Arranged Marriage: To Hear Your Voice Chapter 75
Advertisement
Keisha was one of Jiro's friend. She's a real gold digger and someone else's mistress. But of course, since she's a friend she's welcome to the party. She dress too showy and put on thick-make up compare to Mrs. Lawson who only wore a burgundy lipstick and mascara.
Sabrina was sipping on the wine with her husband's arm around her to warm her as he rubbed her exposed arms.
"Are you cold?" he murmur in her ear and she nodded. He remove his coat and put it on her. She smiled and kisses his nose.
Keisha saw the affection between the two and she was angry so she deliberately walk in front of them. But since the two are so into each other, they didn't notice her. She then sat down on the chair next to Gabriel and that's when Sabrina's eyes turns ice cold.
She stood and pull him up. She then pushes him gently on her seat and sits down on his lap. He was surprise at her actions and she clung into him. He chuckled and wrapped his arms around her holding her closely.
"There are lots of vacant chairs, do you really miss clinging onto me that much?" If it was another woman, he would be embarrassed but it was his wife and he love it whenever she clings to him like that. He might not notice Keisha, one of his flings that literally hugged him few days ago and was dragged away by her people.
He was letting her have her way as people in the party look towards their direction. Keisha who has been ignored snorted, stood from her seat and was about to leave when Jiro came up to greet her. He glance at the lovey dovey couple who would melt people's heart and practically killed the single ones.
"You want a place that isn't crowded?" He asked and she nodded. So she stood and he took her somewhere inside the villa, where there's not much people.
He sat down on the sofa and she sat next to him and cuddle on him like a kitten. A butler came and gave them drinks. He thank the butler and soon maids came setting up finger foods on the coffee table. She pick the bowl full of fruits and started eating and that's when Gabriel's known Tycoon friends enter.

She stopped eating and frown a little. Gabriel saw her expression and wanted to laugh. He patted her head.
"Be good." He mutter. "Don't bite them." She lean on him and didn't stand to greet them. She's that introvert and very much a snob.
Gabriel nod as his friends get seated. A man sat next to her and was the first to extend his hand for introduction.
"Hi, I'm Larry, CEO of Leon Commercial." She only look at his face and nod then continue eating.
"She doesn't like socializing." Gabriel said as he put his arms back to her and she lean on him.
"Oh-kay."
"I'll do the introductions for her." He introduced five men to her one by one saying little about their background. She only nodded and analyze their faces. He then let the gentlemen introduce their muses.
They of course act nice and complimented her. She just sat there relax without expression and let them compliment her just to be on Gabriel's good side. Out of all them, Gabriel was more powerful and richer. And well, without their knowing, Sabrina is more powerful than Gabriel when it comes to the other way.
"It's supposed to be my birthday." Jiro said. Sabrina took her purse, pull out a key from it and toss it to Jiro. He caught it with creased brows then carefully examined the key together with the remote, its the keychain of a Ferrari. He look at her still surprised.
"Did you buy a Ferrari?" Gabriel asked her. She nodded. "When?" He didn't know about this. She pull out her phone and send him a message.
Wifey: Just yesterday.
"Oh-kay."
"Is this?" Jiro asked while holding back his excitement. Sabrina nodded.
"She said happy birthday. That's her gift to you."
Jiro hold the key and press it to his heart, he nearly cried out of excitement. He was about to jump and hug her but Gabriel lifted his hand.
"She doesn't like to be hug by strangers." Gabriel said and let his koala become a kitten.
"Noted!"
Everyone look surprised as there's a commotion outside. It's probably the car that is been delivered. Jiro got out and he immediately fall in love with the latest Ferrari. He jump in excitement and sign the papers.

"That's too much." He mutter on her ear. She only winks. Maybe she had her purposes on buying a friend some expensive car.
Jiro couldn't help but to pull her into a hug and also Gabriel. Gabriel tap him signing him not to hug her too much.
She felt her eyes tired so she pull his sleeve indicating him that she's sleepy. After staying for some minutes, she became impatient. She keeps tugging him so he had no choice but to say his goodbye as he drives to their penthouse. She asked him to stop by the café.
Before entering the café, she already notice the sedan that was parked outside. She saw a man inside with two body guards behind him. She smirk and her hands starts itching. Gabriel notice it so he observe the man drinking coffee while talking to a woman in red elegant dress, her hair is packed into a tight bun—looking dangerous and seductive.
Sabrina almost stop in her tracks when she recognize the woman. She didn't look at their direction so she uses the mirror to glance at their direction. At first, Francisco didn't notice her but before she was notice, she snuggle on him and ask for a cold tea drink pointing towards it.
"Okay." He pull out his wallet. "What else?" She points to the dark chocolate cake. He bought a hot tea for himself and they settled on the corner sofa.
It didn't take long for their orders to arrive and she take her time in eating and feeding him as she read their lips. It was just a casual talk and then showing of documents. Why would they meet in this kind of public place?
She then look at him and their eyes met. She lock her eyes on him and sipped on her tea. Her expression was monotonous. No emotions at all and like she's staring at nowhere. She looks like she's thinking deep and not staring at him. She did that just to make him confuse.
Francisco frowns when he saw her staring towards their direction. Then she snapped her fingers.
"You just had a great idea?" Gabriel had read her and follow her lead. She wanted to use psychology tricks on her own to make her target confuse. She look at him with a bright smile and nodded. He patted her dotingly. "Let me know your plans on your business." She nodded with a childish smile.
They finish their food and drink and both of them left. He open the car door for her and she enter. He was about to walk around when he felt that someone was watching them so he look at the direction of Francisco and the lady in red. He acted like it was nothing as he walk around the drive way.
She then laugh as soon as he got in and had lock the door. He love her evil laugh and looked at her dotingly as her murderous eyes falls on the man inside the café.
He caresses her hair.
"My wife, how do you want him to die?" he asked her. She look at him.
"I want him to suffer than to allow him die instantly." He sneer.
"As you wish. But that man is known as the Almighty Boss. One of the strongest gang here in Asia."
"My husband, I could smash him anytime I want. But there should be some thrill. A cat doen't eat a mouse directly but rather play with it first."
"I will always be here for you and help you lift your weights no matter how heavy it is." He murmur to her and kiss her lips.
"Let's go so I can make love to you all night."
He drove the car while she continue staring at Francisco's direction through the side mirror. He will have to pay for everything he had done.
She will never forget those images in her head. The images that could make a teenager breakdown after witnessing. she nearly breakdown but she had to get up and plan thoroughly like a real psychopaths would do. Since she met a vicious man in her teen stages, she will become more vicious than he was.
