Serenity smiled at him gratefully. She was planning to check online after the meeting ended. It seemed like there was no need to go through so much trouble.

Throughout the remainder of the meeting, Serenity would tug at Gabriel’s sleeve whenever she encountered unfamiliar terms.

And Gabriel would take the meeting minutes and write down the translation. Then, she took back the notebook and continued to record the rest.

After an hour and twenty-eight minutes, Johnson finally couldn’t help but say, “President Jones, is there someone beside you?.”

Before Gabriel could say anything, another high-level manager said, “It must be Assistant Caleb taking the minutes.”

Johnson shook his head. “I saw a woman’s hand. It was white and tender.”

Serenity was embarrassed. She must have been seen when she took back the meeting records from Gabriel’s hands.

Johnson’s assistant said, “It might be Assistant Rivers.” n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Serenity could no longer pretend to be deaf and mute after being called out. The meeting was already over anyway.

She leaned over and greeted Johnson and the others in the video. “Hello everyone.”

Johnson chuckled. “Assistant Rivers, your way of greeting is too uncreative.”

Serenity had to face the video, so she tilted half of her body and almost snuggled into Gabriel’s embrace.

The fragrance on her body entered his breath and caused a wave in his heart.

Serenity chatted casually with Johnson and the rest, not noticing how ambiguous their positions were.

After saying a few words, she cut off the video call. Serenity moved the chair back to its original position and prepared to leave with the meeting records.

“Someone saw you go to the hospital. Are you feeling unwell anywhere?” asked Gabriel gently.

Serenity’s heart trembled and her eyes flickered. “Uncle Grant is sick so 1 went to the hospital to visit him.”

Gabriel pursed his thin lips into a straight line and did not say a word.

She couldn’t figure out what he meant, so she carefully said, “If there’s nothing else, I’ll return to work.”

Gabriel remained silent. He took the document beside him and flipped through it. Serenity gave him one last look and left the office.

Hearing the office door close, Gabriel looked up from his documents and stared at the tightly shut door. He had mixed feelings.

On the weekend, Serenity accompanied Helena Turner to the hospital to visit Chris Grant.

Helena accompanied Chris as they chatted in the ward. Serenity couldn’t stand the smell of disinfectant, so she left and walked around.

She was so preoccupied with her thoughts that she did not notice the familiar male voice in front of her.

“Old Master Grant will get his lawyer to write a will in the next two days. I’ve probed him, but he won’t let it go.”

A middle-aged woman’s voice rang out. “If you and your brother perform well these few days, the shares of Grant Group might not fall into the hands of that b*stard.”

When she heard Grant Group mentioned, Serenity subconsciously looked up.

A man and a woman were standing by the path in front of the flower garden. The man was Shia Grant, the young master of the Grant family, and the woman standing opposite him was his mother.

She had seen Mrs. Grant before, so she still remembered her face.

Shia snorted coldly. “Dad is too biased. If he wasn’t afraid that John would get justice for his mother, he would have handed the company over to him long ago. He didn’t care about Simon and me at all.”

Mrs. Grant said, “If the company falls into his hands, then the three of us will not have a good life in the future. Back then, Nina’s death… In any case, you and Simon have to work hard. Monitor him in the company for the next few days and see if he makes any strange movements. I’ll get Simon to guard the hospital bed like a filial son as well….”
