Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 2268

Valerie's heart skipped a beat when she saw Gabriel willing to chat with her. "Ms. Jarvis is such a sweetheart. I asked her if you had a girlfriend, and she said, 'At his age? How could he not?' She's got a real sense of humor!"

Gabriel's smile faded slightly. At his age?

"She loves her jokes, that one! Always stirring the pot," Valerie chuckled.

Gabriel offered a polite dismissal, "You should go find your dad. I've got things to do. Excuse me!"

Valerie felt a pang of disappointment, but before she could find another excuse to chat, Gabriel had already turned and walked away.

She couldn't help but wonder, what did the girlfriend of such an outstanding man look like?

Meanwhile, Estelle was on a video call with Old Mr. Quintin.

Old Mr. Quintin seemed a bit disgruntled. "I sent him a video call, and he didn't pick up. Has he lost his mind with excitement?"

Estelle laughed, "He's got guests, Grandpa. He's hosting. I'll let him know to call you back when he's free."

"It's nothing urgent. I just wanted to hear him brag a bit," Old Mr. Quintin chuckled.

Evelyn came over to say hi to Estelle.

Estelle mentioned, "We'll head back after the New Year. If you're bored, you could ask Sophia to keep you company."

Evelyn replied, "Sophia already went back to B City. Didn't you know?"

Estelle was surprised; Sophia hadn't mentioned it to her.

Old Mr. Quintin chimed in, "Sophia seemed troubled the day she left. The day after, Jason also went back. What exactly happened?"

Estelle recalled calling Sophia that night and hearing her crying. The next day, she asked Jason, and he mentioned a small spat with Robin.

After Josiah's wedding, Estelle had returned to C City a day later, expecting Sophia to stay until New Year's as usual. She hadn't expected her to leave so soon.
