Rebirth of Billionaire's Wife (Eveline)

Chapter 251 251: Another nightmare

"Okay, stop sulking and listen to me. I didn't intend to come out like that. It's only that I couldn't control my sneeze." Gabriel was now attempting to cajole his girl, who appeared distraught over how her father had caught them.

It wasn't his fault, but he resolved to apologise and get even with her.

Eveline gave him a sideways glance. His look appeared innocent, but she knew he was ecstatic that her father had finally allowed him to enter her chamber without having to climb the pipe again.

"Whatever, I'm still going to face him tomorrow. Jesus, it's so embarrassing to be discovered lying to your parents. What must he be thinking?" Eveline couldn't stop panicking. She had always been a little cautious about public affection, but knowing Gabriel didn't give a flying fuck, she realized she needed to get used to it soon.

Gabriel on the other hand sighed and brought her close to him.

" Look at me. It's not like we've done anything wrong. Did you hear him? We are going to marry, therefore everything is normal between the couple. Even your father understands. So please don't consider anything strange, and let's go to bed."

Gabriel was wanting to cuddle her, and when she noticed his miserable expression, she put her anxieties aside and nodded.

Gabriel carried her to bed, and they soon lay down in each other's arms. This was wonderful, being with her as if it were his universe.

"Gabriel, I have been wondering something," Eveline said abruptly, capturing his attention, and he looked down at her.

"Tell me," he asked, touching her soft hair and watching her take a long breath.

"Why would that man come for me? Was he sent, or was he actually waiting for me?" she inquired.

When they couldn't find the old man who gave Eveline the letter, she wondered if he was sent to do his job or if his intentions were actually pure.

Gabriel had a grim expression. He, too, questioned the same thing, so he ordered one of his informants to dig into the stationary business and find out who had been there a few days before.
