Rebirth of Billionaire's Wife (Eveline)

Chapter 61 61: That was close

"Where are you lost, princess? Don't you like the food?" Richard noticed Eveline's preoccupied self and inquired.

Richard arrived early at the house because he was unable to meet Eveline yesterday or in the morning today. They had a great conversation during which she told him about how excited she was for sports day and how exhausting practice was for her.

Richard knew that Eveline was a competitive individual who enjoyed pushing herself to the utmost in both athletics and academia.

"Yes, Eveline, tell me why you are not eating. Do you want me to ask the cook to prepare something else for you?" Belle asked.

Eveline shook her head, staring at the two of them, completely speechless.

"No, Aunty, that is okay," she said to Belle before turning to face Richard and remarking,

"Uncle, I already like this food." She dismissed both of their worries with a smile and began to eat the food.

Gabriel continued to eat the meal as he watched everything from the sidelines before they were done with the dinner and departed to their respective rooms.

Eveline closed the door and walked towards the bed. After settling into the bed with her back resting on the backrest, she opened her phone and began searching for the video that she had recorded of those girls.

There was something with the man inside the video that bugged her.

"Where have I seen this man?" she murmured to herself as she thought about the man who seemed familiar to her.

"The girls said he was looking for Tiffany and they assumed him to be her father. Is that the reason why she never allowed me to come to her place, because she was humiliated by the life she served?" Eveline couldn't help but connect the dots, as this discovery was a key point in Tiffany's behavior.

Biting her nails Eveline was racking her brain to recall where she saw this man when a knock on the door put an abrupt stop in her thoughts.

She got off the bed and went to open the door, wondering who could have arrived at this hour.

"Daniel, what are you doing here at this time?" Eveline was taken aback to see Daniel waiting outside her room. A slight pout flaunted his dejected expression.
