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..." The surrounding onlooker

    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

    Serena frowned and looked at him with questioning eyes.Nathan saw her doubt and introduced himself with a smile, "Madam, I'm Nathan, the assistant to the president of this company. Boss asked me to come and take you to the legal department."Serena instantly realized that her boss was that man!A dawning smile immediately appeared on her face as she nodded slightly to Nathan and replied, "Good morning, Nathan""Let me show you over, your coworkers are already waiting for you."Serena noddedand was led by Nathan into the renowned legal department.With a gracious demeanor, Serena offered a slight bow and spoke sincerely, "My name is Serena...."The department rarely saw new arrivals, and when such a beautiful one appeared, the male employees couldn't help but be captivated.Some colleagues enthusiastically welcomed her, but a few other colleagues regarded her with less than welcoming eyes."Welcome!""Feel free to ask me any questions you have!"The office was instantly buzzing with a

    Serena sighed, seemingly speaking to herself, "I've always wondered what you would look like."Matthew pursed his lips, eager to hear more.However, Serena offered only a brief statement before falling silent, her gaze returning to the file on the table.Matthew's thoughts briefly went blank.What does she mean by that?Was she disappointed with his appearance?"I didn't want to keep it from you. I knew you didn't care about me, so there was no need to explain," Matthew explained.The two aren't talking about the same things, but inexplicably they can also converse...Serena stood up to pour a glass of water for Matthew."Boss, I am not blame you. You really don't have to explain yourself to me.""Boss, please have some water," she offered.Matthew raised his gaze, looking directly at her. "You call me boss?"A wry smile tugged at the corner of Serena's mouth.What does he mean? Isn't that what Nathan calls him?Matthew took the glass, his fingertips grazing it twice.He spoke softly,

    Edward hesitated for a moment, standing nearby.Richard's eyes glared at him, "Are you deaf?"Edward glanced at Matthew, who remained silent and composed.Sighing, Edward ordered someone to put the whip aside."Sir, are you sure about this..."Matthew's a adult. This isn't going to solve anything at all."Sure about what? I'm sure going to educate my grandson on what makes a real man!"Matthew stood up, his expression cold."Grandpa, even if you whip me, I still want a divorce."Richard was incensed, his breathing heavy, and he pointed his trembling finger outside, "Kneel! Edward,my whip!"Matthew offered no resistance and obediently knelt on the floor.Edward gripped the whip and hesitated for a moment, but Richard's icy glare pushed him to swing the whip.*Snap! Snap!*Edward lashed Matthew with precision, avoiding vital areas, but ensuring that the blows broke the skin.Blood soon began to seep from Matthew's back.He didn't flinch, and the beads of sweat on his forehead merged int

    Upon arriving at the hospital, she noticed that it was the same hospital where her grandmother was being treated.The urgency of the situation was evident from Nathan's worried expression and his brisk pace.Serena didn't have time to think about it. She hoped to discuss her thoughts on the trial with him, it just so happens that now is the time!As they entered the hospital room, she saw that man, who appeared pale, sitting up with a document in his hand.Matthew looked up slowly when he heard the door open, his gaze settling on Serena."Boss," Serena greeted him with a polite nod, walking over to his hospital bed and taking a seat.Nathan, who had been escorting Serena, observed the interaction between the two, noting the sudden coldness in Serena's demeanor towards boss.What happened? Hadn't the two of them gotten along well before?He decided to give them some privacy and discreetly closed the door.Matthew put aside the papers he had been examining and cleared his throat.His fac

    As Serena mulled over the shocking revelation about Matthew's identity, her mind raced.Nobody would expected the man rumored to be seriously ill to be the mastermind behind Infinity Realm..She was left momentarily speechless.Matthew, lying on the hospital bed, slowly closed his eyes, his expression masked in a cold demeanor.Finally, after some time, Serena summoned the courage to sign the document, though her hand trembled slightly.She handed it to the waiting doctor, who promptly left the room.However, Serena still found herself in an awkward position.That night when she hugged him and kept saying she wanted to be sugar mommy came back to haunt her, oh my!That's just quite the same as cheating on her husband in front of him isn't it?Serena just felt her scalp tingle!She wanted to address him but struggled to find the right words.With impatience creeping into his voice, Matthew said, "You can go now."Serena tried to speak, attempting to call him Matthew, but she stumbled o

