CHAPTER 31 Workaround

  Elena's POV

  A few days ago, I challenged Gabriel openly, and that same evening I had dinner with Luke. As always Luke listened to the events of my day and expressed his support for what I had done, but he looked a little upset.

  "Gabriel, why does it always involve that dead thing." He muttered softly.

  "Luke, you don't have to worry. I'm not going to run back to him and be with him again." I smiled at his expression.

  "I believe you, you know that," Luke said as he carefully cut the steak on his plate into small pieces and swapped our plates. These well-thought-out, gentle, and loving gestures warmed my heart every time.

  "I also found out something interesting today." Luke continued.

  "Oh? What did you find out?"

  "Gabriel copied your designs."

  Luke gave me a somewhat smug look and told me about the report he had received from his men regarding the information that he had asked them to check today.
