Chapter 191 Dining at the Same Restaurant

"Hello?""Hey there, beautiful. Are you free this evening? How about dinner with me?" Mason's voice—always playful and carefree—came from the other end of the line."I…"As I hesitated, my gaze shifted toward Jethro's office. He had plans tonight with another woman, and I was about to answer Mason when he interjected."You've turned me down countless times already, Ms. Serena. Are you planning to reject me again today? You should know that I’ve never been refused by a woman before. Don't you think I deserve a chance?"Mason sounded a bit aggrieved. His support during my hospital stay made it hard to continually reject him despite his frivolous nature."Okay, let's do dinner. I'll call you after I get home to change after work," I relented, deciding to give Mason a chance. His flirty manner aside, he seemed genuine."Fantastic! I'll be waiting for your call!" Mason replied, his voice brimming with excitement.After hanging up, I glanced once more toward Jethro's office. Initiall

Chapter 192 You Dare Cuckold Me?!

Mason gazed at me, his face etched with concern.My mind was in turmoil, consumed by thoughts of Jethro, making me oblivious to Mason’s words. With a heavy head, I wondered how I could possibly have bumped into Jethro here."Rina?" Mason called out again, noticing my distraction. His expression was marked by worry."Sorry, what were you saying?" I responded, a little disoriented."You look troubled. Is everything okay?" Mason's expression paused as he looked at me, his eyes filled with confusion."I-I’m fine, I just need the restroom." I glanced at Jethro and saw he was also staring at me. Panicking, I stood up and fled to the restroom. Inside, after washing my hands, I looked at my flustered reflection in the mirror."Serena Hart, what are you afraid of? He’s dining with another woman. You’re just having a meal with a friend. Why are you so afraid?" I chided my reflection, frustrated that Jethro’s actions had unsettled me this much.After washing up, I stepped out, only to be

Chapter 193 I Have to Verify It Myself!

Frozen in place, it took several moments for me to regain my composure before heading back to my table. Upon returning, I couldn’t help but notice Jethro seated opposite the alluring woman, who seemed to be trying her best to captivate him. This irked me, stirring an impulse to get rid of her."Why were you gone so long, Rina? Are you feeling unwell?" Mason's voice carried a hint of worry and confusion over my delayed return."The restroom was a little crowded," I responded, quickly diverting my eyes to mask the real reason for my absence."The dishes are here, so let’s eat," the oblivious Mason said as he gently placed a piece of salmon on my plate.Mason’s gaze on me was gentle. Was he looking at me like I was more than a friend? I assumed I was imagining things.With a slight shake of my head, I told myself not to overthink it and started eating. Despite my efforts, my gaze involuntarily drifted toward Jethro. Our eyes met, and his face was stern and cold.Feeling unsettled, I

Chapter 194 You Must Never Betray Me

"You pervert! Let me go!" I fought back with all my might, the urge to slap him rising.Yet, I dared not."Listen to me, Serena Hart. You are my woman—Jethro Willow’s woman. I won't tolerate you getting too close to other men, do you understand?" Jethro's voice came out as a harsh growl, his stern gaze piercing through me.My heart quivered. For a moment, a thought flashed through my mind. Was it possible that Jethro was acting out of jealousy? Was he angry because I had dinner with Mason? The idea excited me, and I hoped it was true.I ceased my struggles, meeting his gaze intently. After a long pause, I stated firmly, "I understand, but he's really just a friend. I’d never sleep with another man before ending things with you."In my eyes and heart, there was only room for Jethro. How could I be intimate with another? Even if we ended our relationship, it’d be hard for me to accept someone else so soon. The path I was on with Jethro seemed lined with inevitable pain.Noticing my

Chapter 195 Worrying About Finding a House

Mom’s voice, filled with disappointment and anger, echoed through the phone."That's not what I mean, Mom. Renting a large house in Arrowdale is just really expensive. My current finances are tight, and my next paycheck is still a while away," I hurriedly explained when Mom misunderstood my point.I was in a difficult position. Of course, I wanted to provide Sean with a better recovery environment, but I simply couldn't afford it right now."I'll look for a smaller place for now. Once I'm paid next month, I'll try to find something more suitable, okay?"Negotiating seemed like my only option. I knew my mother wouldn't want Sean's needs overlooked, but I was stretched thin financially. If I were capable, I’d certainly find a better place for Sean."I think you're just stingy with your money. You've been working for so long. Can't you even afford to rent a house? Serena, I really raised you in vain. You’re reluctant to spend even a few thousand on us." Despite my explanations, Mom s

