Rebirth of Billionaire's Wife (Eveline)

Chapter 81 81: I want to kiss you

The lecture was yet to begin, but Eveline's thoughts were occupied with reliving the moment she had spent with Gabriel the previous evening. She still could not get rid of the sensation of Gabriel's lips on her and the intense heat her body experienced at that mere moment.

Eveline told herself to forget it but no matter what she said, her memories wouldn't erase the image of Gabriel's pleading eyes begging her to stay.

Gabriel was showing her his feelings, which was unusual, but she could not help but notice that everything sounded genuine and authentic.

"Should I wait for Dad to get back?" Eveline was having second thoughts concerning Gabriel's request. However, she was unable to allow herself to become weak since he was once again making her heart lean toward him.

She knew the consequences of being vulnerable and would never want to go with the same fate where she would be left alone with nothing to hold onto.

"Do you mind if I join you?" Eveline was startled out of her reverie by a voice, and she looked up to see Alex grinning amiably.

Eveline regained her composure quickly, smiling again, and moved to give him room beside her.

She recalled what Gabriel told her about him and Tiffany working together against her.

Eveline had this burning anger inside of her, but she had to keep it a secret from them for the time being.

Though, at the time, she was too innocent and blind to see through their lies, Eveline never realized that she was surrounded by people who had been lying to her for their own personal gain. Now, however, she would make sure to fight them back if they happened to think of ruining her life.

Tiffany was, of course, at the top of her list, followed by Alex; she just needed to pick one step at a time to get back on track.

With a smile, Alex took a seat and began to take the books off of his back. But in the process, a tiny bottle unintentionally fell to the ground, seizing Eveline's attention.

She stooped to pick up the bottle, read the name on it, and then scowled.

Eveline quickly realized what that meant, but she chose to pretend not to know.

"Alex, do you take medication?" she inquired, restraining herself.

As soon as she said those words, Alex stopped abruptly, his eyes darting toward her before settling on the bottle she was holding.

Observing the blood drain from Alex's face, Eveline smiled in her head.

Alex fumbled with his expression as he looked back and forth from the bottle to Eveline before snatching the bottle from her.
