Nemesis Game

Chapter 62 Bastard

"Gabriel ... thank you." She choked up and called his name.

The man behind her continued to gently embrace her. He did not hold her tightly, but enough to give

her a sense of security.

His chest was warm and wide, as if it could accommodate all the harm in the world.

"Don't cry. You deserve the best." Gabriel reached out to hold her cold, shivering hand. His warm voice

cut through her dark heart like a warm sun.

Samantha's face turned white and tears streamed down her face.

"I hate him." Her hoarse voice seemed to squeeze out of her dry throat.

Gabriel's body stiffened and his amber eyes were burning with willful fire, "I know. I'll help you."

His words gave her strength. She slowly stopped crying while her brown eyes grew deep with the

darkness of the night.

"I won't let them go." She said word by word, and every word showed her great determination.

Since her love was worthless in his eyes, did she have to hold on to it?

No, she wanted revenge!

How could he? How could he still be so indifferent after knowing all the truth?

Did she really deserve to die compared to Peyton?

"I know. Whatever you want to do, I will help you." His attitude remained gentle and calm. It was as if

he didn't care about anything, and as if he only wanted to give her, a person on the verge of despair, a

simple warm hug.

This hug drew them closer to each other.

The faint scent of rosewood on him made Samantha cry even harder. She mumbled, "Thank you, at

least I'm not alone."

Gabriel was such a warm presence at a time when everyone had turned their backs on her.

He was not as bright and dazzling as the sun, but like the moon in the night sky, which could guide her

way forward.

Gabriel was about to say something when a man stepped out from the corner in front of them.

"Brother, you seem to be in good spirits. Instead of going to the banquet hall to entertain guests, you

are here cuddling with Ruben's woman. Aren't you afraid that Ruben will kill you?" The man's voice

sounded flirtatious with a smile.

Gabriel and Samantha were both stunned, and then Gabriel let go of her.

At that moment, the man in the corner came out. He was tall and erect. Because of the dim light, his

face could not be seen, and he was leaning against the flower stand looking at them with a red wine

glass in his hand.

Samantha's body was tense as a string. Brother? The only person who could call Gabriel brother was

the first young master of the Baker family, Luke Baker!

Luke was the eldest son of the Baker family, and the only son of the old master Baker's first wife, Iris

Lane. He was known as a playboy, who was a great eater, drinker, and gambler.

Gabriel just hugged her, and how much did Luke hear of what they said?

Gabriel kept expressionless. Although he looked a little displeased, he remained calm and composed.

"I'm not as happy as you are to be here eavesdropping on us," Gabriel replied nonchalantly.

Luke, who was in the darkness, gave a chuckle while he looked cold and stern, "Brother?"

Before Samantha could react, Luke had already rushed over from the darkness and swung his fist and

smashed it hard into Gabriel's face!

"What the hell are you? A bastard born of a whore. Calling me brother? Do you deserve it?" Luke

looked terrifying while he said coldly and slowly.

Gabriel was knocked straight back a step by the punch. By the light overhead, she saw blood flowing

from the corner of his lips.

He took a step back and leaned against the wall, then rubbed his forehead with his hand. He looked

like he was holding back his anger.

Samantha was scared out of her cold sweat by Luke's action, "Why did you hit him?"

Luke stood with his back to her. The dim yellow light fell on his shoulders, which made him even colder

and more appalling.

"Tonight is grandpa's birthday banquet. If you want to make a big deal out of it, then go ahead and hit

me." Gabriel didn't fight back, instead, he leaned lazily against the wall and continued to provoke Luke,

"That's all you can do anyway. You must be very angry to see Universal Entertainment being handed

over to me, right?"

He was clearly at a disadvantage, but he remained calm.

Luke's face changed and he gritted his teeth and said with hatred, "Is that so? How dare you say that,

you bastard! Try to see if I dare to beat you? Son of a bitch!"

Anger flashed in Luke's eyes. He yanked Gabriel's collar with one hand and smashed his fist at him

fiercely again!

Gabriel did not dodge, and he just calmly faced the pain of the flesh that was about to come.

Samantha's heart was palpitating with horror as she watched. Seeing that Gabriel was about to be hit

again, she rushed over and shielded Gabriel in front of her.

"Boom--" Luke did not hit Gabriel but punched Samantha in the face.

She grimaced in pain and couldn't stop falling backward.

"Samantha!" Gabriel was shocked, and something cracked slowly in his pupils.

Luke had no qualms about hitting her and punched Gabriel in the face again.

"Don't you know what you are? In the Baker family, you are just a dog at my disposal. Not only will I

beat your woman, but I will beat you too, you bastard! What can you do?" Luke said in a fierce voice.

Gabriel looked terribly grave and the smile at the corners of his mouth disappeared. He stopped Luke

with one hand and said coldly, "You want to make a big deal out of it? How dare you!"

"You bastard, you are not worthy to talk to me. I'm just better than you. You just got Universal

Entertainment. What are you arrogant about? Sooner or later, I will take it back!" Luke kicked him down This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

and punched him again.

Gabriel was punched and kicked by Luke on the ground, and the corners of his lips were broken. He

restrained himself so much that the veins on his forehead stood out, and his eyes burned with rage.

Samantha was dazed by the pain of the punch.

She hadn't expected Gabriel to be treated this way in the Baker family. How could she watch Gabriel

get beaten up? She looked around and then lifted the flower pot and smashed it into Luke's back!

A loud, crisp sound was heard, and then Luke let out a cry of pain.

Gabriel stood up from the ground. His chest hurt so much that he was a little unsteady on his feet. He

looked at Samantha, who was expressionless, then his face changed, and said urgently, "You go

quickly. Luke is just a mad dog. He will vent his anger on you."

Luke fell to his knees in pain at this point and looked gloomy.

Samantha clenched her fists with her eyes bright and deep. She said in a hoarse voice, "Gabriel, fight

back. How can he hit you like that?"

Hearing what she said, Gabriel was just silent, while the blood on the corner of his lips set off his pale

face.

Luke sneered, "Fight back? Does he dare? He is just a dog of the Baker family!"

Samantha's heart ached with shock. It turned out that not only was she wronged in the Moore family,

but Gabriel, the illegitimate son, must not be treated well in the Baker family either.

So Gabriel, even in the eyes of outsiders, was the perfect director of Universal Entertainment, but in the

Baker family he was beaten by Luke and could not even fight back.

It was not that he didn't want to, but he couldn't, or didn't dare.

"Don't worry about me. I'm one of the Baker family. They won't do anything to me." Gabriel casually

wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and walked over to check Luke's injuries.

Luke was actually not seriously injured. Because Samantha just smashed his back. Although there was

a little blood, Samantha did not dare to smash him to death.

If something happened to Luke, even Gabriel couldn’t get her off the hook.

"What will you do if I leave?" Samantha didn't want to leave him alone. Gabriel was more than a

lifesaver to her, but also a comrade in arms!

They were both treated the same way. She felt sorry for him.

Gabriel looked livid. He said to her anxiously, "I'll be fine."

With Nia here, no one dared to kill him.

Luke desperately kicked him away and got up from the ground with pain. He looked fierce, "You and

your lowly mother are a match. She clings to men, and you cling to women. Are you very proud of

being Nia's toyboy?"
