All Chapters of The CEO's Rebellious Woman: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

The Elysian Inc’s R & D Department were still at the amusement park when dark clouds began to form in the sky. They decided to rest in a nearby food stand with a roof above it in case rain poured out. The sun was shining brightly when they went there, so they didn’t bring any umbrellas.Evina was in line for her hot dog order. Gabriel should have stayed at his table as he waited for her to buy for him. But he went with her in the line. “What’s wrong?” Gabriel asked Evina as she was not her usual bubbly self anymore.Wanting to hide her doubts, she gave Gabriel a warm smile. “It’s nothing. Here’s your order, sir.” Then she quickly left and mingled with others. Gabriel’s eyebrows furrowed. He has no idea why Evina was being like that all of a sudden.She also made an excuse that her stomach was aching, that’s why she needed to go home. The others agreed to go home with her, so they would not get

Evina drew in a deep breath as she wondered how she would talk to Gabriel. They were now at The Elysian Building office. Because it's the weekend, there were only a few employees who were there at that moment. They have finished what they were supposed to do for that time. And some of them were already going home. "You can do this, Evina," she thought to herself as she observed Gabriel on his desk. He was typing away on his laptop and he seemed to be oblivious of her. As she observed him, she continued to contemplate about their situation.It's not that she wanted something deep from him. She was happy with the way things are going with them. She has provided for her family and were already saving some for herself. But for the first time in her life, she wanted something that she had never craved before. She wanted a man in her life. 

Gabriel became silent after that phone conversation. Evina to just keep mum. She went to the room that he lent her and decided to put on the gown that they bought from the department store. At first, Evina was hesitant that Gabriel might change his mind. She has no idea what that was about. "But I want to make him happy, somehow." She thought as she put up the red gown in front of her as if she was assessing if it would look good on her. She couldn't forget that look on his face after he had seen her in that red dress. "Maybe I would just wear this for him to see, whether we push through to the event or not." She pondered as she partnered her dress with bright red lipstick and tried to decorate her rose hair. Not only that, but she put it up in an updo with thin tresses flowing on the sides of her face. Then, she wore a pair of diamond-studded dangling earrings on her ears. Gabriel also bought them together with the dress. "I think I'm good to go,

A loud thunder roared from the dark, ominous sky. But Evina wasn't at all daunted. "Should I really talk to Dad now, after all these years?" She sighed as she sipped on her cup of coffee.Evina was already at home after the chaos that she has just gotten out of. Fortunately, Paul was around, and he immediately took her home after knowing what happened. She decided to not think about the issue of the Yangs as she was angry with them. She just decided to focus on her own family issue. "What about Dad?" Maria intercepted her thoughts. She was not used to hiding anything from her sister, so she told her everything that happened. Maria was bewildered at her confession, as she froze for a few minutes before she reacted. Evina ruminated that she would scold her about being in a close relationship with Gabriel, when she clearly warned her not to. But she was astounded with her next question."Are you all right?" She asked with a worr

Meanwhile, Gabriel tried to talk with the Chairman about what happened. He decided to come with him to his villa at the eastern part of the district. The rain overtook them. So when they entered the gates, and they finally stopped in front of the house, Gabriel initiated to come down and brought out an umbrella for the Chairman, so he would not get wet. However, the Chairman just ignored him. He got out of the car and allowed himself to get drenched by the rain. With a sad countenance, Gabriel ran after him and offered him, still, the black umbrella. The Chairman went directly to his room and took a bath, while Gabriel waited outside, still soaked by the rainwater.The Chairman was surprised to see him sitting on his sofa staring at nothingness. It was his first time seeing his son like that. Everything was a surprise to him. He has no idea that one day Gabriel would change like what he did today.He grabbed a towel and g
