Billionaire Defiant Wife Chapter 679
Advertisement
Gabrielle was still lying under the bed, and her heart was beating fast as if her heart's in her throat right now.
She covered her heart to keep the sound to herself.
Click—
Jackson was getting close to Gabrielle.
"Mr. Oliver, because you broke into my room, I can call the police," Bryan tried to stop Jackson, but Jackson completely ignored his words.
Jackson was back in "Ten, nine, eight…."
Gabrielle bit her fingers so hard that her fingers will be broken.
"Out. Keep. Out. Keep," thought Gabrielle. She didn't know how to make a choice.
"What should I do?" thought Gabrielle
Because Gabrielle kept shaking constantly, the single bed was also shaking.
Gabrielle patted her left hand with the right hand, saying to herself, "Don't shake. Why do I keep shaking?"
"Three, two…" As Gabrielle said, the wind blew.
Gabrielle leaned against the door and waved to Jackson, "Mr. Oliver, excuse me. Are you looking for me?"
"What a stupid woman! She dares to get away from me. A few days passed, but now she shows up and stands before me. She also behaves politely. How dare you!" thought Jackson.
Jackson lowered his head, looking at Gabrielle and saying cynically, "I just heard that you lost your baby. Is it true?"
"Uh-huh. Do you believe it? You must know we don't have a baby. Is it the reason why you come to look for me?"
Jackson looked at Gabrielle coldly but said nothing. He was guessing what Gabrielle was thinking.
"Gabrielle…" Jackson lowered his head and said, "Since you were not in the apartment, I call you, but you neither answered or sent a message back. Do you think it is funny?"
Gabrielle swallowed hard. She couldn't argue with that.

"If I admit it, I should tell him the reason, but if I deny it, how can I explain to him? Cheat him? It is too hard for me," thought Gabrielle.
Gabrielle looked at Jackson as if she got hurt, her eyes flashing, and her lips shivering slightly, looking lovely.
"I… I'm sorry."
"You are really good at acting."
"I'm not acting," Gabrielle lowered her eyes, and her eyelashes fluttered, "Why do you leave me alone halfway?"
"I went back to pick you up, but you ran away. Why?"
"I…" Gabrielle didn't know how to explain.
If Jackson knew it was Gabrielle who told Avery the information, Jackson must kill her.
Gabrielle hesitated. After a while, when she wanted to say something, Bryan interrupted, "It is obvious that Gabrielle didn't want to go with you. Why do you want Gabrielle to answer you directly, Mr. Oliver?"
"Don't you want to go with me?" Jackson asked Gabrielle.
Gabrielle glanced at Bryan, thinking, "What's the matter with Bryan? Does he want to start a conflict between Jackson and me? How can I answer the question? I can't say I don't want to be with him, though it is true."
"Follow me," Jackson immediately grabbed her head and went out without hesitation.
Gabrielle was so excited that she threw the man's hands away and held the door tight with another hand.
Unfortunately, Gabrielle fell backward.
Rub-a-dub—
Gabrielle fell to the ground, and her butt fell first. She got so many pains that tears burst out.
The lights didn't turn on in the room. In the dark, Gabrielle seemed to see two hands.
Gabrielle waved her hand, pushing the man's hands away, "Don't come over. I don't want to go with you."
Pow—
Jackson pressed on the light switch, and then the light turned on all of a sudden.

Gabrielle was freaking out. She finally realized that both Bryan and Jackson wanted to lift her, but she pushed Bryan's hand away, not Jackson's.
Gabrielle looked around, finding Bryan and Jackson were all stunned.
"It is the room of Bryan, but there are many pictures about me attached to the wall. Why?" thought Gabrielle.
The pictures of Gabrielle posted on the wall, from a little baby to an adult, looking neat as if it was a wallpaper of the room.
In a picture, Gabrielle was washing the dog's body. Then, the dog was shaking its body, and she stopped the water from sprinkling with her hands. A picture was taken at that moment.
Looking at another photo, Gabrielle was drunk on her eighteenth birthday and fell asleep on the chair. Finally, Bryan carried her home. Still, Gabrielle didn't know who took the photo.
"When did he take it?" thought Gabrielle. She had no idea about it.
Gabrielle was profoundly scared when she saw so many pictures about herself.
"Bryan… I can't believe," Gabrielle would have called her crazy man, but she kept it.
She couldn't understand why Bryan did so.
It was no wonder that Bryan allowed Gabrielle not to go to his room.
Bryan looked embarrassed, too, and answered, "I have been crushing on you."
"Ah…" Gabrielle's saliva choked her.
She didn't know how to answer it.
Jackson immediately punched Bryan in his face and knocked him down.
Gabrielle kept silent.
As soon as Jackson's bodyguards heard the noises, they immediately went into the room, but Jackson waved and stopped them. He was quietly confident that he can deal with it.
"Are you crushing on Gabrielle?" Jackson said to Bryan proudly, "Although you are crushing on Gabrielle, you can't have her."
Jackson's mouth puckered as if he didn't think much of Bryan. When he bent and lifted Gabrielle, Bryan stood in front of Gabrielle and said,
"She can't go with you."
"Can't go with me? So she will go with you?" Jackson asked angrily. He was impatient now. He even wanted to kick Bryan away.
Fortunately, Gabrielle stood in front of Bryan immediately to stop Jackson.
Gabrielle was afraid of being kicked and closed one of her eyes.
"Get out," Jackson was indignant.
Gabrielle gritted her teeth, shaking her head, "Mr. Oliver, don't beat him. I will go with you."
Jackson stopped.
Bryan then asked in a low voice, "Gabrielle, do you want to go with him? If you don't want to go with him, I will…"
Gabrielle knew what Bryan was going to say, so she shook her head and said, "No, I would like."
She knew that it was the right choice.
Jackson was relieved, looked around, and said to bodyguards, "Take it down."
In the end, Jackson bent and carried Gabrielle on his shoulder.

School-life & Swordfights: A Clubs and Stubs Tale
Warning: Clubs and Stubs contains strong language and situations throughout that may not be suitable for younger readers. "This story takes place in a fantasy world with a modernish setting. It mainly follows four students of Hardires High School who are members of one of the greatest Team Arena Squads in the history of gladiatorial school athletics. Already two-time high-school world champions, they have entered their fourth and final year of high school in hopes of capturing a third straight world championship—something that no other school on the continent has accomplished. As they prepare for an upcoming match with a rival school, it becomes evident that keeping their two-and-a-half-year winning streak alive will be tougher than expected. As both personal and external problems abound for the student-gladiators, can they manage to keep it together under the constant pressure of being the perfect fighting unit? A blend of action, drama, adventure, and humor collide in this brand-new series!" Thanks so much for checking out my story! This is the first time that I've released any of my work to a public space so any feedback, be it positive or negative (but please be respectful if so) would be greatly appreciated. I'm hoping that this story is only the beginning of a long-running series of short stories set in the Clubs and Stubs universe. Temporary Book Cover Design by David Watson The release schedule is rather tentative, but the goal is to release a chapter every 2-4 days. I want to make sure that every scene is the best it can be before it’s released, so it may take a bit longer especially if it's a longer chapter. However, no chapter should take more than a week to be released. Each scene varies in length, but are usually between 1,000 to 2,000 words.
