He Used Me As A Testing Tool Chapter 05
In that instant, Gabriel felt all the blood in his body run cold.
His gaze fell on a dust cover in the corner of his office.
Inside was the custom-made dress he had prepared half a month ago.
For the Presley Group’s banquet next week, one that would determine his company’s future, he had ordered a custom-made dress for Julianna.
He had even carefully planned how he would introduce her to the influential figures at the event, determined to make it clear that Julianna would be his future wife.
But now, this devastating news hit him so hard his mind went blank.
A sense of dread spread through his entire body.
Gabriel stumbled out of his office and rushed to the private hospital.
The moment he entered, he grabbed a nurse, his eyes bloodshot. “Where is the woman who was brought in yesterday afternoon? Her name is Julianna Winslet!”
The nurse was startled by his fierce expression and looked at him warily.
“Sir, please calm down. This is a hospital. What is your relationship to the patient?”
Gabriel panted heavily, almost grinding his teeth.
Gabriel panted heavily, almost grinding his teeth.
“I’m her fiancé, Gabriel Austen. I’m asking you where she is!”
The nurse froze for a moment, and a trace of contempt appeared on her lips.
She was the same nurse who had taken care of Julianna the entire time when Ryan’s parents brought her in for emergency treatment the day before.
“So you’re her fiancé.
“She was drugged yesterday morning. To stay conscious, she cut her own arm until it bled heavily.
“When she was lying in bed with over 20 stitches, where were you?
“You were the one who brought her in the afternoon, too, saying she needed a purity check, right?
“Do you even know how much damage that drug does to a woman’s body? It could leave her infertile for the rest of her life!”
Gabriel’s body swayed, his face turning pale.
“Over 20 stitches? Making her infertile?”
His legs gave out, and he almost collapsed to the ground.
Why would he want to harm Julianna? He loved her dearly.
Thinking about it, he realized it was all because of jealousy.
When Gabriel saw her locked in the same room with Ryan for an entire night, the fear of being cheated on almost drove him mad.
He cared about Julianna very much, making him lose all reason.
Besides, Lisette was the one who suggested that so-called loyalty test.
She had always stayed by his side like a gentle younger sibling. Gabriel thought she only wanted to test Ryan’s character.
As for what happened with Lisette at home yesterday, he’d done it on impulse after getting riled up.
He was afraid something had really happened between Julianna and Ryan under the drug’s effect. In a fit of anger, he only wanted revenge. He wanted Julianna to get jealous and lose control.
He never meant to ruin or harm her!
In his heart, Gabriel desperately tried to justify his actions.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind.
Lisette had prepared the drug.
But at this moment, blaming Lisette no longer mattered. All he could think about was Julianna’s safety.
He looked up at the nurse, his voice trembling as he begged, “Where is she? Please, tell me where she is!”
