“I told you. My boss is not here.”
Gabriel almost climbed into the car, observing every corner. There was indeed no one inside other than the driver.
Gabriel got out of the car, and she still suspected that Caleb was here. She voiced her suspicion, “Why do you always appear wherever I am? Is it just a coincidence?”
Lilly managed an awkward smile. “What an odd coincidence! My niece...she’s also studying at this school.”
“Your niece's name? What class is she in?”
“Um... well, about that...” Lilly was at a loss for words.
Gabriel closed the car door. “Don't bother making up stories. I know your relatives are all out of town.”
“Uh, seems you've got that right.”
“Lilly,” Gabriel said firmly, “please tell Caleb that I want to see him.”
Lilly hesitated.
Yes
