Tara was seething with anger, her chest heaving as she wished she could confront Richard immediately and get rid of this shameless woman right away.However, she knew that even she was in no position to question Richard's decision.She would have to wait for him to return to address the situation.Serena was already running a fever, and the stone floor's temperature seemed to intensify the heat, making it feel like it could cook a person alive.But she couldn't argue, it would only enrage Tara more.She kept her head down and her posture remained upright.Inside the house, Tara glanced at Serena with impatience and walked away, leaving her to endure the punishment alone.Serena knelt for three hours, the intense sun and the hot stone taking a toll on her.Heavy shadows began to cloud her vision, and she felt like she was on the brink of collapse.No one dared to help her, no one even brought her water.Until three o'clock in the afternoon, Nina returned home and was shocked to find Se

Harrington Grand Estate was steeped in a quiet atmosphere, with only the diligent servants bustling about.Serena inquired and learned that it was Mr. Richard's return that had drawn everyone to the airport, explaining that man sudden departure.Serena was finally free to stay here for a while, without having to deal with the "enemy".Until 7:00 p.m., when a phone call came in."Girl, I'm Matthew's grandpa." Richard's tone was surprisingly affectionate, which left Serena a bit perplexed since she didn't know him very well."I'm back late, so I won't go over for dinner with tonight. When the jet lag wears off, I'll make sure to invite you myself. You're my choose one, and if you ever feel wronged in this house, be sure to let me know."Richard's voice was genuinely caring, and Serena could sense his joy through the phone.Oddly, her mood lifted as well.Richard's demeanor reminded her of her late grandfather, a cherished memory from the past."Take care, Grandpa," Serena responded.Ric

The following evening.Serena attended the event and soon realized that Nina's description had not done justice to the grandeur of the occasion.The room was filled with elegantly dressed guests engaged in mingling and exchanging compliments.Serena was clad in the gown gifted to her by Nina, with her hair elegantly arranged and the eye-catching hairpin presented by Richard.Her natural beauty was enhanced only by a touch of lipstick, a rare departure from her usual makeup-free style.The lipstick surprisingly complemented her skin tone, creating a unique and pristine appearance amidst the heavily made-up women in the room.Serena's clean and elegant look made her stand out among the crowd.Michelle's face froze as she caught sight of Serena.She had managed to secure an invitation for this event, hoping to expose her daughter, Samantha, to a world of elegance and opulence.However, Serena's presence immediately shattered her plans."Is that Serena?!" Samantha's eyes welled up with je

Catherine's voice reverberated through the room, capturing the full attention of all those present.The commotion had everyone's eyes fixed on the unfolding scene.Unfamiliar with Serena's identity, the attendees were under the impression that an uninvited interloper had infiltrated the event.This kind of incident occurred annually when individuals sought to seize the opportunity to mingle with the wealthy elite.Meanwhile, Evelyn, who had been engrossed in conversation with others, had observed the commotion and felt compelled to intervene as the event's host.As her eyes landed on Serena, her pupils constricted in disbelief."Why are you here?!"This Harringtons gathering had been purposefully low-key, with little fanfare within high society.Consequently, Evelyn was unaware of Serena's association with the Harrington family, as Catherine had deliberately kept her in the dark.She had assumed that Serena's presence would go unnoticed, no one would recognize her anyway!"Auntie."C

The crowd automatically parted, and the elderly man with a walking stick slowly approached with Nina's assistance.His gaze pierced through the room like a sharp blade, locking onto Evelyn.His eagle-like eyes, filled with an unwavering determination, seemed to lower the room's temperature by several degrees, making everyone feel as if a heavy weight pressed down on their heads.Evelyn took a step back, her face paling.Mr. Richard?Wasn't he supposed to be abroad?When had he returned?Seeing his cherished granddaughter-in-law being mistreated in such a way!Did they really think the Harrington family had no one?*Da-da*Richard declared, grounding his cane with authority and a commanding voice."Serena, come over here. I’d like to see who DARES to eject you today,"The few bodyguards who had initially intended to remove Serena hesitated and avoided eye contact.Evelyn's throat was dry, and her fingers involuntarily clenched."Mr. Richard, Miss Serena was..."

