Gabriel indifferently hummed a response and looked away.

Wendy found a flaw in his expression and said, “You know her?”

But Gabriel did not give her a straight answer. “Do you think I would recognize every single person who worked at Zephyr Group?”

Wendy hoped to dig out more information from any emotion she could catch darting around in his eyes, but it was all in vain. “Aren’t you going to go up and say hello?”

His eyes looked relatively warm as the corners of his mouth curled up into a faint smile of mockery. “Don’t you think she’s busy enough?”

A shop assistant came over to hand over a well-wrapped package of clothes Wendy Jones had ordered. Wendy took the package and left the mall with Gabriel.

Serenity happened to look over at the entrance as Gabriel and Wendy left and found their backs slightly familiar. But before she could take a closer look, Jocelyn White’s voice suddenly sounded in her ear.

“Mrs. Grant and Ms. Serenity are socialites. They should be broad-minded and magnanimous. It’s just a dress. There’s no loss for you to pick another, but this dress is very important to me.”

Selena ended up returning to her kind-hearted self, especially after hearing how much it would suit Jocelyn’s image as her character for the new drama. With her heart now wavering, she said, “Serenity, why don’t we…”

Serenity looked down on people like Jocelyn White who was greedy to be with Jacob even though she was already targeting Gabriel. “Even if one is broad-minded, one also has to consider their partner.”

Jocelyn was so angry that her face turned pale. However, she had to swallow her anger when she remembered that they were in public. Although she had put on different makeup today, she was still afraid of being recognized by others.

She pouted and aggrievedly said, “Jacob…”

Jacob looked at her but didn’t say anything. He liked this woman, but that didn’t mean that he could indulge her willful personality all the time. Serenity was right – whoever claimed something first had the right to own it. Since Serenity refused to give up, what could he do? How could he possibly snatch it away from her so forcefully?

After exiting the mall, Selena reversed the car from the temporary parking lot. Just as she was about to get in, Serenity recognized the car in the temporary parking lot next to them – it belonged to Gabriel.

She looked around and saw him and a woman eating at the restaurant opposite the mall. The afternoon sun shone through the French windows on the two of them, making them look pure.

No wonder she found the pair from earlier so familiar. It was Gabriel after all.

But how did he know the wife of the wooden book house’s owner?

Selena stuck her head out of the car window. “Serene, what are you looking at? Hurry up and get in the car.”

At the same time, Wendy was reaching for the water when she looked out the window and saw Serenity looking over. “She’s looking at you.”

Gabriel was cutting steak when he heard Wendy’s words. His hands paused mid-slice as he caught a glimpse of the pretty figure before retracting his gaze without batting an eyelid. He picked up a small piece of steak and put it into his mouth, chewing slowly.

“You two don’t just know each other, do you?” asked Ji Wenqing with a graceful smile.”

Gabriel put down his knife and fork and reached for his drink. His well-defined fingers touched the blue and white porcelain as he casually said in his cold voice, “She’s just someone from the secretariat.”

“Is that so?” Wendy looked at him suspiciously. “I like her. She has clear eyes and a very pure mind.”

Serenity, on the other hand, was still looking at Gabriel and Wendy Jones in confusion. But since Selena was urging her to get in, she obliged and closed the door behind her.

The sisters were about to go out for dinner when Selena received a call from John. In the end, the meal became a four-person meal – the other person was Calvin whom John had been dragged out from a crowd of beauties..
