In the hospital corridor, the atmosphere was like ice.Serena felt her chest tighten and wondered how this sudden news would change her life."Are you deaf? I'm telling you again! THE WEDDING is in the THREE DAYS later!"The women yelling angrily was Michelle, Serena's stepmother.She stood there with distant and disgusted expression even on her exquisitely made-up face, her voice full of ruthlessness and mockery, looking very impatiently at the quiet and silent young woman in front of her.Serena froze in place with her head down, the news like a pot of cold water suddenly poured over her head, catching her off guard.She slowly looked up at the hideous woman in front of her and snapped softly,"Me?"Faced with Serena's insensitivity, Michelle couldn't hide her displeasure.She scowled as if Serena was a lowly, insignificant person, her words filled with coldness and sarcasm,"Don't you dare put on a pity face! Thank your good father for that! Otherwise you wouldn't have been able to
The car navigated through half of the city and soon arrived at the Harrington family's residence, known as the Harrington Grand Estate.The gates swung open, and the grand mansion loomed majestically within, serving as the abode of some of the most influential figures in Hustleburg.It was a place of opulence and excitement, held in high esteem, yet also renowned for its cold and unforgiving ambiance.For Serena, it was akin to moving from one kind of torment to another.As she drove around the expansive garden, she noticed a sleek black Bentley parked not far away.The occupant of the Bentley remained still, but the driver promptly exited and approached it with an air of respect.Serena couldn't help but cast a curious glance at the slowly lowering car window, revealing the man's side profile.His presence exuded a regal aura, his impeccably tailored suit lacking even the slightest wrinkle. His handsome and aloof side profile appeared sharply defined amid the interplay of light and s
Infinity Realm Inc.The top-floor office exuded an icy chill, and Matthew's eyes displayed emotions hidden from the onlookers."Is this the best solution you could devise after two hours of deliberation?"His voice was deep, frigid, and commanding, and his furrowed brows made the few people in front of him break out in cold sweat."Boss, we will work diligently to come up with a flawless solution as soon as possible."Several individuals wiped the sweat from their foreheads, their lips parched."Tomorrow at the latest, get out."Matthew massaged his forehead, inexplicable irritation gnawing at his heart.A few of them wished they had wings to escape the office immediately.The office hasn't been quiet for long, the mobile phone in Matthew’s pocket rang, there was no need to wonder who was on the other end of the line."Grandpa," he answered meekly after pressing the answer button."Where are you now?" Richard's voice was gruff, tinged with irritation."I'm at the company.""The compa
Matthew hesitated for a brief moment, a rare phenomenon for a man who had always been cold, unwavering, and unyielding.He thought he was the only one who didn't care about this marriage, he now realized that this woman was just as uninterested as he was, and that she had married into it without even knowing who her husband was from beginning to end.For the first time in his life, With an uncharacteristic hint of hesitation, Matthew responded, "Sure."Serena nodded, and, without questioning the man's identity, leaned in to sign the document.In Serena's limited knowledge, all she knew was that she had married a man who was transparent to the entire family, powerless, and had grown up outside to recover from his illness.The man before her was not only healthy, and he had a compelling aura that could only be seen in someone with power.If this was Matthew, how could he have married her? She surmised that he might be a cousin of her husband.Serena's skin was very good, her face had a
The morning of the next day.Serena didn't realize she'd been misunderstood again, and when she sat down at the table in the morning, she noticed that Nina's eyes were swollen beyond recognition, and the shadows under her eyes couldn't even be covered by concealer.Out of politeness, she asked caringly, "Are you okay?"Nina didn't appreciate it." Who do you think you are to me? My sister-in-law? I'm telling you, don't be delusional! Take that time to care for your own sister!"Her sister? Was she referring to Samantha?Seeing Serena frown and remain silent, Nina picked up her newly purchased Hermes bag and added with a sense of pride, "I SLAPPED her yesterday! Hmph, she dared to take the bag from me! Who does she think she is! Does she really think her sister great just because she’s married to my brother? The next time I see her, I'll slap her again! Tell her to watch her step!"In reality, it was Samantha who had insulted her brother, and she couldn't resist giving her a taste of
Hustleburg General HospitalUpon arriving at the hospital, Serena made her way to the cashier's desk, eager to pay her grandmother's medical bills using the black card."Hi, I'm here to pay the bill. Here's the patient ID and information." Serena said, her voice trembling with a mix of anxiety and hope. Her grandmother's health was finally secure.The man looked at the card in her hand and froze for a second, then looked up at her, frowning, some shock in his eyes.Serena asked with caution, "Sir, is there a problem?"She couldn't bear any more surprises.In response to her query, the man seemed to regain his composure and took the documents from Serena's hand, shaking his head. "No, ma'am. I'll process this for you right away."He quickly handled the payment and related paperwork, ensuring the bill was settled."Madam, here are your items. We've upgraded your family to a VIP room, and I'll arrange for a nurse to transfer you to the new room."A VIP room?Serena froze in shock.She had
