Chapter 388:
Inspired, Gabriela pushed herself to the limit, working hard until she finally earned admission into his university and became his schoolmate, just as she had dreamed.
Allan was gentle and meticulous, always obeying the rules. So why would someone like him run a red light? What had really happened that day?
Every memory of him was like a blade lodged in her throat, slicing her anew each time she recalled it.
The sudden buzz of her phone jolted her out of the spiral.
Wesley’s name lit up the screen.
“Did you see the documents and the footage?” he asked.
“Yes,” Gabriela hesitated, her voice dropping to a whisper. “Mr. Moss… I’m sorry p>
“There’s no need to apologize.” A short, cold laugh crackled through the line. “I didn’t do all this just to hear your apology p>

Her throat tightened. Words lodged there, unspoken.
Wesley’s voice came again, stripped of warmth. “If there’s nothing else p>
“There is!” Gabriela blurted, her heart racing. “Could we meet tomorrow p>
She had to tell him she knew he was the father of her son — the man from that one-night stand.
There was a pause, long enough to make her chest ache. Finally, he answered, “Alright p>

Myah had visited before, and Gabriela had already instructed that Myah never needed an appointment.
Setting her phone aside, Gabriela rose and guided Myah to the sofa.
She didn’t pry about the reason for the visit, instead asking the secretary to bring in a cup of coffee.
The moment the door closed, Myah’s voice cut through the silence. “Gabriela, did Loretta and Miriam move into your villa p>
Gabriela nodded calmly. “Yes p>
“How come?” Myah’s brows knit tightly. “Isn’t the Moss Manor big enough for them? Why would they choose your place p>
“Do you remember Truett?” Gabriela explained gently. “Loretta adores the baby. She just wanted to spend a few days with him at my place p>
“No way!” Myah’s voice cracked with agitation. “I think I know what’s going on. She’s not there for the child; she wants you to marry her grandson p>
Gabriela blinked, momentarily speechless, before forcing herself to speak soothingly. “Please, don’t be upset p>
But Myah shot to her feet. Though her eyes were clouded with blindness, the icy fury on her face made her seem almost spectral. “Gabriela, Mr. Williams already told me about Allan’s organ donation. He was murdered by the Mosses p>
