A waiter walked over with a glass of champagne and Gabriel and Serenity each took a glass. Gabriel looked back at President Wilbur with his dark eyes and calmly said, "President Wilbur, you're quite the jokester. It's already nighttime, so why would the sun be rising now?"
President Wilbur studied Serenity from the corner of his eyes and smiled. "President Jones, aren't you going to introduce your companion?"
Gabriel frankly said, "This is Serenity, my female companion tonight."
Most in the world of business had a shrewd mind, and President Wilbur was no different. Curiosity got the better of him as he started to wonder about the relationship between the two as he politely greeted Serenity.
"Miss Serenity, President Jones never brings a female companion to a banquet. To be the first one to get his attention, you must count your lucky stars."
