“There will always be a way.” The manager pondered for a moment and asked the question that had puzzled her all this while: “Every time you encounter difficulties, he would be there for you. Why is that?”
Her manager’s words reminded her that every time Gabriel met ‘that’ person, he would be flustered. She had found another way.
Serenity and Gabriel took the elevator to the second floor for their meal. The restaurant was very big and was divided into two types of food, Chinese and Western. The two of them decided to have Chinese today.
As they entered the restaurant, Serenity was reminded of the gourmet restaurant in the mountains to eat hairy crabs. She had gone there once with Wendy Jones and during the meal, Serenity was convinced she would return for more. But when she reached home, her stomach started to feel uncomfortable.
When Mrs. Winstead found out what Serenity had eaten, the former gently chided the latter, saying that crabs are not good for pregnant women to consume.
Well, Serenity did find it troublesome to peel the shell, so she was fine with not having it for the time being.
After the meal, the couple went to the maple forest behind the resort. Large maple trees stood tall on both sides of the three-meter-wide cobblestone path. The canopy they formed looked like red clouds in the sky, swaying in the bleak autumn wind.
Serenity and Gabriel were not the only ones admiring such a beautiful scene. Many other couples strolled the same path, some even taking a picnic under the trees. Passionate kisses were exchanged between couples, swayed into the mood by the beauty of the scenery.
There were a few people taking photos with cameras. Serenity and Gabriel had not come prepared as they came on a whim. Still, unwilling to let such an opportune moment go to waste, Serenity whipped out her phone instead.
She held her phone high and looked for the best scenery. As she turned around, Serenity saw the man leaning against the maple tree, making a call.
Above his head was a patch of red maple leaves against the afterglow that was about to set in the west. What an exquisite sight to behold.
She focused her aim and snapped a picture. Gabriel sensed something and looked up but Serenity immediately turned away and pretended to take a picture of the scenery beside her.
Gabriel ended the call, approached his wife, and took her phone away. He opened the photo album and swiped through her photos. He stopped at his photo and waved the phone at her. “Have you been secretly taking pictures of me?”
“There’s no secret. We’re in public so I’m doing it openly.” She was obviously feeling guilty, but she did her best to sound confident. Then, two girls taking pictures of Gabriel caught her attention. “Compared to them, at least I’m taking photos of what’s mine.”
Gabriel followed her line of sight and saw two girls standing a few meters away. One of them was facing them with a camera. The moment he looked over, he heard a click.
When the two girls saw him looking over, they immediately turned around with their cameras and left.
Serenity took her phone from his hand. “Did you see that? That’s what you call taking photos secretly.”
Gabriel quickly walked towards the two girls. His legs were long, so he quickly caught up and blocked their path.
They had already moved quite a distance from Serenity so she could not hear what he said to them. She only saw his cold lips move before one of the girls passed her camera to him. He took it and pressed a few buttons on it before returning the camera to her. Then, he walked back to his wife.
With long steady steps taken by a tall and lean body, Gabriel never failed to look like a masterpiece, especially when the wind casually ruffled his black hair against a red background of maple leaves and the setting sun.
Serenity thought he looked like a drama character, illusory and supreme.
Entranced, Serenity could hear the background noise fade away as if she had entered the same drama Gabriel was starring in..
