Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Serenity quickly asked a waiter for Gabriel’s location and passed on the message to Linda.
Once Linda had settled her companions in the room, the two headed to Gabriel’s private room together.
“Miss Linda, I need to go to the washroom. You go first.”
Linda did not doubt her and nodded. “Alright.”
Serenity went to the washroom and stayed there for half an hour before coming out. She estimated that it was about time and went to the private room where Gabriel was.
The private room was very big when she pushed the door open. Everyone inside turned their heads to look at the door in unison and their gazes fell on her.
Gabriel was seated at the center of a genuine leather sofa while a few young men and women surrounded him. All of them were well-dressed, beautiful, and charming.
A beautiful woman sat next to each of the guests. From their sexy attire, one could easily tell that the ladies were ‘workers’ here.
However, none dared to sit beside Gabriel. If it wasn’t for the rumors that he would change lovers regularly, others would have suspected that there was something wrong with his body.
Someone chuckled softly. “Why is there another one?”
Her voice wasn’t loud, but Serenity heard her. By ‘another’, it must mean Linda had been here.
And if she wasn’t still here, she must have been chased out.
Would Serenity end up like her?
“Are you also here to look for President Jones?”
Gabriel merely raised his head to glance at her before lowering his head to place his cards. He did not expect her to have the ability to find her way here.
“Yes, I’m here to look for President Jones.”
Everyone’s eyes were filled with suspicion and curiosity as they smiled meaningfully.
She walked closer to Gabriel and saw that he was ignoring her. She immediately felt very awkward.
She lowered her head and gently tugged at his rolled-up sleeves, saying softly, “I want to stay in Zephyr Group.”
She was petite to begin with and now that she was begging him, she looked a little pitiful.
The ridicule in everyone’s eyes was replaced by surprise as they stared at the two of them thoughtfully.
Gabriel continued to ignore her and touched his cards indifferently.
It was as if they were watching a show, but when they saw how indifferently Gabriel was, they immediately lost interest and continued playing.
Serenity stood at the side as they played, occasionally glancing at his cards or him.
He took off his suit jacket in the private room and revealed a clean white shirt underneath. His sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, revealing his strong forearms.
The player from the upper hand played a two. When she saw Gabriel take out six cards from his own hand, she hurriedly shouted, “No, don’t!”
Because she was in a hurry, she raised her voice slightly, attracting everyone’s attention.
Gabriel’s eyebrows furrowed as he turned to look at her. She was so frightened she immediately shut her mouth and blushed.
Joseph Lopez was sitting opposite Gabriel. When he saw Serenity’s embarrassed face turning red, he teasingly said, “Look at how scared you are.”
She had just attended his twin’s celebration with Gabriel yesterday so of course Serenity still remembered him. She gave him a grateful and friendly smile.
Joseph nodded at her and said, “Miss Serenity, you are completely worried for nothing. If one day you see him lose at cards, there is a high chance that he was just going easy.”
Serenity was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to hide in. She smiled and gently tugged at his sleeve, muttering softly, “Sorry..”
