Serena tossed and turned until late at night before finally falling asleep.

The next day, she woke up feeling unwell, both physically and mentally foggy.

However, the Wilson Family seemed restless, sending someone to the gate early in the morning, claiming to escort her for a meal.

Tara, standing nearby, remained silent as she was unfamiliar with their affairs.

Serena was reluctant to go. She had severed ties with them, and going alone might lead to unforeseen consequences.

She saw through the thinly veiled threat when the driver, with apparent respect but an underlying tone of menace, mentioned, "Mrs. Serena, sir wants to know if you still want that bracelet. He knows where it is."

Serena's pupils contracted sharply.

The bracelet she retrieved last time turned out to be fake, and she still didn't know its actual location.

Besides its monetary value, the bracelet was the only thing her mother left behind, likely connected to her mother's identity.

Therefore, she was determined to get

    Serena addressing him as "Matthew," a clear and resonant sound, like thunder echoing in her ears.Reacting instinctively, Samantha hid behind a tree, refraining from getting any closer.He was Matthew? Serena's husband?She couldn't decipher the emotions swirling within her—bitterness, sourness—evolving into resentment towards Serena.Soon, as if she had made up her mind, she rushed to the door of the house, and shouted to Michelle."Mom, I want to marry Matthew! Do you have any way to KILL Serena? I don't want her to stay by Matthew's side any longer."Michelle was momentarily stunned."Do you want to marry Matthew?" Michelle asked, her tone shifting from questioning to resolute.Eleanor's daughter could, so why not hers? Once Serena was ousted, Samantha would have the opportunity to marry Matthew."Mom, I am sure!"Samantha had never been this fervent about acquiring something.In her two decades, she hadn't known what she wanted.Still, upon seeing Matthew, everything became clear.

    The Serena in Matthew's eyes was resolute, confident.When facing others, she always erected prickles all over her body, completely hiding her vulnerable side. Anyone who hurt her would be pricked by the thorns on her, like a hedgehog.So seeing her in this sulking posture, he unexpectedly found it somewhat cute, as if at this moment, she looked like a normal girl."I'm not a saint. Why can't I get angry? I don't need you to remind me all the time. I know what exactly is our relationship. But anyway, for the next two years, you will be my husband. Since that's the case, why can't I rely on you a bit? Am I stupid?"Her blunt admission of wanting to rely on him made Matthew's eyes flicker.From the beginning, he knew Serena was different from other women. In his presence, she seemed to never conceal her thoughts.From the card to her instructions for his people to protect her granny, and now.He found it hard to imagine that the person displaying a poor demeanor in front of him now had

    On the other side, Alex returned home with a swollen face."Outrageous! BITCH!"Stephen saw him in this pouty state and reached out and slapped him right across the face!*Smack!*Alex, somewhat incredulous, covered his face, "Dad, did you just hit me?"Stephen was so angry that his hands were shaking and his ears were buzzing.His son and daughter were stupid, and the only useful one was cutting him off.He was out of luck!"I just send you to deliver a message, how simple it is! And you manage to mess it up. What can I expect from you? You're nothing but a waste!"Alex instantly didn't dare to speak and covered his face in frustration.They didn't know the contact information of the Harrington Family, so they could only go to the place where they often appeared to squat.But who knew he would meet Nina there!Now that Nina already knew about their plan, if they went to spread the news again, they would only be exterminated first.Thinking of this, Stephen resented this unworthy son

    Evening arrived.Serena took a taxi to the designated location. Instead of going up to find Matthew, she waited outside the building.Matthew's car soon turned the corner, and Serena quickly got in.It was a surprise that Matthew was driving himself today, but she didn't ask too much."Where to?" The car blended into the flow of traffic, and Matthew asked with his hands lightly resting on the steering wheel, his slender fingertips casually playing.If it were any other woman, they would probably choose the fanciest French restaurant, but that would be too boring because those were the things he ate regularly.What would Serena choose for him?It had been on his mind since he'd driven out."Let's go to my school. There's an Italian restaurant there, mainly selling handmade pizzas. You won't be disappointed."Matthew didn't ask, and he navigated to Metropolitan University, driving slowly towards it.After about forty minutes, they could see the gates of Metropolitan University from a di

    After getting into the car, Matthew placed his hands on the steering wheel, gazing at the neon lights not far away as his thoughts drifted away.If the two of them loved each other so much, why did they break up?Serena, a person who treated relationships with extreme stubbornness, would reveal her cards from the start, willing to burn out but unwilling to let go.So why did she eventually compromise and agree to marry him?"Why did you break up?" He turned to look at her, finally asking this question.Serena's heart ached, and her face turned a few shades paler. "His family was well-off, unlike mine. His mother said he was the sun in the sky, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't reach him. He obeyed his family's arrangements and went abroad with another girl."She paused to take a deep breath and smiled to herself before continuing, “On a rainy night, I went out to find him, begging his mother to let me see him one last time. But she told me he had already boarded the plane, le

    Infinity Realm Inc.Serena could walk on her legs and had no intention of missing any more work.The last lawsuit had been won because of her, and everyone in the legal department knew that, but what Ella had said before she left made them very jealous.Serena had a background, and she was still a bully!So on Serena's first day back at work, not a single person in the entire department came to talk to her.She had no intention of taking the initiative to make up with anyone, after all, she didn't come here to make friends.At noon, instead of going to the cafeteria to eat, she left the company, intending to check on granny first.But just as she stepped out of the gate, a woman lunged at her, smashing the bag in her hand against her head.“BITCH!”The bag had rivets on it, and when it was smashed down like that, her head was dizzy for a while.The guards at the gate rushed to stop the cloaked woman, Serena covered her head, and only then did she get a good look at the woman.It was E

    Having entered the car, Serena rolled up all the windows, narrowing her eyes slightly.Ella felt uneasy. Despite Serena being much younger, she now seemed like a child who had done something wrong.Serena waited for Ella to speak, to explain the events leading up to this moment.Ella hesitated before finally opening up."After leaving, I quickly joined another company. At that time, all I could think about was defeating you. But in just a few days, I got fired. After that, I couldn't find any work. No company wanted to hire me. Last night, I encountered some thugs. I was almost...,"She paused, trembling at the memory, then continued, "A woman saved me. She had bodyguards with her, and those thugs were captured. During interrogation, they claimed you sent them.."“ I've been facing continuous setbacks—no job, unpaid mortgages, and car loans. The bank keeps calling me. My emotions reached a terrifying point. What happened last night finally pushed me over the edge.”Serena's eyelashes

    Pines Ridge"Madam, your current room will be your room from now on. All toiletries are provided for you. If there's anything missing, please let me know."Serena nodded, dragging her luggage into the room.The room had several new wardrobes. Opening one, she found it filled with clothes, each set still with its tags on. A whole wall, organized by the four seasons, each with at least thirty outfits.Another wardrobe was packed with handbags, shoes, and neatly arranged hats.Her room even had a spacious vanity table with internationally renowned skincare products, from cleansers to essences, all top-tier.Serena's mouth nearly dropped open.She had visited Nina's room before and never expected to enjoy the same treatment. Staring at the skincare products on the vanity, she reached out and touched them.Back in college, many girls would spray perfume and apply lipstick.She had envied them back then; after all, which girl didn't love these things?However, all the money she earned went

    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
