Chapter 381

When Michael got together with Serena, he had never loved her from the bottom of his heart. She was just an insignificant nobody who had never caught his eye.Perhaps it had been too foolish of her to shower this man with unconditional love. She had actually gambled much of her youth on her relationship with him.Having failed in the gamble, Serena felt a sharp pain as if a needle was thrust into her heart.Nevertheless, she decided not to do such stupid things anymore. She wanted to be her true self.Christina smiled coldly while staring at Serena. Although Serena was wearing a smile, her mind had clearly wandered elsewhere.Serena was not as skillful as Sophia in terms of acting. However, she had embodied the essence of her mother’s character. Being able to keep up the pretense in front of Michael up to this point, Serena was considered brilliant.At least Serena was more brilliant than her mother. She could not smile at someone who she hated while pretending as if everything w

When John spontaneously struck up a conversation with Michael, Sophia and Serena were all smiles. All of them seemed to be living in harmony. Seeing how they were acting professionally made Christina feel like snickering. When Miss Laura was serving dinner, she asked all of them to enjoy the food while it was still hot. Sophia and Serena were most active during dinner, taking turns to place more food into Christina’s bowl. Their eager looks filled Christina with disgust. At last, Christina could not bear with their behavior anymore. The moment Sophia took more food for her, she moved her bowl away. John was aware that Christina disliked how Sophia was behaving, so he stopped Sophia. “Sophia, we’re family. There’s no need to be overly courteous. Just eat uninhibitedly.” What an act they were putting on during the meal. After dinner, Michael went to John’s study to talk to him.Once they entered the study, John’s smile faltered as his expression became somber. “Michael, tell me wh

Christina waited absentmindedly for some time before Serena and Sophia reappeared with a plate of fruits. Serena smiled as she placed the plate on the table. “Elder Sister, please help yourself.”A faint smile flashed across Christina’s face. “I’m afraid to disturb my digestion. Miss Garcia, don’t be shy though.”“I’m sorry!” Serena apologized sincerely. “I was at fault before. Forgive me!”The corners of Christina’s lips curled into an enigmatic smile. “You’re being too serious.”She refused to accept the apology. The smile on Serena’s face vanished instantly as she blinked pitifully at the former with glistening eyes.“I made a mistake. Wendy was the one trying to drive a wedge between us. I wasn’t able to think properly and went along with it… I don’t feel good about this. We’re sisters, after all…”Serena choked with emotions as two drops of tears rolled down her beautiful face. Christina was silently amazed! This woman was indeed a professional actress!If she remembered co

“What do you mean?”“It’s silly of me. I always thought kneeling down to beg for forgiveness is a scene you only see in movies. I didn’t expect coming over for dinner here would give me a chance to see such an act.” Christina rose to her feet as she spoke, “Mayor Garcia, thanks for the dinner, but I’m not staying to watch the performance. It’s not really interesting. Spend more effort into rehearsing and try harder next time to tug at my heartstrings!”Then, without glancing in John’s direction, she turned around to leave. Naturally, Michael was not staying without her. He mumbled his goodbye to John before running after the woman.When the two silhouettes disappeared into the distance, John pulled a long face.Christina’s words reminded him of something. Serena would not have chosen this time to apologize if she was genuinely doing it. He looked over his shoulder at the woman who was still kneeling on the ground. “Why are you still doing that? Do you think you’ve not disgraced y

“Back then, Michael offered Christina a huge sum of money so that she could live the rest of her life without concern. Knowing it was a small amount for the Larson family, she deliberately left the household without a single penny in her name to make him guilty. She’s a treacherous woman.”Winona described Christina as a completely worthless person whose son even became an illegitimate child who she had with Sean.“Old Madam Young knew Christina was scheming against her grandson, so she insisted on not letting her into the family. Christina shamelessly stayed by Sean for three years.

“I want to know if you genuinely want to be with Michael.”Christina scoffed. “What does it matter to you if I want to be with him, Miss Miller?”Based on Suzy’s tone, Christina was certain the former was interested in Michael. Although she did not see Suzy as the same type of person as Serena, in general, she despised women who had no respect for themselves.This only made her more disgusted with Michael. He claimed to have cut ties with Serena, but here came Suzy before that was even accomplished.He told her of his desire to start over, but there were still these different women pestering him. He could not have been telling the truth.“Miss Williams, I’ll wish you two happiness if you genuinely want to be with him. Otherwise, I hope you’ll stop bothering him and leave him for good.”Christina was annoyed. “Miss Miller, my decision is none of your business.”“I… I’m his friend, so it’s natural that I care for him!”“Friends? Are you a real friend or a friend with benefits?” T

Christina’s gaze was filled with evident disdain and despise. “Actually, Miss Miller, there’s no need for you to get upset at me. You’re young and pretty. Just a tiny bit more effort and Michael will definitely be unable to leave your side!”“I’m not as shameless as you! I simply can’t bear to see you acting all bold and confident while stealing someone else’s fiancé. It’s another story if you love Michael, but you’re just using him for revenge. Your twisted personality makes you jealous of others' happiness!”Infuriated, Suzy could not care less about speaking politely. “You’re calling me a third party, but aren’t you a homewrecker yourself? Do you think you’re nobler than me?”What was this about? Could people not tell right from wrong anymore? Even a homewrecker was starting to seek justice for another homewrecker.“I’ve never called myself noble and I wish you’ll not pretend to be that in front of me. I’ve seen many disgusting things recently, but it’s surely a first to see an

Suzy had just met up with Christina. The latter’s overbearing arrogance further confirmed Winona’s words.“Christina’s such a mean person. She must be using Michael’s guilt against him, constantly keeping him in the dark. I can’t let her behave like that anymore.”Winona echoed, “Exactly! Poor Larson family. They only have one son after several generations, yet Michael insists on wasting it all for Christina. Heather’s dream of having a grandkid is probably never going to happen!”“Mother, what can we do?”A light flashed across Winona’s eyes. “Suzy, tell me, do you like Michael?”Suzy’s cheeks turned red. “Mom, what’s the point of asking that?”“Heather wants you to have a child with Michael. She promises a grand sum upon the birth of the child.”Winona was trying to probe into the other woman’s mind. In her opinion, Serena was the best fit for Michael, but she needed to know if Suzy was interested in him too.“No, I’ll never do that!” Suzy was firm in her stance. Although she

Francis regretted the minute he handed the stadium blueprint to Winona. She was known for going back on her words. Even if he had lent her a hand, she might not stop pestering him as promised. He should not have believed her in the first place.He gave this a long consideration. The main competitors for this project were the Henderson family and the Larson family. Francis reckoned he should pay Matthew a visit.The latter was shocked to see him outside of his office.Francis cut to the chase. “I want to offer you a deal.”“What sort of deal?”“I’ll help you acquire the stadium construction project and in return, you’ll help Christina and I emigrate to another country so no one can find us.”“Christina’s willing to leave?”“She’s reluctant now simply because of Travis. We can leave whenever the time is right.”“Sure, I’ll sort out the immigration process. You can leave anytime you wish!” Matthew promised and instructed his staff to handle it right away.Francis retrieved a pi
