Chapter 5 I SLAPPED her yesterday!

2024-08-12 10:53:14The 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.

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

"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,

Matthew noticed her bleeding palm and furrowed his brow but remained seated in the car without a word.Serena, in pain, bit her tongue fiercely, the intense sting briefly sobering her. She gripped the car door and stumbled inside.Nathan sensed something was amiss, but the boss's silence kept him from speaking up.Matthew's gaze remained faint as he looked out the window, the passing light leaving flickering shadows on his face.Serena gazed at him, her eyes reddening, smitten for a moment.

Matthew didn't care about her anymore and took it in stride.His body was stained with a lot of water and he looked wet."Boss, the doctor is here." Nathan called cautiously from outside the door, keeping his ears open for any movement inside.This was the first woman had entered Pines Ridge and shared a room with Boss.Matthew changed into clean clothes, and opened the door.Nathan withdrew his inquisitive gaze and showed his respect by bowing his head."Go make a cup of hot honey water and send the doctor back."Matthew's body was cool and his hair was wet.Nathan watched him change, his mind instantly spinning in a hundred directions...Usually people will shower and change after ......"Yes sir."

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.

Lorraine's fingers squeezing her coffee cup tightened for a few moments and her eyes sank, she hadn't expected Matthew to speak so nonchalantly."Matthew, you probably don't know that Maxwell has already annulled his engagement with me for Serena's sake and is going to bring Serena back to the Harrington family headquarters in spite of the elders' objections, Serena has stayed in the Purple Garden for so long, and what exactly she and Maxwell have done, do you really not care at all don't mind?"There wasn't a man who wouldn't mind, it was just that Matthew's fondness for Serena went beyond all that.Now that Lorraine brought it up, the discomfort in his heart was instantly magnified.It was only now that he realized that Serena had lived in the Purple Garden, and that Maxwell had called off his wedding to Lorraine."Matthew, you also know that Maxwell looks exactly like you, so have you ever thought that maybe Serena is just using you as his doubl

Matthew was deliberately hiding her whereabouts?This was something Serena knew, Matthew was trying to divert attention from other people by contacting other women before.Robin noticed the look in her eyes and knew that she trusted Matthew and felt slightly uncomfortable."Rena, go ahead and turn over the next photo, Matthew and that woman have met, this is what I took from the cafe's security camera, and it happens to have the front of that woman in it, exactly the same as you, have you ever thought that maybe you're just a stand-in for a certain woman, and that Matthew's being nice to you is just trying to divert the attention of certain people .""No."Serena denied it almost without thinking, her brow set in determination.If it hadn't been for what happened in the fire, maybe she really would have suspected Matthew.But in the fire, how could Matthew be protecting the woman when he had already said that to her."Rena, you

It was getting darker and darker, and Serena's mind had been restless ever since she heard that Matthew had to go out recently.When she went to bed at night, she habitually nestled into his arms, and just as she entered dreamland, she began to dream.Dreams of deep, bottomless oceans, dreams of the man holding her close and not wanting to let go, dreams of him chewing raw fish and feeding it mouth-to-mouth into her mouth.The ship's board was adrift in such an ocean, her life in danger at any moment.She was shivering with cold, unable to distinguish dream from reality.He called her "Serena" over and over again in her ear, his voice so gentle and loving that her eyes began to redden.Her body was held in his arms, and he kept her warm with his body heat, while he was submerged in the sea.The fish smelled so full of fish that she swallowed almost unconsciously, having no idea what she was going through.Serena's tears ran dow

"Sophie, why are you telling me about this now, I was almost victimized by that bitch!"Roger had a belly full of bitter water and was worried that he had no place to pour it out, just when Sophie called this number.And Sophie was still different from the others, at least the other party had been comforting him."Mr. Roger, so how are you now? Is everything okay?"Even though she already knew how Roger ended up, Sophie was still pretending to be confused at this moment.Hearing that she was concerned about herself, Roger suddenly felt a little guilty, guilty that before this, he actually suspected that Sophie was trying to brush herself off.It turns out that people are just not feeling well, and they are not receiving calls for the time being.Sophie's image in his heart instantly towered over him, and all of his resentment was transferred to Serena."Being dismissed by my uncle, all because of Serena, this bitch!"Rog

