Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 2309

"I'm not showing up!" Gabriel flatly refused.

"Mr. Carnes, it's just rude not to meet them after they've come all this way. It's just a quick hello, nothing more!"

Gabriel remained unfazed, "Exactly because it's made into such a big deal, I can't go!"

Seeing he couldn't persuade Gabriel, Old Mr. Jarvis became a bit anxious, "Am I not calling the shots with you anymore?"

Gabriel stood his ground, "Anything else, sure, but not this!"

"You," Old Mr. Jarvis suddenly grabbed the feather duster from the vase, threatening to swat him, "You might be Gab in Tripe, but at home, you're still my grandson. Defy me, and I'll still give you a whack!"

Just as Gabriel was about to retort, a soft giggle from behind stopped him. He turned around to see Sylvia standing at the doorway, barely holding back her laughter.

Seeing him turn, she quickly looked away, her tightly pursed lips still betraying her struggle not to laugh.

Gabriel's face darkened as his dignity took a hit.

"Sylvia, come in!" Old Mr. Jarvis called out with a chuckle.

Sylvia walked in, trying her best not to look at Gabriel and pretending nothing was amiss, "Grandpa, did you need me?"

"Yes, an elder wants to meet Gab, and you'll accompany him," Old Mr. Jarvis said affectionately.

Gabriel was taken aback, "Take her with me?"

Old Mr. Jarvis smiled knowingly, "Yes, take Sylvia with you."

Gabriel looked at the old man, somewhat exasperated, "Why didn't you say so earlier?"

"And miss the chance for Sylvia to have a good laugh?" Old Mr. Jarvis said, clearly pleased with himself.

Gabriel, "......"

Sylvia couldn't help but laugh, turning her head away, trying not to make it too obvious.
