Chapter 74 Homeless
Chapter 74 Homeless
I told her the truth for her own good, but she didn't believe me. She even thought that I was saying this
because I had been betrayed before and no longer believed in men.
I was supposed to talk about Evie, but now she shifted the topic to me, and she even exposed my
scars in front of Gabriel. I was a little sad.
"Evie, don't you believe me?"
Looking into her eyes, I asked with some reluctance.
"Gabriel is now my boyfriend, and I have given him all of me, so I believe he loves me."
Looking into my eyes, she spoke again firmly.
After saying these words, my heart sank. Evie was determined to trust Gabriel.
"Evie, why don't you believe me? He admitted it to me. We've been friends for so many years. I would
never lie to you."
I didn't give up looking at Evie, hoping that she would believe my words.
If it were someone else, I wouldn't have meddled in their business, but Evie was my best friend. She
was the one who stayed by me during my most difficult times.
Now that she met a scumbag like Gabriel, how could I just sit back and watch?
"Hollie, I'm only explaining to you because you were my friend. From now on, I never want to hear you
saying anything bad about Gabriel. He's my boyfriend, and I trust him!"
Seeing that I was still saying that, Evie got angry. She looked at me with anger in her eyes.
From the firm look in her eyes, it was obvious that she didn't believe me. I was very disappointed. We
had been friends for so many years. Couldn't our friendship stand up to a man she had just known for a
few months?
The two of them had had sex last night. Gabriel must have done it on purpose. He must have known
that I would tell Evie about that incident, so he acted first.
At this moment, I regretted not telling Evie about his true colours last night.
If I had contacted Evie earlier last night, Gabriel wouldn't have succeeded. But it was too late to say
anything now.
"Evie, I'm really doing this for your own good. Can you wise up?"
I walked up to her and grabbed her hand in agitation. My eyes were filled with anxiety.
However, my repeated persuasion made Evie even angrier. She shook me off and looked at me angrily.
"Hollie, you've gone too far. If you continue to say these things about Gabriel, you aren't my friend
anymore!" Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
Her words were like a knife in my heart. I looked at her sadly. I could only see anger on her face.
At this point, my pride had been hurt too. I couldn't believe that she would threaten to break off our
friendship for Gabriel.
"Sorry, I'm being nosy. I'll move out of here right away. I won't disturb you two."
With a pale face, I said these words and quickly rushed into my bedroom.
Evie had already made her intentions clear. I couldn't continue staying in her house any longer.
I took out my suitcase and tidied up my clothes. My eyes were red.
I valued this friendship. It was important to me. But now, because of a jerk, Evie said she wanted to
break it off. I was really upset.
I stuffed my clothes into a suitcase haphazardly. I didn't want to stay here any longer. My relationship
with Evie had been ruined by a jerk.
Soon, I packed up my things. When I walked to the living room with my suitcase, Evie came over and
looked at me with some hesitation.
"Hollie. I didn't mean what I said. I don't want to stop being friends with you, I was just really angry and
the words slipped out."
Looking at me dragging my suitcase, a trace of sadness flashed across her eyes.
"It's okay. I'm leaving."
I waited for her to say this and dragged my luggage to the door.
Although I said it was okay, I was still a little angry. After all, we had been friends for so many years, but
she didn't believe me.
"Hollie, I don't mean to drive you away. You can continue to stay here, as long as you stop slandering
Gabriel."
Shio walked to my side, pulled my hand, and tried to persuade me to stay.
At first, I was very happy that she asked me to stay, but when I heard her last sentence, I was even
more disappointed.
I thought about trying to talk to her again, but she trusted Gabriel too much now. No matter how much I
say, she would never believe me. She would just get angrier at me. I decided to keep my silence.
"No need. If I stay here, I will definitely affect your relationship. I'd better leave."
With that, I turned and left Evie's house. When I was leaving, I clearly saw the triumph in Gabriel's
eyes.
Now that I've left her house, he would be even more unscrupulous. In the future, he wouldn't have to
worry that I would tell Evie about him cheating on her anymore.
After leaving Evie's house, I dragged my luggage along the sidewalk. I didn't know where to go.
When Vaughn betrayed me, it was Evie who took me in. For a long time, I had regarded her home as
my home. Now that I had to leave, I was lost.
Tears welled up in my eyes. I raised my head slightly so that my tears wouldn't fall. I kept telling myself
in my heart that it was no big deal. Sooner or later, Evie would see Gabriel's true colors.
But where could I go now? It was late, so I couldn't rent a room.
Just as I was walking aimlessly on the road and planning to find a random hotel to stay in, my cell
phone suddenly rang.
I stopped and took out my phone from my pocket. Seeing that the caller ID was Brandon, I hesitated for
a moment before answering the phone.
"It's late. What can I do for you?"
I was already in a bad mood, so I did not attempt any politeness when I picked up the call.
There was only one reason why Brandon would call me anyway, and that was sex. I had no mood for it.
If he hadn't forced me to stay last night, I would have told Evie what Gabriel had done.
"Hollie, what's wrong with you? What kind of attitude is that?"
Brandon had never been a good-tempered man. When he heard my unpleasant tone, his anger was
also aroused by me.
I was already very annoyed tonight. Now that he was blaming me, the anger in my heart surged up.
