Calvin ignored his outstretched hand and smiled evilly. “You’ve already stolen my girlfriend. How do you expect me to react?”
President Fulton choked on his words. “I did not know about the relationship between Ms. Serenity and you beforehand.”
Calvin could no longer be bothered with him and looked at Benjamin Rivers. “Mr. Rivers, I’ll visit you again another day, but tonight, 1 will be taking Serenity with me.”
Benjamin was silent, unable to figure out a way to respond without embarrassing himself in front of President Fulton.
Although the Fulton family was not big, Benjamin Rivers had been in the business world for many years. He knew that having one more friend meant opening up more than one path, and one less enemy meant one less obstacle to success.
Calvin noticed Serenity still seated, so he gave her a look but she was still in a daze and did not react. Calvin was about to go crazy.
Shouldn’t she be more focused and cooperate with him?
Afraid that others would see through him, he crouched beside her legs and stared at her. “It’s my fault for making you angry. I promise I won’t do it again. If you want to get married, I’ll bring you to meet my parents tomorrow and then prepare for the wedding.”
These words were said with such deep affection that those who didn’t know better would think that Serenity was an insensible little woman who only knew how to throw a tantrum.
Serenity gave the situation a thought and decided to cooperate with him. “Then no matter how busy you are in the future, you can’t ignore my calls, lest I let my imagination run wild.”
Other than Mrs. Fulton and President Fulton’s daughter, everyone knew what kind of person Calvin Gilbert was, which immediately prevented ‘insensible’ from further tarnishing Serenity’s image.
Calvin still ended up being in the wrong. His face darkened, not expecting this woman to have such a sharp tongue.
He put on a fake smile and said, “Alright, 1’11 be sure to answer all your calls in the future.”
Serenity picked up her handbag and stood up. Calvin Gilbert wrapped his arm around her shoulders and turned to Benjamin Rivers and Helena Turner. “Mr. and Mrs. Rivers, we’ll be leaving first.”
Benjamin could only nod expressionlessly.
A waiter was standing at the door of the private room. At the snap of Calvin Gilbert’s fingers, the waiter walked in. “Put this meal on my tab.”
“Yes, Young Master,” said the waiter respectfully.
Mrs. Fulton’s eyes widened. No wonder this man spoke so boldly. This restaurant was one of the many businesses run by his family.
After they left the restaurant, Calvin Gilbert let go of Serenity and took out his car keys. He threw them to the valet beside him and turned to look at Serenity. “I was wondering why you had suddenly called me and agreed to the marriage. Turns out it was because you were forced to this extent.”
The night wind was a little chilly so Serenity adjusted her coat to cover herself a little better. There was no sarcasm in Calvin Gilbert’s words, but she felt unusually uncomfortable.
“I think you need to do a DNA test to make sure you’re Benjamin Rivers’s biological daughter,” said Calvin teasingly.
Although he was an outsider, he was certain that Benjamin Rivers would not have treated her marriage so simply if this was Selena. He would have chosen an outstanding son-in-law seriously.
“Calvin Gilbert.” Serenity suddenly called his name.
Calvin noticed how serious she had turned and quickly put away the mischievous smile on his face, waiting for her to continue.
He thought she was going to say something big, but unexpectedly, she slowly said, “Whether or not someone asked you to do this, I have to thank you tonight..”
