Chapter 198 198: I won't give you an easy death.

Eveline stood under the shower and let the cold water stream down her body. She was bathing, but her thoughts were absorbed by Gabriel's revelation.

She couldn't stop thinking about the person who may have targeted her father. As far as she knew, he didn't have any enemies who would seek his death, but her assumption was proven incorrect.

Her father was attacked with the intent to kill, and the concept alone was so distressing that she couldn't help but feel wrath well up in her heart.

She quickly took a shower and headed out in a bathrobe, but her feet came to a standstill when she noticed Gabriel was already inside.

"Uncle Jonathan is awake," he added, and she swiftly recovered from her daze to nod in response.

Eveline hesitated as she approached her wardrobe, unsure if she was prepared to change before Gabriel.

She could feel his eyes on her, but he said, "I'll wait for you outside," and he stood up and departed.

Eveline sighed, wondering why she was so frightened around him after he had already seen her naked, but she quickly discarded her thoughts and changed.

As soon as she got down the stairs and out of the house, she observed Gabriel standing outside his car, waiting for her.

As soon as she reached him, he grabbed her neck and crushed her lips.

It was unexpected, yet she must have anticipated it given the way he was staring at her inside.

Gabriel was trying to resist his impulse to devour her, knowing it wasn't the ideal situation, but he couldn't stop himself from kissing her, knowing it was enough to quell his desire.