Chapter 196 An Unexpected Visitor at the Workplace

Jethro had already spent so much money on my family. How could I on top of that let him handle the housing for them?Tens of thousands might be trivial to him, but for someone like me, it was an astronomical figure. My indebtedness to him was mounting, and I wanted to avoid further obligations."Do you think you can afford it? If I'm not mistaken, all your savings are already spent, right?" Jethro's tone was calm, not a hint of displeasure against my refusal. He knew me well and even realized that my money had run out.I found myself speechless under Jethro’s perceptive gaze. My resources were stretched thin, yet I was adamant about not deepening my debt to him."I'll figure it out. I hope you won't interfere in this matter," I requested earnestly.My reluctance stemmed from two reasons. First, I didn't want to owe him, and second, I didn't want to give my family any opportunity to ask him for more money. Jethro owed nothing to them, and they had no right to keep asking him for mo

Chapter 197 Clinging to Jethro

Mom was utterly deaf to my explanations, and she assumed I was selfishly withholding funds."Can you please be reasonable, Mom? If I had money, I’d give it to you, but I don’t!"I felt increasingly agitated. Constrained by my limited resources, I couldn't fulfill her demands. How was I supposed to make her believe that I was truly broke?"I don’t care. You have to find a place for Sean's post-surgery rehabilitation today. I refuse to believe you can’t afford to rent a house!"Mom’s disdainful stare was like a cold blade. Was she really forcing me without a shred of sympathy for my struggles? I was her daughter. Even amid her disappointment, shouldn't there have been a hint of understanding for my situation?"Let's go to the bank, Mom. I’ll show you my account balance, and you can see for yourself whether I have money or not." I approached her, intending to take her to the bank.My frustration boiled over. If words failed, perhaps the stark reality of my empty account would speak

Chapter 198 Merciless Treatment

The pain in my backside was sharp, making me wince. Mom had shoved me with significant force, showing a startling lack of concern for my well-being.Jethro, who until then had maintained a stoic expression, suddenly became icy at the sight of my fall."Enough!" he thundered, his eyes ablaze with fury directed at Mom.Despite being older, Mom was visibly intimidated by Jethro's icy voice. She looked at him with eyes that betrayed a hint of panic."Mr. Jethro, I apologize for causing such a scene." Sensing Jethro's mounting anger, Mom quickly shifted gears, attempting to appease him with an apologetic tone."Settle your family matters at home, not at my company!" Jethro commanded, his voice carrying an authoritative edge. After issuing this firm reprimand, he turned and walked away.I struggled to my feet, still stinging from the pain and overwhelmed with hurt and anger from Mom's shove."Mr. Jethro! Wait! About what I asked you earlier, can you consider it please?" Mom called aft

I sat on the couch, engulfed in my thoughts. When I finally went to the bedroom, Jethro was already asleep. Lying next to him, I found myself restless, my mind burdened with family concerns.The following day at work, I was distracted and unproductive. As soon as the office hours ended, I embarked on a mission to find a suitable house. It was crucial to find an affordable place quickly to ensure Sean had a home after his hospital discharge.After searching near the hospital, I finally found an apartment that fit my budget. It was modest and small, yet it had the necessary amenities, including an accessible bathroom. The rent was 2,500 dollars a month, stretching my financial limits, but I had no choice but to take it.I looked at my nearly empty account with a heavy heart. With my paycheck still days away, I faced the stark reality of potentially going hungry. Years into my career, and here I was, reduced to such straits.In desperation, I reached out to Summer to borrow some money

Chapter 200 An Unexpected Encounter With Ignatz

After completing the discharge procedures, Jethro's secretary transported my family to the apartment I'd managed to rent. Once everything was in order, he left.Immediately after his departure, Mom, visibly dissatisfied with the apartment, confronted me. "This is the apartment you got for us? How do you expect us to live in such a cramped space?" she questioned.The two-bedroom apartment, though modest, was adequate for their needs. However, Mom was far from pleased."Mom, I know it's small, but it’s enough for the three of you. Please, can you make do with it for now?" I said, striving to calm her evident displeasure."Make do? I might be able to, but can Sean? He needs a comfortable environment to recover, and you rented this tiny place? What if he hurts himself on the closely placed furniture?" She pointed at the couch and coffee table in the living room, her tone laced with reproach."Mom, if you aren’t satisfied, perhaps you should look for an apartment yourself. If you can
