    Every time she picked up the ball for him, he would say “thank you” with his face devoid of expression as his tone of voice


    remained polite and indifferent. However, he did not sound apologetic at all.


    Before she could even catch her breath, Gabriel swung his golf club again.


    However, not only did the ball not enter the hole, but it also rolled farther than before.


    By the time she picked up her fifteenth ball, she was already so tired that she could not breathe properly.


    She heard the people who came with Gabriel say, “President Jones, your form doesn’t seem very good today.”


    Gabriel took the bottle of water that Caleb passed to him. He opened the bottle and took a gulp before saying with his tone filled


    with indifference, “My hand slipped.”


    Benjamin and the others went to the rest area to take a breather after ying for a while, but Gabriel did not seem to be bored


    from ying.


    The way he swung his golf club looked very smooth and skillful. He even looked very cool and elegant when he did it, but the


    golf ball never entered the hole.


    Serenity looked at the ball, which flew away, yet she did not obediently pick it up as she did in the previous times.


    She sat on the field as she did not care about her image anymore. She wiped the sweat on her forehead and lowered her head


    to massage her sore legs.N?velDrama.Org owns this text.


    “How did | offend you?”


    She would not be so dumb as to think that his golfing skills were really that bad or even worse than her golfing skills.


    Gabriel looked at her troubled face with a cold gaze. “Do you feel very unhappy? Your sacrifice is not even enough to pay back


    my Camdcll Resort contract.”


    She raised her head to look at him with a dazed look. “What do you mean by the resort?”


    Gabriel condescendingly looked at her. Her face was flushed red while her bangs stuck to her face due to her sweat, making her


    look a little pathetic. However, her bright ck eyes still shone as pure and clear as ever.


    He asked, “Your dad did not tell you?”


    “What is he supposed to tell me?” She grew more confused as time passed by.


    He red at her with a judging gaze and, upon seeing that she really did not know a thing, he said, “He wanted to sign the


    Camdell Resort contract with me, but | have already rejected him. However, it seems that he did not n to give up. So then,


    aren''t you here to please me?”


    Serenity suddenly became speechless as she really did not know about this matter.


    Although she was part of the Rivers family, she was not very aware of Rivers Group’s business matters.


    She was afraid that Gabriel would misunderstand and immediately tried to clear the misunderstanding. “I did not tell anyone


    about our rtionship.”


    Gabriel side-eyed her, and he could see the sincerity and calmness in her ck eyes. Under the bright sun, her pure and clean


    little face looked as fair as snow.


    She was wearing a red and ck colored sportswear, and her smooth ck hair was tied up into a ponytail. Her angled bangs


    expose her delicate eyebrows while her eyes looked very big and lively. It looked as beautiful and ethereal as those ck


    agates.


    He retracted his gaze and passed his golf club to the helper beside him. He took the towel given by Caleb to wipe his sweat


    before lifting his foot to leave.


    Upon seeing that he did not say a word, Serenity stood up to stop him without even caring about the soreness in her legs


    anymore. “Please believe me.”


    The tip of their shoes touched as they stood very close to each other.


    As she was wearing ts, her head could reach his chin and, hence, the first thing that entered her line of sight was his sexy


    Adam’s apple, causing her to instinctively swallow her saliva.


    Gabriel slightly furrowed his eyebrows and looked past her head to take a look at the resting area. Benjamin and the others were


    looking toward their direction.


    He took a step back to widen the distance between them before lowering his eyes to give her a cold look.


    “Your behavior makes it hard for me to believe that you were unaware of this matter or you had nothing to do with it.”


    Her expression slightly changed. Without turning her head, she knew that Benjamin must be staring at Gabriel and her right now.


    Just now, she only wanted to exin things to Gabriel. As such, she did not manage to control their distance as she was ina


    flurry, causing both of them to stand so close to each other..
