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 her own medicine. But Nina wasn't going to pass up the chance to demonstrate her authority to Serena.

"Serena, let me tell you, if you don't divorce my brother, I'll make sure Samantha faces torment every day!"

Nina nonchalantly brushed aside her harsh words and left the house without having breakfast.

She didn't notice that Serena, who is fallowing her, raised an eyebrow.

Nina was really doing her a favor!

Serena immediately took a cab to the hospital with a light heart.

***

On the other hand. Wilson Manor

Samantha had been throwing a tantrum upstairs since she got home in the wee hours of the morning.

She angrily tossed all her makeup off the dresser, scattering it across the floor. Her face still bore a visible slap mark, contorted with resentment.

"Samantha!"

Michelle entered, witnessing the chaotic scene on the floor. Instead of reprimanding her daughter, she extended a comforting hand.

"Nina is the youngest daughter of the Harrington, what do you have to fight with her now? Just wait, Serena is in their family now, I asked her to set you up with Jordan Harrington! If you could marry Jordan, the bitch like Nina would just be at your mercy!"

Samantha's body lurched, her face even more humiliated at the thought of Nina's words.

"Are you relying on that LOSER Serena? She's just a NERD! What a WASTE of such beauty on her! Nina doesn't care about her! She can do nothing!"

Samantha said, feeling angry again, tears streaming down her face.

Michelle's lips curled into a knowing smile. "No matter how unpopular she is, there's always a chance to see Jordan.  I will remind her again, Samantha, Mom will do the best for you. Don't worry, you're so good, you'll get more than that bitch."

Samantha's face flushed with embarrassment, her hands trembling as she thought of the man she had encountered that day. She didn't know who he was, but his captivating look had left a lasting impression.

There might be a chance to meet him again in the future, right?

Michelle noted her daughter's infatuated expression and her face darkened. "Do you have feelings for someone?"

Their target was Jordan, and no other man would suffice.

"Mom!"

Samantha's face flushed and she bowed her head slightly, "I've only met him once."

"I don't care who it is. You can only marry Jordan Harrington!"

Samantha bit her lip, but the memory of that handsome stranger lingered. Despite not knowing his identity, she was certain she would cross paths with him again someday.

Michelle tenderly stroked Samantha's head and sighed, "If you're infatuated because he's good-looking, let me tell you, Jordan is handsome as well. Marrying him is your best opportunity. If you succeed, you can have everything you desire."

Samantha didn't say anything. She had a hunch that she liked that man very much. He was different from all the other men.

After meeting him once, she couldn't get enough of him.

"I got it, Mom."

Samantha offered a superficial response, but deep within, she couldn't stop thinking about that unforgettable day. She didn't even care about the slap on her face anymore.

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!

    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

    "That was supposed to be my question to you! How dare YOU!" Serena rubbed her hand and smiled slightly,"Do you not understand the status of the Harrington family? If Grandpa Richard were to hear you talking like this, can you imagine the consequences? Even if Matthew is unwell, he's still Matthew HARRINGTON! I had hoped you'd wise up after Nina's rebuke, but it seems you've kept your stupidity."Samantha, her face still stinging from the previous slap, covered it in shock and now had Serena pointing at her.Her emotions swirled with humiliation, unwillingness, and resentment."BITCH!" she made a move to retaliate, but a commanding voice rang out, putting an end to the altercation."Stop!"Samantha turned her head in disbelief and looked at Stephen, she was being bullied now, or being bullied by Serena, a hick, who was she to tell her to stop?However, shortly thereafter, Stephen moved to Serena's side,, he forced out a fake smile, "Have you met Mr. Richard?"Mr. Richard's status was

    During the meal, Michelle had been trying to test Serena and Richard's true relationship but was met with Serena's clever responses."Samantha will go back with you later and meet the Mrs. Tara and Miss Nina first."Michelle's tone held a veiled threat, and Serena's hand paused briefly while holding her fork, her eyes carrying a trace of coldness.Serena's hand froze on her fork for a moment, holding back the cold light in her eyes."Samantha just had a confrontation with Nina.” she added evenly. “And Nina has already made it clear that she'll SLAP her again if she sees her. Oh, of course If she really wants to go and humiliate herself, just back with me.""Serena!" Michelle slammed her bowl onto the table,the atmosphere grew heavy, thick with tension.She didn't count the fact that Serena had just hit Samantha, but the other party spoke with barbs, could it be that she really didn't care about the old villain's death?The air was dull for a moment, the smell of gunpowder."Michelle,

    Outside the door, Matthew's eyes narrowed slightly as he noted the untouched honey water and cold medicine.Retrieving the key from a nearby drawer, he unlocked the bathroom door, pushing it open.“Ah-”Serena had been leaning against the door, and she nearly stumbled forward as he entered.Quickly, she grabbed a towel from the shelf and wrapped it around herself.Matthew's pupils narrowed. It was his towel and he did not like anyone to touching his things.He had a strong penchant for cleanliness.Anger surged within him, his emotions reaching a boiling point."Sir, I'm sorry," Serena stammered.She didn't know what else to say, hanging her head as water continued to drip from her soaked hair.

    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

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
