Arranged Marriage: To Hear Your Voice Chapter 123
Advertisement
Enzo was quiet as he drove his car to her house. She smile at him and was about to kiss him but he speak.
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't kiss you back." He told.
"But—we share the same moment… don't you feel anything at all?"
"I feel vulnerable." He told her staring at nowhere. "I already have a girlfriend and I only see you as my little sister." Enzo explain. Eunice was taken aback.
"You—girlfriend?" Eunice frowns.
"She is away and I am waiting for her. I'm sorry Eunice and I understand if you are angry at me."
Eunice calm herself before throwing tantrums and she smile like she understand him.
"No. I should be the one who apologize. I didn't know that you already have a girlfriend." Since the girlfriend is away, she could still linger around him. Seduce him and once they end up in bed she would have him in her palms, everything will be fine and that girlfriend would be kicked out somewhere. "But I'll see you tonight?"
Enzo nodded and Eunice got out. Once Eunice is away he smack his forehead.
"Fck! I'm sorry, Cat." He mutter. "Blame me for missing you so much."
Soon, he arrived in Gabriel's mansion, the one he bought for them. Since Sabrina's villa is secured and wasn't the one to receive guests, Sabrina settled in the mansion, there are family and relatives around and also few people who had manage to get an invitation card.
He fix Versace's bowtie and he pats him.
"We look handsome as ever." He said. He went to Sabrina's study room. Sabrina is vocalizing and then strumming on the guitar.
"Woah! It seemed like there will be a nice show tonight."
"I want to give those people who insults my husband that he married a disabled person a big slap on their faces." She said.

Sabrina has been hearing bad words from people about Gabriel who has been fooled by a disable person. Enzo sat down and look away.
"You look—like a dark cloud." Ethan noted and pat him.
"Hmm. My friend is outside." He said. He left her to socialize since that's what she wanted. Maybe it is a payment for his mistake a while ago.
"Who? The girly one? Daughter of the congressman?"
Enzo just nod and look at Sabrina who's focused on vocalizing and exercising her voice.
"When will they finish the task?" He asked her. Sabrina only gave him an innocent look. "You can send me there any time for help."
Sabrina put down the guitar and fix her dress.
"Enzo, it's more dangerous there than any other task I had given you. I need you here and I am doing this to protect you."
"I don't need protection." He said and pour himself a glass of wine. "I just want to protect you and Catriona. There's nothing else I ask for."
"Well, you should learn not to get involve in my matters if you want to protect me."
Ethan and Enzo both know that Sabrina wouldn't talk about the past. So they kept quiet as what Sabrina wishes. Soon, they got out and ready the stage. Gabriel was talking with his circle of friends who has been bad mouthing him behind his back. She had heard a lot of it. Mostly those women who has their eyes on him.
Enzo was tuning up the guitar and Eunice wave at him. He nods and keep tuning it until it was done. Then Ethan took the microphone.
"Okay, since I am a good speaker, I'll introduce the birthday celebrant tonight." Everyone laugh and they clapped their hands. "The Brother in law who has been spoiling my sister, happy birthday and I am sure that even it isn't your birthday, you are always happy." Ethan winks indicating something.

Gabriel scoff and look at his wife who is standing nearby and smiling at him. She winks and he wink back at her. He mouthed his love to her. Since there's a videographer in the party, it has been captured.
"I don't want to see their display of affection anymore even though they are far away." Ethan cleared his throat. "So, I just want to say—I don't want to make this party more like a gathering for businesses. I will be straight to the point since we will present a special performance." Then he snapped his fingers and suddenly, all of the lights were shut down. Everyone can't see anything at all.
Then there's a sound of guitar strumming followed by drums.
"I don't know, but I think I maybe falling for you
Droppin' so quickly maybe I should keep this to myself wait until I know you better…
I am tryin' not to tell you
But I want to, I'm scared of what you say
So I'm hidin what I'm feelin' but I am tired of holdin' this inside my head!"
I've been spending all of my time
Just thinkin' about ya'
I don't know what to do,
I think I'm fallin' for you..
I've been been waitin all my life and now I found ya',
I don't know what to do,
I think I'm falling for you…
I'm fallen for you…."
The song goes on, as she sang and strum her guitar the spot light was on her and she was facing him. She was singing with a microphone in front in her mouth. She keep her eyes on him as she sang along the lyrics.
Gabriel's heart was in a rush. He was surprise to hear that voice. The voice was cool, angelic and wasn't that powerful. She could change the power of her voice according to the song that she want to sing. Gabriel was like in cloud nine. Everyone were of course surprise to see his wife singing. She was supposed to be mute but she's singing for her husband.
After the song is done, everyone kept quiet.
"Hubby, happiest birthday." She start strumming her guitar again as she sings another song.
"Wise, men say…Only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you…
Oh, shall I stay? Would it be a sin?
If I can't help falling in love with you…
Like a river flows, surely to the sea
Darling so it goes, some things are meant to be
Take my hand… take my whole life too…
For I can't help… falling in love with you…"

Apostle of the Goddess
A disappointed man dreams of leaving the confines of Earth and living adventures in fantastic realms...Suddenly, his wish is granted... Albeit in a far different way from what he could have expected. An isekai genre story with a few elements from LitRPG. The overall tone will be jumping back and forth from light to dark. Expect a lot of references to anime, manga, games, etc.It is written in first-person view and will contain a side-story using a "real-life" character. Initially, the MC will be writing the story as a true journal, so the prologue and first chapters may appear a mess of things that already happened, journal entries, and afterthoughts. A few chapters in, it will change into a normal, first-person manner retelling of what happened (storywise the character "Records" what happened to him). This is a side project of mine, so I will be uploading a few chapters per month. Chapters may have a severe difference in length (albeit I will try to maintain them around 3k), but expect the overall monthly word count to be not less than 15k words.Author recommendation, if you intend to follow the story, read the new updates once a month (counting from the day the first chapter is uploaded). Content Warning: I do intend to include a few disturbing moments to emphasize the darkness of the human (and other beings) nature, so please consider that even though some chapters (especially the starting ones) are kinda like a comedy routine.
