Chapter 73: A Person With Special TreatmentTranslator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

He opened his mouth, about to say something when Serenity pushed the cake closer to him to urge him to blow out the candlesquickly. “Hurry up and make a wish before the candles burn out.”

Gabriel gave it a thought for a moment before he said lightly, “1 don’t have any.”

Then, he lowered his head and blew out the candle in one breath.

Serenity pouted slightly as she placed the cake on the table. How could anyone not have a wish?

If it were her, she would have wished she could turn back time to before she was thirteen years old.

She would have never let John Grant leave Willow Town, and she would have never returned to the Rivers family.Then, the Grant and Rivers families would not have a relationship with each other as they did today.

And John and Serenity could be together for the rest of their lives.

“Serenity.” Gabriel's cool voice sounded a little hoarse as he stared at her with a heavy gaze.

The look he gave her was different from usual. Although it was not gentle or affectionate, it was rather kind, making her heartskip a beat.

The current state of Gabriel was unfamiliar to her as if he was not the person who was rumored to be such a decisive person.

However, Serenity and Gabriel had not spent that much time together besides being bed partners. Perhaps this unfamiliarity wasonly because she did not know him well enough.

The thought relieved her and she smiled. “There’s no need to thank me.”

Gabriel’s eyebrows twitched as a faint smile appeared in his eyes. However, he still said in a low voice, “Thank you.”She smiled. “I should be the one thanking you. If it weren’t for you tonight, | might have been in trouble.”

Then, she pretended to shrug her shoulders casually as she looked at him with eyes as clear and black as jade.

When Gabriel thanked her, she felt a little ashamed. If Caleb had not reminded her, she would not have known that today washis birthday.

Which she also found strange. People with status like Gabriel Jones would usually hold birthday parties or spend it with theirfamilies, but here he was, with her on the rooftop of a hotel.

He didn’t seem particularly happy tonight either. In fact, he seemed a little lonely and sad.But no matter how strange she found it, she was not stupid enough to ask.Everyone had secrets that they could not reveal, such as her and Robin.

Gabriel cut the cake and the two each ate a small piece of it. He did not usually like sweet food and Serenity had already eatendinner twice tonight so they couldn't eat more cake at the moment.

When Serenity caught another glimpse at the moon, a faint smile appeared on her face. “Shall we dance? 1 wonder if PresidentJones is willing to do me the honor?”Gabriel’s usually cold facial features were looking gentler than usual. With a smile on his face, he held her hand and walked to

the center. And thus, the two of them started waltzing.

She was wearing a light blue dress today so, as she danced and twirled, the hem of the dress drew a beautiful arc, making thecouple give off an indescribable beauty.

She smiled faintly. “President Jones, not only did we have a candlelight dinner tonight, but we also had the honor of celebratingyour birthday together. Now, we are dancing. Do you think I’m receiving special treatment from you?”

Gabriel’s deep eyes locked onto hers as his thin lips pursed, refusing to say a word.“| was just joking, don’t take it seriously.”She was talking to Gabriel Jones, for goodness sake. There shouldn’t be anyone who would deserve special treatment from him.

She had only said it unintentionally just now. And the moment she did, she knew she had said something wrong. Fortunately, shehad time to save herself.

It was easy to be moved under this starry night. And the more he looked at her fair face, the more intensely the emotions withinhis heart churned. He lowered his head and covered her slightly cold lips..
