Gabriel was playing cards with Joseph Lopez and a few other people he was familiar with at Golden Bay Club. The phone on the table kept ringing, but he turned a deaf ear.

Gabriel shot him a sidelong glance and felt that his gloating expression was very glaring. "You've been too idle these days. When are you going back to Jonan City?"

"What did I do to you in Andalas City?" asked Joseph as he stacked the cards. He remembered the engagement between the Rivers and Gilbert families a month ago and raised his eyebrows. "Ms. Serenity almost got engaged to Calvin Gilbert?"
