Chapter 208 208: Brothers can't stand eye to eye

Meanwhile, Gabriel became alarmed when he realized Eveline was missing.

He instantly excused himself and walked towards Mark, questioning Eveline's whereabouts.

"Where is Eveline?" He inquired, but the anxious expression on the man's face prompted him to grab out his phone and call her.

Gabriel's brow wrinkled when she didn't respond, and his worry increased.

"Damn," swearing, Gabriel dashed out of the event hall and kept calling Eveline.

Regardless, she did not respond.

Just as he was going to call his security, he noticed a petite figure emerge below.

As if seized by an invisible force, Gabriel dashed towards Eveline and drew her into his grasp.

"Where have you gone? I told you not to evade my sight. Why weren't you answering my calls?" Gabriel's voice cracked as the notion of someone hurting her struck him terribly.

By God's goodness, she was safe and in his arms.

Eveline, on the other hand, gently pulled back and grinned.

"I went to the restroom but got lost along the way," she said slowly and carefully.

Gabriel stared at her in shock before hugging her back.

"Stay with me," he murmured, and she nodded immediately.

They soon returned to the arena and continued to meet people together.

Eveline stayed quiet throughout the event; however, she did occasionally converse and smile when presented to any business delegates.

Stefan, who was curious to meet Jedrick, observed him returning to the arena, surrounded by his guards.

Ella was in charge of the meet-up, so she swiftly approached him and introduced herself.

Jedrick stared at the young lady, who immediately reminded him of someone, but swiftly dismissed the memory and smiled back.

"You remind me of someone, Miss Ella," Jedrick stated in a kind tone.

"You, too, remind me of someone, Mrs. Donovan. Do you know Mr. Jonathan Miller?" Stefan inquired, his smile faltering.

"Who does not know him? He is one of the top industrialists of this century," Jedrick remarked, maintaining his cheerful tone and continuing to converse.
