Fool's Gold 09

Olivia's father lay gravely ill. His last act of defiance was to remove his oxygen mask, leaving the heart monitor to show a flat line. Just three months earlier, Olivia had disapproved of Gabriel's relationship with their housekeeper, Isabella. In response, Gabriel had presented a document cutting all ties with his daughter. Isabella's manipulations only worsened their relationship as Gabriel spent all his savings on her. Head over heels in love, Gabriel believed in their genuine affection, unaware that Isabella was solely after his money. She gained his trust and convinced him to invest in dubious online ventures. As Gabriel sank deeper, he pressured friends and family to invest more money. Olivia quickly recognised the fraudulent scheme, but by then, it was too late to stop it.
