Gabriel nodded, "Then let's head back home."
Estelle cautioned, "But keep this from Grandpa, okay?"
"Got it," Gabriel replied, turning to start up his car. Evelyn and Estelle bid farewell to Sylvia as they climbed into the passenger seat.
As the car pulled away, Sylvia turned to Estelle, "Is your hand still hurting?"
"Not at all, just a scratch. You should head back too," Estelle said with a light smile.
Sylvia expressed her concern, "That Antonia seemed unhinged. Even though she's taken to the station today, they won't hold her for long. You need to be extra careful. People like her can do crazy, unpredictable things."
"I will be," Estelle assured her.
"Alright, I'm off then," Sylvia waved goodbye to Estelle and turned to Eugene, "Let's go."
After making a couple of calls, Jonathan said to Estelle, "We should swing by the hospital to get that hand looked at."
"It's really not that bad," Estelle insisted, taking his hand. "Let's not make a mountain out of a molehill. Home, please."
Jonathan gave her hand one more look before helping her into the car.
On their way to Old Mr. Quintin's place, Evelyn, still shaken by the memory of the acid bottle flying at her, asked Gabriel, "What's with that woman's vendetta against Estelle? Why would she hurt her? Is it something to do with Citadel?"
Gabriel's expression was cool. "She's just a nutcase."
Seeing Gabriel's tense profile, Evelyn tried to comfort him, "Don't worry about Estelle. With the Lamont family looking out for her, she'll be fine."
Gabriel gave a slight nod and kept his eyes on the road, silent.
Evelyn tried to lighten the stiff atmosphere, "I always knew Estelle could handle herself, but I had no idea Sylvia was also skilled. The way she threw those punches was seriously cool."
Gabriel snorted, "She's too concerned with appearances. All show and no substance just knows a few flashy moves."
Evelyn's curiosity piqued, "You know Sylvia?"
She recalled how Gabriel had instinctively protected Sylvia from the acid attack and the familiar undertones in his voice when he spoke of her, despite his apparent disdain.
Gabriel didn't respond to her question.
Evelyn continued, "The guy with Sylvia, is he her boyfriend? He's quite handsome and seems very distinguished."
"I wouldn't know. Why don't you ask her yourself?" Gabriel replied flatly.
For some reason, Evelyn sensed Gabriel was either irritated or simply unwilling
to chat. Taking the hint, she closed her mouth and gazed out the window, leaving Gabriel to his thoughts.
Meanwhile, Eugene, curious about the commotion they had left behind, asked Sylvia what had happened.
"A friend came over for a meal and ran into a lunatic," Sylvia explained.
