Chapter 495: Chapter 495 - Please Stay Out of This

"It’s a dangerous life. With all the money they have, they can always pay for protection," Laura finally said. With that notion, all the guilt from before instantly disappeared.

At the other side of the line, Sabrina was nodding her head in agreement. "You have a good point. So now, let’s focus on planning another wedding. I will send the message across."

Their kids were rich, but the parents still sponsored their weddings, which is why Sabrina had to inform the others.

"Alright. Thank you and..." Laura paused, not knowing how to make her request.

"What?" Sabrina encouraged her. Laura took a deep breath before speaking.

"They want the wedding to be at The Queen’s Garden." She knew how much The Queen’s Garden meant to Sabrina and was not aware that it had recently been opened to the public, though it was very expensive.

"The Queen’s Garden it is," Sabrina readily agreed. This would be the first wedding to be held at her special garden, and it boosted her excitement.

When Sabrina ended the call, she dialed Matilda and Lizzy on a conference call. "We have a joint wedding coming up."

Anticipation brewed from the conference call. "Let me guess. Larry and Lambert," Matilda said. It wasn’t hard to guess since those two had women they loved.

Their wedding was indeed expected. "You are right," Sabrina confirmed from her side of the line.

Matilda was happy but couldn’t help feeling sorrowful for her first son.

"I wish that Mark would get married too," Matilda said, adding, "he still hasn’t brought any woman home."

"Well, I saw an engagement ring on Jasmine’s finger, and when I asked her about it, she said I will soon know about it. I don’t know why she’s keeping it a secret when she already accepted a man’s ring, and I’m beginning to think it’s fake," Lizzy lamented from her side of the line, adding,

"I wish that Jasmine would also get married."

Sabrina was disturbed by the worries of her sister and best friend, but thinking about what was happening between Giselle and Robert, she felt that all hope was not lost.

"Who knows, miracles can happen," she encouraged them. But Lizzy was still disturbed, asking,

"Aren’t you worried about Robert anymore?"

Sabrina smiled from her side of the line, except that they couldn’t see it. "No. I suddenly believe in miracles. Let’s meet later to plan the wedding."

The two other women on the conference call agreed, and as Matilda suddenly asked, "Have you informed Aria?"

Aria was the only one among the family who wasn’t related by blood or married to either of their men.

She, however, earned her position through hard work, loyalty, and love. "I will call her now."

Sabrina ended the conference call and dialed Aria’s number as the latter said, "Sabrina, I was just about to call you."

"What is the problem?" Sabrina was instantly flooded with worry as she asked from the end of the line.

Aria was speaking in an undertone, away from where Robert sat waiting patiently for Giselle. "You called, so I guess you should speak first," she held back and said. Sabrina smiled and announced,

"Larry and Lambert are ready to get married, and they want a joint wedding."

Aria was so happy, as if it was one of her children getting married. Due to how she struggled for a child after marriage, she was happy that Giselle was considering leaving rather than aborting the child.

How she wished that Giselle would also get married to the man she loved, but at the moment, that hope was gone.

Nevertheless, she was very happy about the pending joint wedding. "That is good news. We have to meet to plan the wedding, right?"

"Yes, so tell me what the problem is," Sabrina reminded her. Aria’s expression turned sorrowful.

"Robert is here."

Sabrina stiffened slightly, not knowing whether Robert’s presence there was for good or bad.

"What does he want?"

Aria was speaking in a hushed tone. "He insists on taking Giselle to the office, but you know her condition. It would be better for her to be away from him. Can you please speak some sense into him?" Aria politely requested, not wanting Robert’s presence to worsen what Giselle was already going through.

Sabrina knew a lot of things Aria didn’t, so she couldn’t agree but couldn’t refuse either. "Let me get Robin’s help instead," she said, trying to play it safe and not reveal everything.

"Okay," Aria agreed, trusting that Sabrina would know best how to handle her son. A few minutes later, Robert received a call from his father and didn’t seem happy about it.

"What is the problem, Dad?" He asked in annoyance. Robin didn’t want Robert to know about Aria’s involvement in trying to get him out of the house, so he asked,

"Where are you?"

"At Giselle’s residence. I’m taking her to the office," Robert said honestly, hoping that his father would be happy about his progress.

He was rather disappointed by Robin’s response. "Can you give her a break? She wouldn’t be comfortable around you since she doesn’t know that you are responsible for her predicament."

He wasn’t expecting his father to discourage him from seeing the woman he loved. Anger laced his tone. "Dad, please stay out of this."

"I..."

"Please, Dad, this is my life," Robert cut his father off. Robin was speechless.

"Fine. Bye." He quickly ended the call, saying to the anxious Sabrina, "I think it’s high time we stay out of their relationship."

Sabrina felt empty that she couldn’t help Aria this time, rehearsing an excuse in her mind as she dialed Aria’s number.

Aria answered the phone on the first ring. "Sabrina, he still hasn’t made any attempt to leave, and Aria is almost ready. Even if she can’t drive, I would rather send a driver to take her."

Sabrina felt helpless about everything, hoping that keeping Robert’s wrongs a secret would not eventually destroy their friendship.

Still, she felt that Robin was right, and it was high time they allowed the youth to handle their own affairs.

"Aria, please don’t worry about anything. Just have a little faith that everything will be fine," she said softly. But getting no response, she grew anxious.
