Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan) novel Chapter 2315

```

"Ah, the main reason was to catch up with Gabriel, and now that we've done that and you've had your say, sticking around seems pointless," Ansel mentioned, "I'll say my goodbyes to Gabriel. Get ready, we're leaving right away."

Ann, having been turned down, felt too embarrassed to face Gabriel and didn't say much else. She went back to pack her bags.

As dusk approached, Sylvia left the bookstore, her spirits lifted by the purchase of two new novels.

Just as she stepped out, her phone buzzed with a call from Gabriel,

"Aren't you in the garden? Did you take the car out?"

Walking and chuckling, Sylvia replied, "Yes, decided to check out the town."

"Still in town?" Gabriel inquired.

"Heading back soon."

Gabriel's voice was calm, "Enjoying the town?"

Sylvia laughed, "It's lively enough!"

"Then wait for me somewhere. I'll come to you."

Sylvia paused, surprised, "You're coming to find me? What about dinner with the guests?"

"Mr. Flair left already," Gabriel explained.

Sylvia was increasingly astonished. The Flairs, having heard of Gabriel's return, rushed over on New Year's Day, and she had noticed Ann's fondness for Gabriel. That they had left so easily was beyond belief!

Gabriel chuckled softly, "You've outdone yourself!"

A glint of mischief in her eyes, yet feigning nonchalance, Sylvia asked, "And how will you thank me?"

"Let's have dinner," Gabriel offered.

Sylvia, phone in hand, leisurely continued forward, a spring breeze in her step, "Dinner alone won't cut it!"
