Serena hurriedly returned to the shopping mall.

In her haste, she collided with another woman at the entrance. Both of them dropped their bags on the ground.

When Serena looked up, she felt that the woman was somewhat familiar. It seemed she was part of the group with Catherine and had taunted her at the banquet.

However, Serena couldn't remember her name.

"Are your eyes blind? "

The woman was furious, picking up the bags from the ground, glaring at Serena.

“It’s you?! BITCH!”

However, considering the power of the Harrington family behind Serena, she cursed a bit more before leaving hastily.

Serena remained silent. Arguing with such a woman was a waste of energy.

The more she engaged, the more unpleasant things the woman would say.

She bent down to pick up the remaining paper bag and briskly walked back in the direction she had just strolled through.

The cashier, holding her phone, awaited her. Seeing Serena, her eyes lit up.

"Madam, I wanted to call your friend just now. You dropped

    Having finished the meal, waiters systematically came to clear the remnants.The tables in the hall were also removed, replaced by beautiful white stools.Everyone sat down, and the host went on stage to tally up the donations for this event.Serena keenly observed that the girl in the red dress got up and walked out, seemingly because the waiter said something to her.Serena wanted to follow but refrained; her position was too conspicuous, and standing up would attract everyone's attention.She could only sit back, planning to talk to the girl later and exchange the dresses.The list on the stage was about to be read to the end and everyone looked at Serena, if they heard right, Serena didn't seem to have donated anything, did she?Was she here just to freeload?It’s seems like although the Harrington family supported her, she was ultimately from a humble background.Several people who knew Serena started whispering, and their gazes turned fervent when they looked at her.Serena frow

    "Serena, your driver is here."Jordan, standing beside Serena, noticed her pale expression and gently nudged her shoulder.Serena snapped out of her thoughts, turned her head, and indeed saw the driver approaching. It seemed he was getting anxious after not seeing her for a while.Without lingering, she quickly left through the back door.After getting into the car, Serena thought a lot, and her fingertips were trembling slightly.Initially, she hadn't associated this incident with Linda because it seemed too absurd.She couldn't recall having such intense hatred with Linda until her phone rang, and it was Ella calling."Serena, do you know Linda? Can you send me a picture of her?"Serena didn't hesitate and quickly found a photo in the university group to send to Ella.Soon, Ella sent a message back.[This is the woman I was talking about before! You have to watch out for her!]Earlier today, Ella had noticed the name of Serena's caller, and hadn't paid much attention to it. After al

    Matthew seemed to have never said those words because he knew very well that two years later, they would have no relationship whatsoever.He lowered his eyes, quietly staring at the hand she grasped so tightly.She exerted considerable force, seemingly genuinely afraid of losing him.Matthew pursed his lips, then sat down again.Serena had someone in her heart, and that man was a secret she couldn't touch. He had no intention of delving into it.He reached out, adjusted her blanket, and his gaze softened.At this moment, he bent over, his face close to hers. His breath seemed to spray onto her face.He was about to move away when Serena chose this moment to open her eyes.They locked gazes, saying nothing.At first, Serena's eyes had a hint of mist, but realizing the somewhat delicate posture they were in, her face instantly turned red, and she averted her gaze.Matthew stood up slowly without explaining and said, "The IV is finished. Just sleep."Half of Serena's face was buried in t

    Upstairs, Matthew stood by the bedroom's French windows, gloom all around him."Still haven't found out anything?" he inquired with a steely tone.Nathan's face resumed its respectful composure as he bowed slightly. "Boss, there's almost no trace over there, but I have a suspect in mind."Matthew claimed to the outside world that he was recuperating, and naturally, one of his replacements was living in a hospital abroad.Recently, a group of people had infiltrated the hospital, and the double was shot, surviving by a hair's breadth.Matthew rushed there due to this incident, but the culprits left no trace.It seemed like those uncles couldn't sit still anymore.His eyes showed a hint of hostility, and he coldly hooked his lips."If it's them, don't bother for now. Grandpa is sick, and losing a loved one would hit him hard."As long as they didn't cross his bottom line, he couldn't be bothered with whatever schemes they had.Nathan nodded; with the double surviving a close call, those

    With the surgery approaching, the doctors didn't dare to be lax, conducting daily examinations to ensure Granny's overall health.The upcoming operation would be challenging, and her body needed to be in optimal condition."Madam, your grandma's condition is still good," the doctor informed her.Serena stood by the bedside, letting out a sigh of relief.Granny lay there, deep in slumber, her aged skin resembling dry tree bark, layers sagging downward.Granny had endured a lot over the years, facing various ailments in her old age.Serena stayed at the hospital until late, talking to Granny.The upcoming surgery wasn't guaranteed to be a hundred percent successful, so Serena cherished every moment spent with her Granny.It wasn't until 9PM when her phone rang, it was Matthew.Serena looked at the screen flashing dimly, hesitated for a moment, and answered, "Hello""Where are you? I'll come pick you up." Matthew had just finished a meeting and now had some free time.A lump formed in Se

