Chapter 817 Evening Party

• Somehow, Nicole was still hesitating, regardless of Gabriel's promise. She felt that being at Siobhan's birthday party was not a good idea, and it was best that she rejected the invitation, but she really wanted to clear the air; that was the main reason she hesitated.
• Gabriel seemed to see through her thoughts and chuckled. "Miss Anderson, you really have nothing to worry about. No matter how spoiled Evelyn is, she knows she should not repay kindness with malice. Not to mention, it was my parents' idea to invite you to the birthday party."
• It seemed pointless for her to reject him at this point. He was upfront with his intentions and even promised she wouldn't be in for a bad time. She would be seen as an ungrateful wretch if she chose to reject his sincere invitation.
