A Vengeful Ex-Wife novel Chapter 291

Inside the room, Gabriela was standing in front of the window and enjoying the scenery outside. Hearing the noise, she turned around.

"Good day, ma'am. Here is the fresh brewed coffee you ordered."

Gabriela took a look at her coffee and asked, "Pretty soon, isn't it?"

"Yeah." Maria put the coffee on the table, stood up, and answered truthfully, "Your timing is quite good. When you came, I was making coffee. I'll bring it to you when it's ready."

Sure enough, as James' biological mother, Gabriela had many similar features to his, especially the emotions between her eyes and brows and her expression.

Gabriela looked at the woman in front of her, who acted neither humble nor pushy, and said in a calm tone, "You are the boss. Do you always serve the guests in person?"

"It's my pleasure."

The door of the private room was pushed open again. It was Summer who pushed the door open, and James followed her in.

He looked at the two women in front of him and told Maria directly, "Same as hers."

Maria rolled her eyes at him in an angle where Gabriela couldn't notice. James didn't want to go to so many high-end clubs or coffee shops, but had chosen her place. She wondered what he was doing.

"One moment, please." She turned around and left.

The door of the private room was closed. When he looked away, James saw that Gabriela was looking at him. "Have a seat," he said.

"She has been very popular in the financial circle of H City in the past two years."

Of course, James knew whom she was referring to.

"Sure." He didn't explain anything.

Gabriela sat opposite him, picked up the coffee brought by Maria, and smelled it. "Why did you ask me out today?"

"How does Mitchell Shen treat you?"

"Are you caring about me?" asked Gabriela with a faint smile, but her eyes remained serious.

"Cooper asked me to ask this question." If he wanted to know, he would have someone investigate it directly.

Gabriela looked at his face and said, "If you have anything to tell me, go ahead."

James nodded. "I found out what had happened that year when I investigated Judy. Nothing happened between you and Mitchell Shen at that time. Why do you admit to my father that you have cheated on him?"

"I just didn't love him anymore," said Gabriela indifferently.

"Do you still love Sebastian Xi?"

"Does that still matter?" Gabriela didn't intend to answer. "Did you ask me out because you wanted to know what happened between us in the past?"

James didn't answer but asked, "Who is Norman Shen's father?"

Gabriela didn't drink the coffee. She put the coffee mug back and said in the same tone, "Mitchell Shen."

"There are not many good days left for Judy. If you are willing to solve the misunderstandings with my father..." James meant to ask her to return to the Xi family.

"I don't want to," Gabriela refused bluntly.

James fell into the silence.

After a while, he asked, "What makes you so cruel to leave your two biological sons alone?"

"Mr. Xi, are you blaming me? I don't think you are a person who needs the family affection and maternal love." Gabriela sneered.

Everyone in H City knew that James was cold and arrogant. He treated everyone, including his family in the same way.

"I really don't need it."

Gabriela's heart skipped a beat, and her nails cut into her palms.
