Chapter 258 - 258: Her Crush (1/2)

Gabriel stood by the railings of the dining room's balcony. The cool evening wind gently kissed his skin and danced with his ash-blonde locks. His chin propped on his knuckle as he let out a tired sigh.

The a.d.u.l.ts were inside, talking about stuffs he didn't find interesting. Though it's great to see your relatives once in awhile, he couldn't help but find this kind of occasion boring.

There wasn't anyone around his age. He played with his nephew, Renren, and taught him how to play one of his favorite games in the phone before he was snatched by the a.d.u.l.ts to fondle him.

One of the reasons why Gabriel was in the balcony was to escaped having his cheeks pulled and his hair ruffled by his relatives.

How embarrassing is that! He's almost 19 for goodness' sake!

Sigh, how much he wished he could just climb up from here to his bedroom. Yifei and the team are probably online, waiting for him to log-in.

And that woman was probably ringing his phone multiple times by now. Even before he asked for a leave, she wouldn't stop bothering him and prying in his business.

So, he temporarily blocked her only connection to him.

”Gab! Come and greet your second aunt!” His mother called him from the window doors' frame.

Pushing himself off the railings, he walked back inside.

”Gabriel!” His second aunt, Celine Bai, grabbed both of his cheeks and squeezed them.

”Ow, ow, ow!”

”Hehe, so handsome! You look just like your father!” Celine Bai may look innocent, but she's the craftiest and the most cunning out of his father's siblings.

She's the youngest and a certified troublemaker in her youth—and probably even now that's why she isn't married yet.

Gabriel grunted as he caressed his beaten-up cheeks.

Yeah, he looked just like his father that's why his second aunt love to bully him.

Alexander Bai, in the past, love to tease his youngest sister. Celine cannot do anything about it, so she retaliates by disposing her annoyance on her nephew.

Despite that, Celine Bai was fond of him the most—not that her actions shows it.

”Your good daughter isn't here yet? What's taking her so long?” Celine Bai asked her eldest sister-in-law.

”Lillie said something urgent came up so, she and Ethan will be late.” Agathe replied.

Celine rubbed her chin, ”Hmm...the infamous devil, CEO Li, is coming here too, I see.”

Celine Bai is an A-list actress that worked with Sunrise Entertainment, and one of the few who got a role in a famous Hollywood movie.

Of course, as someone who worked for Sunrise, it wouldn't be a surprise if Celine Bai knew Ethan Li, especially his father.

Li Yefeng is her brother's good friend. Back then, the young Celine had a huge crush on him.

But that infatuation died down when she

found out he was already engaged.

”Aiyo, that daughter of yours was like a cold rock. She never had a relationship, and now she's getting married soon? Are you sure you didn't forced her into this?” Celine Bai gave her eldest sister-in-law a dirty look.

”Of course not! Is that how you see me? I'm offended!” Agathe raised both of her hands in defense. ”I only gave those two a little push. The truth is, they actually knew each other since high school. Alex's friend, Li Yefeng, knew his son was in love with our Lillie, and I accidentally found out that Lillie had a crush with him.”

”If that's so, then why were they fighting like cats and dogs before?”
