Chapter 237 237: Shot in her chest

Stefan waited for a call from Gabriel after sending him the information about the doctor Bernard. As he carried out more research, the data he discovered contradicted him.

He wondered how many things were kept from them and why that was the case.

As he continued to look at the phone in front of him, his mind raced, hoping for a positive outcome from this meeting.

"Breakfast is ready," Ella's cheerful voice snapped him out of his trance, and he noticed her standing by the door.

When she noticed the tense expression, she walked inside, her smile faded into worry.

"Stefan, is everything all right? You have been quiet ever since you arrived. Is something bothering you?" she asked taking the seat next to him on the couch.

Stefan had no reason to hide anything from Ella because he trusted her enough with everything in his life. So when she questioned him about his concerns, he did not hold back.

Stefan turned slightly, clasped their hands together, and looked into her eyes anxiously.

"It is about Eveline," he said, making Ella frown.

"What happened with Eveline? Is everything all right with her? Why did not you inform me earlier? She was fine until yesterday." Ella bombarded Stefan with questions, unable to focus on anything. Her worries had taken over her thoughts.

Stefan could not help but smile as he saw how genuine Ella appeared to him; however, his reaction caused her to furrow.

"Why are you smiling, Stefan? This is not funny," she said as he cupped her face.

"I like it when you worry about the people close to me," Ella said quietly as he let go of her face.

Stefan paused for a moment before continuing to reveal the events that led to the end of their trip. He explained everything, including why he appeared so anxious.
