Robert figures that with him personally getting down on his knees and admitting fault for his daughter, normal people would be too busy to stop it and then forgive Jennifer for what she's done.Jennifer had been punished anyway, there was no need to keep harping on it.Unfortunately, Serena was never normal.Serena looked at Robert with a smile that held a hint of threat, "Mr. Robert, I don't have time to witness your father-daughter love drama. If you want to protect her, hand over the bracelet that Samantha gave her initially. It will be better for both of us."Despite the seemingly pleasant smile, Serena's words carried an unsettling undertone.She had gone to investigate that day after hearing what her stepsister had said, and learned that her mother's bracelet had been given to Jeniffer, and now was the perfect opportunity to get it back.Immediately, sweat broke out from Robert's forehead, and his body, which was supposed to be kneeling down, gradually stood up."Jennifer, where
When Serena wakes up, she realizes that she's not in a hospital, but in the Eaglecrest Estate, Grandpa's residence, where the doctor says she just choked on the water, nothing serious, and her leg has been re-bandaged.Richard sits in shock in the living room with Robert and Greedella kneeling on the floor as they all wait for her to wake up.Serena coughed, when she heard what the servants had told her, a slight red coloring in her eyes."Is the wound on your back okay?"As she watched the doctor change Matthew's medication, she realized that his back was so badly injured.His back was also soaked when he carried her up in the pool."Hmm."Matthew closed his eyes weakly, his forehead furrowed imperceptibly a few times.The doctor applied the medicine and gave a few more instructions before leaving.He put his jacket back on, moving a little slowly."This is bracelet in the pool, it's fake."His voice didn't waver as he placed the bracelet in front of Serena.A trace of warmth crossed
"That picture? I just found it online." Serena replied carelessly.The corner of Matthew's eye twitched and even Richard coughed nonchalantly.So it was all made up, and they almost believed it.Richard got up, and went upstairs to rest, wanting to leave the two of them alone for a while.Serena waited for him to leave before slowly curling her lips, torturing her heart was the best, Greedella would be in pain from now on, even if she was in jail."Ho-Honey, you must have someone at the police station, right?"Her expectant eyes looked at Matthew, although it was not the first time she called this title, but she also felt a little shy, the tips of her ears were slightly red.Matthew pursed his lips.Damn it! He couldn't say no to her!"Uh-huh.""Then have your people keep a good lookout and don't let Greedella's husband visit her."Greedella's personality was bad, but she had probably spent all her good fortune in life on her marriage.Her husband was an honest man, through and throug
The next day, a specialist came to examined her leg.Serena hear the specialist say that it would be as good as new in two months, and her grip on the sheets loosened a little."Nathan, is Ella back yet?"Ella had suffered a defeat abroad this time, she was low to the ground."Well, back, the barometric pressure in the legal department is low, and the story is being reported outside, so everyone is thinking of ways to remedy the situation."Serena nodded and waited until Nathan was gone before she called Ella.Ella sat sullenly in her chair, her brow furrowed impatiently as she saw Serena's call come in."Yes?""Ella, it's Serena. I have some ideas about that lawsuit. We could invite the co..."When Ella heard her words, all she could feel was her throat burning like fire, and her eyes filled with ferocity.This lawsuit couldn't even be handled by her, so what made Serena so confident that she was still here to tell her what to do?"Serena, I haven't seen you in the department, nor ha
In the afternoon, Matthew arranged for someone to move Serena to his own place."I asked Nathan to arrange for someone to help you move to my place. It's not convenient for you to stay here."Upon hearing these words, Serena secretly breathed a sigh of relief.Matthew really knew his grandfather, and these days she had indeed been feeling uncomfortable.Though Richard was kind, he looked at her with far too much eagerness, glancing at her belly now and then, as if that was the way to get a great-grandchild.Not knowing how to cope if she continued to stay, Serena looked at Matthew with grateful eyes and said, "Thank you."Thinking that this move would provide a peaceful environment for recovery, she was caught off guard when trouble emerged again at the company.Ella directly sent out an email within the department, announcing Serena's dismissal, with the entire department copied.Most importantly, the lengthy email contained numerous personal attacks and emotional outbursts from Ella
"Oh, okay..."Serena didn't hesitate at all, maneuvering the wheelchair to move backward.However, at this moment, the wheelchair, for some reason, refused to cooperate. She struggled for several minutes, but it just kept spinning in place.She could feel Matthew's gaze becoming increasingly intense, like molten flames ready to engulf her entire body.Flustered, she dared not lift her head to meet his eyes, her face turning as red as a boiled shrimp.*Bang!*The door in front of her suddenly slammed shut, cutting off everything inside.Without that piercing gaze, Serena's tense body instantly relaxed.Matthew's anger was terrifying; it felt like his entire being was shrouded in pressure, making it difficult to move.She pursed her lips, realizing her hands were free to move again.She must have been so funny just now!It's like the limbs just looked like they were under a stasis spell.On the other side of the door, Matthew sat on the bed, his face so dark it seemed like water could d
