a single word.
Two bodyguards stepped forward, their batons in hand, accompanied by muffled groans as they fell down, until the sound of bones cracking could be heard. People were exhausted, yet they stubbornly refused "Paul, how many years have you been with the Lewis family?" The man who was called trembled as he said, "Eight, eight years." Paul was the son of the Campbell family's driver and nanny. If we were to place him in ancient times, his status would be that of a born member of the household. He was very intelligent and knowledgeable.
He was quite impressive, climbing all the way up to the position of Scar's deputy, and also bringing back a lot of news about the Lewis family.
Every time is true news, which indeed leaves no doubt about loyalty.
"Eight years, indeed a long time, long enough for your child to be three years old, and parents still don't know, right?"

Gabriel's calm and indifferent words pierced the man's heart like a sharp knife. He trembled like a sieve with fear, but he still pretended to be calm, gritting his teeth and insisting, "Mr. Campbell, I don't know what you're talking about. I don't even have a partner, so how could I have a child?"
Gabriel:"Is it?"
The man uttered two light words, and immediately a phone appeared in front of Paul. His pupils dilated to the extreme when he saw the child tied up inside.
He hurriedly looked up to see the person in the corner, knocking his head and leaving a blood mark. "Mr. Campbell, I was wrong, I was wrong!"
"You asked me to do anything, and I agreed. My son is innocent, please spare him!" The man still hid half of his body in the dim corner, his posture lazy like a hibernating lion, but his whole body exuded a cold and indifferent chill.
Gabriel didn't say a word, but Paul's fear kept accumulating in his mind. As the man stood up, he seemed to see his three-year-old child dead in front of him. Paul wanted

"It was Charlie Bennett, from the Bennett family in South End!"
Paul thought that if he spoke, the child would be spared, but he saw the child being thrown directly into the sea, and he was devastated.
"Why! I said, why did you have to treat him like this!"
He was met with another blow when he answered.
The people who were recruited by Gabriel at the same time as him, holding sticks, sneered

coldly, "Paul, when you betrayed Mr. Campbell's wife and children to Scar, you should have known that this moment would come."
Paul's face was ashen, and before he passed out, his heart was filled with regret. The younger brother walked up to the man who was smoking outside the factory and reported, "Brother Ma, this kid fainted. What should
What should we do with that child?" The man extinguished the cigarette butt and put it into a sealed bag, "Send it to his parents, let them seal their mouths tightly."
"Clean up and call the police."
All traces in the factory were completely wiped away, not a single cigarette butt or ash was left. Only the unconscious Paul and the evidence of his wrongdoing remained.
Not long after, the sound of sirens rang out.
In the back seat of a black Maybach, the man's entire face was concealed in the darkness of the car. The car swiftly drove into a quiet and secluded path, heading towards the hospital. Inside the car, the man leaned back on the leather seat and closed his eyes, lost in thought. The mottled light from the street lamp outside the window cast a haze on his delicate face, as if adding a layer of unclear mist around him. Charlie Bennett, Dylan's grandfather.
A cunning old fox with a heart darker than ink, he was a formidable figure before he retired. The Lewis family, able to stand strong in the black zone for so many years, had a complex web of relationships.
The demons and monsters behind the scenes were spread across various fields, from celebrities and the powerful to street thugs. If one wasn't careful, they would easily fall into their trap.
The Lewis family today, except for the runaway Gianna, all used to operate sewing machines inside.
And he, the mastermind behind the big fish caught by Gianna, has now been mostly caught, unexpectedly involving another Charlie at a critical moment.
Charlie had a close relationship with the Scott family of Northfield in the past, and the Bennett family of today still maintains the same connection with the business. Relying on the big tree of the merchant, this person found it a bit troublesome to move. The next morning.
Hazel arrived at the hospital just as the sun was rising. As she pushed open the door and entered, she saw a man in the living room putting on his pants.
Hearing the noise at the door, Gabriel didn't turn around. There were bodyguards guarding the entrance, and no one else was allowed in. He continued to fasten his belt and picked up the shirt beside him, carefully buttoning it up one by one.
The clothes and pants he had just changed out of were placed on the sofa next to him.
The man's hair was still wet and dripping with water.
He dressed himself and sat on the sofa, taking the towel from the side and wiping while watching her."What are you standing there for? Come in and sit."

Hazel had an illusion that the man in front of her seemed to have returned to the state of their secret marriage five years ago.
Cold and distant, as if devoid of
any emotions.
She walked over to the farthest couch from him and sat down."How is Joshua?" Gabriel:"The fever has subsided, I can be discharged this afternoon. If you're still worried, you can let the child stay for two more days."
Hazel glanced at him speechlessly and continued, "Bringing them back home would allow for better care."
The man did not speak, and he just looked at her in silence, for so long that she felt the air was carrying something inexplicable.
Hazel quickly got up and went to the ward to see Joshua.
The child's body temperature had returned to normal.
When Joshua woke up and finished breakfast, Hazel stayed in the room with him, while Gabriel sat on the nearby sofa working.
"Mom, I'm sorry for making you and dad worry."
Hazel put down the storybook in her hands and gently touched the child's head, her with tenderness, upon hearing the sudden apology.

Joshua has never liked taking medicine or getting injections since he was little. Every time he got sick, he would cry the loudest. This time, he even used his own body as a bargaining chip.
"It's okay, Mom understands that your intentions were good."
"But we can't do this anymore in the future, having a fever is very uncomfortable. Mom, Dad, as well as my older brother and younger sister, all worry about you."
Joshua nodded, promising that he would never do it again.
Through the incident of Joshua getting a fever from using the air conditioner, Hazel also realized that she couldn't resist Gabriel's presence too much.
At least in the eyes of two children, he had always been a good father.
But when she agreed to let Gabriel into the Robinson family, this man started coming less often, and even stopped picking up the children in the morning.
On the surface, it was a trip abroad to handle official business, but as Hazel looked at the newly added circle of bodyguards outside the villa, she couldn't help but feel that something else had happened. Especially before Gabriel left, she was advised not to go out during this period, let alone go out with Dylan!
She initially thought that the man was jealous, but there was no trace of jealousy in his dark ink-like pupils, rather, there was a sense of seriousness.
An invisible sense
sense of tension permeated the vicinity of the Robinson family. Hazel stood behind the sheer curtain of the study window, looking at the black cars not far below, lost in thought.
Hazel called John and asked him to find out what happened to the Campbell Group. Soon after, he received unexpected news.
