Serenity turned sideways and looked at the man who was driving quietly. She carefully asked, âAre you angry?â
Gabriel looked at her in confusion. Seeing the fear on her face, he understood what she meant.
He reached out and patted her head. âNo, I was on a call.â
Serenity was a smart person, so she did not ask who was the one who made him unhappy. Just as she was letting her imagination run wild, Gabriel suddenly said, âThe people who can make me angry are people with a certain amount of weight. Julian Hall is just an insignificant person.â
She smiled and casually asked, âThen the person who called you and made you feel bad must be someone with some weight, right?â
Gabriel looked at her from the corner of his eyes with his dark pupils. His well-defined fingers gently tapped on the steering wheel rhythmically.
âSerene, youâre my wife,â said he calmly. âIf you have anything to say, you can ask me. I donât like this kind of distrust.â
Serenityâs expression froze slightly, but she quickly concealed it. A sense of embarrassment welled up in her heart as if she had been seen through.
She was indeed testing him on purpose, but she didnât expect him to see through her at a glance.
She looked away guiltily and tried to think of an excuse.
Gabrielâs deep and clear voice rang in her ears âIt was my mother.â
Serenity turned her head to look at him.
Coincidentally, they arrived at the intersection. The red light ahead was on and the car stopped. Gabriel turned to look at her with a deep and reserved gaze. âSo you donât have to worry.â
Serenity narrowed her eyes and lightly said, âWhat do 1 have to worry about?â
Gabriel looked at her calmly. After a moment, he looked away and refocused his attention on the road ahead. He calmly said, âI have had many women in the past, but you will be the only one now and forever.â
Serenity looked at him in a daze. Although his tone was very calm, his gaze was straight ahead, and there was no emotion on his warm face, she could hear the seriousness in his voice. It also sounded like a promise.
She smiled faintly. âItâs my fault that the position of Mrs. Jones is so well sought-after. Thatâs why Iâm worried about my gains and losses.â
Gabriel did not say anything else. The green light in front of him lit up and he started the engine.
It was only 9:30 p.m. when they, reached home. Mrs. Winstead took the things from Gabrielâs hands. âYoung Master, Young Madam, have you eaten?â
Gabriel took off his suit jacket and Serenity naturally took it. She hung it on the hanger at the entrance and turned around to say to Mrs. Winstead with a smile, âWeâve eaten outside. You can go ahead with your work. Donât worry about us.â
Serenity sat down on the sofa and turned on the television. Mrs. Winstead cut some fruits and placed them on the coffee table. Gabriel sat with her for a while before going upstairs.
After watching two episodes of the TV series, she yawned lazily. Mrs. Winstead made some milk for her.
âYoung Madam, itâs getting late. You should sleep after drinking milk.â
The temperature of the milk was just right so Serenity took it and drank it in one go. Mrs. Winstead took the empty cup and reminded her that pregnant women should have a regular schedule and go to bed early at night. Serenity thanked her and went back to the room.
The bedroom light was on when she pushed the door open. The newly bought curtains had been changed to fresh and elegant colors. The monotonous bedroom suddenly had a lively atmosphere.
Gabriel came out of the bathroom with water droplets still dripping from the ends of his hair. When he saw her standing at the bedroom door in a daze, he urged her to hurry up. âTime for bed. From now on, youâll go to bed at 10:30 p.m. sharp every night.â
He was about to go downstairs to call her, but thankfully she came up in time..
