Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At the Grant family.
On the lawn outside the villa, Selena Rivers and the servants were teaching Eva Grant how to walk. The little one staggered as she took a few aided steps with her short legs. Her chubby face was flushed red as she giggled non-stop.
Selena was bent over a meter away from Eva and opened her arms to her as she called out softly, “Eva, come over quickly. Mommy is here.”
Serenity stood not far away and looked at them quietly.
This was her sister, the wife of the man she loved the most, and their daughter.
Thinking of that man filled her heart with sorrow. He now had a wife and daughter, and he was happy. What was the point of clinging to the love she had in the past?
At this moment, she knew that no matter how early the two of them met, no matter how much they had loved each other, they would always be separated in the crowd until they gradually drifted apart.
A servant looked up and saw Serenity not far away. He kindly called out to her. “Miss Rivers.”
When Selena heard the servant, she stood up and turned around. A trace of surprise flashed across her eyes, and then she smiled and said, “Serenity, why didn’t you say anything when you came?”
She was wearing a knitted sweater over a light green dress today. Selena usually had a gentle and quiet temperament.
Even after giving birth, her figure was still slim and her delicate cheeks were still rosy.
Serenity walked forward and picked up Eva, who was babbling. With a smile, she said, “Calvin Gilbert asked me to pass a document to… Brother-In-Law.”
“He’s in the study upstairs,” said Selena with a smile.
Eva was becoming quite unruly in Serenity’s arms as the former’s chubby little hand grabbed the latter’s collar while another waving little hand inadvertently brushed across Serenity’s cheek.
Serenity’s skin was as tender as butter, so the brush left a light cut which looked a little painful.
Selena exclaimed and immediately went forward to take Eva before handing her daughter over to the servant beside her. She looked at the red mark on Serenity’s face and apologetically said, “Go in and 1’11 apply some medicine for you.”
A woman’s appearance was for the person she liked. Although it was only a small scar, it would not be good if it left a scar, especially not on the face.
But Serenity didn’t care much about her appearance. She smiled with her eyes and looked indifferent.
“The child is naughty. It’s fine.”
The servants put Eva down in a safe place as they received instructions from Selena to serve some fruits and light refreshments on the lawn.
“And tell John that Serenity is here.”
Serenity had no intention of staying any longer so she took out a document from her bag and handed it to Selena.
“I still have something to do. You can give it to him.”
Selena wanted her sister to stay for dinner, but the latter rejected her tactfully.
Before she returned to the country, she had repeatedly reminded herself that John Grant and Selena Rivers were already married, so she should stop dreaming.
One was her childhood sweetheart and the other was her sister who loved her so much. She could not destroy their marriage.
However, whenever she faced the two of them, she would feel a surge of jealousy in her heart.
Yes, it was jealousy.
She knew very well that their relationship was a betrayal to her.
The two people she was closest to and trusted most had ruthlessly killed her love life.
She couldn’t calmly ignore the pain they had once caused her, so she could only avoid them.
In the study room on the second floor.
John Grant stood in front of the window in his home clothes, looking quietly at the lawn downstairs. He was already holding the documents that had just been sent up by the servants.
As he watched Serenity leave, a few once-hidden emotions surged beneath his deep gaze. His fingers holding the document gradually tightened, causing the document to crumple..
