Love After a Steamy Affair

13 Exiled by the Rivers family Outside the hotel.

Gabriel Jones entered the car and took a look at the woman who was standing outside the hotel through the window. Her dress was blown by the evening breeze, making her look very ethereal.

She stood in front of the blinking decorative lights of the hotel, and those beautiful lights made her figure look slimmer and more slender than usual. It was as though it would take only one puff of wind to blow her away.

He said in a deep and cold voice, “Check on Serenity Rivers.”

When he saw her clear and bright eyes that day, he really thought that she needed money and, hence, was helplessly forced to come up to him and act as his lover. As such, he did not send someone to investigate her background and never thought that she was actually the daughter of the Rivers family.

Caleb, who was sitting in the driver’s seat, replied, “Understood.”

At the hotel, Gabriel took the documents that Caleb had given him just now and lowered his eyes to look at the paper in his hands. His dark and thick eyebrows were slightly furrowed.

Serenity was the youngest daughter of Benjamin. She was currently 23 years old and was sent to her grandma’s house in Willow Town when she was three. She returned to the Rivers family at the age of 13 and went to California when she was 20. Other than the usual monthly living expenses, she could almost be considered as an exile in the Rivers family.

When Selena and John got married, he was invited to attend the wedding, but he did not see Serenity there. It seemed that she had already been sent away at that time.

Although they were both daughters of the Rivers family, Selena was much more glamorous than she was. Also, she married the heir of Grant Group and, thus, frequently accompanied him to attend various banquets and business meetings.

In Andalas, if anyone were to mention the daughter of the Rivers family, the first person that would come to their mind would be Selena. Serenity, on the other hand, was almost forgotten by everyone.

If it were not for the document in his hands, he also would not have remembered that the Rivers family still had another daughter.

He walked to the bar and opened a bottle of red wine. He took a goblet and poured some wine in it before shaking it gently. He took a sip, and his deep eyes looked very mysterious.

After Serenity went back to the Rivers residence, she went to the bathroom and prepared to take a bath. However, her phone suddenly rang, and a foreign number could be seen on the screen. She suspiciously answered the call. “Hello?”

“It’s me. Come to the hotel!” Gabriel’s voice over the phone sounded especially cold and deep. Her heart took a dive upon her hearing his angry voice. What about her had enraged him?

She did not even have the time to shower anymore. She quickly changed into a new set of clothes before taking her bag and going downstairs. Peals of laughter could be heard from the living room.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

John and Selena had not left, and everyone was sitting around Master Samson on the sofa.

Selena was sitting in front of the coffee table while she brewed some tea for Master Samson. She looked very skillful and familiar with the process. One look at her and one would know that she frequently practiced the art of brewing tea.

This was probably one of the reasons why Master Samson liked her so much. Selena would cater to his preferences and make Master Samson happy, but Serenity could not.

This was because she knew that no matter what she did, Master Samson would not be happy. And thus, she did not want to waste her time.

Mrs. Walter took out the washed fruits from the kitchen, and upon seeing the bag in Serenity’s hands, she asked, “Miss Serenity, where are you going at this hour of the night?”

Upon hearing Mrs. Walter’s words, everyone looked at her in unison. She bravely said to Benjamin and Helena, “Grandpa, Dad, Mom, | need to go out to take care of some matters.”

When it came to this little daughter of his, Benjamin was not very concerned. Hence, he replied with only a faint “Hmm.” Master Samson, on the other hand, placed all of his attention on Selena and did not care about her.

Helena was a little worried about her. “Serene, it’s already so late. Where are you going?” She found a random excuse. “I am going to buy some stuff.”

Helena did not probe further and reminded her to come home earlier. She ordered Mrs. Walter to ask Mr. Geoffrey to send her there.
