Chapter 343 343: Have you met my father before?

Gabriel was leaning against his car, fiddling with his phone, when he noticed Eveline, who was furious, making her way out of the house and towards him.

"Is everything okay? Did she tell you why she went to the doctor?" Gabriel inquired. Despite being aware of the reality, he preferred to hear it from Eveline herself.

"No, a phone call interrupted our conversation even before we could begin," Eveline muttered, her chest heaving forcefully as she attempted to calm her emotions.

Gabriel paused in realization.

"Maybe I am overstressing." Eveline spoke when she had calmed down.

She had been doubting even the smallest details to the point of intrusiveness. But why did her mother's discovery of the lie take her by surprise?

Gabriel gazed at her dejectedly. He tried to say, 'No, you are not,' but he wasn't sure he could.

"Okay, let's not think about it now. I believe it's best if we give her some time to open up," he suggested, hoping to divert her attention. She agreed, and soon they were in the car, prepared to leave for work.

Erna, who was watching the car slide away, sighed, gripping the phone in her palm.

"Eveline is suspicious of me. I need to be quick in recalling my missing memories," Erna reflected.

She'd already planned how she'd confront Jonathan once the truth was revealed, but she couldn't tell anyone what she was up to beforehand.

"I should exercise caution," she said, mentally noting her actions before heading back to her room.

Kaden and Sherlyn reconnected a few days ago, and since then, they haven't stopped talking. They had planned a weekend together and discussed it several times, but he has been unable to contact Sherlyn since yesterday.

Kaden looked at the last text he sent her, but she did not respond, and even in the morning, when her reply would be the first thing he saw, there was complete stillness from her end.

"Why is it taking her so long? She would have arrived by now." Kaden glanced at his wristwatch and then back ahead.
