She was young to begin with but she was so thin that she looked like a skeleton. Her strict work clothes and old-fashioned hairdid not suit her well. She looked more beautiful and delicate in casual clothes, like a scenery in spring.

When Serenity drank the second mouthful of water, she felt warmth flowing down her lower abdomen. She counted the days inher heart and patted her head in frustration.

Gabriel looked at her actions and stared at her pale face with his deep eyes. “What’s wrong?”

She twisted the bottle cap back onto her drink and placed her hand on the balcony. With an unnatural expression, she said, “I’mgoing to the supermarket.”

Gabriel grabbed her wrist and frowned slightly. “What happened?”

Her fair little face had turned so red that it was about to drip blood. She stammered as she said, “I’m going to buy some dailynecessities.”

Gabriel noticed that she was replaceing it difficult to speak up so, with his warm and calm deep voice, he said, “1’11 go with you. |want to buy cigarettes.”

How could she let him come along when she needed to buy those kinds of things? With a smile on her face, she said, “PresidentJones, what brand of cigarettes do you usually smoke? I'll buy them for you while I’m at it. You don’t have to make this trip.”

Gabriel looked at her coldly from the corner of his eyes. “I want to take a walk while I’m at it.”

Serenity was at a loss for words. Just as she was hesitating to replace an excuse, Gabriel had already entered the room, put on hissuit jacket, and picked up his phone and room card from the table. He turned around and saw that she was standing still. “Stillnot leaving?”

She followed him slowly and waited for the elevator with him. Looking at the red numbers that were slowly rising, she licked herlips and said, “President Jones, | suddenly remembered that | have everything in my room. So there’s no need to buy anything.”

Gabriel found it hard to believe her words, but he merely glanced at her coldly before continuing to wait for the elevator.

When the elevator reached the top floor, it opened with a ‘ding’. Gabriel strode in with his long legs but she stood outside withoutmoving, her hands twisting helplessly.

Gabriel turned around and placed one hand in his pocket. “I’m going to buy cigarettes. Come with me.”

Serenity hesitated and the elevator door was about to close. Gabriel pressed the button to open the door. “Hurry up and come

in.She listened and Gabriel pressed the button to close the door and they descended.The hotel they were staying at was the most luxurious hotel in Jonan City, so there were many guests. The presidential suite was

on the top floor, so when they entered the elevator, it was empty. However, it would stop at every floor and someone would comein.

Guests kept coming in, pushing Serenity to a corner. She was wearing flats after showering, so she was almost invisible in thecrowd.

Gabriel moved in front of her without batting an eyelid and helped her block the crowd that was constantly pushing her. He wastall and sturdy so he stood in front of her like a towering mountain.

She looked at the stalwart back before her and her heart skipped a beat. She raised her hand and unconsciously brushed itacross his broad back.

Through his clothes, Gabriel could feel her fingertips sliding down his back as she wrote a few words. His lips curled up slightly,reaching his eyes as his cold face became gentler..
