Linda and Catherine were already in contact, so receiving a message from her wasn't surprising.But why would Serena go Global Oasis Hotel?Just as Linda pondered this question, another message from Catherine arrived.[Jack is back and will be there tonight. He has already arranged to meet Serena. If you capture evidence of their cheating, Serena will not be able to get along in the Harrington family, after losing the protection of them, she is still at our mercy!]Linda's eyes flashed with a hint of ecstasy, so it was Jack who had returned.The past intimacy between Serena and Jack was well-known, and people often said that a woman's unforgettable love was her first.Serena was persistent, and Jack's departure without a word had always been a pain in her heart.Jack was pretty much Serena's only weakness besides her Granny.The fire of triumph in Linda's eyes grew, indeed, this was the perfect opportunity!She was going to handle this one herself this time!At 7:00 PM, Linda managed
Serena couldn't help but feel helpless.She had initially planned to open the door herself, but Matthew unexpectedly took the initiative to do so.To prevent Linda from seeing Matthew's face, Serena impulsively threw herself at him, using her body to shield his face and swiftly closing the door.In her haste, Serena's teeth inadvertently grazed Matthew's lips, leaving a small cut that immediately began to bleed.Once the door was closed, the atmosphere in the room turned icy.Serena covered her mouth, wincing from the pain that distorted her face.She raised her hand to turn on the light and noticed that the cut on Matthew's lip was obvious and still bleeding."Are you okay?" she nervously inquired, her scalp tingling.Matthew's expression was grim. From the moment he received Serena's call, he felt as if he were in a fog, but he still played along and came here, expecting something important.Instead, she lunged at him upon opening the door, injuring his lips in the process.Is he go
Serena trailed behind Matthew, sensing his growing anger."Matthew, wait for me," she spoke, attempting to break the heavy silence.However, Matthew paid her no attention, proceeding straight to the car and reclining with his eyes half-closed, as if in a light doze.Feeling awkward, Serena bravely initiated conversation, "I bit you, and you bit me back. Are we even now?"She assumed Matthew was upset about the wounds on his lips.Matthew's eyebrows furrowed as he slammed the car door.The atmosphere inside the car was tense, and Serena shivered from the cold. Matthew's chilly aura enveloped her.The car finally came to a stop at Pines Ridge. Politely, she opened his door, but Matthew walked past her without acknowledging her efforts.Feeling frustrated, Serena pondered how to pacify such an unpredictable man.He had at least done her a favor tonight, and though he seemed reluctant, at least he was finally cooperating.Once back at the villa, Matthew headed straight to his study and di
Daniel, wearing a white shirt, remained silent as he stood by the floor-to-ceiling window. The wind played with the corners of his clothes.The men carefully placed Serena on a bed in the room and respectfully exited.Once the door closed, Daniel finally turned around.His fair complexion and striking black eyes carried a profound sense of sorrow and silence.He approached the bed, picked up a cup from the side, and splashed water onto Serena's face without any mercy.Coughing, Serena woke up to an unfamiliar ceiling. Startled, she sat up and saw the man standing before her.Unlike Matthew's indifference, this man's coldness was tinged with a hint of sorrow and death, like a quiet, withered narcissus."Daniel," Serena mocked with a smirk on her face.Daniel's gaze remained indifferent. Meeting an old friend under these circumstances left them speechless.Serena wiped a handful of water from her face, feeling unlucky, how could she meet this man.As she tried to leave, Daniel spoke, "I
Serena walked downstairs, checking her phone in her pocket, relieved to find it there.Her car was parked at the supermarket entrance, so she decided to take a taxi to get there.Sighing, she scolded Alex in her mind and hailed a cab.The driver, a woman, handed her a pack of tissues, saying, "Madam, just wipe off the water."Serena thanked her, taking the tissues and dabbing at her neck.In Daniel's eyes, there was only Scarlett and others in the world. So she wasn't surprised he was rude.She still couldn't understand why he betrayed Scarlett, especially when their love seemed so intense back then.All his tenderness, anxiety, heaviness, and impurity were given to Scarlett, only for him to discard her and be with another woman.It was laughable. Men's expressions of love, it seemed, were short-lived.The taxi stopped at the supermarket entrance, and Serena spotted her car, breathing a sigh of relief.After paying the fare, she got out and headed towards the car.Since she was alread
Emily was furious, and the images she had seen in the video replayed in her mind, causing turmoil in her chest.Serena knew Emily must have watched the video. Linda worked fast."Madam, I don't know what you're talking about."She couldn't let Emily know that all of this was part of her plan; otherwise, Emily might think she was a scheming woman.Emily gritted her teeth, her gaze shifting to the dishes on the table.At a glance, she could tell these weren't prepared by the villa's chef, and since Matthew couldn't cook, it had to be Serena.This woman went to great lengths to get close to her grandson!Raising her hand, Emily yanked the tablecloth down, overturning the carefully prepared dishes.*PAH*The soup landed on the floor, looking messy.Matthew narrowed his eyes, looking at the chaos in front of him. Lips tightened, he said, "Can't this wait until after the meal?"His voice was cold, and anyone with a bit of sense could tell he was angry.Serena had prepared a whole meal, and
Emily furrowed her brows and reopened her phone. The more she looked at the man in the video, the more he resembled her grandson.She glanced at Serena, then turned and sat on the nearby sofa.It seemed she intended to thoroughly understand the situation.Serena had the same intention. Seizing this opportunity, she wanted Emily to see Linda clearly!Soon, Nathan brought over the investigated video and also carried a laptop.From Linda's stalking to her framing, everything was crystal clear.Emily stared wide-eyed in astonishment, finding it hard to believe Linda's actions.Linda had always been obedient and well-behaved. Besides, with her mother's recent death, how could she have the mindset to stalk Serena?Emily’s lips trembled, and an inexplicable anger spread within her.At this very moment, Linda called."Grandma, where are you?" She asked cautiously, her voice pure and obedient.Emily, with a tight-lipped expression, asked, "Linda, what were you doing last night?"Linda was star
Serena thought her days would calm down after Emily left Pines Ridge.But the next day, Emily was at her doorstep again."Madam"She called out politely because, with Emily's presence, she couldn't continue going out.Tomorrow was Granny's surgery, and Serena needed to go to the hospital to follow up on the situation."What's your relationship with Henry Anderson?"Henry Anderson was the principal of the university where Serena worked.Emily had already sent someone to inquire among her university alumni. They said that Serena did indeed have a good relationship with Henry. Considering Linda's words, she felt disgusted!Serena paused and thought nothing else for the moment. "Mr. Henry is my headmistress and he appreciates me a lot."She won numerous awards every year, and the school leaders were familiar with her. Henry had even taken her out to participate in competitions. Describing it as appreciation wasn't too much."Appreciates? What kind of appreciation? The kind that happens in
