Chapter 40 40: Hitting on you

Eveline quickly took a shower and got ready. She had a few from the snack and juice Susan brought for her when a maid came and announced Gabriel's arrival.

"Tell him to wait in the study room for me," she said, and the maid departed.

Eveline thought that Gabriel dictated how her life should go. She was supposed to go to bed, but the idea of him coming to her house kept her awake. And not to forget about Aunt Belle's words.

"I will scold him for talking nonsense before Aunt Belle. What would she think of me?" Eveline muttered and quickly gathered her notes in her hand before marching out of the room.

Gabriel, in the meantime, had been waiting patiently for Eveline, and when the study room door opened and she came inside, his eyes lit up with joy.

She gave off a cuddly appearance in her pink pajamas and Hello Kitty top and he couldn't help but admire how innocent she appeared with those attires.

Eveline, though, was not pleased to see Gabriel. She was tempted to strike him in the face by the way he was staring at her.

Gabriel had been giving her this lost puppy look for a few days and now it had started getting on her nerves.

"I wish I could just take those eyes right out of your socket. I am feeling spooky vibes from you more than from Alex." Eveline snapped as she made her way towards him and slammed the books on the table.
