    Chapter 152: Bringing Her to the Banquet


    Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion


    Serenity finally came out of the fitting room. Gabriel caught a glimpse of theke-green dress from the corner of his eye and


    looked up at her. His calm eyes started to waver.


    The dress was an off-shoulder dress with its hem cut short in the front, revealing Serenity’s knees, while the back part reached


    her delicate ankles. The color of the dressplemented her fair skin well, especially when the light reflected off her shoulders


    and corbone.


    Her ponytail had been let down, leaving her seaweed-like hair trailing lustrously down her back. She was truly a charming sight


    for sore eyes.


    Gabriel narrowed his eyes slightly, put down the magazine in his hand, and stood up. “Not bad, we''ll take it.”


    As he spoke, he had already pulled his card out of his wallet. When the saleswoman noticed it was a ck card, her eyes


    widened as she received it with a smile. She swiped it through the card terminal, not needing any verification of identity from


    Gabriel.


    Once the transaction wasplete, the saleswoman carefully returned the card to Gabriel. “Sir, our new collection was just


    released today. Would you like to take a look at them? They''re the best designs in fashion now.”


    But Gabriel turned a deaf ear to her words as he ced his card back into his wallet. He looked at Serenity and said, “Let’s go.”


    Without waiting for her reply, he immediately walked out of the store. Serenity followed behind him and though they were a little


    out of sync, the pairing of their backs looked very harmonious.


    As soon as the two of them walked out of the mall, they heard the saleswoman excitedly say, “I remember now! I’ve seen him on


    IV. He’s the president of Zephyr Group...”


    “You''re right! I’ve seen him on TV before too.”


    But it was a little toote for them to be excited now since if they had recognized him earlier, they could have observed him


    better then.


    The lights were bright in the banquet hall of Grand Gold Restaurant as guests filled almost every inch of the space — it was a


    business banquet.


    As she stood outside the establishment, Serenity felt a little confused. She was not expecting to be brought to a business


    banquet when Gabriel said that he was taking her out. “President Jones, I’m still on leave today, so Caleb will follow you in.”


    Gabriel grabbed a suit jacket and raised his elbow for her to take his arm. “Let’s go in.”


    She thought he had brought her here as his assistant, but judging from his current behavior, it didn’t seem to be the case.


    Still, it was rare for him to bring a femalepanion to such events. What was he up to this time?


    Gabriel gave her a side nce, confused. With his deep voice, he said, “If we don’t go in now, we''ll bete.”


    Her shock and confusion turned into disbelief as she asked, “Do you really n to...You want me to walk in with you as your


    femalepanion?”


    Gabriel’s arm had been raised the whole time, expecting her to respond. Her hesitation made him frown. “What''s so weird about


    this?”


    She hesitated for a moment, then held his arm and followed him into the banquet hall.


    Gabriel had always been an eye-catching figure — no matter where he went, he never failed to attract attention. And this time,


    more eyes were on him as he did not walk in alone.


    Selena was holding John’s arm while a ss of champagne was in each of their free hands. They were chatting with the boss of


    a certainpany when they noticed amotion at the entrance of the banquet hall. The two turned to look along with the rest


    and saw Serenity and Gabriel entering together. Selena and John were shocked.RêAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only


    President Wilbur was the host of this banquet and also noticed themotion. When he saw that Gabriel had arrived, he


    immediately approached his guest. Surprised to see Gabriel with a femalepanion, President Wilbur said, “Oh my, President


    Jones, it seems the sun rose from the west today..”
