Trading My Ex for His Uncle by Hello Spring

Chapter 1123

"Then what about you? What are you going to do?" Wren asked, her face etched with sadness and pain as she looked at Gabriel.

No matter what happened, Gabriel was her only son. If he couldn't make it out of this situation, she felt her own life would lose its meaning.

Gabriel's expression remained indifferent. "What happens to me is none of your concern. Just take care of yourself."

"What kind of nonsense is that? How can I not care about you?" Wren demanded.

Gabriel glanced at her, his eyes narrowing slightly. "Even if you want to care, you can't do anything about it.

Wren's face drained of color, and she stared at him, her lips trembling. "Why do you sound like you're saying your last words... Gabriel, don't scare me like this."

Gabriel chuckled bitterly, meeting her gaze. "Even if I don't get the death penalty, I'll likely be sentenced to life. What's the difference between that and being dead?"

"Gabriel, even if you're sentenced to life, I'll wait for you out here. You must promise me you won't do anything foolish. I couldn't handle it," Wren pleaded.
