章 268: An Unplanned Affirmation

"Why do you want me to meet your father?" Angela probed, her eyes unwavering. It shouldn't be a question as Gael had already met her father and some of the Sus. But his family was different. Imagining meeting the man was unnerving for her. According to what Nina told her back then—if Gael was ruthless, that's because he got it from his father.

"Honestly… I should have done that earlier. Is that too much for you?" he probed.

He didn't exactly answer her question, and that bugged her. "I mean, it's too sudden that you asked. Did you just think about it now? Does your father know about me?"

Angela's question made sense to him, and he couldn't be mad about it when he'd never really brought it up in the past. He squeezed her shoulder as if to give her comfort. "It came to mind yesterday…  And he's heard, I'm sure—especially since I brought you to New York with me last week. But we haven't talked about you directly."
