Chapter 393: He Couldn’t Bear This Accident

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Gabriel remained silent as she continued to say, “This matter has nothing to do with Ms. Lewis and Sam. But because of your words, both of them lost their jobs.”

Gabriel walked towards his office as he calmly said, “If it wasn’t for Diana Lewis, we wouldn’t have gone up the mountain. If it wasn’t for Sam who brought you to the temple at the back of the mountain, you wouldn’t have gotten separated from me. If it weren’t for them, everything that happened up till now wouldn’t have happened.”

“It was just an accident,” said she anxiously.

“It is not just an accident,” said Gabriel sternly.

“But I’m fine now. Isn’t all that matters?” Her tone was a little intense.

While they were talking, Gabriel had arrived at this office. He pushed the door open and walked in. “If I hadn’t found you in the end, do you know how serious the consequences would have been?”

Serenity still would not relent, trying her best to make him understand that the matter had passed and there was no point pursuing it. “Despite all the dangers that happened, I’m fine now.”

“The matter has passed, but there will always be consequences,” said Gabriel calmly.

Serenity had been doing her best to suppress the full range of her anger when she heard that Ms. Lewis and Sam had been forced to resign because of her. But his stubborn and casual refusal to let it go was testing her limits. “It was just an accident, why can’t you understand that?”

“I won’t change my decision!” Gabriel’s tone was cold as he almost shouted into the phone.

Serenity was tempted to throw her phone out the window as her chest heaved up and down violently. Then, she coldly said, “This incident started because of me. I caused them to lose their jobs. Didn’t you think that doing this would only make me feel guilty for the rest of my life?”

Without waiting for him to speak, she hung up. Gabriel looked at the black screen on his phone, his chest tightening.

She kept insisting that it was an accident but didn’t she know that he hated surprises and unexpected events?

When he heard that she was at the signal tower that collapsed, he could still clearly remember how distressed he felt.

He never wanted to experience that feeling again.

Sam sat in the square until five o’clock. When he got up to leave, he received a call from Serenity.

Her car was parked across from him in the plaza as Serenity looked at him through the car window.

“Shouldn’t you be cooking at home and waiting for President Jones to get off work?” Sam laughed.

She was not surprised by Sam’s teasing words. “Cut the crap. Are we going to get dinner or not?”

“Well, I am hungry.” Sam giggled. “Where are you?”

Serenity looked around her. “Midmount Road. Let’s meet at the newly opened restaurant near Times Square. What about you?” asked she.

Sam’s eyes wandered around the square before he lied, not noticing the car opposite him. “I’m filming outside. It’s near the square.”

“Alright, I’ll be right there,” said Serenity.

After hanging up the phone, she watched Sam enter the restaurant. It took about twenty minutes to get from Midmount Road to Times Square, so she waited in the car for more than twenty minutes before getting out. She crossed the road and walked into the restaurant.

The newly opened restaurant was decorated very well. With the waiter’s recommendations, the two ordered a few of the chef’s latest dishes.

Serenity took a sip of lemonade. “Since you had a shoot, where’s your camera?”

Sam rolled his eyes. “It’s broken. That’s why I sent it to be repaired before 1 came.”

Somehow, Serenity’s gaze betrayed her intentions to keep up the act and Sam was stunned. He gripped the cup of water in his hand tightly and did not speak for a long time..
