Serena didn't expect Linda to hang up so quickly.

She stared at her phone, a mocking smile playing on her lips. Was she unable to handle it so soon?

Linda was pitiable, But she wouldn't forgive unconditionally like a brainless person.

"Tthanks" Although Matthew had only uttered four words throughout the conversation, the impact of those four words was as powerful as a bomb.

Linda, so arrogant, probably went mad from anger, right?

Matthew remained silent.

He seemed increasingly curious about Serena, curious about how she could always utter such sharp words, and curious about how soft she could be in his presence.

"You..." He hesitated for a moment, then continued placing the eggs on her cheek.

"In front of me, it seems like you've never pretended to be anything."

She openly admitted her past relationship, let him know her personality, and revealed a vulnerable side that needed protection.

Serena wore a thousand masks, but surprisingly, he didn't dislike any of them.

    Serena's heart skips a beat when she looks up and sees Matthew standing not far away in the corridor, holding a thermos.His brows are furrowed, and a chilling atmosphere surrounds him.She falls silent instantly, feeling inexplicably guilty and reluctant to speak.Emily, noticing Matthew's arrival, hurries to approach him."Matthew, did you hear what she just said? She's only with you for some ulterior motive. She's after your money.""Grandma, there are plenty of wealthy people in Hustleburg. Why wouldn't she go after someone else's money?" Matthew responds, blocking Emily's words, and her face turns purple in frustration."It's cold here. You should go back," Matthew adds, glancing at the swollen-faced maid beside him."Take Grandma back."The maid lowers her head, avoids eye contact, and quickly assists Emily, who leaves with a sense of satisfaction.Serena, feeling a bit unlucky, wonders why her words always seem to coincide with Matthew's appearances."Ma..Matthew" she stammers,

    As she walked away, Serena's face still unattractive and miserable, she casually bought a bowl of porridge and sat down in the small shop to eat it.Waiting for her mood to ease a bit, she took out her cell phone and looked at the messages on it.Her eyebrows furrowed as she noticed the contents of the forum, Linda was determined to make a big deal out of this.Public opinion would always be on the side of the underdog, and since Linda had committed suicide, people were more than willing to believe that she was the underdog.Serena rubbed her forehead, she really didn't have any proof about Linda and her stepfather.Now that Linda had come to testify against her, there was really nothing she could do for a while.In that case, let's try it with this so-called stepfather.The corner of Serena's mouth twitched, actually she didn't want to deal with such a man, but this was all forced on her by Linda, and if this matter wasn't resolved as soon as possible, she was afraid that Henry would

    On the other side at the hospital, Linda was restrained on the bed by everyone.Having recently regained consciousness, she had used a shard of glass to cut her artery, nearly causing severe bleeding and shock.Emily watched with great distress as doctors were currently bandaging her.Due to Linda's intense struggles, they had to administer a sedative."Linda, I know you've suffered a lot, and I understand your resentment towards Serena. Rest assured, I won't let her off easily," Emily reassured.After all these years of companionship, Emily considered Linda as almost a granddaughter.Tears welled up in Linda's eyes, and she bit her lip tightly, finally calming down emotionally.However, in the hidden corners where no one could see, a glint of satisfaction flashed in her eyes.Emily wouldn't doubt her innocence anymore!"Emily, don't you blame me for liking Matthew?" Linda asked.Emily sighed. "I can't help you with that. Keep your feelings for Matthew to yourself. I won't let Serena

    These days, Serena hardly rested.After the surgery, Granny entered a critical period, and only when that passed could her safety be ensured.Serena was busy shuttling between the company and the hospital, rarely returning to Pines Ridge. This made a certain man unhappy.Since their last unpleasant encounter, they hadn't spoken for several days.The atmosphere in the villa was tense. Matthew sat on the sofa, his brows occasionally furrowing. "Has Serena returned?"This was the ninth time he had asked today. Since coming back from the company, he had been sitting there, waiting."Sir, Madam's grandma will soon pass the critical period. She's expected to return tonight."Matthew nodded, his face regaining some indifference.At seven in the evening, the servant respectfully spoke, "Sir, should I bring up dinner?""Hmm." He answered faintly, occasionally glancing toward the door.Why hasn't she come back yet?At half-past seven, the door of the villa opened, and a tired Serena walked in,

