Chapter 28

When Gabriel told me that we would be visiting his family during their weekly barbecue, I didn't think it would be this soon.

Yesterday was hectic at the office. It was clear that Gabriel had an entourage of female employees that wanted a piece of him. To be honest, I didn't mind. He couldn't help that he was smoking hot. What I minded was some of the hateful and jealous looks I got from some of those women.

If I had thought that Milly was the only one that wanted to stake her claim, well I had been wrong. I can't tell you the number of times I was stopped by some women when Christopher had sent me down to complete a task.

Apparently, the two women Gabriel had scolded were responsible for spreading the news that I was Gabriel's new woman. I guess his hand on my lower back said it all. The good news is that they all thought that I was a fleeting hookup, and he would soon get tired of me.

They felt it was their place to warn me not to get too comfortable around here because Gabriel would get tired of me in a few weeks. I wonder how they'll react once word gets out that I am his wife.

When the clock struck five, Gabriel surprised me by coming home with me. That's when he told me about the weekly barbecue at his parent's house. I spent the whole night hyperventilating and thinking of all the things that could go wrong.
