Chapter 89
Gerald seemed like a different person now, which made Matthew overjoyed.
"Gerald is a good man," Sabrina answered.
He was genuinely kind to her, and she couldn't deny that.
"So, what do you see in him?" Matthew asked.
She pondered seriously before answering, "He's good-looking and comes from a good family. He's constantly improving himself and has a pure heart. Most importantly, he treats me well. I like being with him."
Whenever she was with him, she didn't have to worry much.
As Gerald came downstairs, he heard what she said and happily approached her. "Sabrina, why are you here?"
"You didn't answer my call," Sabrina answered. She didn't want to expose him in front of Matthew.
He was no fool. He glanced at his father and said, "You continue what you were doing. Sabrina and I have things to discuss."
With that, he pulled her away.
Gerald immediately remarked when they got to the small living room upstairs, "Don't scold me. If I didn't know about it, I could let it slide. But if I knew and didn't do anything, that would be unfair to you."
"I'll handle this matter myself," Sabrina responded.
Though, she was moved by his words. She could tell that he genuinely cared for her, unlike Nelson.
"I know what I did was wrong. But this is the only thing I could do since there's no more evidence now," Gerald explained. "Sabrina, don't feel burdened by this. If your family was here, they would've made the same choice."
He knew Pamela did it, but the law couldn't punish her without evidence.
As she stared at him without speaking, tears welled up in Sabrina's eyes.
He grew embarrassed under her gaze and scratched his head awkwardly. "Don't worry, I was very careful. Nothing will happen. I just wanted to teach her a lesson so she wouldn't bully you again."
"Okay." She suddenly remembered his promise of being there for her, and he kept his word.
Sabrina and Gerald chatted briefly and decided to end the matter with Pamela.
He agreed and invited her to stay for dinner.
Since Matthew was going to cook for her, she couldn't refuse his invitation.
Gerald was glad.
He hadn't told Sabrina that he couldn't bear Nelson letting Pamela bully her, so he intervened to teach Pamela a lesson. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
He didn't mention it to avoid making her sad.
After dinner, Sabrina stayed for a while to chat with Matthew and Gerald. When she left, it was almost 10 o'clock.
When Nelson learned of this, he was reading on the sofa.
Since their argument, Sabrina had returned to her own place, leaving behind only a few clothes in the guest room.
"Couldn't she wait until we're officially divorced?" He was upset.
Dylan said, "I don't think there's anything going on between Mrs. Tucker and Mr. Ingram. Besides, you didn't wait for the divorce before getting involved with Pamela…"
A cold glare silenced Dylan before he could finish his sentence.
Nelson closed his book and rubbed his aching forehead. After some thought, he went upstairs to get the emerald pendant.
Dylan didn't quite understand his intention.
"Auction the emerald pendant online," Nelson said.
"What?" Dylan replied.
"We can't rely entirely on Pamela, right?" Nelson said.
He believed that as long as his beloved saw the emerald pendant, she would come to him.
"Okay." Dylan understood his choice.
No matter how great or charming Sabrina was, she couldn't compare to Nelson's beloved.
