Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Dinner is ready so have some first before you go,” said Helena.

Old Master Samson was still in a fit of anger. Serenity knew she would only annoy him if she stayed. “Grandpa probably doesn’t want to see me. I’ll only make him angrier if I stay.”

She knew Master Samson’s temper well so Helena Turner could only sigh heavily. “Be careful on your way back.”

Serenity took the coat and handbag from Mrs. Walter and left the Rivers residence with Gabriel.

After returning to South Bay, Serenity greeted Mrs. Winstead and returned to her room. She rolled up her sleeves and saw a red mark on her left arm.

There was not much fat on her arm and Old Master Samson had hit her hard so it would be a lie if she said it didn’t hurt.

But she was also relieved she used her arm to protect herself. Otherwise, the bruise on the rest of her body would have been worse.

Even though Old Master Samson had never liked her, he had never hit her in the past because she was obedient. This was the first time.

If her grandmother had not passed away, she would not have been brought back to the Rivers residence as long as Old Master Samson was still alive.

After her grandmother passed away, she had to return since she was still young and had no one to rely on in Willow Town.

The bedroom door opened and Serenity hurriedly rolled down her sleeves. Gabriel walked in with medicine in his hands. When he saw her flustered actions, he frowned slightly.

He walked over to her and sat down. He lifted her sleeves to reveal the red marks on her fair, slender arm.

Gabriel’s frown deepened at the sight of her wound. He silently massaged the ointment on her wound.

Serenity frowned and hissed softly at his touch. She wasn’t being pretentious – it really hurt. 𝓯𝙧𝒆𝒆𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝓸𝓿𝒆𝓵.𝙘𝓸𝓶

Gabriel opened the curtains and glanced at her pale face.

“How did you know I was injured?” The wound was on her arm which was covered with her sleeve. He wasn’t there at the time, so how would he know?

But she forgot that, back at the Rivers residence, she had frowned slightly when she lifted her arm to receive the bag and coat from Mrs. Walter. Her face was even paler than before. Based on her reaction, he guessed that her arm was injured. f(r)eenovelkiss

“You knew what would happen. Why did you go?”

If she didn’t, Old Master Samson would be angrier, which would translate to Helena suffering.

“1 am still a Rivers,” said she, trying to hide her complicated emotions. “What reason do I have to refuse Grandpa’s invitation?”

Gabriel massaged her for a few more minutes before he got up and went to the washroom. After washing his hands, the two went downstairs together. Mrs. Winstead had already placed dinner on the dining table.

Fortunately, she had injured her left hand and not her right hand. Otherwise, she might not even be able to hold her chopsticks properly.

The meal was silent.

After, Gabriel went to the study room. Serenity looked at her phone for a while. When she got up and was about to go upstairs, the landline rang. Mrs.

Winstead was busy so she picked it up since she was next to it anyway.

“Mrs. Winstead, tell Young Master to bring Serenity back to the main residence this weekend.”

It was Sulia’s voice.

Serenity gently said, “Madam Jones, I’ll pass the message to him.”

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line. “I’ve called Gabriel many times these past few days, but he hasn’t acted on anything. If you two are truly planning to be together, return to the main residence this weekend. His father wants to see you.”

She did not know what Gabriel was thinking so she headed up to the study on the second floor after she hung up the phone. Serenity knocked on the door and entered..
