Chasing the Unexpected (Nyla)

Chapter 333

Nyla pressed her lips together and called him. “I’m still out. There’s no need to bring me anything next time.”

After a few seconds of silence on the other end, Gabriel’s gentle voice came through. “Alright. It’s already past 10:00 p.m. Do you need me to pick you up?”

Because of what Wren had said, Nyla wasn’t eager to have too much contact with Gabriel. She declined, “No, my friend is giving me a ride. If there’s nothing else, that’s it.”

She hung up, and Valarie looked at her with curiosity. “Who were you talking to?”

“My stepbrother,” Nyla answered.

Valarie’s eyes widened in surprise. “He’s back? When did that happen?”

Since Valarie used to visit Nyla’s home often, she had met Gabriel several times.

“Just a few days ago,” Nyla replied.

“Oh, he seems to be quite concerned about you now. I remember when I used to visit you. He was pretty aloof,” Valarie remarked.

“Yeah. By the way… I said I’d cover the bill tonight, but you ended up doing it. Send me the bill, and I’ll reimburse you,” Nyla said.

Valarie glared at her. “Keeping tabs like that? Just cover it next time. By the way, how did you end up at the hospital with Damon tonight? Were you injured?”
