After the treatment, Priscilla was soon able to walk again.
This result made everyone exclaim in amazement and disbelief.
According to common sense, the degree of swelling she had just experienced would require a long period of bed rest.
From this, they realized that Gabriel was a capable doctor.
Priscilla, who could walk again, regained her resilient nature and insisted on cooking in the kitchen.
Despite Freda's repeated offers to do it and let her sister rest, Priscilla stubbornly refused and pushed Freda out, insisting that this meal was part of the medical expenses.
She had to do it herself and considered it as paying Gabriel.
Although her foot was injured, Priscilla still prepared a sumptuous meal.
It was a feast for the senses.
Gabriel couldn't help but feel deeply impressed. Whoever married Priscilla would be incredibly fortunate.
Priscilla's virtuousness was truly beyond words.
The dinner was delightful, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
In this pair of sisters, Gabriel saw something he hadn't seen in a long time.
It was the ultimate in ordinariness and happiness.
During the meal, he learned that Freda and Kyle were getting married next month, and Freda was already pregnant with twins.
The taste of happiness warmed his heart once again.
"Freda, give me those two dollars!" Gabriel suddenly said, reaching out his right hand.
Priscilla was a bit puzzled. Gabriel was being so stingy.
But Freda didn't think much of it and immediately handed the two dollars to Gabriel.
She felt that it was Gabriel's money, to begin with.
Returning it was only natural.
But obviously, Gabriel wasn't after the two dollars.
He spread the banknote on the table, carefully folding it into a very beautiful crane.
Then he handed it to Freda and said with a smile, "I don't have anything else on me, but I felt that I should give you something to express my blessings to you.
"The money is a witness to your kindness. I folded it into a crane to wish you and Kyle a lifetime of happiness and to wish your baby a healthy birth.
"By the way, when you hold your wedding, be sure to send me an invitation. I want to come and celebrate!"
Freda was moved and nodded repeatedly.
Carefully, she tucked the crane into her clothes.
Beside them, the quiet Kyle scratched his head and said with a simple smile, "Thank you, Gabriel."
"I should be thanking you guys!"
Gabriel patted Kyle on the shoulder, smiling contentedly.
In fact, he should thank Freda and Kyle.
During this time, the killings and struggles had immersed him in a cold indifference to life, making him forget what life was truly about.
It was Freda and Kyle's simplicity and purity that awakened his heart.
After dinner, they chatted for a while.
Since it was late and the house was small, Freda and Kyle left.
In the room, only Gabriel and Priscilla remained.
Gabriel narrowed his eyes as he stood by the window, smoking.
He gazed at the night, his expression serious.
The night sky seemed even darker, as if someone had spilled ink across it.
There was a sense of oppression.
Priscilla made a cup of coffee and said to him, "Gabriel, smoke less and come have some coffee."
Gabriel turned around and smiled.
He obediently extinguished the half-smoked cigarette and put the rest back in the box.
It wasn't finished, so it shouldn't be wasted.
He walked over and sat down, picking up a cup of coffee.
After taking a sip, he remarked that it tasted very good.
But as he set the cup down, his tone became very serious as he said to Priscilla, "Miss Weber, there are some things I must explain to you, and I hope you can understand."
"What is it?" Priscilla looked extremely puzzled at Gabriel's solemn expression.
"It's not always fair in this world. Even if we keep to ourselves, we may still suffer from the bullying of bad people and evildoers," Gabriel said.
"Your past sense of justice often seems powerless.
"After experiencing today's events, I'm sure you've also felt what the term 'power' means to ordinary people."
Priscilla fell silent.
Once, she believed that the law and her sense of justice were the sharpest weapons in the world, capable of removing all evil and injustice.
However, as Gabriel had pointed out, after today, she was shaken.
She couldn't fight against Kevin or Doyle. In the face of these dark forces, she seemed insignificant.
Even with the weapon of the law, she couldn't wield it herself.
Avenging her brother would be very difficult.
But even so, she was determined to avenge her brother.
Gabriel continued, "I'm not saying all this to make you give up avenging your brother, because the person who killed your brother deserves to die!
"It's just that right now you don't have the ability. If you're not careful, you might end up hurting yourself.
"These beasts, once they become ruthless, lose their humanity."
The coming struggle would be even more dangerous.
And he couldn't protect Priscilla all the time.
If Kevin and Doyle retaliated, Priscilla would not be able to handle it.
So, some preventive measures must be taken.
"What should I do?" Priscilla looked at Gabriel with a helpless expression.
After today's events, she didn't know what to do.
Gabriel was relieved. Taking his advice was a good sign.
He said to Priscilla, "For now, don't worry about your brother's matter. Take a vacation and rest. Don't go to work either. In short, from now on, don't provoke Kevin and Doyle. If possible, going on a trip would be good.
"Wait and be patient. I'm about to confront some major forces in Gumoldur City. Once the confrontation is over, we'll have great power in Gumoldur City.
"At that time, I'll help you wield the sword of justice and avenge your brother."
He said these words to Priscilla because today he saw the ordinary but moving spirit of the two sisters.
Sometimes, the evil of bad people could not be measured by any moral standards.
He didn't want either of them to suffer any more harm.
Priscilla was filled with emotion and nodded.
Her big eyes were filled with a layer of mist.
She chose to believe in Gabriel.
Besides her powerlessness, she also had hope for the future.
She hoped that the light of justice would shine in her heart once again.
Gabriel's phone suddenly rang.
He took out his phone and saw that it was Matilda calling.
"Hello?" He answered the phone, jokingly saying, "Miss Wallick, are you afraid I won't be able to find your house, or do you miss me?" NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
From the other end of the phone came Matilda's gentle voice. "It's already half past ten. I was worried that something might happen to you, so I called to ask."
"I've already received the address. I'll come over in a while!" After saying this, Gabriel hung up the phone.
He stretched himself and said to Priscilla, "A beautiful lady has invited me to stay at her place. I should go!
"What about your foot? Although it's not a big deal, you still need to be careful when walking. If you sprain it again, it will be more troublesome.
"Alright, rest early."
After saying these words, Gabriel left Priscilla's house.
As soon as Gabriel left, Priscilla felt empty inside.
She muttered angrily, "A beautiful lady inviting you to stay at her place? What a fickle person!"
