The Billion Dollar Contract novel Chapter 22

Gabriel went downstairs and saw his parents seated in the living room

"Hi Mom. Hi Dad" he greeted as he walked into the room

"Hi son" his dad replied

"Oh honey, how are you? My God! Gabriel you've lost weight" his mom exclaimed

"Mom. I'm fine" Gabriel replied giving his mom a hug

"Why didn't you tell me about Nicole? I felt hurt finding out from Charles" his mom scolded

Wow! She already remembers her name. That was fast, Gabriel thought to himself

"I planned on bringing her over but I was too busy, I couldn't make out time for that. I'm sorry" Gabriel lied

"You're always busy, don't you get tired?" His mom replied

"So where is she?" She asked looking around for her son's fiancee

"She's out in the garden, she should be here soon" he replied

They were sat in the living room discussing about different things when Nicole walked in

"Oh my God! Is that her?" Mrs Harrison asked as she excitedly stood up from her place and walked towards Nicole

"She is beautiful and quite young" his mom continued with a bright smile, admiring the female before her

"How did you do it Gabe?" She asked now looking at her son, waiting for his reply

"Nevermind" she immediately dismissed the question turning back to Nicole

"It's nice to meet you ma'am" Nicole shyly greeted

"Aww, don't be shy with me and I don't want you addressing me in that manner. I'm Helen to you, okay?"

"Okay" Nicole replied with a smile. Helen guided Nicole to the couch she was sitting on with her husband

"Isn't she beautiful?" Helen asked her husband making Nicole to smile shyly

"She is really beautiful, congratulations son" Gabriel's dad said

Helen was really excited to see that her son had finally found someone in his life. She has been waiting for this day to come, she didn't think that he was ever going to get over his breakup with Ashley

"So. How did you two meet?" She excitedly asked Nicole

"Mom you're already throwing questions at her, I don't think that's necessary" Gabriel said trying to prevent his mom from asking any questions

"What? I think I have the right to know those informations, don't you think?" She questioned

"No it's fine. We met at a bar" Nicole began
