Chapter 178 178: Why are your cheeks red?

"Uh, Gabriel, we can't. Did you forget you were supposed to take me to Tiffany?" She pushed him slightly, breaking the kiss and looking at him awkwardly.

Gabriel's visage hardened at the mention of Tiffany's name, and his eyes darkened as he returned his gaze to Eveline.

He was displeased, but because he had promised Eveline that he would accompany her to the police station, he swiftly pulled back and pushed himself to sit up.

Eveline blinked her eyes and began to approach him from behind. Her hands rested on her pounding heart, wondering if she had upset him, but before she could inquire, she heard him say.

"Get ready. I'll come pick you up," he murmured, gazing over his shoulder.

Eveline knew Gabriel despised the thought of meeting Tiffany after what she had done to her, but she was determined to confront her one final time.

With enough evidence against her, Eveline felt she had little hope of being released, therefore, it was best to say her farewell one final time.

Gabriel hurriedly got dressed and turned to gaze at Eveline, who had already pulled her pants up. When their gazes connected, Gabriel came up to her and kissed her.

"I love you," he whispered, pulling back and pointing to the side table, where he had placed the ointment for her to administer to her painful portion.

"I hope it relieves you," he added, and she stared at him with admiration.

Eveline was moved by his gesture, which was becoming increasingly impressive with each passing day. In gratitude for his consideration, she moved forward and kissed him again, but this time for a bit longer.

When they ran out of breath, they parted ways, and Gabriel quickly exited her room through the window.

Eveline smiled contentedly as she entered the bathroom.

Gabriel drove to Winston Mansion and entered the home, only to find his mother working. As soon as her eyes rested on him, she paused and said,

"Gabriel, where are you coming from early morning?"

Gabriel's steps came to a standstill, and he turned to face his mother's shocked voice, which caused him to chew his lips.

Gabriel made sure he wasn't noticed all these days while sneaking into Eveline's room, allowing him to leave and return home with ease. But now that his mother has seen him, he needs to lie.
