Chapter 357: Telling Tales
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
âButâŚâ Serenityâs main concern wasnât about Madam Eaton as a person, but what she would say about Serenity and Gabriel to others. âWhat if she says bad things about me in front of Mom and Mom doesnât like me?â freewebno vel.co m
Gabriel gazed at her gently, âAunty does like to spread rumors.â
Every time she felt depressed, she would subconsciously bite her lip.
Gabrielâs thumb caressed her red lips and saved her from biting them until they were pale. âEven if Aunty doesnât say anything, Dad and Mom wonât accept you for a while. So, it doesnât really matter who says what, honestly.â
He might have said that nonchalantly but Serenity still couldnât help but worry.
Keith Jones and Sulia Silver had already felt that her family background was not worthy of him. If Madam Eaton were to exaggerate things and make it sound like she was leeching off him, wouldnât they hate her even more?
âDad and Mom are not people who canât differentiate right from wrong. Besides, they know what kind of person Aunty is.â He sighed softly as he looked at her furrowed brows.
The two walked around casually before returning to the living room. When they heard the sound of laughter, Gabriel stopped in his tracks. Serenity, who was slightly behind him, stopped in time to avoid bumping into him.
âGo get Young Madamâs bag,â said Gabriel to the butler.
âYes, Young Master.â The butler replied respectfully.
After being outside for a long time, her hands were cold and stiff so Serenity put her hands in her pockets. Her bright red coat made her look like a delicate flower in late autumn. Her cheeks were flushed as she asked, âArenât we going in?â
âI donât want to go in and cause trouble.â Gabriel turned his body sideways.
âIsnât that good? Letâs go in and at least say our goodbyes.â Everyone was inside. Was it really okay for them to leave without saying a word?
Gabriel was used to doing things his own way, but it was her first time visiting the Jones family today. She had to leave a good impression on everyone so that they would not gossip behind her back.
Gabriel could tell that she was afraid of leaving a bad impression on the people in the room, so he held her hand and walked in.
Since the butler had already entered to get Serenityâs bag, Sulia found out that the couple was leaving without saying a word. Madam Eaton said, âSis, the Rivers family must be quite ill-mannered to not have raised their daughters to say their goodbyes to the elders before leaving. How could they act so arrogantly without even getting your permission to go? If she is to truly be accepted into the Jones family, wouldnât such behavior be bad?â
Madam Barlowe had a relatively better impression of Serenity, seeing her as a rather dignified and graceful person. However, she had to agree with her sister that it was impolite to do leave without a word.
âMaybe they have something urgent to attend to,â said Linda as if to be considerate. She was deliberately showing off in front of Sulia Silver today.
However, Madam Barloweâs good impression of Linda disappeared, believing the latter was only making things more difficult for Serenity.
Suliaâs expression was not looking too good as she quietly said, âNo matter how urgent the matter is, they should at least inform everyone. How much time can they waste?â
âThatâs right.â Madam Eaton wasted no time in agreeing with her sister.
Serenity and Gabriel had just stepped into the living room when they heard their argument. A sneer escaped from the manâs cold lips. He glanced at Madam Eaton indifferently and then turned to Sulia Silver. âWe just walked around for a little too long. But what is this Iâm hearing? Canât 1 visit the Jones residence in my own time and manner?â
The last sentence was cold but his gaze was even colder, his deep black eyes giving off an invisible sense of oppression..
