Rebirth of Billionaire's Wife (Eveline)

Gabriel had never before shown up in their classroom, and his sudden appearance startled nearly everyone. Nevertheless, it was too clear who he was waiting for.

"Gabriel, what brings you here?" Intending to start a conversation, she hurried towards him but was met with a chilly glare from Gabriel, who then proceeded to walk in the direction of Eveline.

"Are you finished with your classes?" he inquired, leaving Eveline frozen in place.

Eveline was mentally freaking out as she took in what she was seeing, but soon the chattering around broke her trance and she took a step back.

"Y-yes, I did, but why does that concern you?" The pupils were shocked to see Eveline reverting to her icy attitude towards Gabriel.

Despite being the one to publicly admit her crush on Gabriel, they believed Eveline had been overly brave and callous toward him.
