Rebirth of Billionaire's Wife

"And who said I will go with you?" Eveline recovered from her stupor and gawked at Gabriel suspiciously.

It was weird to see Gabriel suddenly showing his concern for her. But for his kind information, she wasn't going to fall for it.

Gabriel was about to speak when Jonathan suddenly made his appearance, breaking their intense stare and advancing swiftly toward him.

"Gabriel, what are you doing here son?" Jonathan asked standing next to them.

Gabriel had been hoping to see Eveline since last night, but he was unable to find a suitable excuse to go see her.

Due to his reputation for being aloof and his difficulty expressing his emotions, Gabriel's parents frequently wondered about him and would have assumed the worst if he had suddenly told them he wanted to meet Eveline.

So he gave up on seeing her last night and decided to visit early, but not alone.

"Good morning, Uncle Jonathan," Stefan said, beaming from the front door.

Jonathan wished Stefan a good morning with a smile. "Have you three decided to go together today?" he asked.

Jonathan, who was used to seeing the boys visit Eveline because they were well-known to be childhood friends, was surprised, as he didn't expect them to show up early in the morning.

Stefan looked at Gabriel before forcing an awkward smile.

"Yes, Uncle, that is correct. You realize that it has been days since we drove together. So today we decided to bring Eveline along since we go to the same college" Stefan remarked.

Eveline furrowed as she clearly caught Stefan lying. Though carefree, he had a terrible habit of lying, especially in front of her, who knew him intimately.

"Okay. It's good to be nostalgic," Jonathan said before looking at the time on his wristwatch.

"Okay, kids, I need to rush for the meeting," he said before turning to face Eveline and kissing her head.

Eveline ignored the two and walked out of the house where she found Gabriel's car standing outside.

"I am going to sit next to Tony," Stefan declared as he hurried over to the passenger seat beside the driver, forcing Eveline to take the backseat with Gabriel.

Groaning frustratingly, Eveline was about to open the door but Gabriel did it first.

"Ladies first," he said politely, causing Eveline to roll her eyes at him before she got inside.

Gabriel grinned, hurried over to the other side, and hopped into the car before they took off.

Eveline made every effort to ignore Gabriel and turn a blind eye, but Stefan was unable to control his tongue.

"So Eve, what lessons are you taking from Gabriel?" Stefan asked breaking the silence in the car.

Now that Stefan was aware of Gabriel giving marketing lessons to Eveline, he had to cheer his sister for finally able to court his friend openly.

Gabriel glance to his side and watched Eveline gnash her teeth on his irking remark.

He didn't knew whether he should laugh of get upset because the sight of her glaring eyes at Stefan made him admire her beauty.

'Even when she is upset, her beauty doesn't fade' he said to himself and leaned his hand on the handle, intently staring at her.

"Go on Eve, tell him how you feel now that you have me as your new coach"

"Huh" Eveline gape at Gabriel's playful side that rarely popped up, however Stefan, he couldn't help but giggle.

"Excuse me Mister, don't you even think I am happy having you to be the one teaching me. It's because of Professor Beckham's that I had to agree to let you tutor me or else I wouldn't have share the same air with you"

Gabriel:"..."

Stefan:"..."

Tony:"..."

Eveline didn't hold back her displeasure and blurt it out loud leaving all the three men baffled by her rudeness.

Eveline who was labled to be the kind young miss however she was slapping Gabriel left and right with her words.

"Eh, Hehehe, it was a nice joke, Eve" Stefan felt the air drop inside the car as Gabriel's expression darkened hearing her remark.

Stefan knew how much efforts Eveline had put in to make Gabriel acknowledge her feelings, but what he saw today made him doubt whether she truly wanted to court him or she indeed had a chance of heart.

"I didn't joke. I meant what I said and I seriously don't not want to associate with him anymore" she repeated it out loud.

Eveline had thought about it and came to conclude that she had to come clean to Gabriel about her feelings towards him that no longer exists.

It has been a huge trouble for her ever since everyone learned about her crush towards Gabriel and since then she had been fighting the eyes of the girls who liked him.

However more than that, Eveline wanted to step aside in order to stop Tiffany from scheming against her just so she could manage to defame her in Gabriel's eyes.

Gabriel looked away as he couldn't hide his anger.

Eveline's words were like bee stinging his heart making him feel miserable.

Stefan realized that the situation was dire between them, so he stop talking any further until they reached the college.

"Stop the car!" Eveline suddenly said seizing Stefan and Gabriel's attention.

"What happened Eve? Why did you stop the car here?" Stefan asked.

"I don't want to grab unnecessary attention especially after what happened yesterday" Eveline stated ready to step out but Gabriel stopped her.

"Start the car" Eveline furrowed watching Gabriel instruct the Tony while he grip her wrist stopping her from leaving.

"What kind of behaviour is this Gabriel?" Eveline irked at his overbearing rudeness.

"I should be the one asking you?" Gabriel stated before motioning Tony to follow his instructions.

Eveline wriggle but Gabriel refuse to let her go unless the car drove inside the Aspen College gate.

"Ah" with a strong jerk,Eveline yanked Gabriel's hand away and snapped.

"I am telling you Gabriel, don't you dare touch me and stop being controlling because I no longer fancy you"
