Chapter 259 259: It's important for me to meet my father

The first thing Eveline wanted to do when she awoke was phone her father, but someone had trapped her in his arms so tightly that she couldn't move.

When Gabriel discovered Jonathan had abruptly gone, explaining that he was going out of town for the day, he chose to stay at Eveline's because he did not want to leave her alone.

Not that he intended to do otherwise. But being with her was all he desired, and now that Eveline recalls his words adhering to her like glue, she realises he meant to strike her like a fucking fevibond.

Eveline blinked her eyes a few times before reaching to gently remove his arm off her, making sure her movements would not wake him up.

After much wrestling, she was finally able to break free and swiftly reached out to grab her phone from the side table and attempted to call her father, whose phone was once again turned off.

Eveline was losing patience. She had been trying to remember her father's remarks since last night, but his turning off the phone bothered her. If there was an emergency in the company that required his assistance, why would he deny all contact?

Eveline, unable to contain her curiosity, drove the comforter off and dashed to her study table.

Sitting in the chair, she turned on her laptop and began tracing Jonathan's location, which revealed he was in the same city.

"Why did Dad lie?" She whispered, considering what she was holding on to.

"What's with you early morning?" Gabriel's gruff voice startled her out of her reverie, and she felt his face bending next to hers.