    Matthew's tone carried a hint of frustration.Serena's brain had temporarily shut down. It wasn't until he spoke that she dumbly looked at her hands, which had been placed in the bathtub from the direction of her thighs.Could he possibly think that she was...She hastily withdrew her hands, her face turning beet red.Even someone as composed as Serena had never encountered such an awkward situation."Let me explain..."She finished speaking and suddenly realized she was still half-naked. In a hurry, she submerged herself in the water."You go out first, and I'll be out soon after I finish washing."Matthew pursed his lips and slammed the door, turning away in frustration.Serena rubbed her temples, thinking that her first visit to Pines Ridge had already been embarrassing enough, but now it was even worse.Hurriedly drying herself with a towel, she put on her pajamas and went out.Matthew sat on the bed with a dark expression, clearly in an unpleasant mood.Any man wouldn't feel good

    Serena calmly looked at him, reaching out to cup his face." I just want you to understand that it's not that I'm unwilling, but rather, you are. You have a strong sense of responsibility. I am only your nominal wife, and you protect me at every turn, preventing me from harm. If you take away my body, the two-year agreement might become void. You are well aware of this, so since we got married, you have never thought about what could happen between us. Even when you hold me or kiss me, you've never thought about it in that way."Matthew's hand, pressing down on the blanket, stiffened. A complex emotion suddenly surged in his silent eyes.This was the first time a woman had held his face and said such things to him.He pursed his lips, but ultimately remained silent."Matthew, you are a good man. If I had met you earlier, maybe I would have loved you, but my love has already run out."Everyone thought she fell in love with Jack during college, but in reality, it happened even earlier.

    "I know, I'll get right back to the Mercenaries, Maxwell, what happens after we find Matthew? I kill him?""Byron, I told you, I'll take care of him myself."Byron didn't retort anymore and sighed, "Are you in Hustleburg right now?"Being able to jump into the sea after Serena showed the weight of that woman in his heart.He was still alive at this moment, so he must have gone to look for Serena in the first place."Yes, the mercenary club will be handed over to you for now, I want Matthew to live."Byron didn't have any doubts and immediately set off with Vincent, leaving Hustleburg.Serena hung up the phone, her back already covered in sweat.She took a sip of water and went to Matthew's study to finish going through the pieces that were piling up.It was useless for her to worry here, if Byron believed her, he would search Matthew's whereabouts with all his might, she just had to wait for news.And while waiting for news, deal with Infinity Realm in the meantime.Later that night,

    That signature at the end of the piece was calm and strong, just like his nature.Serena pushed the piece away in exasperation without looking at it again or signing it.After taking care of the piece, she turned on the news and found that the person who had been talked about the most lately was Sophie.The last time Sophie had encouraged Roger to come after her and tried to get away with it, no way.But the news wasn't about Sophie's bad news, instead it was praising her, saying she was a woman of honor.And she deserved it?"Nathan, have someone go and beat Roger up again, it looks like Sophie has stabilized Roger again."Roger was a total loser and Sophie was a goddess in many people's hearts.Roger may be angry, but with a few coaxing words from Sophie, he has to be obediently trapped, a veritable lickspittle.Sophie's recent life can be said to be smooth, Winters Group development is getting better and better, her position is considered to be completely stabilized.Nathan nodded

    "Pull yourself together?"Serena's voice trailed off, her eyes scarlet, "Will Matthew come back if I pull myself together? Whatever Lorraine's intentions are, I'm going to make her pay for all of this."Blair's body shuddered, taken aback by the look in her eyes.But at the same time he felt relieved, this was the Serena he knew, "Get well, I've informed Judy and Scarlett, let them keep you company in the meantime."Speaking of Judy, his tone was softer and vaguely exasperated.Judy left that night without a second thought, he had thought that the other party had left Hustleburg for good, but he didn't realize that she had applied for a job as a college teacher and had resumed her teaching career.As long as she was still in Hustleburg, at least his heart wasn't so empty.Serena glanced down at her wrist and leaned back against the bed to close her eyes.Her mind still hurt, and mind control, as distinct from physical pain, could make a person completely lose themselves.She took a ti

    The doctor's hands shook with fear at the sight of such a deep gash, shivering as he secured this wrist with a brace and began to stitch.Serena didn't say a word, she couldn't even feel the needle between the flesh anymore.She kept her eyes open and stared blankly at the ceiling.The stitching process went on for over an hour, and the doctor was already sweating profusely.After carefully sterilizing it, he breathed a sigh of relief.Serena had fallen asleep by now, her forehead covered in sweat.Blair sent the maid in to change her while he and Nathan stood guard at the door.Only when they saw the maid come out did they re-enter the bedroom.If it wasn't for Serena's chest still heaving slightly, they would have thought she was dead.Nathan's heart was in a very bad place and he spoke in a hoarse voice, "So how do we get back to normal?"Blair was anxious and hated to turn around in place, "I don't know, Serena went to Vitec Technologies last time, I heard that she was locked in t

