Chapter 362 Brother, Does Your Face Hurt Or Not?

Joshua, who came over to get a water cup, immediately perked up his ears upon hearing his father's name.

He quietly slowed down his pace and learned that his father was in this resort. Without caring to go to the living room to get a water cup, he immediately turned around and went back to the children's toy house to inform his brother and sister of the news.

"Sister, didn't you say you saw Dad kissing another aunt?"noveldrama

"I don't believe Dad would do that. Let's go and ask Dad to confirm. If it turns out that you were mistaken, you should include Dad in your drawings next time."

Joshua never wanted to believe that his father would do these things.

He wanted to go and verify it himself.

Leila put down the puzzle in her hands, her lively eyes darted around and caught sight of the seriousness in her brother's eyes. She nodded and said, "Okay, let's shake on it."

Hearing the conspiracy between his younger brother and sister, Jaxon reminded, "But Mom and John are outside, if we sneak out, Mom will definitely get angry."

"And besides, we are unfamiliar with this place. If we were to get lost, Mom would worry about us. And if we were to encounter bad people, we wouldn't be able to protect ourselves."

Upon hearing their brother's concerns, Leila and Joshua exchanged a glance and shrugged their shoulders in disappointment.

Because they felt that their older brother made a lot of sense.

"Sure, just call dad and have him come pick us up, right?"

Joshua thought he had come up with a brilliant idea. He immediately took out his children's watch and was about to call Gabriel. However, no one answered the call, which made him feel very sad.

Seeing his older brother really wanted to see his stepfather, Leila's eyes rolled and she said, "Brother, you can call Uncle Ma."

Recently, the person who has been with Gabriel is Matthew.

Joshua's hope was reignited by her words, so he quickly dialed Matthew's phone. The man, who happened to be smoking outside at that moment, was suddenly taken aback when he received Joshua's call.

"Are you also here?"

Matthew didn't expect Jaxon and Joshua to also come to Northfield, so he quickly passed the message back to Gabriel.

The silent private room.

Gabriel, who had had three rounds of drinks, remained unfazed as he looked at the old foxes around him. He listened to their constant probing words, with a smile on his lips that seemed elusive to others. No matter how others questioned him, he always managed to find vague words to blur the past.

Gabriel looked at Ivan, who was sitting right in front of him. When he had come in earlier, there were still handprints of a child on his shoulder, but now they had been dried by the indoor temperature and were no longer visible.

The small handprint reminded him of his daughter, who was far away in Akron, and a faint touch of tenderness appeared in his

eyes.

Today's dinner party was not a blind date at all, but a power game of back-and- forth.

After entering this compartment, all communication devices were not allowed to be brought in, which was also the reason why Joshua could never reach Gabriel's phone.

The first phase of communication ended, and Gabriel stood up to get some fresh air.

Matthew hurried over to tell Hazel and the children about the news in the vacation area. Gabriel's brow furrowed slightly, inexplicably reminded of the small handprint on Ivan's shoulder.

Before, I was puzzled by his meticulousness, but I was surprised to find that he even allowed the child to leave handprints on his

shoulder.

Mersi

Nowadays, whenever Gabriel thinks about the possibility that the little handprint might have been left by his own daughter, his expression becomes even worse when contacting Matthew.

Based on Leila's level of concern for her mother, Hazel will definitely not get close to people she doesn't like.

From the fact that she has only called him "uncle" until now, it can be seen.

Gabriel was still wearing a black suit today, and his disheveled hair partially concealed the dark color in his pupils, making his eye contours appear even more profound.

He asked in a deep voice, "Which building are they in?"

Matthew: "Eight buildings."

Theodore, who had been following Jasper all along, came out to find him. "Mr. Campbell, Mr. Sterling is asking you to go back."

Gabriel nodded.

He was unable to leave at the moment, and his phone was temporarily unable to turn on, so he could only ask Matthew to reply to Joshua's message.

"I went there later."

After speaking, he returned to the private room and continued with the following topic.

The people inside the compartment were all well-known upper-class members of the Northfield circle. The ones patrolling at the entrance were also elite individuals armed with weapons, their eyes sharp like a hawk, capturing every unfamiliar person without letting them slip by.

Even Matthew, if he wanted to make a phone call, had to leave the villa as all signals inside were blocked.

Joshua, who had received the news, suddenly brightened up

and said with a smile, "Dad said he will come later!*

Leila did not feel much joy upon Gabriel's subsequent arrival, but upon seeing the excitement in her brother's eyes, she still nodded in agreement.

Jaxon was also happy in his heart, after all, he hadn't seen his dad for a long time, and he missed him a lot.

Time passed by like water, minute by minute and second by second.

and the disappointment in Joshua's eyes was impossible to hide.

As the sun had already set, Gabriel still hadn't come Thinking about how Gabriel had stood her and her brother up because of another aunt, Leila pouted and approached Joshua, tugging at his sleeve. She whispered softly, "Brother, did our dad go out with another aunt?"

Cheap Dad was a person with a lesson from the past!

Joshua hesitated a bit and said, "I, I don't know, but since Dad promised us to come, he definitely wouldn't break his promise." He turned his head and looked at his mischievous sister next to him, grabbing her two ponytails and said, "Leila, you can't sow discord, Dad will definitely come, he definitely won't break his promise to us because of other aunts."

However, half an hour later, Joshua fell silent upon seeing Gabriel, who appeared with Elaina.

Leila held Joshua's hand and stammered, "Brother, does your face hurt?"

Joshua: “.....” The slap came too quickly.

She was lying on the sofa, looking into the living room, where Hazel was talking about wanting to see Gabriel, the child. When she turned around, her two ponytails swayed back and forth, lively and adorable.

Leila smiled at Joshua and said, "Brother, Leila can give your cheek a blow."

Joshua still wanted to deny it, but then he heard Leila say that the person who had kissed Dad before was the lady outside.

He felt like the sky had fallen down on his desire to have a family reunion of five.

Jaxon remained calm and patted his younger brother's shoulder reassuringly, "Maybe it was just Dad's friend. Let's go out and ask

first."

He was about to hold his sister's hand and go out together, but he saw her let go

of his hand and shake her head in refusal.

"Leila didn't go, you guys go."

She returned to the children's toy house in the villa, where there were many fascinating toys. Leila chose a small horse and sat on it, waving her hand gracefully to Jaxon and Joshua.

Entertaining herself was not a big deal for her.

Jaxon and Joshua exchanged a glance.

Joshua furrowed his brow, wanting to advise his sister, but heard his brother say,

“Joshua, we should respect our sister's choice. Let's go out and ask Dad first. If there's any misunderstanding, we can have Dad come over and talk to our sister."

He pondered and decided to give up, nodding his head.

As soon as they stepped out of the children's toy house, they saw Gabriel and

Elaina standing hand in hand.

They stood there dumbfounded on the spot.
