嗯~教官你好硬~不要了

Without waiting for him to finish, Gabriel coldly said, “Don’t tell me there will be a next time.”

After he finished speaking, he pulled Serenity towards his car, opened the door, and shoved her in. He walked around the front of the car and sat in the driver’s seat. With a glance at her pale face, he said, “Seat belt.”

Serenity immediately came to her senses and fastened her seatbelt mechanically. “How did you…”

Gabriel started the engine, fixing his gaze on the road ahead. With a hint of suppressed anger in his usually warm voice. “Where was he taking you?”

What happened earlier on the road was extremely dangerous. The fear still lingered in Serenity’s heart but her heartbeat had managed to slow down a little. “I’m just… I just overheard their conversation. He probably wanted to shut me up.”

Gabriel did not continue asking as if he was not interested in the ‘conversation’ she was talking about.

Serenity could not figure out why he was angry. After a while, she felt the cold aura on his body ease up. “Don’t you have a gathering after work?” asked Serenity carefully.

When she sent the documents to the president’s office in the afternoon, he was on the phone and she heard him say, “Okay, see you at Golden Sands tonight.”

Gabriel did have a gathering. Joseph Lopez was going to bring his wife and children back to Jonan City tomorrow, so Gabriel wanted to hold a farewell party for his friend tonight.

Gabriel had won a calligraphy painting by Bill Hudson at an auction previously. Joseph Lopez wanted to bring it back as a gift to his old man, so Gabriel was going home to get the calligraphy painting. When he came out of the parking lot, he saw Simon forcing her into the car.

While waiting for the traffic light, he calmly said, “Do you have anything to do after you get home?”

Although she didn’t understand why he asked that, she still shook her head honestly. “No.”

After passing the traffic light, he turned the steering wheel to the left at the intersection ahead. Serenity was surprised and asked, “This is not the way home.”

Gabriel pursed his thin lips and turned a deaf ear to her words, focusing on driving while looking ahead.

“President Jones, please drop me off at the intersection ahead. 1’11 take a cab back myself,” said Serenity after some deliberation.

Just then, Gabriel’s phone rang. He held the steering wheel with one hand and took out his phone with his right hand. “I was delayed on the way, so I’ll be there soon.”

Serenity thought that it was probably a call from the gathering to ask his whereabouts. But she was grateful Gabriel found her. Otherwise, she did not want to imagine what Simon would have done to her.

After hanging up, Gabriel glanced at her. “Joseph Lopez will return to Jonan City tomorrow.”

Serenity was slightly surprised and confused at his words. “Oh.” She turned to look at him and was greeted by his side profile. She wanted to say something but hesitated a few times. In the end, she silently leaned back in her chair and looked at the street lamp outside the windshield.

After a while, she looked out of the car window. “This is not the way to Golden Sands.”

“I need to go home to get my stuff first, then I’ll go to Palene Hotel before heading to Golden Sands,” said Gabriel, which was one of the rare moments he ever gave her a proper explanation.

When they arrived at South Bay, Gabriel unbuckled his seatbelt and got out of the car while Serenity waited in her seat. A few minutes later, he came out of the villa with a painting in his hand.

After getting into the car, he placed the calligraphy painting in the back seat and drove to Palene Hotel.

When they arrived at the restaurant, the waiter saw Gabriel coming over and hurriedly wanted to inform the lobby manager. But before the lobby manager arrived, Gabriel said, “Black Plum Pavilion.”

The young waiter was smart enough to immediately understand what Gabriel meant as he led the couple to the private room..
