10 Unfavored Child

Gabriel Jones kept his women for only three months. During this period, they had to be at his beck and call and they were not allowed to find him in his company or make a ruckus there. After their break-up in three months, they were not allowed to pester him.

Outside, there were rumors that said his personality was cold and dull, but women who wanted to have sex with him were like an unruly crowd on a wild goose chase.

That was because he had money and power. Moreover, he gave loads of money to women who dated him. After three months, they would even receive a significant sum of money for their breakup.

After their session, Gabriel did not loiter around and left. After he left, the room was still filled with an enchanting atmosphere of people making love to each other.

Serenity took the check from the nightstand and looked at the numbers on it. Her lips curled up into a self-deprecating smile. Five hundred thousand. Her first time...

Just now, they did it a total of three times. Because John did not need it, she gave her most precious thing to a stranger. Whether it was family background or looks, this man would not lose to John, so she would not lose out either, right? Yet why was her heart in pain? The type of pain where she felt indignant after being abandoned by others.

Acool liquid slowly flowed down from her eyes, and she tried her best to bite down on her lips, preventing herself from crying.

The Rivers residence had been passed down for several generations. It was a retro-style house that looked like a castle. Green and slimy ivy climbed on the walls of the red house and looked very eye-catching under the sunlight.

The sycamore tree in the residence was tall and straight while the flower garden was stylish and beautiful. The water fountain was like a heavenly girl scattering flowers. During midsummer, it was cool and comforting to have a slow walk under the shade of trees.

Serenity Rivers made someone move a deck chair on the grass patch beside the flower garden. She lay on the deck chair and silently read her book. A cup of coffee was placed on the transparent glass table beside her, and the scene gave off a sense of leisure during a peaceful time.

Mrs. Walter rushed forward. “Miss Serenity, Master Samson and the others have come back.” “| got it,” she replied and closed the book in her hands. She collected herself and walked to the living room.

An old man over 60 years of age sat on the sofa while holding an exquisitely-carved walking stick. On his thumb was an amber ring, and his white hair was neatly combed.

A pair of travel-worn husband and wife sat beside him. The man was wearing a suit and leather shoes while the woman was wearing a dark purple dress and had a beige shawl over her neck. She looked graceful and extravagant.

She changed her shoes at the entrance and walked into the living room. “Grandpa, Dad, Mom.”

Benjamin Rivers gave a slight nod. Compared to Benjamin’s coldness, her mother Helena was emotional as she pulled her and touched her thin face while her eyes were brimming with tears. “Serene, you lost weight.”

Her mouth was slightly open, and she wanted to talk, but a cold scoff rang in the silent living room.

She looked toward that direction. Master Samson looked at her with a mighty gaze. “You still remember how to come back!” She gently pursed her lips and kept quiet.

In the whole Rivers family, Master Samson had always disliked her. Because when Helena was pregnant with her, the doctor had accidentally identified her child as a son. Master Samson was happy to the core, yet instead a daughter was born.

Moreover, when Helena gave birth to her, she suffered severe bleeding and could not bear a child again. Hence, the Rivers family’s only male heir stopped at Benjamin.

The Rivers family had a large family business and needed someone to inherit it. Master Samson had intended for him to keep a mistress who'd bear a son for him before bringing the son back to the Rivers family and using money to make the woman leave Andalas.

Benjamin and Helena were classmates in high school and were engaged when they were in university. After they were married, they still had a wonderful relationship.

Towards Master Samson’s suggestion, Benjamin was disagreeable. Because of this matter, the two of them argued frequently and Master Samson had even ended up in the hospital due to his anger.
