Return of the Crowned Heiress novel Chapter 450

Howell and Tabitha exchanged looks, seemingly flustered. Finally, Gabrielle's entourage made a move and left them behind.

Kayla shared a car with Gabrielle. She asked, "Aunt Gabrielle, are we heading to Seldvale?"

Gabrielle replied without hesitation, "No. We'll stay in Khogend for a bit."

Kayla was about to nod when she heard a soft cough from the back seat. She snapped around and spotted the pale wrist with the shining rosary bracelet. The man's face finally came into view.

Pete Carrell had good features. He was good-looking, though he looked sickly. Perhaps that was the reason he came across as soft and noble yet non-confrontational.

He wore a gentle expression, looking poised, quiet, tender, and welcoming.

In that instant, Kayla recognized him as Gabrielle's son. That would make him her cousin.

Smiling sweetly, she greeted him, "Hi, Pete…"

Pete coughed a few more times before giving her a nod as a response.

Silence filled the air. Kayla decided to go along with it. She had decided to be on her best behavior.

There were only a total of four people in that car, and each was lost in their own thoughts.

The driver did not make a sound either. He was the odd one out in the entire group.
