Chapter 345 345: She is only when she is serious about something

There was an uncomfortable stillness at the table. There were now four chairs at the table, and one was staring at someone while the other two hid in shame.

"Let's leave," murmured Gabriel to Eveline, embarrassed. His palm clutched the hem of her sleeves like an innocent kid seeking only to escape.

"By the way, Miss Sherlyn, how do you know my uncle?" Eveline snatched his hand away. Her eyes were drawn to the lady in front of her.

"We went to the same university," Kaden said, capturing Sherlyn's anxious gaze. His jaw clenched all along.

"Is that so? but how did you connect" Eveline disregarded Kaden's somber glare and continued to converse with Sherlyn.

Through her observation, she could tell that this lady indeed had affections for her uncle, and vice versa. They were, nevertheless, thinking about it.

Meanwhile, Kaden experienced a loss of patience. He did not anticipate Eveline abruptly interrupting his time with Sherlyn. Furthermore, he did not want Sherlyn to feel uneasy about her clear remark.

Kaden wasn't sure Sherlyn would consider him more than a buddy. He was even skeptical that she had someone in her life, which is why he was hesitant to acknowledge his feelings. But now when he thinks about their conversation they had a while ago, a sense of contentment sweeps over his heart, and his lips perk slightly.

"Is this something interesting, uncle? why do you seem to be smiling at the mention of it" Eveline's eager voice took his smile away, leaving him with a gloomy expression.

"There is nothing fascinating about how we met or connected. She is only a friend with whom I was having dinner until you decided to interrupt." Kaden's tone was fraught with resentment.

"I need to speak with my sister about her daughter's recent behavior."

"Kaden" Sherlyn, who felt uncomfortable, attempted to stop him from being harsh to his niece.

Kaden turned away to find Gabriel beaming faintly at him. He carefully leaned in and whispered, "Stop her before it's too late."

Gabriel gasped and looked at Eveline, who was talking to Sherlyn.

"I hope we can catch up more. It would be enjoyable to get to know you, aunt. Eveline was blatant in her statements, taking every opportunity to embarrass Kaden.
