Chapter 79 79: Gabriel is mine!!

The brief joy he felt was gone in an instant, and now Gabriel could only bide his time until she responded.

Eveline wanted to distract him, so she just allowed herself to listen to him. Now that she had blurted out those words, though, all he could do was keep asking her to explain why she was there.

Eveline swallowed at Gabriel's gloomy gaze and forced an uncomfortable smile.

"Hehe, when did I say that?" Eveline mentioned glancing away from his eyes.

She could not bring herself to look foolish in front of Gabriel, even though she knew she was busted.

"Eve, you heard it correctly. Now stop acting and tell me who you were waiting for." Now that she had actually irritated him with her pretense, Gabriel was truly serious again.

The Eveline he knew had always been so understanding of him, but this one would trick him without thinking about how other people would feel when they realized it was all a show.

When Gabriel persisted, Eveline sighed.

Gabriel's eyebrows knitted as she uttered, "I was waiting for Aunt Susan."

Eveline had a few things she wanted to keep private, but she was powerless to resist Gabriel's constant pestering and overbearing behavior.

"But wasn't she in her hometown? Why are you standing outside the convenience store waiting for her?" Gabriel asked after overhearing Eveline's conversation with Bella regarding the whole Susan thing.

Eveline had planned to visit Susan because she missed her, but she later canceled the plan after learning that Susan was in her hometown.

"Yeah, she was supposed to be there, but I happened to see her here, which caught me eager to know why she lied about being in her hometown," Eveline said, giving him a questioning glance before brushing it off.

Gabriel's scowl deepened as he considered when to tell Eveline that Tiffany was Susan's daughter.

Stefan stated it was necessary for her to know the truth but knowing how much Eveline was destressed with just one lie from Susan, he wondered how she would feel when she will know the truth.

"Do you know where she lives?" Gabriel asked and she shook her denying his words.
