Calvin looked over Serenity’s shoulder and noticed Gabriel and Joseph walking towards them. He smiled and said, “Your superior is here.”
Serenity turned around and saw Gabriel and a very handsome man walking towards them. Both were holding a glass of champagne in their hands.
She had never seen Joseph Lopez before, so she did not know that the person next to Gabriel was the host of today’s banquet.
Calvin watched their approach and smiled. “Congratulations, President Lopez.”
Joseph was dressed in a suit, looking elegant with a smile on his face. It was obvious he was in a good mood today. “If Mr. Gilbert is envious, then you need to work harder.”
After saying that, the corners of his mouth curled up into a playful smile as he glanced at the female companion beside him ambiguously.
Calvin Gilbert may be a playboy, but he was still a gentleman and simply smiled in response to Joseph’s words.
Serenity instantly knew the man before her was Joseph Lopez.
When she heard the socialites talk about Joseph Lopez and his wife, she could hear the envy in their words, saying how lucky Mrs. Lopez was for marrying her husband.
Joseph noticed Serenity looking at him and greeted her with a smile, “Hello, I’m Joseph Lopez.”
Serenity felt a little flattered and fell into a momentary shock. She returned his introduction by saying, “Hello, President Joseph, my name is Serenity Rivers. Congratulations on adding two new members to your family.”
Joseph Lopez had lived for nearly thirty years. If he had to choose a day when he was happiest, besides his wedding day, today would be it. He smiled so widely at her words that he could hardly close his mouth. “Thank you.”
Joseph had invited some friends and people with whom he had good business relationships. As the banquet progressed, a few people were already clamoring to see the Lopez family’s precious children.
So in the end, Joseph had no choice but to ask his servants to carry the two babies over.
Serenity could tell that Gabriel and Joseph had an unusual relationship and asked, “You knew President Lopez before this?”
Gabriel looked down into his champagne glass and casually swirled it in his hand. “University classmate.”
So that was the case.
Joseph overheard their conversation and decided to add some fun. “Gabriel used to be a famous person in school. We always did well in every exam, and in our sophomore year, I scored three points higher than him in calculus. He challenged me to a game of basketball for an entire afternoon and said that if he couldn’t beat me in the next exam, he would twist his head off and let me kick it like a ball.”
Serenity scoffed, finding it hard to imagine the mature and steady Gabriel she knew would do something so childish. However, it also didn’t sound too farfetched.
Gabriel knew how much fun Joseph was having while talking about their past, so he chimed in and said, “At that time, you were the male god in the hearts of the girls. Even your little wife was smitten by you. She followed you into our high school and then our university.”
As the two talked about their university days, one could see the nostalgia they were experiencing. Serenity simply listened, enabling them to continue reminiscing over their past.
Joseph said, “Fortunately, 1 didn’t miss her and now will have her until our last breaths. God has been kind to me=”
He stopped mid-sentence and walked quickly toward the middle of the hall. Serenity looked up and saw a beautiful woman standing on the steps outside, holding a baby in her arms. The woman had delicate skin as white as porcelain while her long hair draped lusciously over her shoulders..
