Chapter 182: Why Don’t You Follow Me? Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Some men were more direct and instantly asked Serenity for her phone number. To that, Serenity smoothly said, ‘Til tell you the next time we meet.”

They were only halfway through the banquet but Serenity was already so tired that she had to excuse herself to the bathroom. When she came out, she passed by a lounge and was suddenly dragged in.

She was about to scream in panic when her lips felt hot. Someone had sealed her lips in the darkness.

She struggled to push him away, but the man held her firm.

There was the faint taste of tobacco which was familiar to her. Serenity stopped struggling and the two continued to kiss until they could taste the champagne in their mouths. Neither could tell which flavor belonged to whom anymore.

The kiss left Serenity panting slightly as she called out his name in the darkness. “Gabriel.” There was certainty in her tone.

Asoft chuckle resonated through the darkness. Then, the lights in the lounge were switched on. The light was so piercing that she had to close her eyes for a moment. When she opened them again, Gabriel's well-defined face was reflected in her eyes.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Gabriel placed one palm on the wall, trapping her between him and the wall. He lowered his head as his gaze remained fixed on her.

Serenity’s clear pupils reflected his handsome features and she could see how moist and red his lips had turned after their kiss. His straight nose bridge looked like it was meticulously carved by an artist while his eyes looked as deep as the Mariana Trench.

The aura on his body enveloped her, making her heart race uncontrollably.

As their eyes met, their breaths became intertwined.

It was so silent in the lounge that they could hear each other's heartbeats, though it was hard to tell whose was whose. She tried to push him away with a gentle nudge but he didn’t move at all. “Did you drink too much?”

“What do you think?” The man’s deep voice was hoarse as his gaze remained deep and cold.

Serenity met his deep eyes and asked, “Then why are you acting like this?”

Gabriel's observed her dolled-up face and his lips curled into a faint smile that did not reach his eyes. “Benjamin Rivers hasn't given up yet, has he? Does he still want to use you to save the Rivers family?”

He mocked her and she instantly felt a sense of humiliation throughout her body. She proudly looked back at him and coldly said, “That’s our business. It has nothing to do with you.”

Then came the sound of high heels from the corridor outside. Serenity was afraid of being discovered by others, so she held her breath.

Gabriel noticed how careful she was acting and softly scoffed. He caressed her moist lips and gently stroked them. “Serenity, I’m interested in you. Why don’t you come with me?”

Since Gabriel was standing against the lights, it was hard for Serenity to truly tell what he was thinking. But his fingertips were warm as they lingered on her lips. She could even smell the faint smell of tobacco.

She lowered her eyes slightly and her long eyelashes casted a black silhouette on her eyelids.

Her eyelashes fluttered slightly before she looked back at him firmly with unblinking eyes.

“Then can you help the Rivers family tide over our difficulties?”

Serenity was only half-serious when she asked him this, though there was a slight determination in her eyes.

Instead of marrying someone else, she might as well go with him. They could just sign a contract first so that they could part ways when the objectives have been met, just like their previous relationship.

Gabriel must have known what she was thinking because he did not hesitate at all when he said, “I don’t accept this condition..”
