Chapter 101: One Person Is Missing TodayTranslator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

July in Andalas meant scorching heat. The cicadas chirped on the branches under the shade of the trees at the Riversresidence. Serenity Rivers woke up to the music of the cicadas.

Fortunately, Benjamin Rivers had left for the company. Otherwise, she would not know how to answer him if he asked her whyshe was not at work.

But he had been pretty amiable to her recently. Was it perhaps because she had helped him with the Haverford Corporation’sland bidding?

After breakfast, she was about to replace something to do to kill time when Frank called.

She was a little surprised. Was he calling her in to formalize her resignation?

When the call connected, Frank said, “Miss Serenity, why didn’t you come to work today?”

She was confused. Didn’t Gabriel tell her to leave Zephyr?

Did Frank not know about this?

That was impossible.

If Caleb was given the authority to deliver such news to her, Frank should have known about it as well.Determined to replace out what was going on, Serenity dialed Gabriel's number.

At the President's office of Zephyr Group, Caleb was passing a few documents that needed Gabriel's signature. Gabriel quicklyscanned through them, making annotations and comments on some of the documents.

His cell phone on the table rang and he glanced at the screen before looking away to continue going through the documents.

Since Caleb was standing at the desk, waiting for Gabriel to finish reviewing the documents, all he needed to do was stretch hishead slightly forward to see the name on the screen.

When he saw Serenity’s name, he was not surprised. He had been expecting it.Earlier, Gabriel had made a comment about someone being missing from the secretary’s office when Frank brought the coffee in.

Since Caleb had informed Serenity that she had been fired, they already had someone pack up her stuff which was on her desk,ready to be taken away.

Being absent from work was not new as it was normal for people to take leave for personal matters, even among those whoworked in the secretary's office. But President Jones had never made any comments about their absence before. Serenity Riverswas the only person not present at the office today so it was obvious he was referring to her. But what was the intention behindhis question?

Caleb was slightly shocked. When had President Jones cared about someone not coming to work? And why today of all days?But since Frank and Caleb had been by his side for many years, they knew better than to question him.

“Maybe Miss Serenity is not feeling well. I’ll make a call and ask.” That was how Frank had responded to Gabriel earlier.

When they took a peek at Gabriel's expression, he remained indifferent while browsing through the information on his computer.Although he didn’t give any further instructions, Gabriel didn’t reprimand Frank for being a busybody either. It was true, Gabrielwas asking about Serenity.

Right now, Gabriel's phone was still ringing.

It rang three times in a row before the phone returned to silence.

Caleb wondered if Serenity had given up.

She was willing to follow him all the way to the clubhouse yesterday just to convince Gabriel to let her stay at Zephyr. Had shelost her determination in less than twenty-four hours?

Just as he was thinking this, his phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was Serenity Rivers.He looked at Gabriel and saw that he was still indifferent. So, he picked up the call. “Miss Serenity.”

She had called to ask for the reason for Frank’s call. As Gabriel's right-hand man, Caleb was no stranger to knowing how to dealwith people professionally.

He said, “Miss Serenity, the secretariat is just short of people. The newly recruited people are not as good as the experiencedones, so you can come back and continue to work..”
