Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When Gabriel was away for a week, Serenity would call him every night. But since Gabriel had always been a man of few words, Serenity ended up being the one speaking most of the time while he listened quietly. After she finished speaking, he would simply hum a soft reply.
But It was a wonderful feeling. The two of them did not love each other, yet the way they got along and kept in touch made them feel at ease.
Serenity was standing in front of the window, looking at the twinkling stars outside. The night wind blew at the curtains, making them flutter.
She fiddled with the calla lilies on the windowsill with one hand and placed her phone by her ear with her right hand. She was in a good mood. “The moonlight tonight is very good. Did you see it?”
Gabriel, who was on the other end of the phone, was silent for a moment “It’s daytime in the United States.”
That was when she remembered the time difference between Cador and abroad. She gently smacked her forehead and softly said, “Ah!

“I forgot. Am 1 disturbing you at work?”
The person on the other end laughed lightly. His voice was clear and mellow. “There’s a video conference later.”
“When are you coming back?” asked she, and immediately realized she had crossed the line so she quickly added, “I miss you.”
“The day after tomorrow,” said Gabriel rather warmly.
“Can I come get you from the airport?” asked she tentatively.
“Work hard and I’ll bring you a present,” said he calmly.
She knew there was no point in saying anything more. Besides, offering to greet him at the airport was just a courtesy offer. The two of them chatted for a while more before ending the call because Gabriel was about to start a video conference.
When Gabriel was not around, Linda often came to Zephyr Group, not to wait for Gabriel but to see Serenity.
And it seemed that Linda had been timing her arrival perfectly. Every time Serenity was about to get off work, Linda would already be outside the office, ready to ask Serenity out for afternoon tea or dinner.
Those who didn’t know better would think that the two of them were especially good friends.
In fact, the two of them did not have much friendship.
There were very few people in the cafe that afternoon. Serenity stirred the coffee in her cup and said. “Miss Linda, President Jones will be back tomorrow. His flight is at 230 p.m.”
Linda did not insist on meeting up with Serenity for nothing – she had been trying to get any information about Gabriel from her, directly or indirectly. However, Serenity had been able to evade most of them, sparing Linda a few small details of Gabriel’s life.
For example, he didn’t like to add sugar to his coffee, he didn’t like to be disturbed when he was working, he didn’t like clingy women, and so on.
