=========================

"My lady, young lord is here to meet you!" Gabriella raised her brow as she heard the maid but there were no other signs of surprise on her face!

The room was so dark that the maid was having a hard time seeing her master! The only source of knowing her presence was the sound of the glass of wine she was filling every now and then!

"Ask him to wait in the meeting room and light a candle." The drowsy voice was still full of an imposing aura even when she stumbled a bit when she tried to stand up.

"Mistress!!" The eyes of the maid widened when she saw her ever so elegant and aloof lady stumbling on her feet after drinking so much and ran to help her but stopped when she heard the calm voice of the owner!

"What do you think you are doing? Huh? Do you think I would need your help for walking now?"

Or are you blatantly ignoring my orders?" Gabriella jerked the hands of the maid away as she walked forward with cold eyes while the maid fell on the floor and did not move an inch afraid that she would gain more ire from the woman!

Taking slow and elegant steps towards the stair, Gabriella stared at the man who was standing in the middle of the hall.

He had no will to go and sit in the waiting room. Even when he was the one to visit her, he still had so much pride! If only he knew!

She gritted her teeth yet did not let her expressions change!

"What brought you here, young master! I thought you did not want to see my face anymore!" Leo turned and stared at the woman who was behind his swapping!

Her mocking tone did not faze the darkness in his eyes when her steps halted for a second feeling the pressure but she continued nonetheless.

"I am here to learn a few facts!"

"And what are they? If you think that your visit will improve my behavior towards your so-called wife, then you are…"

"She is the girl you have taken away! The real daughter and heiress of the Thawyne family!" her eyes flickered but her face expression did not change at all and his eyes narrowed at her face!

"You already knew that. Don't you?`` This was more of a statement than a question when he glared at the woman who had no remorse for what she was doing!

"I was the one who gave that treasure to the maid when I gave her the baby!" yet she acted so cruelly! "That is why I wanted her to go for good! If only you would not have interfered! I would have gotten rid of her!"

She scoffed as she walked past him and sat on the sofa with her legs crossed on the chair!

To say that he was shocked would be an understatement! His hands clenched into a fist when he saw that she did not have any remorse. In fact, she knew who Evan was, yet she tried to send her to prison!

"You knew! Still you tried to prove her as a criminal!" Gabriella scoffed as she stared at the man as if he was a fool!

"Do not just blame me! Have you ever thought about why I did that? Have you not seen her striking resemblance to the late duchess! Even Eli and Eve did not look so similar!

What if anyone started to connect the dots? Do you think they would still treat you as a young lord if they knew the truth!

I am only protecting the plant whose seeds have been sown by me!" ha!

"How pathetic! Do you think I would hide the truth? I will tell Evangeline what the truth is and she is to decide whether she wants to tell the world or not!

But to think that you even tried to accuse for everything even when you knew she was your own blood! How cruel you could be!"

"Cruel you say! Ha! Hahahahahaha! I am only protecting my family! And if you call it being cruel than your parents are no different to me!

Tsk! And here I thought that you are finally here to apologize to me! If you are done, you can leave!" she looked away from his face with a snort!

But even then he did not leave the room and continued to stare at the distance as if making his mind whether to ask or not!

She could see the conflict on his face and wondered what had made him so confused when he had already asked the whole matter with her!

His head snapped back at her when she stood up, ready to leave!

"Wait! I am not done yet!" tilting her head, she stared into his eyes with a frown!

His shining eyes were looking hesitant and a bit gloomy yet she was not able to know what was going through his mind!

"So you are not here to confirm the truth in the first place? Then what do you want from me?" and here she thought that he had come to know about the truth from his investigation and knew that she was the one who had brought him home!

"If you are here to thank me for changing your life then do not worry! That was my responsibility and I am proud that you have become worthy of the title I have provided you!

I will make sure that you stay that way only!"

"I did not care about it at all! I am here to know.. I want to know who I am? He raised his head and finally started into her eyes with myriad of emotions on his face,

"I want to know about my real parents!"
