Serenity took a deep breath and adjusted her emotions before returning to Gabriel’s car. Although the car window was half lowered and cold air had poured in, she could still smell the faint smell of smoke.
She did not know what to say for a moment, so she pursed her lips and did not say anything.
Gabriel turned to watch her carefully. There was a trace of inquiry in his eyes and a playful smile on his lips as he asked, “Are you feeling down?”
She looked at Gabriel. John had hugged her just now and she did not react in time, so she did not resist. However, it might be different in the eyes of others, so she wanted to explain, “Just now…I…”
But Gabriel’s gentle face did not show any signs of displeasure. He still looked as calm as usual. His slightly hoarse voice must have been from smoking a lot earlier. “Is everything clear now between you two?”
“Yes, I’ve made it clear.” She replied softly.
Gabriel continued driving and the two remained silent the rest of the journey. Serenity leaned against the car window and recalled John’s reaction just now. He was acting very abnormally, but it did not seem like he was drunk.
When they arrived at South Bay, Gabriel got out of the car and took out her luggage from the trunk. He dragged the luggage with one hand and put his other hand on her shoulder as they entered the living room.
Mrs. Winstead looked at the two in surprise. Her gaze then swept past the hand on Serenity’s shoulder and landed on the suitcase. “Young Master, this is…”
Gabriel pushed the suitcase forward gently and said, “Bring Young Madam’s suitcase to the master bedroom.”
His words not only answered Mrs. Winstead’s question but also revealed Serenity’s new identity. Mrs. Winstead was stunned for a moment.
“It’s OK, I’ll do it.” Her suitcase was a little heavy and Mrs. Winstead was already so old, so it was inconvenient for her to carry the suitcase up the stairs.
Gabriel took off his suit jacket and handed it to Mrs. Winstead. Then, he proceeded to carry the suitcase up the stairs before Mrs. Winstead could reach out. Serenity smiled at Mrs. Winstead and followed closely behind.
Although Serenity had been to South Bay twice, this was the first time she stepped into Gabriel’s bedroom. The room’s layout was very simple. The curtains were indigo and did not give off a sense of warmth.
“Why are the curtains this color?” She thought she would find such furnishing in medieval homes.
When he was still single, he didn’t think so much about it. But he knew that girls liked bright colors.
He hugged her from behind and said, “If you don’t like it, you can change it. We’ll pick it out together after work tomorrow.””
He hugged her waist and pressed her thin back against his chest. She could feel the man’s strong heartbeat beating against her. She felt very much at ease.
With a faint smile on her lips, she softly said, “Alright.”
Outside the window was a hazy night sky with many stars. The two stood in front of the window and enjoyed the night outside.
Gabriel hugged her quietly for a while before he leaned over and kissed her earlobe. This was her most sensitive spot. She tilted her head slightly to avoid his lips and turned back to glare at him.
His lips curled up silently and his deep eyes shone as they stared into her eyes. He walked to the wardrobe, opened it, and moved his clothes to one side, leaving the other half for her to use. “Clean up first. I’ll go down and get you some water.”
Serenity opened her suitcase and hung her clothes in the wardrobe. The men’s and women’s clothes occupied the respective halves of the wardrobe, making it look very harmonious.
Gabriel’s clothes were mostly black and white, with only two or three pieces of sapphire blue shirts. But they were all high-end custom-made clothes. Any one of them would cost hundreds of thousands..
