His Precious Love

Chapter 313 She Looks Like His First Love

Ready for what?

Rayna was wondering about his question when Curtis suddenly snapped his fingers on the stage.

Then, the spotlight went out and was replaced by a beam of colorful light.

The entire stage turned dreamy instantly, with the light enveloping the men on the stage.

The accompaniment rang out from the speakers and reverberated throughout the hall. Curtis lowered

his head and approached the microphone, holding a guitar pick in his left hand and plucking the guitar

strings. He sang along with the melody. “I found a love for me. Darling, just dive right in and follow my

lead.”

His deep voice was very magnetic, completely integrated with the accompaniment. His heavenly vocals

quelled the restlessness of the audience. Soon, only his singing echoed in the hall.

“But darling, just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own. And in your eyes, you’re holding mine.”

In their booth, Rayna rested her chin on her hands and stared at the man singing on the stage without

blinking. He looked like a professional singer in his thin turtleneck sweater and black trousers while

holding a guitar.

She pursed her lips and flashed him a smile.

She did not expect that the relentless and decisive Curtis in the business world could actually sing a

love song so well.

All four men on the stage sang the second verse together. “We are still kids, but we’re so in love.

Fighting against all odds. I know we’ll be all right this time. Darling, just hold my hand. Be my girl, I’ll be

your man. I see my future in your eyes.”

The four harmonized the song perfectly with accurate timbres.

Although it was not electronic music, the audience still enjoyed a classic love song. Some audience

members who knew the song even sang together under the stage.

After their performance, some young ladies in the audience shouted, “I do! I do!”

“Wow! I didn’t know Wyatt could sing a love song so well!” Jessica could not believe her ears. “If I didn’t

know them, I’d have thought they were a professional band performing onstage.” She stood up from

their private booth and waved excitedly at the stage. “That was amazing! Encore! Encore!”

Words could not even describe her excitement after she watched the performance.

Rayna and Jasmine exchanged a look and chuckled out loud.

“Since today is Christmas Eve, I’ll let this slide.” Rayna looked at Curtis on the stage and curved her

lips. “I’ll be generous today!”

Jasmine also smiled at that. “I’ll set up some rules for Theodore once we get home. The first rule will be

that he’s banned from singing in public in the future. I feel so uncomfortable to see so many ladies

expressing their interest in him!”

“I second that.”

Rayna agreed it was natural to cherish something or someone they liked and protect it from other

prying eyes.

The men on the stage and the audience under the stage were happy with the performance, but Gabriel

was the only one who felt miserable about it.

D*mn it! What did I do to deserve this? I’m already miserable to be here without a girlfriend, yet I’m

forced to see my bosses showing their love for their girlfriends! Also, Mr. Faymon even forced me to

sing with him on stage, and it’s a love song! I must be the most pitiful assistant ever!

He then swept his gaze at the bustling crowd under the stage. When he looked at the bar counter, he

froze for a moment.

He saw a young lady sitting on the stool with her legs crossed. She had an oval-shaped face that was

covered in delicate makeup, and her red lips were pursed tightly. There was something elegant and

quiet about her temperament. She was very attractive.

The young lady met Gabriel’s eyes boldly. Her beautiful eyes curved as she smiled and raised her wine

glass at him before downing the liquid in one gulp.

After placing the emptied wine glass on the counter, the young lady left the club.

Gabriel was still in a daze.

Given his years of experience working for Curtis, he often patronized classy clubs like this and had

seen countless beautiful ladies. Yet, the young lady from earlier left his heart thumping wildly, and his

palms were also covered in sweat.

She looked like Gabriel’s deskmate in elementary school, the girl he had a crush on until he was in

college but had never dared to confess his love to.

Is this how it feels to be in love?

After the performance, the audience was still mesmerized and kept cheering for them. They wanted the

men to perform another song.

Curtis ignored their cheers and put away his guitar.

Seeing Gabriel holding his bass guitar in a daze and that he did not seem to want to get off the stage,

he asked, “What’s the matter? Do you want to stay and continue performing for the audience?”

“What?” Gabriel snapped back to his senses. “Is the song over already?”

Curtis was rendered speechless.

After they got off the stage, electronic music could be heard again. The deejay and several girls in

adorable outfits went on the stage, livening up the atmosphere again.

“Babe, did I sing well?” Wyatt immediately snuggled up to Jessica. He looked like a puppy trying to

make its owner praise him. “I spent so much effort memorizing the lyrics and rhythm.”

Jessica kissed him on the cheek and said, “You were amazing! Your vocals are so good!”

Wyatt pointed at his mouth instead. “Babe, I want a kiss here!”

“Get out of here!” Jessica kicked him away, then looked at her phone. “It’s half past eleven already. Are

we spending our Christmas Eve here?”

“Let’s return to the hotel,” said Theodore. His gloomy expression suggested that he was already sick of

this place long ago.

If it weren’t for Jasmine, it was highly possible that he wouldn’t even have bothered coming.

“I second that! Let’s go back to the hotel!” Wyatt enthusiastically agreed to that idea. Then he swiftly

pulled Jessica into his arms. “Singing a song on stage is so tiring. I need to get some rest in the hotel.”

Jessica glanced at him. “I doubt that’s the only thing on your mind right now.”

“There’s nothing else.” Wyatt grinned widely. “It’s romantic to spend some time alone on Christmas

Eve. Why should we share such a romantic time with others? Babe, don’t you agree?”

“As if I’d believe you.”

“Since everyone agrees to go back to the hotel, let’s get going then.” Curtis and Rayna also agreed to

return to the hotel.

They packed their stuff and prepared to leave the club.

Gabriel had only brought a coat along, so he did not have anything to pack.

Remembering the young lady at the bar counter earlier and unable to stop thinking of her, he said to

Curtis, “Mr. Faymon, you guys can go ahead. I’ll settle the bill!”

Curtis hummed in response. He mulled over it for a while and said, “It’s a bit sad for you to travel back

to Norwal City on Christmas Eve. Go back in the morning.”

“No. Not at all. I love my job.” Gabriel smiled. However, he was thinking it would be even sadder for him

to go to the hotel with them only for him to stay in a single room.

After sending Curtis and the others off, Gabriel went to settle the bill for their private booth and drinks.

It took him less than two minutes to get everything done.

He then walked over to the bar counter and asked the bartender in Jetroinian, “I’m sorry. Do you know

the lady who sat here and drank earlier?”

The bartender shook his head. “I’m sorry. It’s my first time seeing that lady. I don’t know her.”

“Thank you.” Gabriel sounded a little disappointed.

On second thought, he figured it was possible that the lady had come to the club to have a drink and

immerse herself in a lively atmosphere on Christmas Eve.

I must be out of my mind to keep thinking about someone I’ve only seen once and want to know her

name.

It was still bustling inside, but Gabriel was not in the mood to extend his stay. He left the club.

Once he stepped out of the club, the cold air brushed past his face, making him shiver a little in the

cold.

The streets were covered by a layer of white snow. It looked stunning under the dimmed yellow street

lights. Gabriel stared at the scenery for a little longer before walking away.

He figured he could board the private plane to return to Norwal City later, seeing that there wasn’t a

snowstorm.

Gabriel dialed the pilot’s number, intending to let the pilot prepare the flight for him. Just as he placed

his phone next to his ear and waited for the pilot to answer the call, he heard someone calling out to

him from behind.

Did someone shout “wait a second”?

Gabriel was puzzled. He turned around and saw a woman in a light purple coat stepping on the snow

and walking over to him.

She was the young lady who was sitting by the bar counter at the club thirty minutes ago.
