Chapter 19
Evelyn was at a loss for how to respond to Gabriel’s sudden gesture of goodwill. Just as she didn’t know what to say,
- y. Ella stepped in and helped her out.
“Can I call you Gabriel then?”
Gabriel cleared his throat, his cars gradually turning red. He didn’t answer the question, but at least he managed to move past this chapter.
stood up
Ten minutes later, everyone had arrived and sat down at the dining table. However, they noticed an extra chair. As they were wondering. Ashley sto and coughed, pretending to be mysterious. “For our gathering today, we have a special guest,” she said. “Starting from today, this person will be our club’s investor, responsible for all the expenses of our club’s activities, including today’s meal!”
As soon as they heard these words, everyone cheered, except for Evelyn.
For some reason, she inexplicably had a feeling in her heart that this mysterious person would be someone she knew.
When Ethan, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, appeared, the speculation was confirmed, and Evelyn didn’t know what to say for a moment.
Ethan walked into the compartment and instinctively tried to walk towards Evelyn, but everyone else had already taken their seats, and the vacant chair was at the top, while there were already people next to Evelyn.
And those two people, he also had an impression of them.
One was Evelyn’s roommate, and the other was the president of the Theater Club.
He had mixed feelings in his heart, wanting Gabriel to step aside, but not knowing what reason to use. He looked at Evelyn, hoping she would take the initiative, but unfortunately, apart from the glance she gave him when he entered the room, Evelyn’s gaze never fell on him again.
There was a moment of hestation, but he still sat down in the position he had already prepared
Although it was only for a moment, Gabriel still keenly noticed Ethan’s gaze.
He poured a glass of juice for Evelyn thoughtfully, and as he handed it to her, he asked softly, “Do you know the investor?”
But it was clear that Gabriel didn’t believe this answer. However, Evelyn didn’t want to answer, so he didn’t ask again.
Everyone was present, and during the wait for the food, they each introduced themselves. After everyone finished their self–introductions, the food started to be served. Gabriel was very attentive and always noticed Evelyn’s thoughts and actions. He would add rice, serve dishes, and pour juice for her, even though Evelyn repeatedly said it was unnecessary. He remained consistent in his ections.
Until another girl came over with a drink, wanting to get closer to him, he maintained a strictly professional attitude, polite but distant, without a trace of interest when facing her.
“Oh, it seems like I’ve also benefited from your Influence.” Ella also noticed Gabriel’s attitude and couldn’t help but get a little closer. Although she lowered her voice, she couldn’t hide the impiled meaning in her words.
Evelyn’s ears turned red as she busied herself with Ella’s teasing and Gabriel’s care, naturally not noticing that Erhan, who remained silent, was also constantly watching her.
