Chapter 710
Chapter 710:
Gabriela reached the airport earlier than expected.
Landing without delay, the plane brought Wesley into view as he emerged from the VIP passage.
A black trench coat framed his tall build, every sharp line of his face carved in cold precision, carrying a detached elegance that made him impossible to ignore.
Even in a crowd, he was the man who drew every glance.
Two years had slipped by, yet the moment their eyes met, Gabriela’s vision blurred with sudden heat. Her lashes trembled, eyes reddening as emotion surged.
Wesley walked alone, no assistant in sight, his suitcase rolling behind him with a steady rhythm. When his gaze caught the woman standing nearby, her eyes shimmering with unshed tears, his brow knit faintly in response.
Forcing down the swell of feeling, Gabriela quickened her pace and broke into a run toward him.
But before she could reach him, a bright, clear voice carried across the terminal. “Slow down, Wesley. I can’t keep up with you p>
It was none other than Myah.
Turning just enough to look back, he let a subtle smile flicker at his lips. “I’m waiting p>
Myah glanced over, spotted Gabriela, and her entire face lit up in delight. “Gabriela p>

Without sparing Wesley a glance, she darted toward Gabriela and seized her hand with giddy enthusiasm. “I can’t believe it, Gabriela. I’m really seeing you now p>
Gabriela, though yearning to speak with Wesley, forced herself to remain gracious and smiled warmly at Myah. “Myah, have your eyes healed completely p>
“They’ve been fine for a while now. I only went to Athea for the last round of treatment.” Her gaze lingered on Gabriela, eyes brimming with awe. “You’re stunning, Gabriela. Even more gorgeous than in the photos! No wonder Allan was so taken with you back then p>
Her unrestrained admiration rang out brightly, making Wesley’s frown tighten as he stood behind her.
Awkwardness crept into Gabriela’s expression, tightening her smile. “Myah, you’ve misunderstood. Allan and I were nothing more than friends p>
She tried to make it clear, wanting Myah to know there had never been anything between them.
Yet Myah hardly seemed to hear, her gaze fixed on Gabriela’s face until it dropped suddenly to the earrings glinting at her ears. “Wait, Gabriela, are those the earrings from Allan? They look good p>
At that remark, Wesley’s jaw tightened, his expression turning glacial.
Gabriela hurried to correct her, shaking her head. “No, these came from Tessa. Allan never gave me earrings p>
“He didn’t?” Myah blinked, confusion clouding her tone. “But I’m certain I heard Allan say he’d bought a pair for your birthday p>
Knowing how deeply Allan lingered in Myah’s heart, Gabriela forced herself to stay calm and gentle, answering with quiet patience. “You might have gotten that wrong p>
“No way.” Myah shook her head, stubborn and certain. “There has to be such a pair! If not, come with me later to my house—we’ll find them p>
Gabriela started to tell her it wasn’t necessary, but Myah’s expression clouded. She lowered her gaze and murmured, “Perhaps something happened with Allan, and he never found the chance to give them p>
