Chapter 224 - 224: What Is Their Relationship?
Just as this thought formed in her mind, Calvin Gilbert saw her through the crowd and called her. “Serene.”
Serenity was instantly stunned and regretted stopping. If she had known earlier, she would have arranged to meet him somewhere else. She did not need to turn around to know that everyone was looking at her at this moment.
Calvin saw how she looked as if she wanted to dig a hole in the ground and hide in it, and the smile on his face grew wider. He took a few steps forward and stuffed the flowers into her arms. Then, in a slightly aggrieved tone, he said, “Why did you only come out now? I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”
Serenity wished she could throw the flowers in her hand at his face. She gritted her teeth and discreetly said, “You did this on purpose, didn’t you?”
After this ruckus, everyone in the company would know that she had a rich boyfriend tomorrow. He was not only handsome but also very romantic.
Calvin put his arm around her shoulders and led her to the car. When he saw the beautiful women looking over, he did not forget to wink at them. Then, he also discreetly said, “I’m bringing you back to the Gilbert family today. After meeting my parents, they’ll definitely be urging us to get married to prevent you from cuckolding me. I’m just announcing my ownership over you to everyone.”
Serenity was so angry that she couldn’t speak.
Calvin Gilbert walked to the front of the car and opened the door to the front passenger seat for her like a gentleman. He then reached out a hand to protect her head. After she got in, he closed the door and went around the front of the car to get into the driver’s seat.
Serenity threw the flowers in her hand onto the back seat and raised her arm to take a whiff. She could only smell the scent of pollen on her body so she quickly rolled down the car window to air out the car.
In a Maybach not far away, Gabriel watched the scene expressionlessly. When he saw Serenity get into Calvin Gilbert’s car, his black eyes narrowed slightly.
Caleb momentarily forgot that there was someone behind him and muttered to himself, “Is Mr. Calvin chasing Serenity?”
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a cold chill on his back as the air in the car suddenly became a little gloomy.
When they arrived at the Gilbert residence, Calvin Gilbert leaned over and Serenity subconsciously shrank back against the car door. She glared at him and said, “What are you doing?”
Calvin saw how nervous she was and chuckled. He was just reaching out to unbuckle her seatbelt and then untie her hair, allowing her long hair to flow down her shoulders.
Her hair was naturally slightly curly like seaweed. When it was draped over her shoulders, it not only gave her a quiet and elegant temperament but also accentuated her delicate and fair cheeks.
Calvin glanced outside. “My dad is a very smart man and is probably going to put on a good show later, so don’t be nervous. Just be careful not to expose yourself.”
Serenity followed his line of sight and saw the butler standing beside the parterre outside the living room. He was looking in their direction.
Calvin got out of the car and went around the other side to open the car door for Serenity who got out of the car with her bag in hand. Calvin then opened the back door and took out the flowers.
With the bouquet in one hand and the other placed lightly on Serenity’s waist, the pair walked into the living room.
“Mr. Calvin, Ms. Serenity.” The butler respectfully greeted them at the entrance.
Calvin stuffed the flowers into the butler’s arms. “Put it away first. Don’t ruin it. Serene likes it very much.”
The butler nodded and received the bouquet carefully. Calvin Gilbert brought Serenity into the living room. A servant took two pairs of slippers and placed them by the pair’s feet. After changing into the slippers, the pair entered the living room..
