Chapter 112 112: Need your help

"I wonder if you have lost your brain cells somewhere, or maybe it is just your head," Eveline teased him, his sardonic humor not seeming to fit her.

Rather than trying to act cool, which did not suit his tastes, it was better for him to stay cold and distant.

"When I met you, I did lose some brain cells, but when I realized that I was in love with you, I did lose my mind. There you have it, my response."

Eveline could just give him a rolling-eye look.

She was obviously not pleased, but there was no way he would stay silent.

Eveline kept her comments to herself and turned to look outside when her phone rang.

Gabriel's expression changed from bright daylight to deep shadows as soon as he saw the caller's name.

Eveline noticed the sudden drop in his aura and quickly declined the call.

"Drop me at the bus stop near the college," she suddenly said.

Gabriel scowled as she desperately peered out the window, about to turn around when he inquired,

"And why would I do that? You came with me, so I will take you to the college," Gabriel remarked, his tone revealing his displeasure.

Despite their collaboration, Eveline continues to draw boundaries in certain situations that irritate Gabriel.

He uttered, disregarding her words, "Tell me the reason and I will drop you."

Although Gabriel's domineering personality was a liability, she knew it wouldn't be beneficial if she kept it from him.

"Fine, listen..."

In the meantime, Alex was in the neighborhood coffee shop waiting for Eveline. Even though he was supposed to skip class, he had to agree to meet Eveline when she asked to.

Alex was excited to watch their relationship develop and found it pleasing that Eveline was taking the lead.

As he waited for Eveline to arrive, he failed to see someone else making his way towards him.

His eyes brightened at the sight of someone, but the moment he realized who it was, the shine quickly faded.
