The Billionaire's Regret: His Secret Wife Turned Medical Genius novel Chapter 48

Gabriel looked down at Emily, his eyes filled with contempt. He knew her all too well. The Sterling Group was her greatest weakness.

He expected to see the color drain from her face, to witness sheer panic. But he saw nothing of the sort.

Instead, Emily burst out laughing. In fact, she laughed so hard, tears began to fill her eyes.

She wiped a tear from the corner of her eye, and when she looked back at Gabriel, her gaze was sharp and clear. "Then let Sterling Group go bankrupt."

Gabriel's smug expression vanished. He stood there stunned, and his mind turned blank.

He couldn't make sense of what she had said.

Emily had to be bluffing.

But her eyes looked empty. There was no fight left. It was like she just didn't care anymore.

In the end, Emily pushed past him and walked away, leaving him standing there alone.

For the first time, Gabriel felt a chilling sense that he was losing his grip on her, completely.

…

Back at Gabriel's villa, Amelia walked out of the kitchen in a silk nightgown wearing a concerned look.

Gabriel took off his tie and coldly said, "Don't come here unless necessary."

Amelia's smile dropped. This wasn't the welcome she'd imagined, and she quickly put on a sad look.

But Gabriel didn't even glance her way. At that moment, he was suddenly sick of her constant acting.

He poured himself a drink and said, "I know you started those rumors at the hospital." He swirled his drink and continued, "You can play your games, but don't overstep my boundaries."

Amelia froze.

Gabriel knew? Then why had he gone along with it in front of everyone? Why had he let her play the fiancée?

Amelia composed herself and softly said, "Okay, Gabe. I understand." Then, she carefully asked, "But… Is it true that Emily wants to divorce you?"
