Chapter 81: Didn’t Force HerTranslator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Serenity’s alcohol tolerance used to be quite poor. But her experience in California of drinking from time to time had increasedher alcohol tolerance.

Even so, she was no match for a group of people who often socialized while drinking. It was only halfway through the meal butshe was already drunk.

John Grant had been silent the entire time as he watched the others toast with Gabriel and Serenity drink on his behalf.

He frowned slightly as anger welled up from within him. How could she simply accept all those toasts? But alas, he could onlysuppress his emotions.

Serenity’s fair and delicate cheeks had turned rosy while her eyes had turned watery, making her look rather charming under thelighting.

She was working at a magazine agency. So why did she go to Zephyr?

Even if Gabriel was her superior, she could still refuse to drink on behalf of him. Gabriel was a man, so he would not becalculative with a woman.

Why was she so patient?

Serenity felt her stomach churn so she put down her wine glass and apologized as she covered her mouth and rushed out of theprivate room. She quickly found the washroom and threw up into the sink.

After she finished vomiting and washed her face, she turned around and saw John Grant standing at the door of the bathroom.She was slightly stunned but before she could speak, John said, “When did you join Zephyr?”

“Today,” said she without hiding anything.

John frowned again. No one knew what he was thinking about but he said,

“Don't drink so much alcohol. It’s not good for your health.”

“It's for work,” said she calmly.

John was annoyed by how nonchalant she was about this. He coldly said, “Gabriel is a man. If you stood your ground, he won'tmake things difficult for you.”

“He’s my boss now.” The meaning behind his words was very clear. She could not refuse what he asked her to do.

Moreover, today was her first day at work. If she angered Gabriel, he only needed to say a word and she would be kicked out ofZephyr. If that happened, Benjamin would definitely not let her off easily.

Back in the private room, Gabriel was still discussing the project with the others. He was wearing a sapphire blue shirt, and hisgray-striped tie had been pulled loosely. His cold and handsome face was firm and determined.

Upon hearing the sound of the door opening, Gabriel turned around to look at her. His gaze was deep and calm, but he retractedhis gaze in an instant.

After the meal ended, Serenity and Gabriel were about to leave when John stepped forward. “President Jones, Serenity is drunk.I'll send her back.”

Gabriel held his suit jacket with one hand and looked at Serenity who was standing unsteadily. Before he could speak, Serenitysaid, “1 don’t need you to send me off.”

With that, she staggered down the steps. Caleb drove over at the right time so she opened the door and got in.

John watched her get in the car with a frown. He knew that she did not like him now, so he could only turn to Gabriel and say,“Please arrange for someone to send her home.”

After a pause, he continued to say, “Serenity may be your assistant, but she’s still a girl. Please don’t let her drink next time.”Apleasant smile appeared on Gabriel's lips as he calmly said, “1 didn’t force her.”

Serenity had closed her eyes to rest as she sat in the car. She felt a little light-headed. Caleb glanced at her from the rearviewmirror and handed her a bottle of water. She took it and thanked him.

As she took a sip, the car door on the left opened and Gabriel got in.

Gabriel glanced at her slightly red cheeks and indifferently said, “It seems that Benjamin is truly at his wit's end..”
