Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan) novel Chapter 2135

Just now, Evelyn caught a whiff of Sylvia's delicate fragrance lingering on Gabriel. Her nose was a gift, a personal radar for scents, and she remembered each one distinctly. Sylvia's scent was soft and subtle, irresistibly pleasant, etched into Evelyn's memory with clarity.

At this moment, the same scent intertwined with Gabriel's own robust, cool aura, creating an ambiguous fusion on him.

Evelyn's mind flashed back to the previous night when Gabriel instinctively pulled Sylvia into his protective embrace as the acid bottle flew towards them.

So, Gabriel has feelings for Sylvia?

A tinge of disappointment washed over Evelyn.

No wonder he had flatly rejected the marriage idea the moment Old Mr. Quintin broached the subject.

He already had someone in his heart.

But if he had someone he liked, why wouldn't he tell Old Mr. Jarvis?

Villa del Sol.

Estelle and Jonathan, along with Milo, had spent the day wandering the hills and returned to their villa when Magdalen's call came through.

"Ella."

Magdalen's buoyant tone seemed to warm the crisp evening air.

"Magdalen," Estelle replied with a light laugh.

"Where are you? Let's hang out tonight," Magdalen suggested cheerfully. "I've got Carson coming, and he's bringing some friends over—Charlie and Emily are in too."

Estelle remembered she wanted to thank Marina and Carson and readily agreed, "Sure, where are we meeting?"

"Let's hit up the old haunt, 9th Mansion."

"I'll head over with Jonathan from Villa del Sol, might be a bit late though."

"No rush." Magdalen laughed. "We'll wait for you."

"Alright."

After hanging up, Estelle turned to Jonathan, "Magdalen suggested a get-together tonight; she's already touched base with Mr. Foster and Charlie."

Before Gabriel could respond, Old Mr. Quintin suggested, "Gab, why don't you take Nora along?"

Gabriel replied, "It might be a late night."

"The later, the better, as long as you're with her, I'll rest easy," Old Mr. Quintin chuckled, then turned to Evelyn, "Go on, have fun, young people should socialize."

"I'll come back and keep you company later then," Evelyn beamed.

"Don't worry about me, just enjoy yourself." Old Mr. Quintin said with affection.

Evelyn nodded and made her way to Gabriel.

Gabriel didn't object and soon they were in the car, heading to 9th Mansion.

On the drive, Evelyn was elated, marveling at the glittering cityscape of J City, trying to strike up a conversation with Gabriel.

Gabriel, however, was reserved, contributing a word here and there, seemingly focused on driving.