Jordan, who had been lurking in the crowd to enjoy the spectacle, was suddenly exposed by Richard's outburst.He put down his wine glass, and the playful smile on his face turned somewhat serious."Grandpa," he called out with feigned innocence, raising his right hand. "I swear I just arrived."Actually, he had been present from the beginning, But he needed not to step in. Serena was great.Just by looking at it from afar just now, he could tell that this girl Grandpa chose was special, he must admit that he was a little envious of Matthew, if she was his wife..."Grandpa, don't worry! I won't be letting anyone bully our family! Leave the rest to me!" Jordan stated righteously.Serena glanced at Jordan briefly before shifting her gaze away.Hadn't this man witnessed everything from the beginning?He had even seemed to enjoy watching the drama unfold when Catherine dropped the hairpin.She narrowed her eyes but said nothing.Jordan, however, seemed pleased with Serena's response.He wa

Serena refrained from identifying Samantha as her sister, merely stating her whole name.Samantha's countenance darkened considerably, and she extended her hand to introduce herself, saying,"Hello, Mr. Jordan, I'm Serena's sister. My name is Samantha."Jordan withheld his own hand, and his gaze lightly scanned Samantha's face.He bluntly remarked, "You two aren't truly sisters, are you?"Despite the inquiry, his tone remained unequivocal.Samantha's complexion darkened further, and she retorted, "We're half-sisters.""Well, then my sister-in-law's mother must be a knockout."This statement simply means that it's a blunt way of saying that Samantha is ugly.Jordan's sarcasm was acerbic, inflicting a painful blow to Samantha's pride.Samantha's eyes welled with tears, and she bit her lip, unable to respond.Samantha still young and deeply concerned about her appearance.How could she stand such mockery?She hastily devised an excuse and made her way over to Michelle.With a cup of red

Soonly, Richard's car had arrived at Infinity Realm Inc.His last thread of sanity was all that kept him from kicking open the office door in front of him."Matthew Harrington!" he shouted, calling someone by name to vent his anger.His demeanor clearly showed his anger.Inside the office, it was silent, except for Nathan, who was diligently working."Sir, boss just left for an out-of-town meeting, and we're uncertain about when he'll return," Nathan informed Richard.Richard's anger felt like a punch into soft cotton.Obviously, Matthew had guessed he was coming and was the first to duck out of the way.Richard clenched his teeth and took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down. He reminded himself that he would have another opportunity to confront Matthew."You tell him! He's done!" He said before slamming the door angrily and leaving.Matthew, having waited until Richard was gone, finally emerged from the lounge.His expression was clouded as he removed his jacket and began to b

"I know, I'll get right back to the Mercenaries, Maxwell, what happens after we find Matthew? I kill him?""Byron, I told you, I'll take care of him myself."Byron didn't retort anymore and sighed, "Are you in Hustleburg right now?"Being able to jump into the sea after Serena showed the weight of that woman in his heart.He was still alive at this moment, so he must have gone to look for Serena in the first place."Yes, the mercenary club will be handed over to you for now, I want Matthew to live."Byron didn't have any doubts and immediately set off with Vincent, leaving Hustleburg.Serena hung up the phone, her back already covered in sweat.She took a sip of water and went to Matthew's study to finish going through the pieces that were piling up.It was useless for her to worry here, if Byron believed her, he would search Matthew's whereabouts with all his might, she just had to wait for news.And while waiting for news, deal with Infinity Realm in the meantime.Later that night,

That signature at the end of the piece was calm and strong, just like his nature.Serena pushed the piece away in exasperation without looking at it again or signing it.After taking care of the piece, she turned on the news and found that the person who had been talked about the most lately was Sophie.The last time Sophie had encouraged Roger to come after her and tried to get away with it, no way.But the news wasn't about Sophie's bad news, instead it was praising her, saying she was a woman of honor.And she deserved it?"Nathan, have someone go and beat Roger up again, it looks like Sophie has stabilized Roger again."Roger was a total loser and Sophie was a goddess in many people's hearts.Roger may be angry, but with a few coaxing words from Sophie, he has to be obediently trapped, a veritable lickspittle.Sophie's recent life can be said to be smooth, Winters Group development is getting better and better, her position is considered to be completely stabilized.Nathan nodded

"Pull yourself together?"Serena's voice trailed off, her eyes scarlet, "Will Matthew come back if I pull myself together? Whatever Lorraine's intentions are, I'm going to make her pay for all of this."Blair's body shuddered, taken aback by the look in her eyes.But at the same time he felt relieved, this was the Serena he knew, "Get well, I've informed Judy and Scarlett, let them keep you company in the meantime."Speaking of Judy, his tone was softer and vaguely exasperated.Judy left that night without a second thought, he had thought that the other party had left Hustleburg for good, but he didn't realize that she had applied for a job as a college teacher and had resumed her teaching career.As long as she was still in Hustleburg, at least his heart wasn't so empty.Serena glanced down at her wrist and leaned back against the bed to close her eyes.Her mind still hurt, and mind control, as distinct from physical pain, could make a person completely lose themselves.She took a ti