    The darkness became long, and all the evil, the hope, all of it dissipated.Nathan didn't know what was happening behind him, he couldn't hear anything but the sharp sound of a gunshot.It was a long run before he gasped and stopped, taking a few others with him and boarding the plane.With Matthew staying there, the others didn't come after them, and it wasn't until the moment the plane took off that Nathan pulled out the ring and looked at it.He no longer knew where it was, and he didn't dare wonder what Boss had been through.The gunshot must have come from Boss; he'd been killed, or killed himself, he didn't know.Back in Pines Ridge, the sky was foggy and the rain was still pouring down.Their party was in a sorry state, and standing at the front door of Pines Ridge, he caught a glimpse of Blair leaning against a pillar, smoking."Where's Matthew?"Blair's voice trailed off as he tossed his cigarette into a side trash can.Nathan didn't dare meet his eyes and could only hang his

    Noticing her lax pupils, Blair slashed directly at the back of her neck.Serena only felt a sharp pain coming from the back of her head and fainted.Blair held her up, his brows knitted tightly as he twisted his head to look at Ida and Jo, "Call the doctor."The doctor came quickly and gave Serena a full body checkup and finally prescribed some tranquilizers.Blair looked at the woman slipping into a coma with a horrible grimace on his face.Serena's state today was off, like someone who had been pushed to the brink, with devastation written all over her face.This was definitely not the Serena he knew, he took out his cell phone and made a call to Matthew.Matthew was already in Las Vegas, but the dance here hadn't taken place yet, and he was staying at the hotel for the time being.He had just gotten out of the bathroom when his cell phone rang, it was Blair.Before he left, he had asked Blair to help take care of Serena.Serena has been in a bad mood lately, her eyes always look li

    Hearing her say that, Jordan had no more qualms.Serena hung up the phone and lay back down on the bed.She touched the dagger under her pillow and drew it out, gazing at it intently.She really wanted to slit her wrist with this dagger, draining all the blood little by little so that she would feel better.She had just placed the dagger on her wrist when there was a knock at the door, she was startled and the dagger in her hand instantly fell to the floor with a crisp sound."Madam, what's wrong with you?"Ida asked anxiously from the doorway, probably hearing the sounds from inside and thinking something had happened to her.Serena slowly closed her eyes, pulled the ring off her finger and threw it down the window.A great sadness suddenly swept over her, causing her to cover the position of her heart as if she was about to lose her breath.After a long time, she took a deep breath and wiped the tears from her eyes before she opened the door to her room."Go get Jo."She went to Mat

    Jordan froze, letting go of the woman in his arms and pointing to the door, signaling the two to get out.Only after both beauties were gone from the area did he raise an eyebrow, "Serena, do you realize what you're saying?"He no longer called her but Serena."I know, didn't you ask me earlier if I wanted to team up with you? I promise."Jordan's brows tightened, Serena and Matthew's relationship didn't seem to have gotten this far, why did she suddenly want Matthew dead?And from the tone of voice, the hatred wasn't normally deep."How do I know you're not lying to me Serena, I'm afraid to trust you.""Matthew is going to Harrington's family headquarters in the near future, you team up with me, I'll tell you his route, I want him to never come back."Matthew was going to Harrington's family headquarters?Jordan's eyes flashed, maybe he should trust this woman for once, "Fine, you tell me his route, I'll have someone intercept it, Serena, don't regret it."Serena bowed her head, her

    Lorraine didn't answer her straight away whether she was or wasn't, she opened the door to the side of the car and got in.It was only when the window was about to close that she spoke, "What you want to do with it is your business, from the moment Maxwell started caring about you I knew that sooner or later he would have to pay for everything he had done."Serena didn't respond until the car drove away, then she bent over and whacked her knee.She got into her own car and, somewhat deflated, leaned her back back and closed her eyes.She'd actually gotten a bad feeling in her mind when Matthew had touched her knuckles, and now it was just a premonition that was being sat upon.Back in Pines Ridge, her legs felt as if they weighed a thousand pounds, and her stomach had been flooded with nausea.The more she suspected, the more the sickening feeling grew.She went upstairs and curled up in her own bed, thinking about Maxwell and really not having any other thoughts than the disgust that
