Chapter 238: A Turbulent Engagement
Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Zachary’s eyes widened when he heard Calvin Gilbert’s words. He looked at John with a deep gaze and recalled what the driver had said to him two days ago.
Calvin Gilbert had always been picked up by the Gilbert family’s chauffeur. Once when he had gone to pick up Calvin from school, the driver said that he had seen Serenity and John being very close as if they were in a relationship.
At that time, Serenity was sixteen and John was eighteen. To adults, it was puppy love.
Zachary did not think too much about it then, but now that he heard Calvin’s words, it must have been true.
John pursed his lips and didn’t say anything. After a while, he said, “I’ll go with you.”
It was about time for the ceremony to start but Selena noticed that there were still no signs of Calvin making his way over. She was about to go downstairs to see what was going on. But instead, Benjamin Rivers pushed the door open and entered. His expression was very ugly. “Today’s engagement ceremony has been cancelled.”
Serenity and Selena looked at each other, both confused. Then, Selena asked, “What happened?”
All the guests had arrived and everything was ready. Why did they suddenly cancel it?
Benjamin recounted what had happened in a few words. Then, he sighed heavily. Now that Gilbert Group was in trouble, who was going to come to Rivers Group’s rescue?
When Serenity heard the news, she was stunned in her seat as a chill quickly spread throughout her body.
For such a big incident to happen to Gilbert Group today, could it all be a mere coincidence? Others might think so but Serenity knew better. Someone was pulling the strings behind the scenes.
Gabriel had it all planned out. No wonder he said those words earlier.
After Benjamin left, Selena kept Serenity company. The former noticed that the latter had a lot on her mind and thought that she was worried about Gilbert Group’s situation. Selena patted Serenity’s shoulder lightly and said, “Most of the guests below have dispersed. You can change your clothes.”
Serenity walked into the changing room, not bothering to lift the hem of her wedding dress as she walked. Before she closed the door, she grabbed her phone. Once the door was closed, she quickly scrolled for Gabriel’s number.
Gabriel had already left by the time the commotion started. When he saw Serenity’s name on the incoming call, he was not surprised. He had expected this as he swiped to answer her. His deep and magnetic voice was transmitted into her ears as he asked, “Is there something you need me for?”
She pursed her lips into a straight line before her trembling voice escaped. “Gilbert Group… You did it, didn’t you?”
Gabriel was already in his private elevator at the office when he said, “I had warned you that if you don’t end the engagement with Calvin, I would do it for you.”
She took a deep breath and coldly said, “What do you want?”
But the only response was a dead tone as Gabriel had already hung up. Serenity gripped her phone tightly.
Serenity was taking a little too long in the changing room and Selena was growing suspicious. The latter approached the door and heard Serenity talking to someone. “Serene, who are you talking to?”
“I got a call,” said Serenity, lying.
No longer suspecting anything, Selena was now simply worried that Serenity was having trouble taking off the dress, so she asked, “Do you need my help?”
“No need.” Serenity reached behind her to unzip her clothes and quickly changed.
After coming out of the changing room, Serenity took out her phone and scrolled through the news. In less than two hours, news about Gilbert Group was everywhere.
The negative news affected the company’s stock the most. The reporter even mentioned the extent of the decline in Gilbert Group’s stock, and another chill ran down Serenity’s spine..
