Arranged Marriage: To Hear Your Voice

156 Sabrina's Game

Sabrina was satisfied that now Francisco has diverted his investigation to someone else. But she was a little guilty for using her husband. Yet he said that he'll handle Janine's matters and she will see her suffer.

She was standing in front of the whole mirror wearing an elegant night gown. Not too flashy just enough not to shine too much. Her husband was standing next to her fixing the handcuffs that she made specially for him on his birthday.

"Do not talk too much." He said. "only I have the right to hear your voice." He said possessively.

Sabrina's heart melt and she face him and fix his bowtie.

"Oh, my husband… you are the only one who could hear me moaning." She tease him. His face darkens.

"Don't provoke me this time, Sabrina. We are fully dress and you look stunning that I could make love to you with that dress on. But I am not that monstrous to tear up your dress—for now." He kiss her lips hard. "Stay away from me a little."

Sabrina laugh and did as told. Just flirt a little and a little provocation to her husband and he will give in. She knows that he couldn't resist her. It was her fault for making him like that. She seduce him well such that no woman can seduce him.

They enter into the limousine which he owns, of course and their valet drove to the gala that a famous tycoon running for Senator held for every business people. As they enter the gala—everyone was of course captivated by her. As known as Gabriel's wife, Mrs. Lawson. Gabriel was of course a doting husband and every tycoon was a little conscious about their body whenever they look at him and his beautiful, sexy wife.

"Sis!" Tony walk toward them and he look blooming. Then she found Veronica with Sylvia and she diverted her eyes to Tony. She receive a warm cheek to cheek from him. "Look dazzling as always." He said with a smile. Then he turn to Gabriel. "Bro we need to talk."

Gabriel nodded and bring his wife to their table. He brought her some wine and something to eat as he told her to sit there. He choose her finger food carefully and pull out his phone. For her not to get bored, he gave her his phone where there's a lot of games.

"Play well."

"Okay." She smile and choose criminal case game and start playing. Since she's an introvert and hate this kind of gathering, she put her earphones on and keep on playing ignoring everyone while her husband talk to Tony and Tony introduces him to Francisco and Sylvia.

Tony winks at Veronica. Veronica remain calm and just look at him. Tony's introduction was short and Tony reminds Gabriel about the proposal that was sent to them. Gabriel wasn't talking much and he listened carefully like he's trying to consider the proposal.

"I want to see other papers." Gabriel said quickly. He nodded at Francisco and he left. Gabriel smirk. Just as his wife planned. Once they are close to Francisco, it will be easy for them to smash him and torn him into pieces.

At Veronica's mind, she was satisfied with the charade. She was itching to be away from Francisco but Tony keep distracting her so it was a good idea as well that Tony was there as their pawn. But anyway, she will reward him tonight by herself.

"You seduce me well." Tony mutter in her ear after he left to Gabriel and Sabrina's table.

Sabrina was into the game and just notice that Gabriel was beside her before the program starts. Gabriel has always paid special mention and compliment to his wife. Gabriel was of course pleased. Just a compliment from others to his wife makes his ego boost up.

He rubbed her other shoulder to warm her while listening to the speech. She was busy with his phone while he was listening attentively to few speeches. Soon, it was eating time and Francisco approach their table. He glanced at Sabrina.

"Your wife is stunning and beautiful, she remind me of someone I know." Francisco complimented. Sabrina already predicted this thing to happen. She only glance at him and ignore him like she didn't know who he was.

Her actions makes Francisco comfortable. It only means that she didn't know him at all. She hasn't recognize him. But Sabrina's feet was tapping on the floor and she's ready to explode inside. She wanted to kill but she was patient so she remain calm. Gabriel was comforting her so she was calm.

"Thank you." Gabriel look at his wife. "She's not good with people so, please ignore her."

"I see." Francisco smile. "It is my pleasure to finally meet you, Mrs. Lawson."

Gabriel nodded in a very businesslike.

As soon as they left, Gabriel's face darkens. If his wife could endure the man's face, he would endure it as well. The man is a monster. Monster than any monster and demon than any demon. He would crush his world and everything. He hurt his wife. He hurt his wife's mother. He wasn't God but he want him to be punished.

Francisco was a little disappointed that Sabrina didn't recognize him. But what Marga found on Sabrina's room. A sketch of his face, Janine, Marga and Glenn (his right hand). Maybe Marga was hallucinating back then. When she was about to get it back, it was gone. Was Sabrina playing on them?

But there's no recognition from Sabrina's face and it was like he was nothing at all. Francisco sat down at his reserve table as he massage his forehead and stealthily peeking on Sabrina who was busy playing with Gabriel's phone. He can't read her. Not even her actions.

"Veronica, you are now dismiss. You can join your fiancé." Francisco said.

"Thank you sir." She went directly to Tony's table which is at Gabriel and Sabrina's. She sat down and show her dark expression. She's been holding herself and she acted thoroughly. Clean and without any flaws.

Tony noticed it so he was in a playful mode. He caress her hair indicating something. She smile at him sweetly and rolled her eyes then went into monotonous face.

Sabrina noticed it and bit her lower lip to avoid laughing. Veronica was a hell of a cold woman when it comes to men. But only Tony could break the iciness from her. He was the first man to stir up passion in her and the first one to capture her heart. She was surely lucky.

Then she thought of Catriona and Enzo. If it wasn't for her grandfather's orders, she wouldn't make them sign a contract about marriage and getting pregnant. Before it's too late, she has to do something about that for them. Tony could protect Veronica and she wasn't sure how long she will be around. She felt something bad will happen soon.

Francisco watch Sabrina's expression. She does looks like Anastasia a little but they have dissimilarities. From her face and behavior. Maybe he just missed her so much. If his plan worked out that time he would still have her. If he didn't left her there with Sabrina and Janine and took her away immediately from Philippines, she would still be alive and he could always see her whenever he wants.

Sabrina know that he was staring at her so she look at his direction and stare back. He nodded in very businesslike and she just stare at him for long then without any expression. It was odd and he felt like something was wrong with her.

He was curious. Did she recognize him? But there's no recognition in her eyes.
