Chapter 236: Don’t Do AnythingTranslator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

On the day of Serenity and Calvin’s engagement, the weather was clear and the breeze blew under the warm sun. Theengagement banquet was held at a manor-style hotel under the Gilbert Group’s name.

In the waiting room upstairs, Serenity was wearing a pure white wedding dress. Her black hair was tied up with a crystal hair clipwhile an expensive necklace hung from her fair neck, making her collarbone look even more elegant.

Selena had been accompanying her the whole time. When she noticed how absent-minded her sister looked, she thoughtSerenity was simply nervous, so the former decided to comfort the latter. “The engagement is just a red carpet walk with him anda toast to the guests. The procedure is not complicated, so don’t be nervous.”

Serenity nodded and took a sip of water from the cup on the table to ease the restlessness in her heart.A hotel staff member walked in and said, “Mrs. Grant, President Grant is looking for you.”Selena nodded and looked at Serenity. “I'll be back soon.”

Serenity nodded in return. Not long after Selena left, the door to the lounge opened again. She looked up to see a handsomeface in the mirror. His indifferent eyes were warm and deep like the night sky, so dark that she could not see the bottom.

She was stunned for a moment, then her red lips curled into a faint smile. “President Jones, you must be lost. This is my privatelounge.”

Gabriel slowly walked behind her and she felt a strong and cold aura coming from behind her. Serenity wanted to get up, butGabriel placed his hands on her shoulder, pressing her body down.

Serenity’s entire body stiffened as her eyes met his in the mirror. His eyes were unreadable as he said, “You look very beautifultoday.”

The skin under his fingers was soft and smooth and he could not help but gently caress it. His rough fingertips made her shiverand her body subconsciously tensed up.

Seeing how nervous she was, Gabriel's thin lips curled into a faint smile. He bent down and kissed her ear. “Have you forgottenwhat | told you?”

The breath from his nose and lips seeped into her skin. Just like his domineering and cold personality, it felt as if his breathwanted to invade her internal organs.

She waved his hand away, stood up, and turned around to look at him with an elegant smile on her face. “President Jones, thankyou very much for coming to my engagement party today. If my fiance sees you here alone with me, he’ll be unhappy.”

Gabriel lowered his eyes, looking reserved. “Calvin Gilbert will be unhappy later. Not only him, even Zachary Gilbert will beunhappy too.”

Serenity’s eyebrows raised in response as she turned around to look at him. Her temples were already throbbing. “What do youmean?”

“Don't be so nervous. No one will come to catch you.” Gabriel lifted his well-defined fingers and lightly touched her eyebrows.She had put on makeup today and her eyebrows were curved like willows, making her look delicate and pretty.

It was said that a woman in a wedding dress was the most beautiful. It was true for Serenity, she was so beautiful that he wantedto take her for himself.

He lowered his head and sniffed the top of her hair. She had used perfume today and the faint fragrance entered his heart andlungs with his breath. His gloomy mood seemed to have improved a lot.

Serenity instinctively took a step back and her clear, watery eyes carried a hint of panic as she stared at him warily. “PresidentJones, those who came today are all reputable people, and there are even reporters who snuck in. Please don’t do anythingrash..”
