Gabriel pondered for a moment and thought about Jack Sawyer. He had never paid much attention to unimportant people, so he only had a vague impression of him.

...

He tugged at his tie and walked around the desk to sit down in the executive chair. “Bring her in.”

Serenity went to the waiting room to bring Linda into the office. The moment Linda saw Gabriel, she changed into a different person. Even her tone had turned gentle as she said, “President Jones, I hope 1 didn’t disturb you.”

Serenity saw that she had nothing else to do and was about to leave the office when Gabriel suddenly said, “A cup of coffee.”

Then, he asked Linda what she wanted to drink in a gentlemanly manner.

Linda was a little flattered and said with joy in her eyes, “Juice is fine.”

Serenity responded and left for the pantry to brew a cup of coffee and pour a glass of fruit juice. When she arrived at the door of the President’s office, she forgot to knock and simply let herself in.

But the atmosphere in the office was not good. Linda was sobbing softly while Gabriel’s face was dark and cold.

Her hand on the doorknob stiffened, caught in a dilemma. Just as she was pondering whether she should leave, Gabriel’s clear and cool voice said, “Why are you standing at the door?”

She was extremely embarrassed so she quickly braced herself and entered the office. Serenity also made sure to close the door behind her so that no one outside would see or hear anything.

“President Jones, here’s your coffee.” She placed the coffee on the table and glanced at Linda, whose face was slightly pale. She could not guess what she had said to make Gabriel angry.

Gabriel took a sip of coffee and frowned slightly.

She immediately became nervous. Could it be that the taste was wrong?

She had just tasted it and there was nothing wrong with it. Could it be that he was not used to the coffee she made?

But almost immediately, Gabriel’s furrowed brows relaxed. He put down his coffee and said, “Miss Sawyer, please leave.”

She looked at Linda. But before she could say anything, Linda picked up her bag and bowed to Gabriel. “President Jones, sorry to have disturbed you.”

Her delicate voice sounded a little aggrieved. Coupled with the red corners of her eyes, it was as if she had been bullied.

Without waiting for Serenity to lead her out, Linda opened the office door and rushed out.

Serenity packed up the fruit juice that she had prepared for Linda. Just as she turned around, she heard Gabriel say, “Next time, don’t add sugar to my coffee.”

It was her second day at work. No one had told her about Gabriel’s habit of drinking coffee without sugar, so she really could not be blamed.

“Then can 1 get you a new cup?” She turned around and looked at the coffee beside his hand. No wonder he didn’t touch it after taking a sip.

Without looking at her, he said, “Call Frank over.”

Serenity left the President’s office and found Frank in the information room. She walked over to him to relay Gabriel’s words.

When it was time to get off work, she was afraid Gabriel would drag her along with him for another social event, so she hurriedly packed her things and left with everyone else.

After she started working at Zephyr, Benjamin had specially asked Mr.s Geoffrey to send her to and from work. But she was afraid that her colleagues would misunderstand, so she asked Mr. Geoffrey to wait for her at an inconspicuous place 200 meters away from the company.

Just as she opened the car door and was about to get in, a fashionable Porsche stopped beside her. The window rolled down, revealing Linda’s beautiful face. “Serenity, let’s have a meal together.”

She was stunned for a moment and wanted to find an excuse to get rid of her. Just then, her phone rang. She took it out and saw that it was Gabriel calling her. She grumbled and tried to calm herself as she picked up the call.

If Gabriel was going to attend another dinner party, then she might as well agree to have dinner with Linda.

Gabriel’s usual low and clear voice traveled into her ears through the phone. “You ran quite fast..”
