Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It must have been the fatigue from work because even Selena felt that her voice was sounding perfunctory as she said, “With such an adorable daughter like Eva, I’m sure I’ll be able to find someone else who would dote on her as if he is her real father, so please don’t worry so much, Grandpa.”
Master Samson closed his eyes and frowned, wrinkling his broad forehead.
Selena’s phone had been buzzing throughout her conversation with Master Samson. She muted it the first time it rang so she had been ignoring the call – it was her assistant.
After Master Samson went to bed, Selena left the ward to call her assistant back. There was urgent work to deal with so Selena had to return to the company, leaving Serenity and Helena in the ward.
Benjamin returned once he was done speaking with the attending doctor about Master Samson’s condition. Since his father had fallen asleep, he gave Serenity a look and opened the door. Serenity got the cue and left the ward with him.
Benjamin Rivers stopped in his tracks and said, “I’ve heard about what happened at the resort. President Jones treats you well, so you have to be a qualified wife.”
“I will,” said she calmly.
Benjamin looked at her from the corner of his eyes. “I don’t want to see you and Selena walking the same path. Do you understand what I mean?”
“Don’t worry, we have a very good relationship.” She was silent for a moment as she pursed her lips.
Benjamin was telling her to maintain her marriage and not divorce Gabriel.
After all, not everyone could get close to Gabriel, so Benjamin Rivers hoped they would stay together. Moreover, Benjamin wanted to remain as Gabriel’s father-in-law.
“Good,” said Benjamin as he buttoned up the middle button of his suit. “I have something to deal with at the company so I’ll leave you and your mother to take care of your grandfather in the hospital.”
In the president’s office, Gabriel was handling some documents when his phone on the table rang. He picked it up and saw that it was the landline number of South Bay. Serenity’s quiet and charming face appeared in his mind, but he brushed it away the next second.
She had been angry with him for the past two days, so she wouldn’t call him. Besides, she had a cell phone, so why would she use the landline?
It must be Mrs. Winstead. But she rarely called him at work, unless it was something urgent. Gabriel started to frown and immediately picked up the call.
Serenity had left the house in a hurry, looking anxious. Worried that something terrible might have happened, Mrs. Winstead thought it was best to also let Gabriel know about it. “Young Master, Young Madam went out.”
Gabriel leaned back in his office chair and said, “She’s the Young Madam, not a prisoner. She can go out whenever she wants and doesn’t have to report to me where she goes.”
Mrs. Winstead realized she had not spoken clearly, causing Gabriel to misunderstand. Awkwardly, she said, “Young Madam was in a hurry when she left. I was afraid that something would happen.”
“When?” Gabriel frowned and pondered for a moment.
“Just now,” said Mrs. Winstead.
“I understand,” said he in a clear voice.
Just then, Caleb knocked on the door and entered, gabriel immediately instructed Caleb to find out where Serenity had gone. Ten minutes later, Caleb reported that Master Samson had been hospitalized. “So, Young Madam has gone to the hospital.”
Other than Helena Turner, no one in the Rivers family liked her. Gabriel frowned, knowing no one in the Rivers family besides Helena and Selena liked Serenity. But Master Samson was seriously ill and would not make things difficult for her, which helped relax his brows, “Go back to work.”
When Joseph Lopez called, Gabriel was already on his way to the hospital. With one hand on the steering wheel, Gabriel answered the phone with the other. Joseph heard the sound of a car horn and asked, “You’re off work so early? It’s not like you..”