    The man who kidnapped Serena didn't think about turning off Serena's phone. He believed that by controlling her phone, she wouldn't be able to call the police.Serena remained silent throughout, her palms sweaty.The car was clearly speeding, and the scenery outside quickly retreated. She suddenly wished this road would never end, at least then the man might not stop and harm her.However, ten minutes later, the man harshly stepped on the brake.The car halted in front of an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts. He holding a dagger, got out and walked to the back, staring menacingly at Serena. "Get out!"Serena pursed her lips, not daring to make any movements.The man impatiently reached out and pulled her down."I know you're smart! Don't play tricks with me! I don't have time to waste on you!"The man grabbed her and brought her into the warehouse.The warehouse was drafty and gloomy, with peeling walls.A blanket was casually laid in one corner, next to it, a camera on a tripod.S

    *Rumble, rumble*The roar of the helicopter echoed, the wind lifting leaves and swirling them in the air.The man, intending to unbuckle his belt, halted, his face contorting as he looked towards the gust of wind.*Smack!*The gate was kicked open, bullets flying before the person arrived.The man's leg was hit..“AH!!!”Serena quickly clutched her collar, stepping back. Blood from her bitten lip dripped onto her trembling thighs.She dared not look to see what was happening, her mind devoid of rationality. Any woman in such a situation couldn't remain calm.She'd been able to maneuver around the man for so long that she'd reached her limit.Matthew held a gun and, without checking on the man's condition, walked towards Serena.Serena kept her head down, clutching her collar, curling up even more after the touch on her head, and her body began to shake."I’m here"Matthew rubbed the top of her head, only to hear her scream and slap his hand away, "Don't touch me!"She couldn't disting

    The next morning the hospital was busy, Emily was called in early and the doctors were sad."Mrs. Emily, she passed away early in the morning. We haven't informed Miss Linda yet. Considering her fragile health, we're afraid she might be devastated."Emily sighed, rubbing her forehead with her hand, "She's an adult now, and besides, it's her mother who passed away. She has the right to know the truth. I'll go tell her."She entered Linda's room and found Linda sitting quietly on the bed, staring blankly out the window, almost as if life had left her body.Beside her was a small diary that Linda had been using since her hospitalization, writing in it every day.Emily had known about it all along, even buying her the pink diary."Linda, what are you writing?" Emily asked, picking up the open diary.A black pen lay on top, and a string of verses caught her eye.Here, desolate, not a blade of grass grows.Later, you came here.Miraculously, everything came to life.This is my heart.Emily'

    Serena didn't know what to say, it was useless to persuade anyone.She could understand Molly, if someone suddenly told her that Matthew had had an accident, she was afraid that she wouldn't be in a better situation than the other person.Molly's eyes reddened as she pushed her away, "I want some peace and quiet."With that, she got into a side car.Serena stood in place for a moment, watching the car go out of sight before she sighed heavily.Footsteps appeared behind her, footsteps she was already familiar with, it was Oscar."Thanks for taking me in these past few days, I'm moving out tonight."She said faintly, her heart hardening.Oscar didn't say anything and followed her to the car.The car stopped in front of the apartment and the two went inside together.Serena had very little, just a few sets of clothes, which she had packed before she left the house, and was able to leave with her suitcase in hand at this moment.But just as she was carrying the suitcase, an embrace sudden

    Serena thought that it might be Lorraine who had taken Richard hostage, but didn't realize that this woman was actually this ruthless.No wonder Matthew hadn't said a word just now and had been holding back.If he had said one more word, he might have received Richard's finger.Her brows wrinkled, Lorraine actually dared to go this farMatthew's people were definitely doing their best to search for Richard's whereabouts, but she was also concerned about what the other pinch was in Lorraine's hands.Oscar said that the only people who knew about it were Matthew and Lorraine, and there was obviously no way those two were going to tell the truth.She reaches up to rub her temples when she suddenly feels a warm coolness coming from her hand.She opened her eyes to find that Oscar had placed his hand over hers and was prying it away from her, pressing her temples himself.Serena froze and subconsciously had to duck."Stay still and close your eyes."His voice was gentle, and the force of h

