Chapter 298
Meanwhile, at the Moonlight Pavilion..
After the dishes were served, Gabriel attentively cut the food into smaller pieces for Violet, making it seem like she was usually being mistreated by someone else.
When Gabriel saw Violet was eating wholeheartedly, he could not help but smile and stare at her.
Then, Violet looked up and saw Gabriel’s slightly bewitching and sinister smile under the light in the private room. Coupled with the amethyst on his ear, it made him feel
even more attractive.
She raised an eyebrow while eating. “Why are you staring at me like that?”
Gabriel smirked and said, “Vivi, do you think I’m handsome?”
Though Gabriel’s smile seemed casual, he felt a bit nervous inside.
Before, he had only fallen halfway.
But ever since Violet saved him, he had completely fallen for her.
Although he usually did not care about anything, he was very serious and cared about this relationship.
Violet felt a bit uncomfortable being stared at by Gabriel like this. She couldn’t help but glare at him. “Don’t try to show off your charm like a peacock spreading its tail. It’s distasteful!”
Gabriel seemed a bit aggrieved. “Vivi, you scolded me!”
Violet looked at him coldly. “How did I scold you?”
“You called me an animal!” Gabriel looked at her with a somewhat profound gaze.
Violet rolled her eyes dismissively. She said, “Well, humans are technically animals.”
Upon hearing this, Gabriel burst into laughter. “Vivi, don’t glare at me. The more you. do, the more I like you!”
Violet nearly choked on the food she was eating.
She managed to swallow it down with difficulty and looked at Gabriel. She was utterly exasperated. “Gabriel, what the hell did you say!”
Gabriel laughed playfully. “I’m being honest. You look even more beautiful when you.

glare at people!”
Violet didn’t know how to express her current feelings. She sighed and said, “Something must be wrong with your brain!”
Gabriel looked steadily at Violet. “My brain is fine. I’m just speaking the truth.”
Violet gave him a glance but didn’t say anything.
Gabriel was not annoyed. He said with a smile, “Vivi, do you know what the most satisfying thing in the world is?”
Violet looked at him, her eyes flashing. She asked, “What?”
“Of course, it’s when your love rival ends up together with someone else other than your crush!” Gabriel smirked.
Violet was utterly confused. “I don’t understand what you’re getting at.”
Suddenly, Gabriel picked up his phone from the table and handed it to Violet. “Take a look!”
Violet’s eyes froze on the photo.
The photo was posted on Instagram by Riley. In the picture, Riley was beaming with happiness, while Patrick looked cold and collected, creating an unusually harmonious
scene.
Riley had simply captioned it with, “Happy!”
Violet’s hand instinctively clenched into a fist. She suddenly felt like breathing was becoming difficult, and it was getting hard to catch her breath.
It felt like someone had suddenly grabbed her heart with their hand, suffocating her.
She subconsciously bit her lip, and even the color seemed to drain from her lips.
Seeing Violet’s intense reaction, Gabriel felt a twinge of discomfort.
How much did she really like Patrick to be this upset?
But even so, he couldn’t allow Patrick a chance.
Putting aside his feelings for Violet, he was initially suspicious of Patrick’s character.
Gabriel looked directly at Violet and put away his phone. He continued with what he had said earlier. “Vivi, I know Patrick likes you. So, he’s my love rival for your affection!”
Violet closed her eyes. In her mind, all she could see were pictures of Riley and Patrick.

She felt that she was not calm at all. She made a lot of assumptions in her mind just because of a mere photo, which was so unlike her.
She should believe that Patrick wouldn’t have anything with Riley. He explained it before.
However, when she thought of Patrick’s attitude today, she was a little uncertain.
Violet shook her head, feeling lost and a bit sad. “You’re mistaken. He doesn’t like me.”
If Patrick truly had feelings for her, he would not have initially advised her not to harbor
any unrealistic hopes, nor would he have outright denied it when she asked if he
liked her.
Gabriel took a deep breath and gripped his hands tightly. He was somewhat nervous.
He stared at Violet intently. After a moment, he asked, “Alright, let’s not worry about. what he thinks. I just want to tell you that I like you, Vivi. Do you believe me?”
Violet was stunned. Then, her emotions started to get out of control. “Gabriel, don’t make such jokes just because you don’t get along with Patrick!”
Gabriel frowned deeply. His expression was unprecedentedly serious. “Violet, this isn’t a joke! What are you avoiding? Am I not as good as Patrick?”
