Rebirth of Billionaire's Wife - Chapter 211
Chapter 211: Ashamed and Regretful Chapter 211: Ashamed and Regretful “Seriously Stefan, you are going to take me and your parents won’t know about it?” Ella inquired as she hurried across the room and out into the living hall, agitated by Stefan’s incredible suggestion.
The itinerary for their trip to Bali had caught her off guard, and she was now unsure of how she would approach her supervisor to request a leave of absence.
“That’s why I told you not to be in a secret relationship,” Stefan stated sarcastically, only to receive a sharp look in return.
Ella knew Stefan was purposefully getting her into trouble, but she wasn’t about to let him have his way.
“I will not come.
You can go have fun with your friends,” she declined and turned to go.
Stefan panicked and quickly blocked her way.
“I was kidding, babe.
I understand that we cannot discuss our relationship at this time, but I would like to bring my girlfriend with me.
It will be enjoyable.
Everyone is coming with their partners,” Stefan tried persuading her, and she stopped giving him a skeptical stare.
“You are wrong, Stefan.
There’s only one couple there, Eveline and Gabriel, because I am not going…” she reminded him.
“No, babe.
You are mistaken.
We have another couple in the making.
So it makes us three” Stefan said, prompting Ella to frown.
“What couple?
Daniel?” She inquired, and Stefan nodded.
“How is that possible?” He doesn’t even have a girlfriend.” Her words ended when she saw Stefan beaming, and a notion struck her mind.
“Now way….
Daniel and Gracey?” When she asked, he nodded.
“Yes and he is planning on courting her” stated the man.
Ella was unsure of her feelings right now, but she did find their union charming and cute.
“So he was the friend who kept calling you?” she questioned, recalling Stefan’s extended phone call with someone during their lunch break.
When asked, he replied it was a buddy who needed relationship advise from him, and she felt sorry for his friend for coming to the wrong person.
Stefan, as a relationship advisor, was a corny character, and she would advise anyone to seek his assistance.
“Then I bet it would be a failure since you are the one guiding him,” she shrugged, and his smile faded.
“Babe, how do you say that?
Did you forget that you succumbed for my charms and persistence?” he asked, and she sneered.

“Persistence, you didn’t even give me time to make decisions.
So, realistically speaking, you never courted me like a gentleman,” she replied, taking Stefan by surprise.
“But I am always a gentleman with you?” He whined, upset by her harsh remark.
” Yeah, whatever.
But that still doesn’t persuade me to join you.
What should I tell your father?
“She asked.
Stefan paused for a second before an idea occurred to him, and he smirked deviously at her.
“Just give me a minute,” he said, pulling out his phone from his pocket and swiftly calling someone.
“Hey Dad, there’s something I want your permission for?” He spoke with a cheery smile on his face.
Ella on the hand gape, her eyes balling out like a saucer.
“Actually, I am planning a trip to Bali with everyone, and I wanted to bring Miss Ella along.
Since you gave her my responsibility, I thought it would be fantastic for us to clear our minds and gain some new ideas for the remodeling of our forthcoming project on Blazon Island.” Stefan remained composed, and the manner he spoke astounded Ella.
She had forgotten that they were now discussing the construction of a resort in cooperation with the owner of Blazon Island in the south-east section of County K.
Stefan winked at her bewildered expression, and she shook her head in disbelief.
It just took a few seconds for him to be accepted, and she was joining them.
**** [Inside the cafe] “What is that you wanted to talk about?” Eveline inquired as Gabriel unexpectedly took her to a café instead of her home.
“It’s regarding Alex?” He murmured.
Eveline frowned at the sudden mention of his name.
Her life has been nothing but a rollercoaster ride these days, and she failed to question him about Alex, who is currently receiving treatment at a rehab facility for his mental health issue.
“What about Alex?” She asked, peering intently at him.
Gabriel’s doubts about Alex had grown stronger since he remembered his background, and he was certain that the person who killed him was himself.
