Chapter 149 149: She needed to reach out to him

The next day, Eveline awoke to find the spot next to her cold and empty, signaling that Gabriel had indeed left.

She sighed and pushed herself to sit up, her gaze naturally drawn to the window.

"So he actually followed my words for once," she said, looking aside before stretching her arm and getting out of bed.

Eveline slept soundly, but her discussion with Gabriel the night before haunted her.

She might have tried to avoid saying anything to him, but she knew Gabriel wouldn't let her stay quiet long.

Standing under the shower, she let the warm water flow down her body.

Eveline's mind had been preoccupied with a variety of things, but the one she most wanted to deal with was Tiffany.

Now that Alex had been arrested, Tiffany had to face the repercussions of her strategy.

Eveline quickly took a bath and prepared to depart for college.

"Where is dad, aunt Susan?" Eveline inquired, looking at the vacant chair on the breakfast table.

Usually, her father would wake up early, go for a morning stroll, and then spend some time in the yard reading the newspaper.

He would spend his leisure time waiting for his daughter to arrive and join him for breakfast before heading out to work. But today, he was not present.

"Master left for work early, young Miss. What would you want for breakfast? We have a variety of tasty options," Susan replied after informing Eveline of Jonathan's whereabouts.

Eveline furrowed her brow, reflecting on Susan's comments before asking for a basic English breakfast.

Eveline quickly finished her breakfast and stepped out of the house, only to discover Gabriel's car waiting for her below the shades.

She hurriedly entered and noticed Gabriel staring at her with a thrilled expression on his face.

Eveline lingered for a while, taking in his soft eyes, before turning and closing the door.

Gabriel began the automobile ride by slowly moving her closer to him and kissing her on the cheek.

"Did you miss waking up next to me?" he inquired, reminding Eveline of her solo morning.