    Just now, while she was brooding here, Serena thought a lot about how she was going to make this man suffer, how she was going to make him pay for Mary's death.She thought of one idea after another and finally vetoed one after another."Matthew, do you have any idea how obnoxious you are?"She said, looking up with red eyes and biting her lip.Matthew said nothing and raised a hand to dry the fluffy drizzle from her hair.Serena couldn't bear the depth of his tenderness like that.She shuddered and slapped his hand away, covered her face and began to cry, sorry to Mary, sorry to everyone.She'd never been in such pain, like a wound exposed to the air, blood slowly draining, muscles slowly rotting, every second that passed seemed like a knife cutting through bone.Guilt and panic tortured her heart at all times, lynching her and tearing away flesh and bone marrow piece by piece.Matthew frowned and bent down to take her in his arms, "Serena, what's wrong with you?"He asked cautiously

    After exhaling a ring of smoke, his mind suddenly remembered what the woman had just said, "Jordan, do you love me?"Somehow, the person who said those words had suddenly become Serena.Jordan's eyes were confused, and it wasn't until his hand hurt that he looked down and realized that the smoke had burned down to where his fingers were.He stubbed out his cigarette and stared out the window in disbelief.The years had flown by and he had had many women lie in his arms and ask him if he loved them with a look of infatuation and devotion, but how ridiculous that the woman he loved the most had never asked that question.Jordan curled the corners of his mouth, pulled out his cell phone to check the time, and walked out of the room.After hopping into the convertible, he hit the gas and headed straight for Pines Ridge.Coincidentally, Serena came out of the house, saw the car parked next to her, and subconsciously had to swerve to avoid it.But Jordan was quick, getting out of the car an

    But the two men's voices never came from behind her, and the corners of her mouth tickled mockingly, no longer curious what they would say, and quickening her own pace.Once she was gone, Nathan spoke again."Boss, I didn't expect Wilbur to betray us, I treated him like my best brother, and he even ......"It was hard to hide the sadness in Nathan's voice and his forehead was tired.Wilbur disappeared for three years, he and Boss are no fools, both are a little suspicious, so they began to investigate what happened to Wilbur in the past three years.Wilbur was his brother, but as long as it was Boss, he had to find out the details.But when you look into it that much, it is actually something that happened three years ago.Three years ago, it was because Wilbur leaked their location that they were ambushed.After checking this out, Boss rushed over in the night and rearranged all the forces in the shadows, just for fear of being taken out of their hideout, after all, Wilbur had always

    She asked herself, she was not a kind person, but Wilbur had saved his life at least once, and he was his brother, and he had already knelt down, so sincere and open, that he could not spare his life?If it had been her, she would have kept Wilbur alive instead of just blowing his head off and giving him no chance to live.Now that he talked so easily about sending Wilbur out of the country, it was obvious that it was really cruel.Serena's heart cooled as she became even more skeptical of the secret Wilbur and Matthew were talking about.She had overheard Wilbur's words earlier, and she had been on the defensive against him as a person, but now that she thought about it, Wilbur didn't know that she was hiding in the dark at that time, so how could he have intentionally acted out for her?Not to mention that he had just lost his life. Would a person use his life to put on a show?Was it worth it? What did he get out of it?With these