*DING BELL*Serena, basking in the sun, was awakened by the ringing of her cell phone. In a daze, she picked up the call and mumbled, "Hello."The voice on the other end introduced herself,"Excuse me, are you Serena H? I'm the HR of Infinity Realm Inc."Her drowsiness vanished instantly, and she responded more alertly, "Yes, I'm Serena."The voice on the other end continued with a polite tone, "I am honored to inform you that you have passed the company's preliminary examination. I would like to make an appointment for you to come to the company for an interview at 2pm this afternoon. Do you have time?"Excitement surged through Serena as she replied eagerly, "Sure! I'll be on time!"After hanging up, she quickly hailed a cab and headed to the interview location, not wanting to lose a second.Arriving early, Serena waited for a while in the room where the interview was taking place, but was quickly led to the interviewer by a young woman."Serena, I've read your resume, so I'll get ri
Serena looked pale as she watched the screen blinking and not stopping, judging that the other side was about to run out of patience before she hit the answer button."What are you doing? It took you so long to answer!"Michelle's tone was bad and her eyes were full of sparks."What?""Get in touch with your sister more often in the future! Better yet, invite her to Harrington Grand Estate, I heard Matthew's cousin Jordan isn't married. If it works out, we'll be in charge of your grandmother's affairs until the end, and you'll have someone close to you in the Harrington family from now on."Before the words were out of her mouth, Serena knew what they’re planning.Samantha had been uneducated all day, had written a book about her love life at such a young age, and had been clamoring to marry a man of the people.Jordan is Matthew's cousin, not to mention his good looks, he is also a famous playboy in the social circle, this kind of man who has seen all kinds of beautiful women, how co
"Honey, want to be here?"Matthew's voice was instantly muffled, as much as he wanted to, Nathan was still standing behind them.Serena gave him a blank look, cradled the roses in her arms, and went into the living room.Matthew bumbled after her."Why did you suddenly remember to buy flowers?"She took a glass vase and carefully opened the wrapped bouquet, pulling a few out and placing them in the vase.Matthew's eyes instantly soured at the sight of this care, a sourness he couldn't quite put his finger on.Puzzled, he felt to where his chest was, his lips losing color from the pain.It hurt, in his heart and in his head.He leaned back and fainted straight away.The flowers in Serena's hand instantly fell to the ground, and she rushed the man to the hospital in fear.Was he irritated? Did she do something to hurt him?But everything she did was normal, what part of him was stimulated?After taking the person to the hospital, the doctor examined Matthew."It's probably a bad stimulu
"Boss, Madam will get mad if she can't find you."Hearing that Serena would be angry, Matthew's heart panicked, thinking that he had quietly taken her things again.If she knew about it, she would definitely ignore him.Serena did go back to Pines Ridge now, and when she saw that Matthew wasn't there, she frowned, sat down on the couch, and had the doctor called in."Madam, Sir's spirit seems to have problems originally, that's why after the bruise pressed the nerves in the brain, it became like this now, this bruise if we open the knife, if we are a little bit careless, it will take Sir's life, in order to be safe, it can only be kept in the current state, Madam you can guide it appropriately.""If I guide, won't he be stimulated? When he falls asleep these nights, he always cries out for pain in his dreams and holds his head, so I don't dare to do anything, as long as he's happy, that's enough.""Major stimulation is best avoided, the brain is too dangerous in this location, but pro
Nathan sat in the driver's seat, wanting to open his mouth to persuade, but did not know what to say.Sometimes the fool's mind is very sensitive, if he said the wrong thing, it would not be good to make a mistake."Nathan, do you think the wife likes me?"His voice was muffled, and he closed the window and lowered his lashes.Did Madam like Boss? If it had been the old Boss, maybe there was a little bit of liking, but if this was the current one, he couldn't really say.His hesitation was denial in Matthew's eyes, and his heart instantly ached, the kind of pain that quickly spread throughout his body."Is it someone else she likes?"His voice began to rasp, and his eyes filled with unease, his hands resting on his knees, both balled into small fists."Boss, Madam does like you, don't think too much."The more he advised, the more counterproductive it was.Matthew closed his eyes, his eyes filled with sourness, "I get it, she really does think I'm stupid, Nathan, let's go back!"His l