However, on his way here, he came across something that caught him off guard.
Suspense built between the two as Eveline waited for Gabriel to respond when a surprising news came on the cafe’s television screen.
The son of one of the most well-known businessmen, Henry Howard, committed suicide at a health care rehabilitation center.
Alex agreed that 23 was discovered dead from an overdose of…” Everything went silent after that, with Eveline’s gaze fixated on the television.
An incomprehensible sensation swirled inside her eyes, and her lips opened and closed at the idea of what was being revealed.
“H-How did he-” she couldn’t continue her sentence since the thought of Alex’s death made her throat dry.
It caught her off guard, but Gabriel’s worried expression drew her in.
“Was this you want to tell?” When she asked, he nodded.
“When?
When did he?” She asked, still processing what she had seen and heard.
“On our way home.
That’s why I brought you here,” he explained, and she ran her palm over her head before covering her lips in surprise.
“This is unbelievable,” she mumbled.
While Eveline was still struggling to come to terms, Gabriel was left with a big question.
Who pushed him, then?
If not Alex, who?
While the entire news channel was reporting one story, Jonathan remained unconcerned, feeling no pity for the person who dared to harm his daughter.
“Boss, what are your opinions on the current news?
Henry Howard’s son has died, and it have already startled the entire nation.” First, the Howard business was on the point of collapse.
It was no secret that they were dealt a blow because they upset the children of two of the country’s most influential people.
However, rumors have spread that the boy committed suicide due of Young Miss.
“I don’t want any of the rumors to reach Eveline; clear them all,” Jonathan warned, and Mark nodded in response to his boss’s command.
Jonathan sighed some files and passed it back to Mark.
His eyes staring at his trusted person and said, “This is about Jedrick.
How long does he intend to stay in nation P?
I would like to have a confidential meeting with him.” “But Boss, young Miss said you shouldn’t-” His words were interrupted in the middle by his furious look.
“I have not forgiven you for the mistake you made, Mark.
You let my girl slip away from your gaze to the lion’s den.
Do you know what would have occurred if Jedrick made his wrick efforts on her?” Mark lowered his gaze, ashamed of his inability to understand it quickly and being duped by Eveline in return.
Jonathan looked away and said, “Get me all the information about him as soon as possible.
There’s a lot to talk about.” After pulling a trick on Jonathan, Jedrick was able to bring Eveline to the event.
However, what astonished him was Eveline’s calculated movements behind the scenes, which he had overlooked.
She ended up excavating more than he could have imagined, and it was now time to pull the reins and strike a bargain with the Devil himself.
Mark pondered, but nonetheless obeyed his boss’s order.
Despite Eveline’s severe warning not to leave the house, Jonathan insisted on going against her wishes since he wanted to clear the bills with his so-called brother.
**** It took Eveline some time to recover from a major blow.
She never imagined Alex would take such a drastic step and terminate his life, but everything she learned from the cops made her remorseful.
Eveline never expected Alex would become so fascinated with her that he committed suicide because he couldn’t live without her, leaving her feeling ashamed and regretful.
She was ashamed that his parents had lost him as a result of her actions, and she was sorry that she couldn’t see him improving.
Eveline stared out the window while they drove.
Her cloudy thoughts gradually cleared, drifting to the notion that she assumed Alex was the one responsible for Gabriel’s death in their previous lives, but now that she analyzed the details, it happened after three years, yet Alex died before the graduation celebration.
Does this suggest Alex isn’t the one who killed Gabriel?
The realisation hit her like a lightning and she turned to look at Gabriel who already had his eyes on her.
“Alex isn’t the one who killed you in your previous life” she mumbled and he continued to fix his eyes on her, unwavered.
“I know.
But then the question is who did it if not him?” CREATORS’ THOUGHTS akshaya_vanne Thank you Inisha1981 for the golden tickets NEW BOOK ALERT Marriage with my daughter’s father: Darling please be gentle
