"Serena, are you really going to break off your engagement with Damian?" ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel✦fire.net
Seeing Serena turn and walk away, Crystal Joyce quickly suppressed the joy in her heart and chased after her, putting on a concerned look.
"If you agree just like that, you’ll definitely regret it later. Serena, you can’t act impulsively!"
Serena stopped in her tracks, her cold, aloof gaze falling on her, and her voice was icy and elegant.
"It’s just a man, why would I regret it? Whatever the Quinn Family has, the Everett Family also has. Don’t forget, the Everett Family is the wealthiest in Imperia! Why should I suffer grievances at the Quinn Family?"
The girl’s tone was incredibly defiant.
On the surface, Crystal Joyce still wore a worried expression, but inwardly she was overjoyed.
That bitch Serena is such a fool, the Everett Family is merely the wealthiest in Imperia! But the whole of Imperia listens to Damian Quinn!
He also has significant backing, although she hasn’t figured it out yet, it’s obvious that Damian Quinn’s power isn’t to be underestimated.
Yet now, that fool Serena agreed to break off the engagement so easily, hahaha!
Watching Serena leave, Crystal was happy inside, but still pretended to say, "Damian, everything Serena said just now was surely in anger, you don’t have to take it seriously!"
Recalling the glance the young girl gave him, Damian Quinn’s eyes grew even more profound, ignoring Crystal Joyce, instead, he fixed his gaze on Old Mrs. Quinn, his voice cold.
"Grandmother, are you satisfied now?"
This was the first time Damian Quinn addressed the old lady in such a tone!
Crystal’s suspicions in her heart dissipated a bit more, her lips couldn’t help but curl up.
For a proud figure like Damian Quinn, Serena actually dared to treat him this way, they’re finished!
Hahaha, this makes her so delighted!
"Get in touch with the media reporters and spread the news about calling off the engagement between me and Damian Quinn."
On hearing this, Chase Sherman’s face instantly changed, speaking in horror, "Miss Serena, are you serious?!"
Serena was amused by his doomsday-like expression, her tone languid, "Of course, since Grandmother is opposed to this marriage, for her to take better care of her health, the marriage is called off."
Chase opened his mouth wanting to say more, but was interrupted by Serena.
With those words, Serena headed towards the elevator, preparing to go downstairs, but just halfway there, she was pulled into the staircase by a pair of well-defined hands.
"Baby, your acting earlier was quite convincing, even I almost believed it."
The man’s warm breath poured onto Serena’s neck, and those large hands firmly grasped her slender waist, preventing her from moving.
Unable to free herself, Serena had no choice but to wrap her arm around the man’s neck and talk business.
"I’ve already found out why Grandmother suddenly acted so out of character, she was drugged with Soul Hooking Fragrance."
At this point, Serena’s extremely beautiful fox-like eyes instantly turned cold.
Soul Hooking Fragrance can manipulate a person’s mind, so it’s not easily detected, but if used long-term, it poses significant harm to the body, especially given Grandmother’s old age, it’s even more harmful to her health.
Previously, Old Mrs. Quinn was especially resistant to her approach, so she never had the chance to get close, naturally she couldn’t smell that strange scent on her.
"I don’t want to break off our engagement, but at the time if I didn’t agree, the only one who’d get hurt was Grandmother. She would control Grandmother to do more reckless things, and Grandmother’s body couldn’t take it!"
Listening to the girl’s explanation, Damian Quinn held her even tighter, planting delicate kisses on her smooth earlobe, his voice hoarse.
"I know all of this, but Serena, hearing the words ’break off engagement’ from your mouth, it still makes me feel sad..."
