Chapter 125 - 125: Swapping the Work of the Two
The next day, Serenity went to work as usual. When Gabriel passed by the secretary’s office, he paused slightly in front of her and glanced at her from the corner of his eyes before walking into the office.
Caleb stopped in front of her. “If you don’t feel well, you can rest for a day.”
“It’s just a heatstroke, not a serious illness,” said she with a chuckle.
The preparations for the venue were not completed yet and the opening was in two days. Knowing the urgency of the situation, Serenity continued to lead the team at the resort to complete their tasks. Everyone gathered and prepared to set off.
Gabriel had a meeting at nine o’clock. On his way, he passed by the secretary’s office and heard that they were going to the resort. He said, “Serenity, you used to work at a magazine agency before. I need you to write the opening speech.”
Serenity stood up and was about to leave when she heard him. Surprised, she said, “But the resort…”
Gabriel narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Frank. “There can’t be any mistakes on the opening day of the resort.”
The meaning behind his words was very clear. He wanted Frank to go to the resort instead.
Frank pushed up his glasses and said, “Yes, President Jones.”
Gabriel nodded lightly and strode towards the meeting room, leaving behind everyone with strange expressions.
Before Serenity came to Zephyr Group, Frank was the one who wrote all the speeches. Frank had more experience in this area than her.
Neither Serenity nor the others could figure out what was happening.
Serenity had been in charge for the past few days, but today, Frank was tasked with her job. Since the instructions had come so suddenly, Frank was not prepared to be outdoors. So Serenity passed Frank her sunscreen lotion and said, “Secretary Frank, take this.”
“Thank you.” Frank took it and thanked Serenity. It was impossible to tell if there was anything wrong with his mood.
In the afternoon, Serenity knocked on Gabriel’s office door with the speech she had written. “President Jones, here’s the speech for your review and approval. Please feel free to let me know if there is anything you need to change.”
Gabriel received it elegantly and gave it a thorough look-through. He tapped the table rhythmically with one hand and each tap seemed to ring in Serenity’s heart as she looked at him nervously.
Gabriel took a pen and circled a few places, made some changes and comments in other places, and handed the document back to her. “That’s all.”
She looked down at the speech. His handwriting was clean and firm, reminding her of John when she was young.
At that time, she looked at John with admiration. “John, why is your handwriting better than mine? Shouldn’t guys write like dragons and phoenixes, baring your fangs and brandishing your claws?”
He tapped her forehead lightly and proudly said, “Am I an ordinary person?”
At that time, he was unique and irreplaceable to her, so she agreed with him as she hugged his arm coyly and said, “John, what kind of good deed did 1 do in my previous life to meet such an outstanding person like you? I’m so lucky you’re mine. Otherwise, I would definitely be jealous of any other girl standing by your side.”
At that time, she fantasized about how she must have saved the galaxy in her previous lifetime to meet a guy like him then.
Gabriel noticed Serenity was standing by his desk in a daze. He raised his hand to get her attention with slightly raised eyebrows. “Is there anything else?”
Serenity immediately snapped out of it and suddenly said, “Your handwriting is really beautiful.”
Gabriel’s glanced at her sideways with his deep dark eyes. There was an unknown change in his facial expression as he gently lowered his chin and continued to process his e-mail..
