Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The afternoon sun was a glowing dallion as the sunlight seeped in through the curtained window and shone on the calla lily placed on the coffee table, making it look as white and clear as snow.
She took her phone out of her bag and saw that there was only one missed call.
She waited for about five to six minutes, but that person did not call a second ti.
She waited for another few minutes, but her phone never rang.
She lightly hit her brain out of annoyance. She forgot that it was Gabriel she was talking about and not John.
In the past, whenever she threw a tantrum, John would always give way to her. As long as she did not answer her phone, he would keep calling until she was willing to answer.
She forgot that Gabriel and John were two different people.
Be it appearance, presence, or personality, they were miles apart.
Besides, she was only Gabriel’s lover. She was not his girlfriend or wife, so he did not have any reason to accommodate her.
She thought of a plan and made a call to him. After the call was answered, the person on the other end remained silent and did not make a sound. She could only hear his clear and faint breathing sounds.
She said in a gentle tone, “Sorry, President Jones. I went to the washroom just now.”
“Serenity Rivers.” He said her na in a gentle tone, and his cool and clear voice sounded very dry and deep.
It was a very peaceful voice, but it made her have a lump in her throat. It was as though her petty tricks were being exposed over the phone and she felt a hint of anxiety.
Humans indeed could not lie.
Besides, she lied to Gabriel, that powerful and intelligent man.
She pursed her lips and answered, “Yes?”
He remained silent again and said after a while, “Won can be smart, but they cannot be spoiled.”
She rely did not answer his call in a fit of anger. Must he make an issue out of it and claim that she wanted to be spoiled?
Spoiled?
She also hoped that he could spoil her, but he was not that John who would always give way to her tantrums.
She acted dumb and pretended to be shocked. “President Jones, your words are too profound. I don’t understand.”
He did not know where she was now, but noise could be heard over the phone. However, it did not sound as if she was at the market. He said, “There are people who would order blue mountain coffee without sugar in the toilet?”
Serenity was stumped.”…”
She scanned her surroundings. A man, who was wearing golden-frad glasses, had just finished ordering his drink from the waiter. He ordered a cup of blue mountain coffee, and when the waiter walked away, he even raised his voice to say “without sugar.”
Her face was flushed red with embarrassnt while she stuttered, “I… am at a cafe and have just co out of the washroom.”
“Serenity Rivers,” Gabriel called her na out again, and his voice sounded louder than just now.
She instinctively sat upright. If it wasn’t because she was in a cafe, she definitely would have replied with a “present” just like those tis when her teacher was marking the class attendance.
Her gaze landed on a magazine on the table, and the magazine cover showed a woman holding a handbag that had just been listed by LV. The design looked unique and fresh.
In the next instant, she imdiately said, “President Jones, a handbag has just been listed by an internationally-recognized brand. It doesn’t look bad and I really like it.”
He remained silent for a while and said, “I will get Frank to buy it for you.”
Frank was Gabriel’s head secretary. Not only was he responsible for his work schedule, but she was also in charge of his private life. All of the presents given by Gabriel to his lovers were personally bought by her.
Her voice was filled with shock and excitent. “Really?”
He faintly replied, “Yes.”
After that, she told him the brand of the bag and Gabriel listened to her with indifference. After she had said her piece, he only gave a faint “I got it” as his reply to her..
