The scent of John’s perfume entered her nose and Serenity felt as if she had just woken up from a dream and pushed him away.
Her reaction was so intense that he was caught off guard. He staggered a few steps back. After he steadied himself, he looked at her with a sad gaze. “Serene…”
“Don’t say my name like that!” Her sharp voice was unusually clear under the silent night sky. She glared at him coldly and spat out more harsh and cold words. “You don’t have the right to do so anymore.”
His eyes dimmed and his voice became unusually hoarse, seemingly suppressing something. “1 didn’t think you’d hate me.”
She had loved him for so many years and yet he had the audacity to marry her sister without a word of explanation. The heart-wrenching pain was still vivid in her mind.
The corners of her lips curled into a cold smile and her eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of ice. “Shouldn’t I?”
Her cruel words were like a sharp blade that mercilessly pierced into his heart. It hurt so much that his breathing suddenly stopped. His thin lips moved slightly, but he could not utter a single word of response.
John’s pitch-black eyes were covered with a layer of darkness. His thin lips were as pale as paper and his usually clear voice now held a trace of imperceptible trembling as he finally managed to say, “Remember what I said just now. Don’t like him.”
He could marry her sister, but he didn’t allow her to like anyone else? What kind of twisted logic was this?
“It’s my business who 1 like. It has nothing to do with you,” said Serenity.
John grew angry again. “Serenity Rivers!”
“We are exes and you’re now married to someone else. Yet, you don’t want me to like someone else? Do you want me to be alone for the rest of my life?” She smiled sarcastically, her gaze as bleak as the night. “John, you’re such a selfish jerk.”
John’s heart was once more stabbed. He wanted to say something but in the end, he simply looked at her deeply one last time before retreating silently for the time being.
As she watched him leave, Serenity tried her best to suppress her tears that threatened to burst forth. Eventually, she could no longer hold them in and the icy cold liquid slid down her cheeks.
Gabriel had his hands in his pockets as he looked calmly at the woman who was sobbing on the bench. The dim yellow light from the road shone on her lonely back, making her look as desolate as the night.
It was quiet outside, in stark contrast to the noisy banquet hall so Serenity didn’t hesitate to let loose and cried without restraint as if she wanted to release the grievances and pain that had been suppressed in her heart for many years.
He had never seen Serenity like this before.
Gabriel walked out, his black suit jacket shrouded in a layer of coldness. “If you’re done crying, follow me in.”
Serenity wiped the tears on her face calmly, took a deep breath, and recollected herself, “Why did you leave the hall?”
Gabriel moved to her front and stared at her red eyes. His deep eyes were filled with mockery as he said, “How could 1 have seen such an interesting scene if 1 didn’t come out?”
She looked up at him with eyes that were still red and watery. However, they shone through the night clearly and unwaveringly. “President Jones has quite an interesting fetish to indulge in others’ pain and suffering.”
Gabrile’s eyes remained cold as the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. “No matter how weird my fetishes are, it’s not as interesting as you falling in love with your brother-in-law.”
She glared at him with her dark eyes. “I’ve known him since I was five.”
Her cold eyes accused him of treating her relationship with John as something sacrilegious.
He frowned at how coldly she was glaring at him, but there was no denying her watery eyes and trembling lashes.
“You’ve been out for long enough. Go in..”
