One Night Stand With My Future Uncle In Law SEVENTY ONE
Gabriella's POV I stood up from the bed, walked silently across the carpeted floor, and stopped right in front of the door. I placed the palm of my right hand flat against the wood and rested my forehead against the cold surface."There is nothing for us to talk about, Davis," I said, keeping my voice loud and clear. "Go back downstairs and leave me alone.""We have a lot to talk about," he said. He slammed his open hand against the outside of the door. The wood shook hard against my forehead, and I pulled my head back fast. "You embarrassed me tonight. You did it in front of my mom, my dad, and everyone else at that memorial service. You made me look weak. You made me look like I have no control.""I didn't make you look like anything," I said, trying to keep my voice steady. "You did that to yourself when you grabbed my arm in front of all those people.""Don't play games with me," he said. He raised his fist and hit the middle of the door with a lot of force. The wooden frame made

Gabriella's POV "I am fine, Mom," I said."No, you are not," she said. She shook her head. She turned around in her seat to look at me. "Too many bad things happened to you these past few weeks. First the company, then Valentina, and now Davis. It is too much.""I know," I said. I looked out the window at the trees. "But I will be okay. I have to be."My father looked up. Our eyes met in the rearview mirror. He held the steering wheel tighter. "We will fix this, Gabriella. We will find a way to get you out of this deal. I will not let him force you to marry him.""How?" I asked. I leaned forward so he could hear me. "Davis will not stop. He wants to marry me so he can take our family business and money. He told me that. He will not change his mind just because we ask him nicely. He does not care about us.""We will find a way," my father said. His voice was hard. He pushed the gas pedal down. "We can use the law. We can use business rules. We have friends who can help."I did not ans

Gabriella's POVI stood on the grass in the garden for a long time after Valentina walked away. The night air had a low temperature, and the coldness felt sharp against the skin of my arms and face, but I did not move my feet. I remained in that exact position and stared at the dark pathway where she had disappeared from my sight. My mind was filled with many difficult questions that I could not answer. I wondered who Valentina's sister was. I wondered what had happened to her in the past. I also wondered why Kristen had looked so happy and satisfied when she spoke about that situation.I did not have any answers to these thoughts. But I understood one fact clearly. I was not going to discover the truth by remaining outside in the dark.I turned around, walked across the grass, and pushed open the heavy glass door to go back inside the building. The memorial service was still happening. The large room was filled with people standing in groups of three or four, talking to each other i

Gabriella's POV "Gabriella." Davis stepped directly toward me, his face tight. His voice was low, fast, and urgent. "You are making a massive scene in front of the board members. Please. Stop talking right now.""Why should I stop?" I asked him, staring back at him. "Because I am telling the absolute truth to their faces? Because I am saying out loud what every single person here is thinking in secret?"Davis reached out and grabbed my upper arm with his hand. His grip was incredibly tight, his fingers digging into my skin through the fabric of my black dress. "You are making a fatal mistake right now, Gabriella.""Let go of my arm immediately," I said, glaring at his fingers."Gabriella, listen to me—""I said let go of me, Davis."He slowly released his grip, dropping his hand back to his side. His face was bright red with embarrassment, and his jaw muscle was twitching violently. But he did not say another word to me in front of the guests.I turned my back on him, walked straight

Gabriella's POV We stepped out of our car and walked inside the front doors.The main foyer was completely packed with guests. People were standing around in tight clusters, talking to one another in low, hushed whispers. I recognized several of their faces from the grand family gathering that had occurred weeks ago. Others in the crowd were complete strangers to me. All of them looked exactly like they belonged to a wealthy corporate world that I did not understand at all.A uniformed servant appeared in front of us, offering refreshments from a silver tray. My mother took a glass of water. My father shook his head in refusal. Raphael stepped up right beside me, placing his hand firmly on my lower back."Stay very close to me," he whispered in my ear. "Do not wander off alone into the rooms.""I will not leave your side," I promised him.Suddenly, Davis appeared from the middle of the crowd. He was wearing a dark black suit, a white silk tie, and a very somber, sad expression on his

Gabriella's POV I nodded my head. "I know. I will be very careful around him."My mother stood up from the mattress. "There is something else you need to know. Something I need to tell you before tomorrow morning.""What is it?" I asked, looking up at her."The senior members of the Castillo family are holding a public memorial service for Mariano tomorrow," she explained. "It is a massive public event. Everyone connected to the family business is expected to attend."I felt my stomach drop with sudden nausea. "A memorial service? He is not even dead, Mom. The authorities have not even found an actual body in the river.""I know that," she said, her voice dropping. "But Davis's faction wants to move forward immediately. They want to show the public a sense of total unity. They want to present a strong financial front to the investors.""Whose specific idea was this?""It is Davis's branch of the family. They are the ones who are actively pushing for the service. They want to official

Gabriella's Pov I went completely still. Every muscle in my body locked up.The voice was low and unhurried. I felt it move through me the same way it had in Vegas. Like it had all the time in the world and knew exactly what it wanted."How did you get this number?" My voice came out steadier than
