“Not bad.” Gabriel closed the newspaper in his hand.
Relieved, she sat down and started eating breakfast. By 8:40 a.m., the couple had driven out of South Bay, heading to the Jones’s main residence.
After driving for more than forty minutes, they arrived at their destination. The device outside the carved iron gate scanned the license plate and automatically opened the door. Gabriel drove in slowly and they soon came upon a spacious opening centered with a beautiful fountain.
He had called the main residence at noon yesterday to inform them that he was bringing Serenity back today. So, when the butler heard the car drive in, he led the servants out to greet Gabriel in unison, “Eldest Young Master.”
Gabriel walked around the front of the car to the front passenger seat and opened the door. Serenity got out and was momentarily stunned by the scene greeting her. Gabriel turned to the welcome party and said, “She will be the Young Madam from now on.”
The servants looked at each other, still not daring to address her as Young Madam without the approval of their master and madam. Unsure of what to do, they looked to the butler for direction.
The butler was a smart man so he smiled and said, “Eldest Young Master, Master and Madam are waiting for you.”
Based on how he set up his sentence, he didn’t need to address Serenity in it. Yet, he was still respectful, thus he did not offend Gabriel or Keith Jones and Sulia Silver.
Gabriel passed the car keys to the butler. “Bring in the things in the trunk,” said he calmly.
Serenity was feeling a little nervous and a thin layer of sweat enveloped her palm. Gabriel held her hand and gently rubbed his thumb over her palm. “My parents are not tigers. They are not as scary as you think. 1 am here for you.”
She nodded. She had met Sulia Silver before. Although she didn’t look easy to get along with, she genuinely believed Sulia wasn’t an unreasonable person.
According to Mrs. Winstead, the only reason Serenity would have difficulty getting Sulia’s approval would be because of her straightforward personality. Serenity’s family background was one of the most important factors, besides being generous, smart, and humble.
Gabriel placed her hand on his arm and led her into the living room. The servants followed behind them with the gifts.
Today, Sulia Silver had invited some of her relatives over so Gabriel and Serenity could hear quite some laughter coming from the living room.
After entering the living room, Serenity was stunned at the sight of the woman sitting with Sulia Silver.
Linda smiled in the couple’s direction. Serenity returned the gesture though she was feeling surprised and confused. Why was Linda here and sitting sitting with Sulia Silver like a mother and daughter too?
Gabriel frowned slightly. Completely ignoring Linda’s presence, he looked at Sulia Silver and Keith Jones. “Dad, Mom. This is my wife, Serenity.”
The rest of the relatives didn’t say anything. After all, this wasn’t their family’s business. They were only here to check out the new young madam of the Jones family.
Gabriel could tell that Serenity was in a daze so he gently pulled her closer to him by the waist. She came back to her senses and greeted Keith and Sulia. “Dad, Mom.”.
Sulia Silver didn’t have much of a reaction when she heard Serenity but she didn’t reject her either. Keith Jones, on the other hand, frowned. “We only have two children in the Jones family and neither are daughters.”
His words were not polite at all – a direct rejection of her as his daughter-in-law. Serenity felt awkward.
Gabriel frowned.. “If that’s how you want to define family, are you planning to remove Auntie from the Jones family’s genealogy?”
