Chapter 10 You Still Have The Audacity To Come?

• It was because of him that the entire LeBlanc family was driven away.
• They ended up living in such a miserable state.
• Seeking forgiveness from the LeBlanc family was not an easy task.
• But he owed them that!
• Now that Gabriel has returned, he will grant them a lifetime of prosperity!
• "Xanthe, come out, I want to talk to you." Gabriel took a deep breath, "I'll just take a moment of your time, just a moment."
• Confusion filled Xanthe's eyes as she stood inside the house.
• She had both love and hate for this man... Back then, he was the epitome of elegance and charm, the most esteemed gentleman in Claritas. Countless young ladies were infatuated with him.
• Xanthe was no exception!
• However...
• In the end, it was this man who rudely possessed her! And it was also this man who disappeared completely for five years after she became pregnant...
• During those five years, how many cold glances did she endure? How much humiliation did she suffer?
• How many people ridiculed her two children as bastards? Illegitimate children?
• She couldn't forgive him!
• "Sis, I'm going out to drive him away," Hudson said, grabbing a knife with her right hand.
• "Don't!"
• Xanthe’s heart trembled. "I'll talk to him and make it clear that he shouldn't bother us anymore."
• "What's going on?"
• "It's just a lot of noise and commotion!"
• There were two voices coming from inside, which were from Beaumont LeBlanc and Helene, Xanthe's parents.
• "Dad, Mom, that bastard Gabriel is back," Hudson gritted his teeth.
• "What?!"
• As soon as they heard this, the elderly couple's faces turned grim.
• "Why is this rapist back? The Skarsdale family has already been wiped out! Is he coming back to meet his doom? Don't drag us down! Hasn't he caused enough misery for us?"
• Helene was extremely angry.
• Gabriel said guiltily, "Dad and Mom, I'm back!". "Can I come in? I want to apologize to both of you face to face."
• "Get lost!" Beaumont LeBlanc roared. "Don't let me see you."
• Back then, this guy violated his own daughter, and Beaumont wished he could kill him with a knife!
• But Xanthe chose to forgive him...
• "Dad, Mom, if you don't want to see me, I'll stay here," Gabriel shamelessly said. "Give me a chance."
• When did this proud and handsome young man behave so humbly and submissively?
• On the inside, it was Xanthe's family. It was his family too!
• For a man to bow down to his loved ones is not a shameful act.
• "Shameless! Disgusting!"
• Helene trembled with anger. "You're still lingering, aren't you? Fine! Come in, and today I'll make sure you don't leave alive!"
• "Hudson! Open the door for him!"
• Hudson reluctantly opened the door for Gabriel Skarsdale.
• Gabriel felt a glimmer of joy in his heart.
• He stepped inside.
• Slap!
• Helene raised her hand and slapped Gabriel across the face!
• "You have the nerve to show up?"
• Slap!
• "Isn't it enough that you've caused us misery?"
• Slap!
• "Let me tell you, now that the Skarsdale family is dead, you're worthless. Don't even think about Xanthe anymore! We have already arranged a marriage for Xanthe--"
• "He is Mr. Bradford, the son of Wyvern Conglomerate's manager, with a fortune worth millions, a thousand times better than your bankrupt and miserable self."
• "You can't provide happiness for Xanthe and the children, nor a luxurious lifestyle."
• "So, please, stop bothering Xanthe and the children, even if I beg you..." Helene's voice was filled with pleading.
• Years of poverty almost drove her insane!
• She couldn't take it anymore!
• Marriage?!
• Gabriel's mind was suddenly shaken. "I... don't... agree."
• His woman, Gabriel’s woman, was not to be tainted by others.
• He spoke earnestly, "As long as you desire, I can make you stand at the pinnacle of Claritas at any time, enjoying all the glory and wealth..."
• "Enough!"
• "Gabriel Skarsdale, face the reality. Do you think I would hold you in high regard for this? It only makes me despise you even more!"
• Xanthe was disappointed.
• The members of the LeBlanc family laughed mockingly, looking at him as if he were a fool... Did he really think of himself as the once prominent young master of the Skarsdale family?
• Xanthe held a glimmer of hope for Gabriel...
• As a result, when this guy returned, he was all talk and no substance, lacking stability.
• In this way, how could they bring happiness to all three of them, as a family?
• Xanthe was completely disappointed in Gabriel...
