Chapter 122: Forget What Should Be Forgotten

Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Serenity noticed that Gabriel had no intention of answering Joseph, she decided to answer on her boss’s behalf, “Yes.”

Joseph Lopez was alert as the corners of his lips curled into an intoxicating arc. Then he teased Gabriel. “If it’s just Jack Sawyer looking for you, it’s probably about work. But by bringing his daughter, is he planning to use her as a honey trap?”

Gabriel pursed his thin lips and glanced at Serenity indifferently, implying that she was being meddlesome.

Serenity’s watery eyes shifted and the corners of her lips curled up slightly. “President Jones, if there’s nothing else you need, I’ll be returning to my desk.”

Joseph Lopez watched her leave with an interested smile. After the office door closed, he said, “You have to be gentle with women. Do you plan to be single for the rest of your life?”

Gabriel’s lips remained pursed as he looked at his friend. “If you have nothing better to do, go home and accompany your babies.”

At the mention of his precious children, Joseph Lopez’s smile widened. He stretched out his long legs and hopped down from the desk. “You’re wrong. There are three.”

Gabriel’s long eyes slowly narrowed and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips. “I forgot that you treasure your wife like a baby too. You’d exchanged your life for her, wouldn’t you?”

Joseph Lopez’s eyes narrowed as the smile on his lips faded slightly. For some reason, he started thinking of all the things that had happened in the past, and his heart became bitter.

“I’m leaving.” He picked up the car keys beside him but stopped after taking two steps. He turned back to look at the calm Gabriel. “It’s been so many years. There are some things that should be forgotten. Don’t torture yourself.”

After he left, Gabriel’s gaze turned unfocused as sat with pursed lips in silence. Then, he lit a cigarette and took a deep puff. Layers of smoke slowly came out from his thin lips, suppressing the frustration in his heart.

Jack Sawyer and his daughter waited until it was almost after working hours but still caught no glimpses of Gabriel. Every time Serenity went in to refill their cups of tea, Linda would pull her closer to ask when they could see Gabriel. Serenity was running out of excuses to give them, so she eventually stopped refilling their tea.

When it was time to get off work, Serenity’s colleagues started leaving. She wasted no time packing up her things too to get off work, but now without sneaking a peek into the reception room. Jack Sawyer and his daughter were still waiting inside.

Were these two planning to wait until nightfall?

She knew Linda’s intentions with Gabriel. That woman simply did not know how to quit after all the walls she had hit trying to get close to him. Serenity wondered how stubborn Linda truly was.

Frank came out of the reference room with a stack of documents in his arms.

When she saw Serenity still at her desk, he asked, “Why aren’t you off work yet?”

Then, Frank realized Serenity was looking at something so his gaze followed hers to land on the two individuals sitting in the reception room.

This kind of situation happened often so Frank was already used to it. His expression did not change as he said, “They will leave when they run out of patience.”

As expected of Gabriel’s men, even the indifference in their voices sounded exactly the same.

As he sat in the reception room, Jack Sawyer’s patience was wearing thin as he started to grow anxious. His face had turned as black as the bottom of a pot. Linda was looking at her watch more frequently, also losing patience.

“Dad, it’s already 5.30 pm. The secretaries have all gotten off work. President Jones is definitely not going to see us today.” Linda pouted as she complained with dissatisfaction.

Jack Sawyer w^as aw^are, but he refused to admit it. He sw^allow^ed his anger and finally said, “Let’s go back.”

“We’re not waiting a little more?” Linda was a little surprised.

After waiting an entire afternoon, Jack Sawyer’s temper was on the verge of explosion.. He growled as he said, “He won’t see us even if it’s dark! He might have already snuck out of the company!”
