but dangeroun,
“No.” Zabelle shot back, stepping further into the room. “You don’t get to dictate what’s enough, Gabriel. Not anymore.”
“So tell me Lily, were you the one that taught your daughter how to drug other people’s husbands?” Zabelle returned her attention to Lily.
“Accusing my daughter.”
“Shes over there, you can ask her whether or not I’m lying, but she’ll just lie about that as well, Zabelle clicked her tongue
“But I didn’t come here for her. I came here for you two, mom and dad,” she smiled.
“Let’s talk about the truth”
Gabriel’s expression didn’t falter, but there was a flicker of discomfort in his eyes.
“What truth?” he asked smoothly as if he didn’t have a care in the world.
“The truth about my actual parents,” Zabelle said, her voice cracking slightly despite her best efforts t to keep it steady.
“Zain and Isabelle Pierce, My real par
parents or am I wrong?”
The room fell into a tense silence. Gabriel’s calm demeanor finally broke, while Lily paled, her eyes darting nervously toward him.
Fuck! Gabriel cursed in his head. She had found out. How did she find out!!
“You stole me from them.” Zabelle continued, her voice rising with every word.
“You lied to everyone, made them think their child was dead. You ruined lives, Gabriel. Their lives, my life.. all for what? I’m guessing it was for your own twisted sense of power”
Gabriel moved closer to Zabelle, ins towering presence nicant to intimidate like he did, but Zabelle did something that shocked him, she took a step closer instead of cowering.
“You don’t know what yo

- Gabriel.
“Or what?” Zabelle challenged, stepping closer. “You’ll make my life a living hell? Go ahead,
I’d like to see that happen again.
Gabriel clenched his fists, his jaw tightening as he struggled to maintain control. “You don’t know the whole story,” he finally said, his voice barely above a whisper
“Then tell me Zabelle demanded and she chuckled. “But you won’t because it will only reveal what we all know.”
“You know when Antonio told me you were behind the attack back when we were on our honeymoon, I requested him not to do anything because I thought there was still hope for you.”
“I wasn’t behind whatever attack you’re talking abour, Gabriel immediately denied.
“Of course you weren’t,” Zabelle agreed mockingly.
“But now, Gabriel Pierce, no one is going to save you and your family from what is going to happen to you.” Zabelle smiled madly, an evil glint evident in her eyes.
The next thing she happened shocked her as she felt something cold press against her forehead. Gabriel had his gun against her forehead.
“You really have some nerve to come to my house and threaten me,” he hissed. “Forget about destroying me. I want to see how you’ll make it out of bere alive?
The tension in the room was suffocating as Zabelle and Gabriel stared each other down, neither willing to look away. Meanwhile, all Vanessa and Lily could do was watch in silence.
tabelle’s eyes darted to the clock in the room and she chuckled.
“If you’re going to kill me, make it snappy because you have only fifteen seconds before my guards come bursting through that door,” she said.
“And I suggest you kill me, or I’ll be the one responsible for your death,” Zabelle promised him and he cocked the gun
my wife go, or you can say goodbye to your wife and daughter, someone else growled, and Zabelle frowned as she recognized the voice. Antonio was 11
