Chapter 5 5: A romantic novel

"Don't you remember?" Eveline mocked, her eyes going gloomy.

Gabriel remained motionless, his mind struggling to understand what she had said. Although it was obvious to him, the way she looked at him just now made his stomach turn.

He was concerned that she may tumble earlier. But his generosity was misconstrued.

"Can you just tell me what I did wrong?" Gabriel crossed his hands. "Was warning you a wrong intention?"

He fixed his eyes on her, waiting anxiously for an answer.

Eveline couldn't believe Gabriel would be interested in her response, especially since he never intended to wait. He always thought she was a foolish girl and blamed her for everything that happened.

All of his deeds throughout her prior existence demonstrated how ruthless he was.

Eveline's blood curdled with wrath as the feeling of betrayal rushed over her, regretting her love for him to the point of losing her self-esteem. However, she was unable to express her feelings or allow him to mock her.

Eveline took a deep breath, disregarded all thoughts, and returned his stare with the same steely eyes.

"Listen, Gabriel. I realize that you initially did not want to come and tutor me. I compelled you to come here after asking Uncle Richard about it. But now, I've realized my mistake, and I no longer want to learn anything from you," Eveline stated simply, leaving Gabriel suspicious.

He had never adapted to Eveline's coldness, but today he felt like someone she detested.

'Is she serious right now?' he wondered.

Eveline, on the other hand, saw a shift in his gaze.

Was it the contemplation she saw in those eyes, or was he finding a way to laugh at her?She was unable to express her feelings, yet she could not imagine sharing the same space with him.

"So, there's no need for you to come here," she said, leaving Gabriel stunned.

Eveline's words struck like a knife, piercing his heart with a cruel blow. "I have already lost my face due to my years-long crush on you, but I no longer want to associate with you in any way."

Gabriel clenched his jaw in wrath at the sound of her angry remarks and walked away solemnly.

Scoff

"Does he think his anger still bothers me?" Eveline muttered, ignoring his exit, and turned to return to her room.

Jonathan remained seated downstairs but rose up when he saw Gabriel walk back down. He intended to ask Gabriel where he was going, but he stopped when Gabriel walked away without looking back.
