Eveline couldn't utter a single word as her mind was still struck by the words Gabriel claimed regarding her.
'His business? What does the term "his business" mean? Am I something he could possess?' The thought itself raised the anger in Eveline's heart and her expression darkened.
"Gabriel, you do not even own me, let alone call my life your business," Eveline snapped, offended at how easily he claimed her life as his.
Gabriel tightened his jaw, seeing how Eveline misunderstood him once more. He just felt like slamming his head against the wall to let her know he was worried about her taking a chance on anything that might get her into trouble. But no matter how much he bleeds, she will only blame him for everything.
Ignoring her words, he decided to focus on continuing the session.
Eveline, too, didn't drag the conversation much when Gabriel had a change of thought and she silently continued to study.
