Chapter 2599

Gabriel's voice grew even lower. “Then just wait until you see Grandpa. Return it to him yourself. He gave it to you—it's not my

place to take it back.”

Sylvia stared at him, her fingers curling unconsciously. “You're leaving tomorrow?”

He nodded. “Yeah.” Suddenly, his gaze flicked past her. The door to the private room next to them swung open, and four or five

people stumbled out, clearly drunk. One of them, shoved by his friends, staggered straight toward Sylvia.

Gabriel reached out and yanked Sylvia to the side just as the drunken man lost his balance and lurched forward.

Pulling Sylvia back with him, Gabriel braced himself against the wall as she collided into his chest. At the stime, he lashed out
