"No way, babe, you can’t drink." Claire Keaton kindly inserted a straw for her and placed the milk in her hand. "Just have the milk. If my master finds out I took you drinking, I’m doomed!"
Her beloved is the treasure in master’s heart, and everyone’s darling!
The phone suddenly vibrated vigorously. Serena saw that it was Bianca Everett calling and immediately stood up.
It was too noisy on the second floor. Serena told Claire Keaton she was heading to the restroom and answered Bianca Everett’s call, softly calling out, "Third Brother." Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs noᴠelfire.net
Hearing the words "Third Brother," Bianca’s heart softened. How could his lovely little sister be so obedient!
She’s so well-behaved and makes people feel so protective!
"Serena, where are you now? Your third brother is coming to take you home!"
Serena wasn’t good at lying and spoke truthfully, "I’m hanging out with friends at a bar."
"What?" Hearing this, Bianca instinctively frowned and then said, "Serena, bars are a mixed bag and too unsafe. Your third brother will come keep you company right away!"
Before Serena could refuse, Bianca hung up the phone and hurried out.
Looking at the disconnected call, Serena helplessly put away her phone and prepared to leave the restroom.
Unexpectedly, the restroom door suddenly pushed open, and a group of heavily made-up women walked in. If Serena hadn’t reacted quickly, she would have bumped into them.
Seeing Serena’s exquisite and beautiful face, a flash of amazement appeared in their eyes. Annie, the leader, immediately recognized her as the woman who caught Seth Sterling’s attention earlier.
Seth couldn’t clearly see her face from where he stood, but Annie, positioned at the door, saw her clearly.
Thinking about how Seth had fixated his gaze on her earlier, jealousy immediately surfaced in Annie’s heart. She glared at Serena with an unfriendly expression.
"Are you blind? You have eyes and don’t know how to look where you’re going, almost bumping into me!"
Hearing her deliberately provocative tone, Serena didn’t indulge her and replied with a cold, calm voice.
"It was you all who almost bumped into me."
"I said you bumped into me, so you bumped into me!" Annie, seeing Serena dare to retort, grew more displeased and arrogantly said, "You kneel and apologize to me now!"
The women with her quickly chimed in to flatter and support her.
"Exactly, we all saw you bump into Annie, don’t you know how expensive her clothes are? They’re all stained!"
"Yes, our Annie is kind-hearted, just letting you kneel and apologize without demanding compensation is already being nice!"
"Yeah, yeah, you better kneel and apologize to win Annie’s forgiveness!"
Serena’s exquisite eyebrows lazily raised, speaking nonchalantly, "If you kneel down and apologize, I might forgive you all too."
"You want me to kneel and apologize to you?" Hearing this, Annie’s face turned even uglier as she glared at Serena viciously, "Do you have a death wish?"
Serena, irritated, squinted her eyes slightly, "You’re the one with the death wish. Get lost."
"Oh my god, Annie, she dare speak to you like that!!!"
The crowd following Annie immediately egged her on.
"Annie, this woman clearly doesn’t take you seriously, you must teach her a lesson!"
"Exactly, she dares to contradict you, Annie. She deserves to be taught a good lesson!"
Unwilling to lose face in front of everyone, Annie stared at Serena with a cruel look, "You’re right, today I’m going to teach this bitch a lesson!"
With that, Annie raised her hand and aimed a slap at Serena, her eyes filled with malice.
She wanted to swell that bitch’s face and see how she could still catch Seth’s attention!
Just as the slap was about to land on Serena’s face, Annie smiled triumphantly, but in the next second, her wrist was firmly gripped by a hand.
The hand on Annie’s wrist appeared fragile, but no matter how she struggled, she couldn’t shake it off. Frustrated, she began to curse.
"You damned bitch..."
Before she finished her foul language, Serena’s eyes turned cold, and she tightened her grip on Annie’s wrist, making her scream like a slaughtered pig.
"Ah... It hurts... My hand is broken!"
Hearing her piercing scream, Serena frowned in disgust, then casually tossed her hand away like trash, taking out a wet tissue and carefully wiping her hands. She spoke calmly.
"It’s not broken, just dislocated."
Considering she’s a woman, Serena was merciful; if it had been a man, his hand would have been ruined.
Seeing Serena’s nonchalant demeanor, the malice in Annie’s eyes deepened, her teeth grinding with resentment. Unwilling to give up, she raised her other hand to strike Serena.
"Dare to hurt my hand; I’m going to beat you to death, you bitch!"
Seeing her persistent defiance, Serena’s gaze turned icy. Not only did she avoid Annie’s touch, but she also countered with a resounding slap to Annie’s face.
"Ah... You dare hit me?"
Clutching her swelling, reddening face, Annie clearly hadn’t expected Serena to slap back, glaring at her with intense hatred.
"Do you know who my boyfriend is? My boyfriend is Young Master Sterling, you’ll regret hitting me!"
Young Master Sterling?
Serena’s captivating fox-like eyes narrowed a tad, her tongue pressed against her back teeth.
Could she be referring to Seth Sterling? Tsk, could it be such a coincidence!
Seeing Serena’s expression, Annie thought she was scared, enduring her pain smugly and reaching for her phone.
Her voice was as sweet as honey, contrasting her previous harshness as she spoke into the phone.
"Boohoo, Young Master Sterling, I was bullied, come and avenge me!"
Upon hearing this, Seth Sterling immediately felt furious. Annie was his date today; anyone bullying her was indirectly slapping him in the face!
He couldn’t swallow this anger!
Seth Sterling responded angrily, "Who’s blind enough to bully you? I’ll come over right now and teach them a lesson!"
Hearing this, Annie felt incredibly pleased, her voice coquettish, "Alright, Young Master Sterling, I’ll wait for you!"
Once she hung up, Annie’s demeanor changed again, resuming her arrogant stance as she looked at Serena and spoke viciously, "Young Master Sterling is on his way to stand up for me. You’re dead, you bitch!"
