Chapter 59

Gabriel orders a whiskey on the rocks, and watches me taking shots with my friends. While I was against it earlier, I didn’t mind losing control now that I knew Gabriel was here with me.

At my fourth one, he stops me. “Okay, that’s it.” He snatches the little glass away from me and gulps my drink. “Have you ever heard of alcohol intoxication?”

“From four shots?” I pout.

“Yes. Besides, you’re buzzed enough. Enjoy it.”

“Okay, dad.”

A little smirk spreads over his lips, and I knew just what was coming. I gave him the opening myself. My cheeks heat. “Don’t say it. Don’t say it. Just don’t.”

He laughs.

“You both are so cute. Mike gushes, leaning on the table to watch us.

Gabriel cuts him a glare. “Did you just call my wife cute?”

“No, Sir. I meant the two of you are cute. As a pair. Not Sofia. She isn’t cute.” He immediately straightens himself, all nervous.

I shake my head.

Gabriel raises an eyebrow. “So you think my wife is not cute?”

“No, I mean she is. Very. But only platonically to me. To you, it’s different. He rambles.

“Leave him.” I look at my husband squarely.

He chuckles. “It’s fun.”

“Only to you.”

“I know. That’s the best part.”

I shake my head. “You’re insufferable.”

“You suffer me just fine.”

“You’re lucky I do.”

He leans ahead, kissing my nose. “Should we