Serena’s hands on her knees slowly clenching.Matthew paused; their lips were just the width of a paper apart, their breaths entwined.A slight forward movement, and they would be kissing.Serena's eyes slowly widened, her heart, after intense compression, surprisingly became calm.Matthew's gaze turned cool. He straightened up and stopped looking at her, offering no explanation for his actions.He went straight back to the study and closed the door.After closing the door, he glanced at the location of his heart.Throughout, the heartbeat remained steady. It seemed that the brief disturbance upon hearing her call him Honey was just an illusion.He pursed his lips, no longer dwelling on it, and opened the nearby computer to deal with affairs.Serena also returned to her room.Just as she was about to lie down on the bed, her phone began ringing frantically—Ella calling.She didn't want to answer, so she directly hung up.But the other side was persistent, as if not answering would kee
Samantha and Michelle's faces darkened."What do you mean, sis?" Serena curled her lips, raising her eyebrows."Isn't my meaning clear enough? I want you both out, now."The more indifferent Serena sounded, the more insulted Samantha and Michelle felt."Serena!"Michelle, red-faced with anger, angrily threw her bag at Serena.Fortunately, Serena dodged in time, avoiding a direct hit.The guards at the door couldn't stand by any longer and quickly restrained Samantha and Michelle."Throw them out, and make sure they never come in again," Serena ordered without mercy.The guards, excited, responded, "Yes, madam!"Michelle and Samantha were immediately carried out.Michelle, losing her composure, cursed shamelessly.She wore a dress, but the guards treated her like garbage, lifting her as if she were a sack."Put me down! Let me down! Do you know who I am?! FUCK!""Serena, you bitch! If you've angered me, that old woman in the hospital will have no life tonight!"Michelle's face was fill
With regards to their wedding, Serena and Matthew naturally had no problem with it, after all, Hayden was kind of what they had watched grow up.With the approval of the two, Hayden became very busy during this period of time, he asked Leona's opinion, and it turned out that the other party was not willing to go abroad to hold the wedding, so the place for the wedding turned out to be a church in Hustleburg.Leona took a leave from the research lab, saying that she wanted to rest for a few days, and as a bride, she naturally couldn't go to the wedding with a tired face.It was a big deal for a new businessman to marry the daughter of the Harrington family, and Hustleburg was instantly buzzing with excitement.This wedding was all designed by Hayden alone, not wanting anyone to get involved, from the process to the flowers needed for the ceremony, all of which were handpicked by himself.The decisive man personally do these things, always give people a kind of unreal feeling.The word
He monkeyed around and started fumbling with the buttons of Leona's dress.Leona frowned and held his hand, she wasn't interested in being right here."Hayden, go back and talk."Yet the man's voice came in her ear, inexplicably aggravated, "Go back?Going back would take another half hour."Leona couldn't hold back her laughter any longer and let out a "pfft".Seeing her in a good mood made Hayden bold, easing his seat down and catching her lips in a kiss.It was only when dealing with her that Hayden would act so much like a brat.Leona couldn't argue with him and could only sigh.It was all over, exactly twelve o'clock.Hayden was a little unfulfilled, but knew that he couldn't go on.Leona was too tired to say anything and just leaned back in the seat, half-closing her eyes.Hayden drove the car home, and when he got outside the apartment, instead of waking her up, he bent over and picked her up, heading upstairs.Leona did seem to have it a lot easier since the contract was drawn
Hearing Matthew say that made Serena feel slightly better.She actually had no intention of interfering with her daughter's choice, but as a mother, where was the reason not to love her daughter.She and Matthew had only been in the hospital room for half an hour before she was blown away by Nina, who said she didn't want to be force-fed dog food to eat on top of her allergies.Serena felt innocent, and before she left Matthew gently chided someone in the bed, "Next time be polite to your sister-in-law."Nina was so angry that she called Tara directly to complain, and there was always a gentle voice over there, instructing her not to get too emotional.Nina stayed here for a day, the door of the hospital room was quietly opened, and the tightly wrapped man revealed a pair of eyes, even alertly pulling the curtains closed.The lewd figure, needless to say, must be Rodney.Sure enough, Rodney took off his hat and looked at her red and swollen face painfully, "Did you check the allergens
