Revenge with Her Quadruplets novel Chapter 133

Chapter 133 Encounter with Noah

Michael didn't take offense but instead said to her with a smile, "Callie, I wish you all the best in finding a good match."

Michael stood up and addressed Gabriella and Timothy, "Gabriella, Timothy, no matter what, we are friends. We'll deal with Eleanor together."

"You wish! No one here wants to be friends with you," Gabriella retorted for she didn't want to entangle further with Michael and his family.

Michael said with a sly smile, "Gabriella, perhaps you should give more thought to what happened at the casino."

Gabriella's mind went blank.

"What are you implying?" she asked and looked visibly unsettled. Timothy had always treated her well, and she couldn't bear the thought of losing him.

Seeing that Gabriella was nervous, Michael sneered. Did she really think she drew two Joker cards out of sheer luck?

He was the one who got the Joker card!

"Gabriella lost a significant amount at the casino, which is likely a trap set by Eleanor. Six years later, Eleanor is not to be underestimated. If she could scheme her way into marrying my uncle, then cheating at the casino would be child's play for her."

Gabriella looked up at Michael and found his words reasonable.

Yet, there was no evidence!

If it truly involved Caroline, she wouldn't let Eleanor off easily.

With a scheming smile, Michael left the Rykers' mansion with Madison.

Timothy turned to Gabriella and said with concern, "Gabriella, the money you've gambled away over the years would be enough for you to use in two lifetimes. Please, no more gambling. I can't earn as much money as I used to, and I don't want to make our finances a burden to our child when we are old."

Gabriella's face turned pale, as she looked at Timothy, whose hair had turned gray over the years. This man had doted on her over the years.

Although she didn't love him, he had always been tolerant of her.

"I understand. I will quit gambling," she promised him with a gentle smile.

Timothy looked deeply into her eyes and found that she still remained a mystery to him.

Timothy often found Gabriella to be a complex puzzle. At times, he sensed she was lost in thoughts of someone else, but she was incredibly gentle towards him, which instantly dissolved any seeds of doubt he had.

"It's getting late, let's head to bed," Timothy said while feeling exhausted. He stood up, and his steps felt heavier than usual.

He had a feeling that the trouble was coming.

Gabriella insisted on raising Eleanor, a decision that baffled him at the time. He couldn't bring himself to harm a child despite his craving for wealth.

Yet, Gabriella didn't treat her well after the adoption and often humiliated her.

Timothy took a deep breath and had to acknowledge that no ambition could outrun the swift passage of time.

He had not achieved the heights he dreamed of before growing old.

Gabriella looked at her daughter, held her hand, and reminded with a smile, "Caroline, while Nathan is capable, he's not the right one for you. Choose someone else. Marry for love, and that's the only path to true happiness."

Caroline suddenly remembered Madison's words and asked, "Mom, you've never really loved Dad, have you?"

Gabriella suddenly thought of the elegant, handsome man with dark hair.

She had never seen him smile, but he was still alluring.

He was a beauty!

Using that word to describe him was no insult; he was the only man who truly deserved that praise in this world.

Feeling agitated, Gabriella stood up and said with a forced smile, "Silly girl, if I didn't love your father, how could I have spent my entire life with him? Now, off to bed."

Then Gabriella headed upstairs.

Watching her mother go upstairs, Caroline was lost in thought.

She could sense that the truth was far from that simple!

...

Eleanor had a sound sleep and didn't wake up until nine in the morning.
