Chapter 167 167: Everything changed

"You must accept responsibility for Eveline, and that is final," Richard said, leaving no space for Gabriel to protest.

Gabriel clenched his fist and said, "I will. She will not endure any humiliations, and that is a promise."

Eveline shook her head and gazed at Gabriel through weeping eyes, but before she could reach him, he walked away, leaving her alone.

Following the graduation party, Eveline awoke in her hotel room with none other than Gabriel at her side.

She knew they had been drugged, but Gabriel refused to believe her and blamed her for the whole thing. She tried to explain, but he showed her images of her chatting with one of the waiters about spiked drinks and bringing him to the hotel.

Gabriel knew something was wrong and wanted to tell her about it, but he never imagined the girl he was so eager to meet would be the one to bring him to that state, simply to take advantage of him.

He was about to propose to her, but his dream shattered when he realized that she turned out to be just like other girls, appreciating him for his body, but not loving him.

His life was never the same after that day, when uncle Jonathan discovered the incident and ordered him to accept responsibility for the problems he had caused his daughter.

He was so devastated by everything that he began to believe whatever Tiffany said. The warning she gave him proved to be true, and he realized what a fool he was to believe Eveline actually liked him.

Eveline attempted to manipulate the situation by lying to him, but how could he refuse pictures that were true?

He realized that all she did was make him acknowledge her, which he had refused to do all along. She was smart, not naive, as she depicted. Regardless of what he saw or thought of her, the sight of her tears made his eyes melt.