    He smelled of dust and seemed to have been out recently.The corners of Wilbur's mouth turned up, the bottoms of his eyes slightly scarlet."Boss, I think it's time Madam knew these truths.""And what did you say to her?"Accompanying Matthew's grim voice was the sound of a bullet being loaded, and with a single tick of his fingertip, Wilbur would be lifeless.Wilbur looked up, not in the least intimidated by the muzzle of the gun pressed against his head, but with a cheerful expression on his face."It's a shame Madam isn't here, or she'd know how desperate the men she cares for really are."Matthew's face immediately grimaced and his eyes narrowed."Boss, all the happiness you have now is stolen, do you think Madam will stay by your side when she finds out about all this? You'll be a sinner by then.""My business is not your business.""I just feel sorry for Madam."Matthew ticked the corner of his mouth

    "I have raised you for so many years! Not for you to step into a man's trap with one unproductive foot, if you mess with him again, I'll have him blocked tomorrow!""Don't you dare! If you block him, I'll tell everyone in Hustleburg what you did, and let them know that Mr. Greg of Infinity Realm forced himself on a woman with a group of people! Humiliated someone to death!!!""Pop!"Another hard slap and Gloria's face was deflected with a somewhat contemptuous mouth hook.Greg's face turned red and he snapped, "What are you babbling about?!"Gloria wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, her eyes filled with sharp sarcasm."I already knew it, don't pretend, you said drunken things when you were drunk, and said that the woman cried so sadly before she died, but you all didn't have a soft heart, and tortured her to death alive, dad, my character is like you, people say there is a father like you, you are such a no-good person, how can I be better!"Greg couldn't get a word out, he

    Serena couldn't care less about Daniel and rushed to say quietly, "I'm here Scarlett, just hang in there."Scarlett smiled to herself, no blood on her face, "Daniel, can you go out first?"Her words were full of mockery, even the bottom of her eyes were filled with mockery.Daniel stiffened and stood up, taking a step toward the door.It was only a moment after the door closed that Scarlett bit her lip, her hand squeezing the sheet tightly."Serena, I'm dying.""No way!!!"Serena, filled with fear, held her hand in place to keep from hurting herself.Scarlett turned her head with difficulty and looked at her guiltily."Serena, the only person in this world I've ever apologized to is you, I don't deserve a tombstone, so when I die, donate all my organs, and burn what's left in a fire, scatter the ashes by the side of the road, don't go home, don't go to the grave, don't reincarnate, and better yet, the soul should be scattered so that it can wash away the sins in my body, and also so t

    Serena's excitement slowly faded as her breathing began to slow and her hands began to squeeze and squeeze harder."Husband?"She rubbed her eyes, and the next thing she knew, she was flattened out in a recliner.Matthew kissed her gently, cupping the back of her head and undoing her buttons one by one with his mouth.Serena's face flushed and she looked away, "What are you doing?"Gasping for breath, Matthew scooped her into a hug, desperately trying to suppress the emotions that were about to spill out."Do you want to stay here or go to your room?"Serena tilted her head slightly, as if she didn't understand what he meant.Matthew couldn't hold back any longer and scooped her up in a hug and headed back to the bedroom.The servant, seeing them head on, hastily lowered his eyes and looked at them.Serena had been drinking and it was coming back to her, and just after she was tucked into bed, she could no longer see much of anything.Just to lean against him and get some warmth from

    Matthew carried on, not noticing her bend, and bubbles continued to boil in his heart at the thought of her waiting for him outside.After dinner, the two of them sat on the couch watching TV like a normal young couple.Serena opened her mouth, still unable to resist saying something about Wilbur, but just as her lips opened, Nathan walked in from outside."Boss, there's another impromptu meeting you need to handle."Matthew's brow furrowed in obvious exhaustion, and he braced himself to get up when he heard the words.But after a few steps he turned his head and smiled at Serena, "I'll be done by twelve and then I'll take you to the fireworks."Serena's heart fluttered instantly and her mind grew much warmer.It was Mary's first New Year without her, and she thought she would have a lonely time, not realizing that this man would take care of her feelings in every way, take her shopping for New Year's Eve, and even think of going to the fireworks with her.She lowered her eyes, sudden