    "I'm tired of being played?"Serena braced herself, no matter what, she didn't want to lose in front of Lorraine.She glanced up at Matthew and could clearly sense Matthew's dislike for Lorraine, a dislike that was shallow but she still detected it.He clearly disliked Lorraine, yet he allowed Lorraine to act recklessly in front of him, how did he look like he had a handle on Lorraine, and this handle was not usually small.Serena's mind was spinning fast, she couldn't believe that Matthew would say love so easily, let alone that he would say no so easily.She pursed her lips and tried to think about what had happened during this period of time, and the only thing that Matthew was holding onto was Richard abroad.Not long ago, I heard that Richard was still in resuscitation, could it be that Lorraine's people had taken Richard hostage?With Lorraine's character, it's not that she can't do such a thing, her mind is meticulous, she must have held Matthew's handle, so she dares to be so

    Lorraine didn't make a fool of herself by going up and climbing on Matthew's bandwagon; everyone would associate her with Matthew anyway if she was here tonight.She bowed her head, curled her lips in a smile, and left the place, going to the other side.There were a lot of people surrounding Matthew, but he didn't have the heart to deal with it.Out of the corner of his eye, he searched the crowd and quickly found Serena.He lowered his eyes faintly, his lips pursed a few inches tighter.In front of Serena stood a man, a man who was very good looking, similar to her age."Se..... ...Serena."He was so nervous that he stuttered a bit in his speech.Serena had been fuming when she heard her name being called and looked up in a hurry.She really didn't remember much about her classmates, so she couldn't recall this one's name for a moment, and could only smile in a friendly manner, "Is something wrong?""You're single now aren't you?"The man looked like he had gathered a lot of courage

    Yeah, so many people in Hustleburg were waiting to taunt her, and this centennial celebration was sure to be a great one.She was definitely missing out on a lot of gossip if she didn't go.Serena hung her head and glanced at the dress, a very classy style, Oscar had a good eye."How much?"She took refuge in someone else's place, ate from them, used them, and how could she be ashamed to accept another gift from him.Oscar raised an eyebrow and didn't answer.Serena took out a card from her own pocket, "Don't you forget, I'm a rich woman now, I divorced Matthew and he gave me quite a lot of things, this card is my own, I've already forgotten how much is in it, let's consider it as this dress and my rent? I'm moving out after the school festival, I can't live here all the time."Oscar didn't squirm and took the card, "Good."If he didn't take it, she would be panicked instead, and being more open about it would make her feel better about living here.Serena sighed with relief, and went

    Oscar's fingertips lurched and patted her head, "I'm going to go make dinner, you can cry if you want to, and put it down for now after you've cried."With that said, he got up and retraced his steps back to the kitchen.Serena hugged over a pillow and crooked herself on the couch, staring at the ceiling in disbelief.Exhaustion instantly flooded her, and she leaned over and fell right back to sleep.Oscar made dinner and when he saw her asleep, he took the blanket from the side and covered her.Instead of waking her, he warmed the few small dishes he had made and sat quietly, waiting for her to wake up.Serena had a long sleep, she hadn't dreamed of Mary in a long time, and for once she actually did.She seems to have found someone to talk to, all the pretense instantly put down, buried in each other's arms, a strong cry.Serena's dream was a long one, and she woke up to see the unfamiliar furnishings around her and hurriedly braced herself.She was sleeping in Oscar's bed.His room

    With every word he said, Serena felt like she was being poked in the heart.She wanted to try and ignore everything that had happened last night, but the more she tried to forget, the more the scene became etched in her mind.Oscar closed the window behind him and turned to look at her faintly, "What are you going to do next?"Serena didn't answer because she hadn't figured out what she was going to do either.It had happened so suddenly that it was still a bit of a shock."Get out of here first, the hotel security can only stop them for a while, when the reporters rush up, you won't be able to leave."Serena didn't think much of it and immediately packed up and left the hotel.She got into Oscar's car, the windows were closed so the reporters didn't realize she had left.Serena looked outside, her nose sniffing the scent of his ink if anything.He should be drawing and practicing at home a lot or he wouldn't have this natural scent on him at all times."Did Matthew send you?"That sc

    She found the box in the bedroom and simply packed a few clothes in.When the servant saw her like this, he still spoke respectfully, "Madam, you have too many things, I can have someone send them to you."Serena acted as if she didn't hear it, she was holding her breath now."Where do I have anything, when I married here, I only brought a few pieces of clothing."In fact, she wanted to be like any other woman, to stick around and not leave, or to stalk and barricade herself against him, but her dignity would not allow her to do so.She ignored her physical exhaustion and took a small suitcase out of Pines Ridge.She didn't ask her driver to drive her away, but walked the distance herself and took a cab.The news was all over the place about her divorce from Matthew and there were pictures released of Matthew dating someone else.Overnight, it was like she fell from heaven to hell.She had no place to go and had just gotten out of the rental when Scarlett called, calling Matthew insid
