Arranged Marriage: To Hear Your Voice-Chapter 199 Gloomy days

Gabriel's phone chimes reminding him its time to sponge bath her. The nurse prepared her clothes and the warm basin with rose water in it. Gabriel roll his sleeve. As soon as the woman left he started wiping her body gently and carefully.

He then rubbed the lotion that she always use on her body and massage her whole body except her pelvic area. He only caress her there and rubbed the lotion. It's been two weeks and she hasn't woken up yet. Doctors are monitoring her three times a week, they said she's fine and nothing is wrong with her. She just doesn't want to wake up. Her brain is conscious but she can't seem to wake up. Psychiatrists theorize that it was because of the trauma that she couldn't catch up yet.

"Brina, love… please wake up." Gabriel begged her after he put on her a beautiful comfortable dress. "I am here. I told you I would take all of the burden. You don't have to take it all. I am your husband and I should've protected you…" He took her hand and place her palm on his cheeks. Gabriel wasn't a cry baby but Sabrina just made him cry.

"Please wake up for the sake of our baby… please wake up for me. Veronica and Catriona needs you. Your siblings need you. Brina… don't do this to me… it's killing me."

Sabrina was fine after all. She was fine but her head is the problem. She doesn't want to wake up and Gabriel is dying slowly. But whenever Samantha told him that the baby is growing healthy—it gives him a little hope. He bent down, reaching his lips on Sabrina's stomach kissing his baby.

"Little troublemaker… don't be like your mom. Okay? Can you wake up your mom? I need her." ƒ𝚛𝐞𝚎𝑤𝘦𝚋𝓷o𝚟e𝘭.c𝐨𝙢

His phone started ringing. He answer it.

"Gab, bro. I need your help. The board wants to see you. Our stocks dropped into 1 percent."

"I can't leave my wife. If they have other concerns then they can conduct a video conference."

"I understand. Don't worry. I am fixing this up and Veronica is helping me to take back the 1 percent. We can't drop like this."

"Okay." He wipe his wet cheeks and look at his wife who look so beautiful. She just look like she's sleeping. "I will work for a while my wife. I have to work to gain more power for you. I will build a hospital and research facility for you. Don't worry. It will only take a while." He kisses her forehead.

Gabriel worked all day and night. He would only found himself waking up beside her and It feels like he's living on the same day.

Veronica was watching as Francisco get crazy inside the glass wall cell. There's a bed and he has been giving food trice a day. He has to look well while Sabrina is still sleeping. Soon—they would torture him. He keep on screaming and his right hand man has been searching for him, Glenn. She has to do something about that man.

She is also in danger since Glenn already know who she was but her father's assassins are watching. And he doesn't recognize the person who want Catriona dead. It was over the phone and it was a voice of a man in the age of thirties. She doesn't want to run the Ivanov business though her grandfather want her to.

"Vanessa!" Francisco scream. Brandy stood beside her. He had recovered already.

"The business was long bankrupt. Where did the employees go?" She asked him. Brandy was a spy in Francisco's business as a janitor. They were both undercover there and he carelessly show them that he was a spy to EPUA so they could both take Francisco to Sabrina. Francisco's businesses has been bankrupt all of it.

Gabriel work with them and he took it down one by one just as what Sabrina wished. But Sabrina is still sleeping and none of them could wake her up. It's been a month and Veronica is drinking every afternoon sitting on her throne in the dungeon area where they torture people.

"I didn't protect her." Veronica said trying to blame herself.

"Try to visit her." Brandy told her. Veronica can't sleep at night though Tony would work her out.

"What does she know?" She asked. "Sabrina would sketch it if she witness something but it was too rash that she got ambushed. She got ambush by who? Would her grandfather do that to her?"

"If her grandfather was selfish and heartless—he would But Ezekiel loves her. We can see how he dotes on her and protect her. He even block Gabriel from the facility in Virginia." Brandy said trying to pick up the pieces so they would find a solution in the main problem.

"Ezekiel is hiding something." Veronica concluded. "That's why he was hiding Sabrina back then. But since Gabriel is the husband and the legal guardian… Ezekiel had to step back. We have to find out what Sabrina knows."

"How?"

"I don't know. If we spy on Ezekiel he would know since he has lots of eyes around us. Maybe we should take this problem one by one. Let's take down Eros first. Did you find a lead on where he is?"

"Oh him?" Brandy snorted. "He's been hiding after he got a treat from the Dark Lord." He chuckle. "He ask me about Catriona's location and I gave him a false info and settled a villa that has Cat's traces so he would be led to something else. But unluckily—someone really knows Catriona's location at that moment that made theassassins go after her."

"My grandfather's assassins are high class. They are good at sniffing. But they lack plan." She said. "Even Ivanov can't hurt Catriona. I am sure of that." She sipped on her wine.

"How?" Brandy ask as he sipped on the cognac. "How sure are you? Did you take over your grandpa's empire?" ｆ𝘳e𝒆w𝗲𝐛𝘯𝐨νe𝚕.cｏ𝓶

"No. I don't have to."

"But you are their queen."

"Sure, I am…" She finish her glass and pour herself another.Brandy look at her.

"Don't you want a simple life?"

"I do. I am about to marry a Lawson." She lifted her left hand. Brandy chuckle.

"Damn, where can I find a bride? Everyone is getting married."

"Why don't you marry Whiskey?" Veronica tease. Brandy laugh out loud. Sure, their brother's bonding was like a bromance.

"Whiskey has a d!ck. Okay? I need a [email protected] Not the—" a hand comes from his back and hit him on his head.

"I also need a peanut not a hotdog!" He said and he pats Veronica. "How's my sweetheart doing?"

"Celebrating. How many days has it been since I capture my bastard father?"

"I am not counting but I guess it's long. Sabrina has too much sleep. Wake her up. I am getting bored." He said.

Veronica smirk. She was getting bored as well. She wanted to start the torture. Sylvia who has been bullying her for being bad in taekwondo was getting bored in her cell. She do pushups and stretch like she's about to leave there.

Then her father couldn't walk because of the wounds she gave him. Aw, she's enjoying this. She might be a heartless daughter but Francisco made her like this. The way he killed her mother was still fresh in her mind. Her ever so loving mother who taught her good things.