Yes, she was selfish, begging her dad to come up with the money to save her life after only meeting Matthew once.But doesn't that just mean that she likes him?That liking was paranoid and pure, regardless of who he was, his status, or even if he had a wife."Serena, if you want to blame it on Matthew, blame it on the fact that he fell right in front of me and that I saved his life."Serena didn't say anything, if that was the case, she was still to blame for this, for giving away Matthew's whereabouts.She looked over at Matthew and found him looking confused.A lot of what they were saying was beyond his comprehension, as he had no idea what was going on, from start to finish.Candice and Brook had already left, and it looked like it wasn't going to stop.Matthew stood in the doorway of the office, afraid to go in, he felt like he was getting her in trouble.Serena organized the pieces and saw him still standing in the doorway, not willing to come in, her eyebrows wrinkled, "What a
"Matthew, I can finally find you."Brook's face showed a trace of sickly pallor, pretending not to see Serena on the side, warmly stepped forward and shook Matthew's hand.Matthew looked embarrassed and naively shouted, "Uncle."Candice saw this scene and rushed over to take Brook by the arm, "Dad, Matthew has disowned us, we'd better go back."Brook glared at her, "What are you babbling about, Matthew's life was saved by us, if not for us, he would already be dead, and he said that he would be with us forever!"Serena could sort of see that the youngest was not working and the oldest was coming out.Matthew anxiously defended, "Uncle, I didn't, it's just that I found my wife, my wife is Serena."He was afraid that Serena would misunderstand, so he hastily grabbed Serena's hand, not intending to let go.Brook's eyes then looked at Serena, he covered his mouth and coughed twice before suddenly kneeling down with a 'plop'.
Serena reached out and rubbed her fingers over his cheek.Matthew's skin was so good that he couldn't see a single pore even when he looked this close, crying at this moment, as harmless as a newborn baby.Seeing Serena wiping his tears, his crying stopped in an instant, staring at her in a daze, as if he was looking at a cherished treasure that couldn't be cherished more."Wife, I suddenly realized that you are so gentle."Serena was originally full of anger, but when she heard him say this, all her anger instantly subsided.It was she who owed him, she shouldn't have been controlled and betrayed him, causing him to be in this state."Go back."She took his hand and didn't bother with Candice anymore.Matthew didn't bother with the other man either; as soon as Serena showed up, his world became nothing but her.Candice stood still, grimacing but helpless, from the moment Serena appeared, she had lost.She was so
Matthew caught her, thought of Serena, and tried to push away again in a hurry.But Candice wrapped her arms around his waist so tightly that he couldn't push away at all.Nathan watched from the sidelines, his brows knitting deeply."Matthew, I told you it wasn't safe for a girl to stay in a hotel alone, where are you staying now, I want to join you."Matthew was just about to answer honestly when Nathan spoke up, "Miss Candice, you're out wandering around by yourself at this late hour, this is a long way from the hotel you're staying at, what are you doing here alone?"Candice's face looked a little bad as she was poked and prodded, "I was hungry and wanted to come out to get something to eat."After saying that, she looked at Matthew, "Matthew, why don't you accompany me to buy something? Otherwise what if I meet a bad guy again?"Matthew was in a dilemma, he was still attached to Serena in Pines Ridge, but he was a little angry at
Serena had no intention of arguing with them, right now Matthew was a few years old and took his feelings very seriously.And Candice had capitalized on that, daring to come to Infinity Realm single-handedly.Candice had a hard time hearing Matthew call Serena his wife.She thought that this was the man God gave her, but the two of them had only been experiencing a little bit of sweet time before such an illusion was shattered, and she was just not happy about it.She was even more upset to see Serena looking like an elitist nowadays.Her family is not rich, she went out to study and took out hundreds of thousands of dollars in loans, and her father was sick, so there were only the two of them at home.She had no choice but to bring her dad with her.Now that she had graduated, it was just the right time to come out and look for a job, and when she heard that Matthew had been brought back to Hustleburg, she hurriedly followed her back
Serena's brow tightened and there was no way around it, "Fine, you're coming with me."Matthew heard this and got up quickly, dressing himself.But he didn't know how to tie a tie and fiddled with it in front of the mirror for a long time before finally looking to Serena for help."Bend over."Serena said faintly, untied the tie he had tied in a knot, took a new one out of the closet and tied it around his neck.Matthew was in a good mood, and after a quick breakfast, he followed her on his ass.Upon entering Infinity Realm, he looked curiously from side to side and finally took Serena's hand.They met quite a few people along the way, it had been rumored that Matthew's whereabouts were unknown and possibly dead, but who would have thought that the other party had actually come to Infinity Realm!The executives who were egged on by Greg earlier were so anxious that they came to the top floor office to ask for forgiveness, but none of them were able to get in with Nathan blocking the d
