Rebirth of Billionaire's Wife (Eveline)

Chapter 83 83: She saved me once

"What did you say?" she asked, utterly surprised by his words.

"No?" he asked with a shake of his head, irritating Eveline with his snide comment.

Gabriel ignored her reaction and repeated, "Yes, you heard me right. Alex and Tiffany are a team and I am confident that whatever conspired in our lives is their doing."

His words crashed into her head, filling in every gap that Eveline searched for, leaving her speechless.

"Since I informed you earlier about Tiffany's involvement with Gracey's suspension, I discovered a surveillance where I discovered Tiffany and Alex together," he said, breaking Eveline's thought.

"Since how long have they been together?" she asked, to which Gabriel shrugged.

"Maybe for too long," he said.

Gabriel observed Eveline spacing off, revealing her perplexed expression as if she were busy thinking about something.

Breaking her stream of thought, he asked abruptly, "How did you and Tiffany become friends?" and she turned to look at him in a daze.

Since Gabriel had asked, Eveline attempted to recall the precise instance in which Tiffany won her trust. Was it her friendly encounter that made her get along with her, or was it when she saved her from those goons?

Eveline may be the most popular girl in the college, but she did not have any friends and despite the warning signs, Eveline grabbed Tiffany's hand as soon as she reached out to befriend her.
