Chapter 204: His Personal Nanny
Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Serenity usually had insomnia the first night she arrived at any foreign place. So on this very night in Jonan City, she found herself half awake.
Despite getting only a little sleep, Serenity woke up early the next morning. After washing up, she looked at the river from the balcony for a while. With the morning light reflecting off the wavy surface, the view sparkled with the sun’s rays.
At seven o’clock, she took the elevator to the presidential suite and knocked on the door. Gabriel was brushing his teeth when he opened the door upon hearing the knock.
Serenity did not expect to be greeted by a Gabriel still with foam in his mouth. Gabriel, on the other hand, simply took a glance at her before turning back into the washroom.
Dumbfounded, Serenity stood at the door for a few seconds before entering the room and following Gabriel who was rinsing his mouth by now, wearing a black shirt, matching trousers, and custom-made Italian leather shoes.
When he spat out the mouthwash, he was half-bent and his shirt clung to his broad back, showing off his sculpted back muscles and spine.
This man was indeed from a prestigious family – his every movement was the definition of elegance and nobility.
Gabriel turned around the moment he was done, only to find Serenity standing at the door to the washroom, staring at him. He looked back at her warmly before leaving for the bedroom to buckle his watch on his wrist.
Serenity continued to follow him like a lost puppy, still with an awkward expression. She couldn’t believe how engrossed she had been in watching him in the washroom earlier.
Quickly composing herself, Serenity let out a slight cough and cleared her throat. “I’m here to ask if you want to go to the dining room downstairs for breakfast or-”
“You go ahead.” Gabriel interrupted her before she could finish her sentence.
The way he responded so quickly and matter-of-factly only further convinced Serenity that he had brought her hear as his nanny.
She wanted to wave her fist angrily at him in protest but gave up the thought in the next second. Then, she remembered that Caleb had bought eggs yesterday, so she headed into the kitchen to fry eggs and prepare a breakfast porridge.
Serenity was expecting him to reject the simple breakfast she made so it took her by surprise when he sat and ate the food she made without a word of protest.
With Gabriel eating away without a fuss, Serenity packed the rest of the food she made into a lunchbox for Caleb.
Gabriel noticed the lunchbox and asked, “Who is this for?”
Serenity was eating the porridge since she did not like greasy food for breakfast. “Caleb’s.”
Gabriel nonchalantly said, “Caleb is from Jonan City.”
In other words, Caleb wasn’t like him who couldn’t get used to the food in Jonan City. She was worried for nothing about Caleb not having an appetite for the food here.
“Really?” asked she in surprise.
“Do you think I have a reason to lie to you?” Gabriel spoke rather matter-of-factly but there was a hint of dissatisfaction at being questioned that lingered in his tone.
Serenity pursed her lips and smiled awkwardly. “I didn’t hear him mention it so 1 was just a little surprised.”
After breakfast, Gabriel was about to head over to the construction site. Serenity dumped the dishes in the kitchen and rushed out to catch up with him.
When Gabriel came out of the bedroom with a suit jacket in his hand, he noticed her movements and said, “You don’t have to go with me. Remember to make dinner.”
Wasn’t she here as his assistant?
Didn’t that mean that she was supposed to follow him wherever he went?
When did she merely become his cook?
He was treating her like his nanny!
Before she could protest, Gabriel had already left.
The moment the door closed behind him, Serenity’s heart was on the verge of breaking down as she screamed at him in her head: ‘Gabriel, you b*stard!’
