Chapter 637: Missing
A Few Hours Ago:
His grip on the steering wheel had made his knuckles white as he drove his car out of the woman’s house. Honestly, he was sick and tired of these games that Arabelle had played and Elena Winthrope insisted on playing. The audacity of that woman! She actually dared to try and contact Autumn and lead her on behind his back.
That woman really did think that she could control him because of Arabelle. Thankfully, he had Autumn now. So he was not that same blindly foolish Gabe.
He sighed and thought back to the conversation that he’d just had with that infuriating woman. At least he’d learnt something of importance.
Just looking at her smug face had made him want to turn back and leave, instead of the reason he was here. And then she’d said," I was expecting you. Though I thought you’d respond sooner." As if she knew him too well to know what he would do next.
Gabe had kept his expression neutral, refusing to give her the satisfaction of knowing how much she irked him. Without a word, he reached into his pocket, pulled out the USB, placing it on the table between them.
Her eyes had flicked to the small device, and he watched the hint of triumph in her gaze. "My patience is at an end, Elena," he said, his voice cold and measured. "I won’t take kindly to any more attempts to you trying to interfere."
Elena’s confident facade faltered momentarily. "Have you even watched the contents of the USB?" she had asked, a touch of confusion in her voice.
He felt the satisfaction then. She had expected him to come running for Arabelle. With a simple nod, he answered," Yes." and watched the disbelief on her face as she scrutinized him with eyes narrowed, "Did you watch all the way?"
