Chapter 43 Fainted In Her Arms
Hazel’s words made Gabriel angry.
He took a step forward, his aura fully unleashed, with a disapproving look in his towards Gianna.
eyes directed
Hazel’s words were filled with hatred and resentment towards him: “The evidence I found, every single piece of it, is proof of Gianna’s crimes.”
If it weren’t for Gabriel’s involvement in it, getting her acquitted on bail, Gianna would have already been reunited with her family inside.
“If it is really her when it is found out, I will never cover up for her, but the fact is not so, Hazel, we cannot falsely accuse others because of the child.”
Vronged?
Ha!
Hazel really felt that Gabriel’s emotional intelligence was too low.
The clear evidence was right in front of him.
How could he still think that she herself was innocent?
Or is it that, because he admired her, he had already become blindly infatuated?
‘Do you think I, as a
father, would be willing to see both of my children poisoned?”
Every time Gabriel met Hazel, he always felt that his eloquence was not enough. He didn’t know where she got all those ideas from!
She said in a flat tone, “Who knows.”
“After all, the child did not come out of your belly, and you did not endure four hours of pain in the operating room, you have not experienced that kind of pain.”
Gabriel felt the headache that he had managed to suppress so hard coming back again. He pinched his brow, his clear and serene forehead filled with annoyance and suppression, and the world in front of his eyes seemed to sway little by little.
The body felt cold and then hot.
The sound of Hazel’s voice in his ears grew fainter and fainter, and he wanted to hear it more clearly, but it was as if it was muffled by a thick layer of glass.
“In short, the child now lived with me.”
“Let’s talk again when you have dealt with Gianna.”
Hazel lowered her gaze and, after speaking, she lifted. her steps to leave. As I passed by Gabriel, he grabbed my wrist.
“You…”
She hadn’t finished speaking when the man leaned towards her and fell over in her direction, resting his chin on her shoulder, with his entire weight pressing down on her. Hazel stumbled back two steps and her back pressed against the tree trunk.
Gabriel!”
She placed her fingers on his pulse, and indeed it was very faint and weal Remember, his body temperature was always slightly lower than the average person’s throughout the year.
In the summer, he held him to cool down.
But at this moment, even through his shirt, she could feel the feverish temperature of him, this man had been sick all along!
When Gabriel woke up again, he found himself in Hazel’s guest room. The upper body clothes, once again, had disappeared without a trace.
Thin and soft silver needles were inserted into his body’s acupoints one by one. It didn’t hurt, but the sheer number of them was intimidating.
The sky outside the window had already darkened.
In the past few years, I have been taking care of the children and handling the affairs of the group. Recently, I have been distracted by various matters, and my body is indeed not strong enough. I need to pay more attention in the future.
He struggled to get up, but found needles stuck in his arms and head. He looked like a hedgehog.
The door of the guest room was pushed open a crack.
The first person to enter was Leila, holding a bottle.
The second one was Joshua, cautiously poking his head in.
The last one is Jaxon, with worry in their eyes about his body, and the uneasiness they secretly came to see him.
Three people poked their heads in, like a stack of matryoshka dolls.
With a perspective from Gabriel, the three children always seemed so alike, with similar eyebrows and eyes, the same astonishment and delight.
Gabriel’s mind came up with an unrealistic guess.
Upon second thought, it was deemed impossible.
“Mum, Dad woke up!”
Jaxon, being the older brother, immediately went to find Hazel.
Joshua also ran to ask his mother to come, determined to cure his father. Finally, only Leila remained.
She was wearing a onesie for sleeping, the pink color looked particularly adorable. After washing and blow–drying her hair, her fair and tender skin resembled a freshly peeled egg, making one unable to resist the urge to give it a kiss.
She wore slippers and approached the bed to look at him, her eyes filled with curiosity.
Leila tilted her head and looked at him, “Uncle got sick.”
Gabriel’s body was covered in needles, and although the quantity looked terrifying, his head no longer hurt.
Leila held a bottle in her mouth, her hands propped on the edge of the bed, and with her little short legs panting, she crawled onto Gabriel’s bed.
Chapter 41 Fanted in Her Arms
Slie sat cross–legged beside Gabriel, holding a milk bottle, drinking from it while looking at the silver needles on his body, quietly waiting for her mother to come.
Tired of sitting, she lay on another pillow, holding a bottle in one hand and playing with her socks with the other.
Hazel came over and saw such a harmonious scene.
The daughter lay beside, drinking milk, while Gabriel had silver needles stuck on his head, hands, and chest, occasionally glancing towards the side.
Gulu gulu, not many bites.
Leila finished her bedtime milk.
She sat obediently on the bed, watching Hazel remove the needle. Jaxon and Joshua also climbed onto the bed and sat beside her, watching together.
Both of their eyes were filled with worry, especially Jaxon.
“Mom, is dad okay?”
Hazel collected all the silver needles, making sure none were missed and accidentally touched by the three children, before leisurely answering Jaxon’s question.
“No, just sleep it off.”
This was not the first time Jaxon had seen Gabriel collapse. Last time, he collapsed in the car, and this time, he collapsed on top of their mother.
He still wasn’t reassured and said, “Mom, can dad stay and sleep tonight? I want to sleep with dad.”
Joshua was a copycat of Jaxon.
Hearing him say so, I also raised my hand to stay and sleep together.
Leila, with her watery big eyes, looked at Jaxon, then looked at Joshua, and just as she was about to speak, she remembered something and reached out towards Hazel.
“Slept with mom.”
Leila’s heart and eyes were filled with her own mother.
Hazel picked up the child and said to Jaxon and Joshua, “Daddy is not feeling well, you guys stay here, he still needs to take care of you, he won’t rest well tonight.”
She made the child go back to sleep with her.
When Gabriel gets better, let them sleep with him again..
Jaxon’s mind quickly turned, and he immediately continued the conversation, “Mom, can Dad also sleep in this room in the future?”
Joshua’s eyes lit up and he exclaimed excitedly, “So, Dad can live with us, right?” He looked at Hazel anxiously for confirmation.
Faced with the expectations of two children, the words of denial came to Hazel’s lips, but in the end, she swallowed them.
She coaxed the children, “If your father is willing, he can stay.”
Mazel didn’t want to be the bad guy in front of the children. She raised her eyebrows at Gabriel’s

silent gaze, signaling him to quickly refuse.
The result…
Gabriel actually nodded in agreement!
He actually agreed!
What does it matter that Gianna lived with the Campbell family?
Joshua happily danced around on the bed.
“Yay! That’s great!”
“I could live with my father, mother, older brother, and younger
Joy was also evident on Jaxon’s face.

sister!”
He held Joshua’s hand and stood by the bed, saying to Gabriel, “Dad, rest well and make sure you sleep well.
“My brother and I went to bed, we’ll come see you when it’s daylight again.”
Gabriel nodded and gave a couple of instructions.
Leila also followed the two brothers back to the room to sleep.
Hazel had not left yet.
She looked at Gabriel with confusion in her eyes and furrowed her brows, “Why did you agree to let the child stay, knowing full well…”
Gabriel asked her, “What did you know?”
“Knowing that you didn’t like me staying, hating me, detesting me, wanting both children to stay away from me as well?”
Hazel was speechless, “I didn’t mean that.”
Gabriel turned his face away, his dark eyes fixed on the lamp on the bedside table, completely unaware that his upper body was still bare.
