From Secret Wife to Queen of Her World by Anonymous

Chapter 15 Set Up a Tent

After Gabriel took his two sons back to their room to rest, Hazel, who resided across the hallway, picked up the phone and dialed John’s number. She requested that he find a lawyer to assist her in a custody battle.

She would fight for custody, but as for Joshua, Hazel was still angry with him. She decided to wait and see his subsequent performance before making a decision.

For now, she wouldn’t be too warm to him.

At the same time, in fact, Lucia had been paying attention to the movements next door.

Gianna, who lived next door to Gabriel’s room, couldn’t wait to ask about the result, but she was politely refused by him with the excuse that “the kids. are taking a

taking a nap.”

When the three children woke up from their nap, Lucia came over to take them downstairs to play. Just as they stepped out, they ran into Gabriel.

Jaxon and Joshua both changed their clothes.

After waking up, full of energy, Leila headed towards Jaxon.

Jaxon took a small step back to avoid bumping into her.

Gabriel swiftly interposed his legs to counteract Jaxon’s backward momentum, thus avoiding the risk of the two children toppling over.

Leila, with her deer–like starry eyes, blinked as she looked at her older brother who was much taller than her.

Her voice was filled with love for Jaxon. “Jaxon.”

Gianna held several kites in her hands, and she felt very unhappy when she saw this scene- She thought Gabriel would refuse, but Gabriel nodded. She was so angry that she almost tore the kite in her hand.

Joshua heard his older brother say this, so he quickly changed his mind and said, “Dad, I want to go with Jaxon.”

He tentatively reached out to hold the other hand of Leila, holding it carefully, afraid of hurung her.

Leila looked at him and hesitated for a moment before finally holding his hand. Lucia approached Hazel closely and chuckled, “Darling, your three little babies are so cute. I like them!”

Hazel glanced at her and said, “If you like children so much, why don’t you have one yourself?” Lucia hurriedly waved her hand and resisted, “No, no, I already have Leila as my goddaughter. That’s enough. Do you see Gianna’s expression? She’s pissed off.”

At this moment, Leila stood in front of the elevator and turned around, saying, “Mom, come on.” Hazel hooked her lips and said, “I’m here, baby.”

Gianna gritted her teeth in frustration as she watched Gabriel’s back in front of her. He didn’t
