Chapter 144

During the next few days, Gabriella hadn’t seen Tristan or Izaak, which was good for her. She had the space to think thoroughly. Gabriella was fond of playing with the ring on her finger whenever she was alone. She’d fall into a daze just looking at it. It had a huge sparkly diamond and could be easily removed from her finger. It symbolized her relationship with Tristan, loose and could easily be removed. Deep in Gabriella’s heart, she knew her relationship with Tristan would soon end. She could feel it. Actually, she wanted to return the ring to its owner. She regretted accepting Tristan’s confession that day. She planned to spend her day in her apartment, but the plan was wrecked when she received a call from Mrs. Cortes, asking to meet up. Gabriella could already anticipate why she wanted to talk to her. She dressed and headed to the coffee shop where they were supposed to meet. Although Mrs. Cortes was in her late 50’s, she was still well-dressed and graceful. She resembled Trevor.
