Love After a Steamy Affair

Chapter 25: Have a Second String to One’s Bow Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios She immediately stopped in her footsteps and pitifully pouted. “President Jones, | didn’t do it on purpose...”

Benjamin heard the commotion and walked forward. When he saw the stain on Gabriel’s shirt and the woman who kept apologizing, he immediately understood what happened.

As the host, he was very apologetic that such an incident occurred. “President Jones, please proceed to the guest room upstairs and take a rest. | will immediately order someone to bring some clothes for you.”

Although Benjamin was older than Gabriel by a generation, the Jones family had wealthy possessions in Andalas and had a large business so he had to treat him with caution.

Due to his pride, his tone might be sorry yet he did not have a respectful apologetic posture.

Serenity put down the wine glass and walked forward. Before she was even clear on what happened, she heard Benjamin saying, “Serene, bring President Jones to the guest room to rest.”

She slowly acknowledged his words and glanced at Gabriel’s shirt before gesturing with one hand. “President Jones, this way, please.”

Gabriel followed her out of the banquet hall as she walked at the very front and hurriedly went forward to press the lift button. Just then, the lift stopped at this level, and after she pressed the button, the lift door slowly opened.

The two people walked in. She pressed the up button and the lift door closed before the lift proceeded up.

In the lift, both of them did not speak to each other and she calmly glanced at Gabriel.

Although his expression was indifferent as usual, his eyes had a hint of coldness.

She wanted to find a topic to ease the atmosphere, but they were not too familiar with each other despite doing the most intimate thing together. She thought for a while and could not find any suitable topic.

After both of them had that level of relationship with each other, she had searched Gabriel's information on the internet too and had a simple understanding of him.

At that moment, with just a look, she knew that he was in a terrible mood. If she had hastily spoken with him, it would anger him further and it would not end well if innocent bystanders got in trouble.

She was not willing to be the sacrificial lamb, to be another person’s punching bag. “Ding.” The lift door opened, and the two of them walked out of the lift respectively.

When they reached the guest room, she took out the room key card and swiped it. With a soft sound, she opened the door before retreating to a side, letting Gabriel enter the room first.

“President Jones, take a bath first. The clothes will be sent here immediately.”

With that said, she entered the bathroom and checked the shower.

Although the hotel would not make such a simple mistake, it was better to be safe than sorry.

She walked out of the bathroom and saw Gabriel on the phone. She silently stood at the side to wait for him.

Gabriel was calling his assistant, Caleb, but his line was busy and he could not contact him even after calling him two times. Serenity saw that he furrowed his brows and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Gabriel took off his coat and threw it on the sofa before passing the car key to her.

“| have spare clothes in my car, take them for me.” “Sure,” she replied and took the car key. Although she was not his subordinate, she was the host today.

Moreover, both of them had that level of relationship with each other, so he was not going overboard in asking her to do sucha thing.

She took the car key and was prepared to go out of the guest room. She was thinking that she would be back soon and Gabriel would take a while to bathe so no one would open the door for her. Hence, she turned back and took the room card.

After she was out of the room, she helped him close the door, too before taking the lift to the car park in the basement. She had seen Gabriel’s car once and remembered his car plate number, so his car was not difficult to find.

She looked in the car’s back seat but there was nothing.

Then, she went to the car trunk and opened it. There was a paper bag inside it.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

She opened it and found that spare clothes were inside. There was a blazer, a dress shirt, and long pants. He was indeed prepared for such unexpected situations..
