There was a knock on the door and Gabriel allowed the person in. Serenity pushed the door open and entered with two cups of coffee.
She glanced at the three. Other than Gabriel, the other two didn’t look too good.
Sulia’s expression was ugly and Linda’s eyes were red against her pale face as if she had suffered a huge blow.
Serenity walked over and quietly placed the coffee on the glass round table beside the sofa. She wanted to greet Sulia, but under such circumstances, she couldn’t bring herself to no matter what.
Just as she was about to leave, Sulia called out to her. “Ms. Serenity, bring Linda to the reception room. I have something to discuss with President Jones.”
The way Sulia called her ‘Ms. Serenity’ was stiff and distant, indirectly meaning that she did not acknowledge her as her daughter-in-law.
And when she addressed Gabriel as ‘President Jones’, Sulia was deliberately trying to emphasize the professional relationship between Serenity and Gabriel.
Linda tightened her grip on the strap of her bag and looked at Sulia before following Serenity out of the office.
Serenity led Linda to the reception room and poured her some water. “I’m not done with my work yet so 1 will be returning to my desk now. You may rest here for a while.”
Linda bit her lip as she looked at Serenity. “President Jones has a wife now. Is that person you?”
Serenity stopped in her tracks and met Linda’s questioning gaze. With calmness in her heart, she said, “Yes.”
Linda’s face instantly contorted as a fierce hatred grew in her eyes only to be masked by the curtain of eyelashes as she looked down.
Serenity watched Linda’s expression carefully.
Linda remained silent so Serenity took that as her cue to leave. When she returned to her seat, Serenity was no longer in the mood to work. She looked at the closed door of the president’s office and felt a little restless.
Meanwhile, in the president’s office, Sulia said, “If you don’t like Linda, I won’t force you. But you don’t have to marry any random woman just to piss me off.” Gabriel picked up the cup of coffee beside him and took a sip. Then, he coldly yet unhurriedly said, “I decided to marry Serenity after careful consideration.” “What if your dad and I don’t agree?” Sulia’s expression turned ugly.
The man’s deep pupils seemed to have been dyed with thick ink like agate. “Then shall I take it that you won’t care about your grandchild anymore?”
“You mean…” Sulia looked at him in shock.
Gabriel leaned against the back of the chair lazily. “If there’s nothing else, you can go back now.”
Sulia took a few steps forward, her eyes were filled with surprise and excitement. “Is what you just said true?”
“You don’t even plan to let her enter the Jones family. Why are you concerned about this?” His lips curled up teasingly.
Sulia couldn’t be bothered to argue with him. She just wanted to know the truth of what he had just said. “Child, I’m asking you a question. Is it true?”
“Yes,” said Gabriel frankly.
But then, Sulia’s excitement disappeared as quickly as it appeared because there was still the issue of the grandchild’s mother…
Sulia needed to think about this entire situation properly. Not just anyone could enter the Jones family.
Besides, she still had to discuss this matter with Keith. She did not dare to tell him about their son’s marriage. With his temper, Keith would definitely reprimand him..
