"Wow! I had never thought that she would be so furious when she would come to know about the crown prince!"  murmured Eve when she held the hands of Eli, "she even sent that lizard back before continuing the topic." she exclaimed with a bright face. Though she dreaded the presence of her aunt, she was delighted that Gabriella had taken their side!
