Mrs. Winstead had just taken two steps when she heard her words. She paused and said with her back to her, “If Young Madamwants to know, you can ask Young Master himself.”

Judging from Mrs. Winstead’s reaction, Gabriel did not have a good relationship with Madam Jones. Furthermore, he was aloneon his birthday and did not even return to the Jones family’s main residence.

She was sure that not only Madam Jones, but his relationship with his father was also not harmonious.

She went back to her room to change into her home clothes, brewed some tea, and sent it to the study upstairs. The door of thestudy was closed so she knocked lightly on the door and a man’s deep voice came from inside. “Come in.”

She pushed the door open and entered. Gabriel was busy sitting in front of the computer. She walked over and placed the cup oftea beside his hand. She glanced at the computer and saw that he was handling emails. “You’re so busy even on the weekends.”

Gabriel looked up at her, no longer in the same mood as when they were in the car earlier. His gaze was now gentle. “Do youthink it’s that easy to be the president of Zephyr Group?”

She nodded in agreement. “True.”

Gabriel held her slightly cold hand. “The computer has radiation and it’s not good for the child. Go replace something to do to passthe time.”

There were only three of them in the villa and Mrs. Winstead had gone to the glass greenhouse to trim the flowers. Serenity hadnothing to do. “I'll just stay away from the computer. You do your thing. I'll stay here with you.”

Gabriel compromised. He handled the emails while she found a book and sat by the window to read it. She would occasionallyglance at the man who was working seriously. Such leisure time was not bad. It was quiet and heartwarming.

An hour later, Gabriel was done with his work. When he raised his head, he saw a woman sitting by the window. Her jet-blackhair fell on her chest and covered her face. The autumn sun shone through the glass and on her body, making her fingers thatwere flipping through the book pale and transparent.

Although he had many women in the past, he had never kissed them. Even if he did that, he would cut straight to the pointwithout even foreplay.

She was his first. The sight of her clear eyes bewitched him to kiss her.When he did, he didn’t feel disgusted. Instead, he felt sweet and couldn’t bear to let go.

Looking at the woman who was reading seriously, he thought that she would probably be the one for the rest of his life and wouldnot change.

He picked up the cold tea beside him and took a sip. It was slightly bitter, which made him more clear-headed. Then, heconfirmed his thoughts at this moment.

Perhaps she had felt the man’s burning gaze because Serenity looked up at him. Their gazes met and they looked at each othercalmly and peacefully.

Serenity’s lips curled into a faint smile. The autumn sunlight shone gently through the glass window beside her. She seemed tohave become illusory. The smile on her beautiful face was clean and bright, even more dazzling than the sunlight at this moment.Her fair and slender fingers stroked the edge of the book. “Are you done?”

Gabriel nodded and stood up to walk towards her. Seeing how serious she was reading earlier, he could not help but feelcurious. “What book are you reading?”

She picked up the book and showed him the cover. “I just took a random one.”Gabriel's pupils constricted and his gaze gradually turned deep. “Why is it this book...”

She was holding ‘A Brief History of Time’. Seeing that he was frowning as if he had thought of something unpleasant, she smiledand closed the book. She put the book back in its original position. “It’s almost time for dinner. I’ll go down and see how Mrs.Winstead’s preparations are going..”
