Lazily Yours.

Chapter 545: Charities

"That man who is he?" Alfons was leaning against the door, glaring at Gabi as she walked inside the mansion. She just finished her morning exercises and was about to take a shower to start her day. "Gabi, you know that you are not just any woman. You are a Sutton and the heiress of the Ren Family. You can't just get close to anyone that you like."

However, Gabi didn't respond. Instead, she walked past him.

"Hey, are you listening to me?"

"Why are you still here?"

"I decided to move back here."

"Oh?" Gabi didn't stop walking, so Alfons followed her.

"That man he doesn't look like someone from the prestigious family in our country. Who is he?"

"None of your business."

"Gabi, can you stop your tantrum and talk to me like an adult woman?"

"Tantrum?" Gabi smiled as she stopped walking. "You think I am still throwing a tantrum?"

"Yes. I know this is just a phase. I know you are angry but "

"You are no longer welcome in this house."

"Gabi How could you say that?"

"You are too nosy, brother." She didn't hide the sarcasm in her voice.

"Can you at least listen to me? I promised father that I will take care of you! How could you act like this just a few months after father died? Do you think he would be happy to know that you are not listening to me anymore?"

Gabi's lips started twitching. How shameless. "What do you want to talk about?"

"I don't know Gabi. I am exhausted. All this fighting and arguments with you are making me exhausted. Can we just stop all this?"

Gabi didn't show an iota of emotion on her face. She just blankly stared at him. Seeing this, he continued, "I didn't know that you would act like this. I am still your brother and we are families. I think we should just forget about the past and start over."

Again, Gabi just stared at him, saying nothing.

"You are not going to say anything?" Alfons asked.

"I am giving you the chance to say everything that you want."

"Well, this fight is affecting the people around us. Even the servants are having a hard time coping with the tense atmosphere."

"Then they should just leave," Gabi said. "I am paying them to work, not to think about the atmosphere."

"Gabi! How could you say that? These people have worked here for years!"

She snorted. "And?"

"They are family."

"What a good logic. Why don't you start paying them their salaries? After all, they are your family?"

Alfons' eyes widened. She couldn't imagine the amount of anger that he was feeling right now. However, Gabi was silently applauding this man. After all, he wasn't showing any anger on his face. In fact, Alfons looked pitiful in front of her right now. Just this amount of acting talent left her in awe.

"Aren't you exhausted?"

"Nope."

"If you really hate me that much, them can you at least think about the other parties affected by this issue?"

"Other parties?"

"Since we started fighting, you also stopped donating to charities that I am working with. I know you are punishing me but what about those people? They did nothing against you. Why would you involve them?"

Gabi couldn't help but chuckle. Everything about this man's actions would involve something that would benefit him. How did he miss this kind of stuff before?

"Charities? I don't remember donating to the charities under my name, brother. Perhaps you forgot whose name was used to donate using my money?"

"You " This time, Alfons' face turned ugly. In fact, she gives monthly donations to charities through Alfons. Obviously, the donations became under his name too. He was known as the benefactor of over ten charities. And none of these people knew that the money came from Gabi.

In the past, she never minded these things. To her, the important was the thought. She wanted to help, so she gave money. She didn't care if it was Alfons name. Moreover, he was her brother, so it was alright. It does not affect her at all.

However, since they started fighting, Gabi stopped sending money through Alfons. He asked Lawyer Oh to manage the donations and put it under her name instead.

"You look angry, brother. Did I say something wrong?"

"How did you become this petty?" Alfons asked. "You did this just because of the name? You actually stopped helping people because they thought it was my own money? Gabi, how could you lower yourself like that?"

"Actually, I never stopped helping them."

Realization flashed in his eyes. "So, you donated under your name," he nodded. "And you did it to spite me."

"You are thinking too much, brother. I donated because I wanted to give. I didn't have any other hidden agenda."

Alfons stared at him, speechless. He clenched his teeth before saying, "I am leaving. I will be moving back tonight."

Gabi didn't say anything as he took a step towards the door.

'It seems that Gabi finally grew some spine,' he thought inwardly. Once he went out of the mansion, he opened his phone and dial a number.

"Hey, change of plans. I can't change her mind. She doesn't trust me anymore. Let's use another approach." In the past, showing Gabi his vulnerable side always works. He would cry or get drunk and immediately get her attention. However, this time, it didn't happen. Aside from that, Gabi didn't get involved in that incident where he was kneeling outside of the company for days. Usually, seeing him like that was Gabi's weakness. Again, it didn't work this time. So, he concluded that he needed someone else to help him.

'You mean that approach?' the person on the other line asked.

"Yes. I will move back into the mansion tonight. Please prepare everything. I hope we can execute the plan, next week."

'Got it. You should be careful. You were too rash this time. Now, the trust that you built is slowly crumbling.'

"I know. I was too rash. Anyway, call me once everything is ready."

'Got it.'
