    Gabriel frowned. "That serious?"


    Wilhelm, standing next to Jane, rushed forward and hugged Gabriel''s leg. Tears welled in his eyes as he cried, " Daddy, it hurts so much..."


    Seeing his son''s nose crinkle in pain, Gabriel felt a pang in his heart. He crouched before him and gently stroked his head. "Wil, it will stop hurting in a few days. Just be good."


    Wilhelm managed to hold back his tears, sniffling. "I don''t want to go to school... I''m scared..."


    His terrified demeanor only deepened Gabriel''s distress. A flicker of rage ignited in his eyes-he wouldn''t 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 voiceced with discontent, "N ruined me at Grandpa''s birthday party. Now her son has hurt ours like this. I won''t let it go!"


    Gabriel pursed his lips, remaining silent.


    Upon recalling how Jane had almost ruined N''s face by pushing her at the birthday party, his gaze turned icy, and he subconsciously tightened his grip.


    His silence ignited Jane''s anger. “Gabriel, what do you mean by not saying anything? Are you still hung up on N and nning to let this slide?


    "I''ll tell you, if you don''t handle this well, I''ll inform Grandpa about how you used to like N. Let''s see if he''ll take back the gamepany you have now!"


    Her expression was arrogant and threatening. If it weren''t for her, Gabriel wouldn''t be who he was today. She loved this man but wouldn''t allow him to escape her control.


    Gabriel looked up, his gaze sweeping over Jane''s cold face as he smiled and pulled her into an embrace. "Don''t worry, darling. You and our son are what matter most to me."


    Jane scoffed and pushed him away, clearly unconvinced. "Then why were you silent just now?"


    Gabriel remained calm despite her aggressive demeanor, his tone gentle. "I was just thinking. N is with Damon now, and that child is Damon''s son. If we provoke Damon, it will definitely impact the coboration between Prospectus Technology and the Wilkie Group."


    "So what? Am I supposed to let our son suffer for the sake of business?" Jane retorted.


    Gabriel sighed. "But what you did at Grandpa''s birthday party has already upset him. If you provoke Damon again, Theo might stir up more trouble.”


    Jane gritted her teeth, knowing Gabriel was right. However, she couldn''t shake the feeling that he didn''t want to put N in a difficult position over their son.


    She questioned, “Gabriel, can you honestly say you have no ulterior motives?"


    Gabriel frowned, confused. "What ulterior motives could I have?"

    “Have you already forgotten that you used to like N?" Jane pressed.


    "That was ages ago, and I''ve exined it to you already!" Gabriel replied.


    Jane persisted, “What''s with that impatient expression and tone? Did I hit a nerve?” She stared hard at Gabriel, her eyes filled with suspicion and anger.


    Gabriel''s face hardened as he countered, “Jane, I have nothing to feel guilty about. Everything I say and do is for your benefit. If you don''t believe me, feel free to do as you wish, but you''ll have to bear the consequences!"
