NovelEnglishChapter 833 Gabriel's voice was quiet, and his expression calm, but Wilhelm couldn't help feeling a bit afraid.
"I... I didn't forget..." he mumbled, lowering his head to avoid Gabriel's gaze.
"Since you didn't forget, then telldid you apologize to Mason when you got to school today?" Gabriel asked.

"Wil, it's only when you recognize and correct your mistakes, and show the courage to apologize, that other kids will enjoy being around you.
"Remember, you lied and said Mason pushed you when you actually fell on your own, which made the other kids afraid to play with you," Gabriel explained.
Wilhelm's eyes filled with confusion and bewilderment.
"Is that really why?" he asked.
What his father was saying didn't match what his mother had told him. She had said that, since their family donated a lot of money to the school, he could do whatever he wanted without worrying about the other kids. Who was he supposed to believe? Gabriel nodded and replied, "Yes. Or are you too shy to apologize? Wantto go with you?" Wilhelm wanted to say he didn't want to apologize to Mason, but he nodded reluctantly under his father's gaze. "Okay." "Alright. Let's ask your teacher to call Mason over, and you can apologize in front of me," Gabriel said. "Alright," Wilhelm replied.
Laura had spent half the morning trying to reason with Wilhelm to no effect, yet here was Gabriel, resolving the issue with a few simple words.
Relieved, she quickly said, "I'll bring Mason right over." Soon, Mason entered the office with Laura.
When Gabriel saw Mason, his hands clenched instinctively, his eyes narrowing at the boy's face. Mason's resemblance to Damon was striking, and a shadow crossed Gabriel's gaze.

Wilhelm's irritation flared at Mason's indifference, and he demanded, "Hey, I apologized already! What more do you want?" "Just because you apologized doesn't mean I have to accept it," Mason replied, his expression cold and serious- like a miniature version of Damon.
Gabriel's gaze hardened slightly. He knelt, smiling at Mason. "Mason, Wilhelm shouldn't have acted the way he did, and I've already spoken to him about it. Can you forgive him?" en
Mason glanced at Gabriel, his expression still impassive. He didn't care much for this smiling, smooth-talking man, so he stayed silent. Gabriel was momentarily startled by Mason's eyes which resembled Nyla's and softened his expression.
Unsettled by Gabriel's odd gaze, Mason frowned and turned to Laura. "Ms. Ferrier, I'd like to go back to class now."
Sensing that Mason was unwilling to forgive Withelm, Laura wanted to encourage him to be more forgiving, but then she remembered the principal's note about Damon's position and status.
Finally, she looked at Gabriel and asked, "Mr. Hackett, would you be open to arranging a tto discuss this with Ms. Kinsey or Mr. Sumner in private?" Gabriel's eyes brightened, and he nodded to Laura. "Sure, thank you for handling this."
