Chapter 154: Don’t Like Him
Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At the end of the path was a flowerbed. She sat on a bench and looked up at the stars in the night sky. The night breeze blew past and lifted the stray hairs by her ears.
Just as she was lost in her thoughts, a handsome and slender figure entered her sight.
He had the scent of Selena’s perfume on him and his dark eyes stared at her unblinkingly like an abyss.
He stood against the light so it was not easy to make out his facial features.
“Why did you attend the banquet with Gabriel?”
His voice was very calm, making it sound as if he was asking a normal question. However, Serenity was familiar with him and heard a hint of interrogation.
Although she did not understand why Gabriel had brought her here tonight, what right did he have to question her about her private matters now?
A faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth as she responded lightly. “It is just as you saw, I’m his female companion tonight.”
John’s thin lips pursed slightly as if he was a little unhappy with her nonchalant answer. “Do you know how much of a sensation it will cause if you come with him? It will be reported in all the headlines tomorrow!”
“So what?” asked she indifferently.
If Benjamin Rivers found out, wouldn’t that make him quite happy?
Since Gabriel had not clarified his relationship with her, those from his end working with Rivers Group would not dare take advantage of Benjamin Rivers. From the perspective of Rivers Group, this was a good thing.
John’s heart was stung.
“Stay away from him,” said he hoarsely.
“Sorry, I’m afraid 1 can’t.” She worked at Zephyr Group and saw Gabriel every day.
“Serenity!” John’s black pupils constricted as his eyes filled with anger. “Do you have any other relationship with him other than being his subordinate?”
But even as her brother-in-law, he had no right to ask about her private matters even though deep down, she had never acknowledged that the man she had loved for many years as her brother-in-law.
She stood up, reaching only to his chin despite wearing eight-centimeter heels. Serenity looked up at him and asked, “And what ‘other’ relationship could you possibly be referring to? As lovers? Or friends with benefits?”
Although her tone was calm, she still sounded a little harsh.
John’s face turned a little pale. Eventually, the anger that he had deliberately suppressed surged into his heart and his well-defined palm was raised high.
Serenity’s eyes widened at the sight of his reaction and quickly closed her eyes in fear, expecting the slap to land on her face any time now as her body shrunk back a little.
John’s anger had clouded his mind. Just as the slap was about to land on her face, he managed to stop himself in time and his slap turned into a gentle caress on her pretty face.
His deep voice was hoarse and dry as he asked, “Serene, you must be angry at me, right?”
The familiarity with which he suddenly spoke to her took her by surprise as she abruptly opened her eyes and stared at him in a daze.
Serene was her nickname. Only Grandma and John called her that in such a tone.
Now that she heard it again, the past that she had deliberately wanted to forget surged into her heart, reminding her of the little things that had happened between the two of them.
John stared at her pale face, his palms resting on her cheek while his fingers reached the back of her neck. He gently cradled her head and pulled her into his arms. His gentle voice sounded like a loving murmur between lovers.
“Don’t like him, and you can’t like him.”
In a dark corner not far away, Gabriel stared at the two of them with a complicated gaze. His bottomless eyes contained an unimown light..
