Chapter 229 229: Let me take you there

"Why are you sitting there with your hair still damp?"

Eveline's body stiffened when she heard Gabriel enter the room.

Her eyes grew wide as she turned to face him.

Fortunately, Gabriel moved to close the door, and she quickly placed the phone on the bed and hid the note under the mattress before returning to her position.

"Do you want to get sick?" he questioned, making his way to the bed.

He remembered that when he left, Eveline was still in the shower, and now that he has returned after a lengthy absence, she is still sitting there without drying her hair.

Eveline was too caught up in his unexpected appearance, but why wouldn't he come? He needed to come; after all, it was his room too.

'Stupid Eveline,' she chided herself inwardly while forcing a grin.

"I waited for you. Would you like to help me dry my hair?" she asked, leading Gabriel to smile.

"Of course. You can make me do anything for you, Eve. Come on, go over to the dressing table, and sit there."

Eveline did as he asked and sat on the stool facing the mirror.

Gabriel grabbed the dryer and inserted the plug into the socket to turn it on.

Eveline's thoughts raced as she watched Gabriel gently dry her hair, section by section.

She didn't want to hide anything from him, given how frequently he had told her about his concerns.

But this would be the last time she would hide anything from him.

Eveline couldn't take the risk because she had been asked to come alone, but the question was how.

Gabriel had already stationed guards around them after she told them about the man she said was following them, and she was convinced Gabriel was already on his way to find the person.

She felt like striking her head on a stone, but she had to be honest because Gabriel was the one to correct her conduct.

"Did you find anything suspicious around us?" Eveline asked.

Gabriel shook his head as he gazed at her in the mirror.
