Rebirth of Billionaire's Wife

Chapter 331 331: He is using the name Bernard

A couple reclined on the car roof, wrapped in a comfortable quilt, under the starry night, with their car parked at the top of the cliff.

The cool breeze continued to blow, but the night provided a distinct level of comfort that kept the couple warm in each other's arms.

"Feeling better?" Gabriel inquired, shifting his gaze from the sky to Eveline.

"Hmm, I wasn't expecting this much comfort," she remarked, meeting his grey orbs.

Gabriel, unable to control his need, leaned in and kissed her lips. It wasn't long, but it did help them both settle down.

"I was getting nervous, but this helped me," she smiled, keeping her chin out and pointing to the sky.

Gabriel continued to stare at her as she gazed at the stars. However, a phone call quickly interrupted his serene moment.

Gabriel pulled out his phone and answered it.

"Okay, we'll be right there," he remarked, catching Eveline's gaze as she frowned.

"Are we going somewhere?" she inquired, gradually pushing herself up.

"Yes," Gabriel replied, confusing Eveline even more.

Finally, the couple got into their car and drove away.It barely took them fifteen minutes to reach the coffee shop, where Leon was already waiting for them.

Eveline frowned, checking her wristwatch. She was curious as to why Leon had summoned them at this hour, so she quietly followed Gabriel as they settled into the corner table.

Ella tiptoed to the bedside table, cautiously opening the drawer. Her eyes glistened with hope when she discovered the envelope lying inside and hurriedly snatched it.

Ella stared at her mother with caution before hastily pulling out her phone to take photos of the letter within. She made sure to limit the camera's clicking sound to a minimum and completed her tasks fast.

She folded the letter back, kept it inside the envelope, and closed the drawer.

Ella was back on her feet and ready to leave the room when Mischelle summoned her.

"Ella, what are you doing here?"

Ella paused, her face filled with dread as she heard her mother call her name.

Mischelle pushed herself up and switched on the table lamp. She directed her confused gaze at the rigid back.

Ella, on the other hand, controlled her nerves and turned to face her mother.

"I—I came to check on you," she murmured, hiding her phone behind her back.

Michelle's furrowed eyebrows thinned, and she yawned.

"I'm absolutely fine. Mischelle tried to reassure her.

"Yes, I see that," she replied with an uneasy smile.

Mischelle was puzzled, but it didn't bother her too much. "Go get back to bed and let me have a good sleep," she said, and Ella raced out of the room, adding, "Goodnight, Mom."

Ella was like a mouse fleeing into a hole. Her back smashed against the wooden surface as she closed the door, her hand resting on her heart, feeling it pound.

"That was close," she murmured, taking her time to calm down before she noticed her phone.

As she opened the photos to read the letter, her face darkened and her eyes became icy.
