Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Serenity Rivers asked the driver to drop her off by the roadside. Then, she got out and paid the fare. Soon, she found herself standing by the roadside, waiting. Not long after, Gabriel Jones’s car stopped in front of her.
She pulled the door open and got in. When she saw only Gabriel Jones in the car, besides his driver Caleb, she decided to tease him again. “Aren’t President Jones afraid of facing the wrath of Jocelyn White by not accompanying her all the way back to her place?”
Gabriel Jones crossed his legs and leaned comfortably against the back of his seat. His eyebrows lifted as he glanced sideways at Serenity. Then he lazily asked, “Are you jealous?”
Serenity smiled and her eyes shone like black diamonds while dimples appeared on her cheeks. “Of course, our relationship isn’t over yet, is it?”
As she spoke, she leaned into his shoulder and linked her arm with his.
Gabriel Jones smiled silently. And that was how they remained as the car drove along. Caleb had turned invisible.
The couple ended up at Berlin Restaurant. When the waiter saw Gabriel Jones, he immediately called his manager over. When Manager Loeb arrived, he greeted them with a smile. “President Jones, you’re here.”
Gabriel responded indifferently and asked for a private room. Manager Loeb personally brought them to the requested room and stayed to take their order.
Manager Loeb took the menu from the waiter and handed it to Gabriel Jones. But Gabriel simply raised his chin slightly and Manager Loeb immediately handed the menu to Serenity instead.
She took the menu and thanked him, to which Manager Loeb politely said, “My pleasure.” Then, he took another menu and handed it to Gabriel.
After browsing the menu, Serenity casually ordered a few dishes. She was more inclined towards the vegetarian ones. In the past few years she was in California, her taste had become very light.
Gabriel noticed that she added a few meat dishes after she was done ordering the vegetarian ones. He passed the menu to Manager Loeb and said to Serenity, “You are too thin, you can’t just eat vegetables.”
Serenity was a little flattered as she looked up and sincerely said, “Thank you for your concern, President Jones.”
While waiting for their dishes, Serenity went to the washroom. On the way back to the private room, she passed by another and heard the faint sobs of a girl inside.
There was a gap in the doorway of the private room. As Serenity peeked through, she saw that the people in the private room were Julian Hall and his gang.
The sobbing woman seemed to only be in her early twenties. She looked pure as she wore a white dress. But her tears continued to roll down her cheeks as she appeared almost as if she was begging Julian Hall for something.
Serenity recognized the girl crying as Calvin Gilbert’s ex-girlfriend. They had met in the cafe a few days after she returned to Cador. Her name was Faye.
As Serenity stood outside the private room, she could roughly hear what transpired in there. Faye had left Calvin Gilbert for Julian Hall, but after a few days, Julian Hall got tired of her and decided to switch to another female partner.
Unfortunately, by then, Faye was already pregnant, and Julian Hall was responsible. But he was a famous playboy in Andalas, so it wasn’t surprising that he wasn’t willing to compromise just because a woman was pregnant.
Julian Hall had brought his female companion to this dinner, but he didn’t expect this woman to appear and ruin his mood.
He leaned lazily against the back of the chair as he looked coldly at the crying woman.
Seeing that Julian Hall was unmoved, Faye knelt with a thud and said tearfully, “Master Hall, I’m pregnant, it’s true. You told me that you would only love me.”
Serenity shook her head lightly. This woman was quite stupid. How could she believe the words of a person like Julian Hall? Before she started dating him, did Faye not do her background research on him?
Then, a deep and magnetic voice came from behind her. “It’s not very polite to peep and eavesdrop on others..”
