Seeing him explain it so earnestly, Seraphina's smile deepened.
"Alright, alright, not romance. Then what do you need my help with?"
"Work has been too busy lately, and I really don't have the energy to deal with this."
Gideon looked at her, his tone calm. "So I wanted to ask for your help. Just accompany me in and out for the next few days, so she doesn't get the wrong idea that I have any intention of developing a relationship with her."
Seraphina blinked.
"So, you want me to be your shield against unwanted admirers?"
"You could say that."
Gideon answered candidly.
Seraphina didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
To think that the dignified CEO of the Cole Group would actually have trouble with something like this.
But thinking about how Gideon had helped her so many times in the past, she couldn't well refuse now that he was finally asking for a favor.
"Alright. Since Mr. Cole asked personally, I'll help you out."
Gideon's lips curved into a faint smile. In reality, a daughter of the Yates family meant absolutely nothing to him, but she was useful for this situation.
"Then it's a deal. For the next few days, you'll have to ride in my car."
Seraphina paused.
"A few days?"
"Yes. If you're going to help, we might as well make it look convincing."
The man spoke with absolute seriousness, and Seraphina couldn't find a single reason to argue.
She took a deep breath and eventually just nodded.
"Fine, whatever you say."
The amusement in Gideon's eyes deepened. He carried her bag for her, and the two walked out side by side.
To her surprise, as soon as she stepped out of the gate, Seraphina saw someone completely unexpected.
Dominic.
The man stood not far away, his eyes bloodshot, looking incredibly haggard.
He looked as though he had been waiting for a long time.
