Vanessa: GABRIEL, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
Gabriel didn't answer immediately. He slowly pulled the heavy gold band off his skin, holding it between his thumb and forefinger over the polished wood of the dining table.
Gabriel: SEEING YOU CLEARLY.
Vanessa: YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS!
Vanessa gasped in sheer horror, her manicured hands clutching the edge of her ivory gown as the weight of his words hit her.
Gabriel: THIS IS NOT THE WOMAN I'M MARRYING.
He dropped the ring onto the center of the table. A sharp metal clink echoed through the dining room as the diamond ring rested alone on the shiny surface.
Vanessa: Gabriel! You are throwing away our wedding over a servant?! She's just a maid!
Gabriel: She is a human being who works in my house, Vanessa! You burned her skin on purpose!
Vanessa: I lost my temper! You know how stressed I am with the wedding planning and the estate foundation!
Gabriel: Stress doesn't turn a person into a sadist. You showed me exactly who you are today.
In the background, the maid winced against the wall, holding her arm as cold sweat beaded on her forehead.
Gabriel: Ellen, go to the kitchen right now and put cold water on that burn. I am calling my personal physician to meet you downstairs.
Maid: Thank you, Mr. Gabriel... I'm so sorry for making a scene...
Gabriel: You didn't make a scene, Ellen. You were assaulted in my home.
Vanessa: Assaulted?! Are you out of your mind?! I am your fiancée! My father controls half the shares in your real estate firm!
Gabriel: I don't care about your father's shares, and I don't care about your family's money!
Vanessa: You can't just break off an engagement two weeks before five hundred guests arrive in Dallas!
Gabriel: Watch me.
Vanessa stood up, her face red with humiliation as she grabbed a crystal glass from the table and threw it against the white wall, smashing it to pieces near the framed flag decor.
Vanessa: You think you can humiliate me like this?! I gave you two years of my life!
Gabriel: And you just spent those two years pretending to be someone you aren't!
Enraged by her complete lack of remorse and continuous destruction, Gabriel's jaw tightened. He took two fast, explosive steps forward, leaped high into the air with immense power, and delivered a dynamic, high-impact flying kick directly into the chest of the woman in the ivory gown. The violent blow launched Vanessa backward, sending her crashing onto the hard floor with a heavy thud.
Vanessa: AHHHH! MY CHEST!
Gabriel landed firmly on his feet, standing tall over her as she writhed on the ground, clutching her bruised ribs in utter shock.
Gabriel: TEXAS POLICE ARE ON THEIR WAY! CALL 911 RIGHT NOW! 🇺🇸
