Serenity also knew that she had been in a very dangerous situation tonight. Fortunately, Gabriel appeared in time. “Thank you.”

Gabriel swiped over the screen of his phone to unlock it and indifferently said, “A verbal ‘thank you’ is too insincere. It’s best to walk the talk.”

She didn’t know if she was reading a little too much into it, but she felt that his words had a deeper meaning. Then, her face heated up.

Caleb acted as if he did not hear anything, trying to keep his focus on driving.

She hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said to Caleb, “Caleb, go to the hotel.”

After arriving, Serenity was about to go into the bathroom to take a shower when Gabriel said with a faint smile, “Why are you so impatient?”

She was speechless and her cheeks flushed red. Did she misunderstand what he meant?

Gabriel looked at how embarrassed she looked and his mood improved as his lips curved into a faint smile.

lie turned to look at the night sky outside the window and his smile faded while his eyes darkened.

Serenity watched him from his side profile quietly, feeling a little puzzled.

He seemed a little different tonight, but she couldn’t tell exactly what or why.

The phone in the room rang. It must be the hotel’s front desk, so she walked over to the phone to pick up the call. The caller hung up after a few simple words.

She put the receiver down and thought for a moment. Then, she went out of the room and called the hotel staff for clarification.

When she returned to her room, Gabriel was still in the same position and posture as before, staring out the window at the night sky, then the traffic and neon lights down below.

She approached him and leaned against the window with a smile. “It’s rare for President Jones to call me here tonight just to admire the night view and not get in bed.”

Gabriel turned around when he heard her voice and looked at her blankly. It was obvious that he did not hear what she said earlier.

She shrugged nonchalantly and walked over to open a bottle of red wine. After pouring two glasses, she walked back to the window and passed one to Gabriel.

“Let’s toast to such a beautiful night.”

Gabriel took it and swirled the wine in the glass lightly. By now, he had returned to his usual state as he looked at her.

“This is a terrible reason to toast.”

“I’ll give you a better one later.”

After saying that, she took a sip of the wine glass. The lingering layer of wine on her lips made them look more polished, emitting an alluring luster under the crystal lamp.

An hour later, someone knocked on the door. Serenity went to open the door and saw the hotel staff standing outside.

“Miss Rivers, everything is ready,” said the waiter.

She thanked him. After the waiter left, she turned back to look at Gabriel and winked at him with a mysterious smile.

“It seems that there is a surprise on the rooftop.”

The playfulness emanating from her clear and black eyes made them look more like diamonds, especially when combined with the room’s lighting. She was looking particularly charming at this moment, and Gabriel had been bewitched.

Just as he was about to get lost in his thoughts, Serenity took his arm and brought him to the rooftop.

In the middle of the rooftop was a candlelight dinner prepared by the staff of the hotel. The flames of the candles danced as they burned against a background of the cool night sky and twinkling stars.

Gabriel looked at the Western food on the table and frowned. “You haven’t had dinner?”

Serenity pushed him to sit down before taking her seat across from him. She did not answer him and instead said, “Do you still remember the meal you owed me last time? 1 just thought tonight is the perfect time for you to make it up to me..”
