Chapter 262 262: I am sorry love

"Eveline, Gabriel what are you doing here?" Jonathan's sudden entrance stopped them in their tracks.

Eveline and Gabriel exchanged apprehensive looks, not expecting Jonathan to emerge from the room described by the receptionist. But now that their suspicions were validated, Jonathan was in the same location and hotel.

"We should be asking Dad, what are you doing here? Weren't you out of town?"

Eveline's countenance was blank as she peered directly into her father's eyes.

Jonathan was taken aback by her coolness and botched his words before shifting his gaze to Gabriel, who also appeared doubtful of him.

"I will tell you everything, but first come with me," he said, causing them to crease their forehead.

Their gazes raced to the door from which he had just come out, and he quickly reopened it and motioned for them to join him.

"I am sorry for keeping your father occupied, but if not for him I would have died bleeding on the road" The lady said, casting a quick glance at Jonathan before returning her gaze to Eveline.

"I found this lady on the way to the airport. She had an accident and no one was there to help her. So I had to postpone my meeting and step to assist the lady with her treatment." Jonathan spoke without glancing at Eveline.

"If not for him, maybe I would have died," the lady continued appreciating Jonathan,unless she noticed Eveline's doubtful stance vanish.