Did she think that just because she knew Leona, she was really on the same starting line as Leona?If Leona moved out the Harrington family behind her, even a hundred Delia couldn't move a finger! Otis has figured out a lot of things after walking around in circles this time.Leona this time by his design, will be tricked, but also on the face of he is Hayden's friend, only did not do too much, if let Infinity Realm's Boss and Mrs. Boss know that their daughter outside the aggrieved, I am afraid that the consequences are more serious than now.Delia is a graduate of a prestigious university, more or less a little bit of arrogance, now hearing Otis say so, she stared wide-eyed, ''Isn't she, Leona, just a little bit better than me in terms of family history?What's the big deal? What are you so proud of, if I had that good family background, Hayden would like me too! She's just lucky."Serena had just passed by the ward door when she heard this.She paused in her steps and looked to Mat
Hayden pressed the answer button and only heard a few words from there before he froze in place.Otis had been knocked right into the resuscitation room by that bottle, saying that a splinter had lodged in his scalp and he needed surgery ASAP.His head buzzed with a few vague responses and he hung up.He pulled Leona into the car, "Leona , I'll take you back first."Leona sat in the passenger seat, quietly looking out and not talking to him.After arriving at the apartment, Hayden sent her into the door, as he turned around , Leona suddenly pulled his hand, "Hayden, remember what I told you before, if this friendship comes to a point where you should let go, don't hesitate."Hayden took a step forward, his body frozen in place.He turned and hugged her, "I actually believed you all along and didn't doubt the truth in your words, so it's hard for me because in that moment, I lost my best friend."Parting comes so suddenly in the adult world.Yes, while standing in the box, he took Leon
It was the first time Leona had ever been so angry, angry at the man's behavior, angry that he was Hayden's friend.She still had half the bottle cupped in her hand and wanted to just poke the glass slag into him, but she couldn't be so impulsive.She gave Otis, who was still struggling, a cold look and clasped her hands slightly as she held the door to the compartment open and waited for the police to arrive.The police came quickly, and following them was Hayden.Hayden hadn't expected this to be the case in the box, and he froze for a moment, before asking, "Leona, what's wrong?"Leona was just about to speak when Otis, who had been bored for a long time, jumped the gun, "Sister Leona, you don't have to humiliate us in this way if you don't like Delia and I. I'll pay Hayden back the five million dollars, I didn't mean to drag him down."Leona had grown up in the Harrington household, and her friends had all sat upright, and none of them had ever been so calmly upside down as Otis.
When a man eats, his movements are slow and unhurried, it's really eye-pleasing to look at.Tim, with this kind of big personality, felt a little embarrassed."Uncle, this is your first time in Hustleburg, right, there are other places in Hustleburg that are very pretty."As soon as he finished his words, an assistant-looking person ran not far away and attached himself to the man's ear and said something.The man got up and straightened his sleeve, "Thanks for the hospitality, if we meet again, I'll buy you guys."Leona and Godfery hadn't spoken since the beginning, but he knew exactly how many people were around.Tim stood up in a hurry and held one of his hands, "Let me help you over."For his attentiveness, the assistants standing by the side all laughed, "Although Mr. can't see with his eyes, his heart is penetrating, he's been here before around here, and he remembers all the roads."Tim embarrassedly put down his hand and touched his head, "This way, then uncle goodbye."Watchi
This was probably the first time Leona had offered to say yes to taking him out, and Hayden had been waiting for this opportunity for far too long.His heart instantly caught fire and he nodded solemnly.He rushed off to the place he'd agreed to go with Otis, a park that used to be a favorite haunt of the two in high school.Back then the park still had a fountain and was surrounded by young couples out on dates from school.He had just gotten there when he saw Otis sitting on the bench they used to sit on with a case of beer at his feet.Hayden walked over and sat down beside him, "What brings you here all of a sudden?"Otis pointed to his feet and smiled faintly, "You should have gone to a lot of trouble to fish me out this time, I don't know how to thank you.""Otis, you're my friend.""Hayden, there's a lot I want to say to you."Otis lowered his eyes and opened a can of beer, "Sit down."Hayden sat down beside him and Otis started with some funny stuff that happened in high schoo
Hayden didn't know how to respond to his best friend's questioning.They went straight to the hospital and when the doctor examined them, he talked about what happened to Delia in the past few days.Otis held Delia's hand and started crying while Delia's eyes kept resting on Hayden's.Hayden's brain hurt, both of the people here were his best friends at one time, but this time it seemed like he was on the verge of losing them.Back in high school, he and Otis used to sit on the playground from time to time drinking beer and coke and talking about their dreams at that age, and Otis would always tease him with Leona.Neither had realized that the adult world would be filled with so much hopelessness, despair.Otis cried for a while and fed Delia water.Delia had no strength in her body and could only take a few slow sips right from his hand.Otis' eyes instantly turned red, when had he ever seen Delia like this.Delia had always followed them around like a tomboy, we all played soccer t