Serena raised her eyebrows, it turned out that contacting the bodyguard did not rely on the phone, this was something she really did not think about.When the old man saw her face, his eyebrows were even more smug, ''Do you think that there is nothing I can do if you block my men down there? I'm just willing to cooperate with you, I really think I'm charmed by you, now you don't want to pull Infinity Realm's Boss on me, no one can save you, if you're sensible, you can send this bodyguard out of the room, and stay here with me for a few days."Serena gauged the time and Matthew was almost there.She had the bodyguard hold the older man down while she herself broke the glass in the bathroom, picking up the shards and plunging them down his throat."Mr. Roy would be better off with a little less talk right now."Her tone was light, yet her strike was so vicious.Mr. Roy was so shocked that he almost screamed, luckily the glass shard stopped a few centimeters from his throat.His forehead

The old man was already dissatisfied with Roger's current attitude, and now that he heard Serena say this, he instantly understood.It turned out that Roger himself coveted Serena's beauty, and the gaze he looked at Roger with a thorn in his side, making Roger feel like a fool inside and out.Roger could only hastily apologize, "Mr. Roy, I definitely didn't mean that."After saying that, he looked at Serena, his eyes full of threats, "It's good that Madam can figure it out, following Mr. Roy does have a good life, don't you think of running away, or else ......"Serena laughed lowly and didn't bother.The old man could no longer stand Serena's clear-cut energy, and immediately spoke sharply, "Where does Madam want to go? Please."He made a "please" gesture, and Serena lifted her foot and left.Roger was in a hurry, but with Mr. Roy here, he couldn't really say anything.Serena went all the way out of Vitec Technologies, her heart suppressed a ball of fire, but now the crisis has not b

She kept whispering, but in this small space, the sound had a brief echo that disturbed her.She crouched in the corner, holding her head, her mind in turmoil.The people in the monitoring room saw her like this and were a little afraid that something was wrong, but with Roger's orders in front of them, no one dared to put Serena out.The child's voice was getting more and more shrill, like she was facing some great fear, and with it being in this dark, claustrophobic space, Serena felt like she was going crazy.She pounded on the wall, but no one paid any attention to her until the back of her hand was swollen.In the afternoon, Roger mercifully came over to take another look and found Serena had crouched motionless in the corner of the wall and looked quizzically at the crowd in the custody room."What's wrong with her? Shouldn't be scared to death?"His tone was full of mockery, the corners of his mouth curved up triumphantly, "I thought I had a hard-on, but it turned out to be jus

If she didn't see it with her own eyes, Serena couldn't believe it was Sophie.Sophie liked Jack to the point of paranoia, and didn't expect to go behind Jack's back and do something like this."Does Jack know when you're like this?"Her voice trailed off, holding her chest slightly as she looked Sophie over.Sophie raised an eyebrow, getting up and grabbing a bag off to the side, "Madam is this about meddling in her ex-boyfriend's family business?"She emphasized her ex-boyfriend, her words full of sarcasm.Serena raised her eyebrows and laughed out softly, "That's not true, before I heard that Winters Group had a big crisis, after seeing you I realized that the crisis has been so serious that the grand lady of Winters Group actually needs to come out to pick up customers, I'm just a little surprised."Sophie originally still had a cloudy face, when she heard her say that, her face instantly changed, slightly narrowing her eyes."Serena, if it wasn't for you, do you think I would be

All she needed to do was to plant a seed of doubt in Serena's heart, and with time, that seed would surely grow into a huge tree.Serena was staring at her cell phone in a daze, and when Lorraine reminded her of this, a cold sweat did break out on her back.She thought back carefully to the details of her re-encounter with Matthew, such as to Mr. Roger was touching her left index finger, the place where she wore her ring.Matthew never wore a ring, only Maxwell wore a ring, and only someone who wore a ring would react that way.She tossed her cell phone aside as a pain started to build in her head.After careful thought, she found the idea funny again, Lorraine still had something to hide from her, this person's words couldn't be trusted one hundred percent, maybe the other person was purposely trying to separate her and Matthew.Thinking of this, her heart settled down a bit, lying on the bed and fell asleep.Matthew returned not long after, he lifted a corner of the quilt and lay on
