Awakening the War God novel Chapter 21

Chapter 21 Beautiful Siblings 

Widow and spinster. 

These two seemingly contradictory words perfectly described Stella. 

At that point, Gabriel was genuinely interested in her. 

And by interest, it wasn't a sexual one. 

"Well, you passed my test, kid. Congratulations! You're my little brother now." 

Gabriel grinned, patting Thomas on the shoulder. 

Originally, he had no intention of taking on a sidekick, but this guy was quite interesting. 

It wouldn't hurt to have someone to play with and pass the time when there was nothing else to do. 

"Thank you, boss!" 

Thomas was so thrilled that he almost hummed a song out of professional habit. 

"Wait a moment!" Gabriel took out his phone and walked to the side to make a call to Leon. 

The two of them quickly exchanged a few words. 

Before Gabriel ended the call, a faint smile appeared on his lips. 

He then beckoned to Thomas. 

When Thomas walked over, Gabriel narrowed his eyes and smiled. "Tom, now I want you to go find someone with the recording. Remember, this is my first task for you. Don't mess it up!" 

"Boss, don't worry. It'll be done perfectly!" Thomas assured him, rubbing his bald head with determination. 

The first task was crucial, as it represented his sincerity. 

He would give it his all, no doubt about it. 

Thomas took the order and left. 

Gabriel watched and couldn't help but smile. 

He hadn't expected to take on another underling. 

The scene was getting livelier. 

The past days of tranquility and ease seemed to be gone. 

Soon after, Gabriel arrived at Ava's house. 

This time, he followed proper protocol and knocked on the door. 

Following hurried footsteps, the door swung open. 

Ava playfully poked her head out. "Darling, you're here! Come on in!" 

She smiled, revealing her adorable dimples. 

Her face flushed a little, tinged with a hint of shyness. 

Gabriel went in and looked up. 

As expected, Mia was there too. 

Dr. Mia sat upright on the couch, her gaze as cold as ever and tinged with anger. 

"Dr. Mia, you're here too!" 

Gabriel narrowed his eyes and smiled, secretly acknowledging that these two ladies were a pair of stunners. 

One was lively, while the other was icy. 

If he could have them both, he would experience supreme pleasure. 

Mia remained expressionless, but her words carried a hidden meaning. "I dare not be absent, for I have a ton of questions to ask you. Really, are you my patient or the CEO of Apex Bank?" 

"Your patient?" Ava looked puzzled. "Mia, is Gabriel your patient?" 

From the beginning to the end, Mia never told Ava that she knew Gabriel. 

The secret remained unspoken, even just now. 

"Yes!" Mia nodded indifferently, her pretty eyes fixed on Gabriel. 

Ava blinked in bewilderment. 'Gabriel is your patient? What is going on?' 

Gabriel casually sat opposite Mia, earnestly declaring, "To be honest, it was only today at the hotel that I discovered you two are siblings. I was quite shocked, as I had no prior knowledge. Seriously, apart from both being beautiful, what resemblance is there between you two?" 

From a purely physical standpoint, they didn't resemble each other at all. 

"We are half-sisters, sharing the same father but different mothers." 

Ava came over and sat down next to Gabriel, whispering, "Mia, what illness does Gabriel have?" 

She was more curious about Gabriel's condition.
