嗯~教官你好硬~不要了

Serenity had already mentally prepared herself to go to court. But this matter had surprisingly resolved so easily. After leaving the police station, she thanked Xeno and Michael again and again.

Xeno raised his chin in a certain direction and said, “If there’s anyone to thank, it should be him.”

Serenity turned around and followed his line of sight to see a familiar car parked in a hidden spot across the road. She had thought Caleb was the only one who came tonight with Xeno. So she was surprised to see ‘him’ here as well.

Michael drove over and wound down his window. “Miss Serenity, where do you live? Do you need me to give you a ride?”

The corners of Serenity’s lips slowly curled up as she smiled and said, “No, thanks.”

Michael didn’t ask further and turned to Xeno to exchange a few pleasantries before driving away.

Gabriel was looking across the road through the car window of his Maybach, his gaze fixated on Serenity. She was wearing Caleb’s coat, making her thin body look even more petite.

When he heard Caleb say that she had been in a car accident and was brought to the police station, his first reaction was to get Caleb to contact Xeno. It was only when Xeno got into the car that Gabriel realized he had overreacted.

So when they arrived at the police station, he was tempted to have Caleb turn the car around and leave immediately. However, when he thought of the woman being interrogated at the police station, he let his initial plan continue.

Gabriel watched as Serenity followed Caleb and Xeno to approach the car.

Xeno opened the car door for Serenity, the latter of whom thanked him before getting in, only for her nostrils to be greeted by the faint smell of tobacco.

Gabriel leaned against the back of the chair and massaged the space between his eyebrows. His sleeves had been rolled up along his bent elbows, revealing the exquisite cufflinks of his white shirt.

Serenity hoarsely said, “Thank you for today.”

Gabriel’s deep and handsome eyes looked at her silently. Then, with a rather light tone, he asked, “The other party is President Linde?”

She did not know why he asked this, but she simply hummed a soft response that was almost inaudible because her voice was still quite hoarse.

Caleb took a bottle of mineral water from the car compartment and passed it to her. Serenity was eager to quench her thirst so she immediately unscrewed the bottle cap and drank most of it in one gulp. Her lips had started peeling slightly so the touch of moisture provided quite a relief.

Xeno was sitting in the front passenger seat, observing their interaction but it was hard to tell from President Jones’s lukewarm attitude if Serenity was important to this usually stoic man or not.

Although she did not get into a lawsuit today, she had completely offended President Linde. Distraught, Serenity leaned against the seat weakly.

Gabriel looked ahead, but his words were directed at Serenity, “Do you want to go to the hospital?”

Serenity was taken aback. “No, it’s OK.”

Before she came out of the police station, she had already washed the blood off her forehead in the bathroom so she did not look as disheveled as before. Other than the bruising on her forehead, she was not injured anywhere else.

Caleb started the journey until they passed a pharmacy when Gabriel shouted for the car to stop.

Caught off guard by the sudden instructions, Caleb slammed on the brakes and the wheels made a sharp screech as they rubbed against the ground.

Gabriel leaned forward instinctively and supported himself on the back of the front passenger seat to stabilize his body. His other hand was placed across Serenity’s chest.

Serenity subconsciously closed her eyes when her body bumped forward. Fortunately, Gabriel caught her in time. Otherwise, she would have knocked into the back of the chair in front of her and reopen the wound on her forehead..