The doctor's hands shook with fear at the sight of such a deep gash, shivering as he secured this wrist with a brace and began to stitch.Serena didn't say a word, she couldn't even feel the needle between the flesh anymore.She kept her eyes open and stared blankly at the ceiling.The stitching process went on for over an hour, and the doctor was already sweating profusely.After carefully sterilizing it, he breathed a sigh of relief.Serena had fallen asleep by now, her forehead covered in sweat.Blair sent the maid in to change her while he and Nathan stood guard at the door.Only when they saw the maid come out did they re-enter the bedroom.If it wasn't for Serena's chest still heaving slightly, they would have thought she was dead.Nathan's heart was in a very bad place and he spoke in a hoarse voice, "So how do we get back to normal?"Blair was anxious and hated to turn around in place, "I don't know, Serena went to Vitec Technologies last time, I heard that she was locked in t

The darkness became long, and all the evil, the hope, all of it dissipated.Nathan didn't know what was happening behind him, he couldn't hear anything but the sharp sound of a gunshot.It was a long run before he gasped and stopped, taking a few others with him and boarding the plane.With Matthew staying there, the others didn't come after them, and it wasn't until the moment the plane took off that Nathan pulled out the ring and looked at it.He no longer knew where it was, and he didn't dare wonder what Boss had been through.The gunshot must have come from Boss; he'd been killed, or killed himself, he didn't know.Back in Pines Ridge, the sky was foggy and the rain was still pouring down.Their party was in a sorry state, and standing at the front door of Pines Ridge, he caught a glimpse of Blair leaning against a pillar, smoking."Where's Matthew?"Blair's voice trailed off as he tossed his cigarette into a side trash can.Nathan didn't dare meet his eyes and could only hang his

Noticing her lax pupils, Blair slashed directly at the back of her neck.Serena only felt a sharp pain coming from the back of her head and fainted.Blair held her up, his brows knitted tightly as he twisted his head to look at Ida and Jo, "Call the doctor."The doctor came quickly and gave Serena a full body checkup and finally prescribed some tranquilizers.Blair looked at the woman slipping into a coma with a horrible grimace on his face.Serena's state today was off, like someone who had been pushed to the brink, with devastation written all over her face.This was definitely not the Serena he knew, he took out his cell phone and made a call to Matthew.Matthew was already in Las Vegas, but the dance here hadn't taken place yet, and he was staying at the hotel for the time being.He had just gotten out of the bathroom when his cell phone rang, it was Blair.Before he left, he had asked Blair to help take care of Serena.Serena has been in a bad mood lately, her eyes always look li

Hearing her say that, Jordan had no more qualms.Serena hung up the phone and lay back down on the bed.She touched the dagger under her pillow and drew it out, gazing at it intently.She really wanted to slit her wrist with this dagger, draining all the blood little by little so that she would feel better.She had just placed the dagger on her wrist when there was a knock at the door, she was startled and the dagger in her hand instantly fell to the floor with a crisp sound."Madam, what's wrong with you?"Ida asked anxiously from the doorway, probably hearing the sounds from inside and thinking something had happened to her.Serena slowly closed her eyes, pulled the ring off her finger and threw it down the window.A great sadness suddenly swept over her, causing her to cover the position of her heart as if she was about to lose her breath.After a long time, she took a deep breath and wiped the tears from her eyes before she opened the door to her room."Go get Jo."She went to Mat

Jordan froze, letting go of the woman in his arms and pointing to the door, signaling the two to get out.Only after both beauties were gone from the area did he raise an eyebrow, "Serena, do you realize what you're saying?"He no longer called her but Serena."I know, didn't you ask me earlier if I wanted to team up with you? I promise."Jordan's brows tightened, Serena and Matthew's relationship didn't seem to have gotten this far, why did she suddenly want Matthew dead?And from the tone of voice, the hatred wasn't normally deep."How do I know you're not lying to me Serena, I'm afraid to trust you.""Matthew is going to Harrington's family headquarters in the near future, you team up with me, I'll tell you his route, I want him to never come back."Matthew was going to Harrington's family headquarters?Jordan's eyes flashed, maybe he should trust this woman for once, "Fine, you tell me his route, I'll have someone intercept it, Serena, don't regret it."Serena bowed her head, her

Lorraine didn't answer her straight away whether she was or wasn't, she opened the door to the side of the car and got in.It was only when the window was about to close that she spoke, "What you want to do with it is your business, from the moment Maxwell started caring about you I knew that sooner or later he would have to pay for everything he had done."Serena didn't respond until the car drove away, then she bent over and whacked her knee.She got into her own car and, somewhat deflated, leaned her back back and closed her eyes.She'd actually gotten a bad feeling in her mind when Matthew had touched her knuckles, and now it was just a premonition that was being sat upon.Back in Pines Ridge, her legs felt as if they weighed a thousand pounds, and her stomach had been flooded with nausea.The more she suspected, the more the sickening feeling grew.She went upstairs and curled up in her own bed, thinking about Maxwell and really not having any other thoughts than the disgust that
