Fiona Dunn wasn’t really interested in such events, but needing to understand the situation, she urgently followed Seraphina Sinclair out.
Joel White was about to call out to her, but Camille White stopped him: "Let her go, godmother needs someone to comfort her now."
Seraphina Sinclair was just pretending to be strong, after spending so much time together, how could they not understand?
But at times , the two men didn’t know how to comfort her, so sending chatterbox Fiona would be the better option.
In fact, they all underestimated Seraphina Sinclair’s resilience.
Just as she said, it’s just a man. Leaving him won’t kill her, will it?
Fiona Dunn thought when Seraphina got home, she’d have a good cry. Unexpectedly, there were no tears or tantrums, not even a hint of emotion, as she even had lunch with Jude Sinclair.
What kind of situation is this?
Fiona couldn’t understand Seraphina’s actions and circled around her: "Are you really not upset at all? That was your partner, just snatched away by Nina Kerr, and you’re unmoved?"
"Then what do you want me to do?" Seraphina sipped her corn chowder, her eyes slightly narrowed, without any reaction.
"At the very least, you should go up and beat Nina Kerr and call her a homewrecker! That’s how a queen should handle it." Fiona looked at Seraphina with disdain, "Where did your previous assertiveness go? Now you’re acting like a coward."
Seraphina put down her spoon, her lips curled with a hint of coldness: "Causing a scene over a man who doesn’t love you, that’s the most foolish way. Even if it’s a breakup, I must leave with dignity, otherwise wouldn’t it play right into Nina Kerr’s hands?"
"Hearing you say that, it makes some sense." Fiona thought carefully, realizing there was some truth to it, but she didn’t understand, "I think you surely have many ways to make Nina lose face. Why didn’t you do anything? This isn’t like you at all."
In the past, if Seraphina was disgusted by Nina, she wouldn’t just let it go, at least making Nina miserable for a few days.
This time, even though Seraphina left gracefully, it seemed too easy on that little vixen, Nina.
Exactly. Seraphina didn’t understand either.
She shouldn’t be so indecisive. When facing a heartbreaker and his new flame, why was she the one fleeing?
They’re the ones who did wrong, why should she leave?
Even if someone had to go, it should be them.
Thinking of this, Seraphina’s beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, realizing that her feelings for Desmond Fairchild were deeper than she imagined.
Otherwise, just as Fiona said, today, even at the risk of it all, she should have made sure that couple of cheaters lost face.
But why didn’t she do that? Most likely because she couldn’t bear it, right? ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by NoveI-Fire.ɴet
Her rosy lips twisted into a bitter curve, and Seraphina felt a prickling pain in her heart, so intense it was hard to breathe.
"Seraphina Sinclair, I think you shouldn’t take it too hard. A fickle man like that isn’t worth it." Fiona said with overflowing enthusiasm, slapping Seraphina on the shoulder, and suddenly, a plan flashed in her eyes, "Since this man doesn’t know how to cherish you, let’s find a man who will, and take him to meet grandpa right now to enrage those cheaters."
Jude Sinclair agreed wholeheartedly, immediately aligning with Fiona: "Fiona, you’re finally speaking sense."
Fiona’s little face darkened: "Are you praising me?"
"Of course." Jude replied earnestly.
"Forget it, these things aren’t important. The main task now is to find your mommy a man even better than Desmond. We need to show them that we don’t care about Desmond Fairchild at all, only someone like Nina would consider a discarded man a treasure. If we want an outstanding man, isn’t it easy to find one?"
Fiona immediately sprang into action, contacting her friends and family to organize a matchmaking event for Seraphina.
Seraphina’s mind went blank, unable to refuse before the invitations went out.
However, Fiona wasn’t dumb enough to publicly announce Seraphina’s matchmaking. She did it covertly within her social circle. After all, to make a big deal out of the matchmaking would have clearly been to show how much Nina had affected her.
She couldn’t let that little vixen, Nina, feel triumphant.
Whenever Fiona talked about Nina with gritted teeth, Seraphina found it odd. There was a five or six-year age gap between the two of them, and though they met often, Nina always maintained a refined demeanor. It seemed unlikely she would have offended Fiona.
What could be the reason for Fiona’s aversion to Nina?
As she pondered, Seraphina couldn’t help but ask aloud.
When asked why she hated Nina, Fiona wiped away her bitter tears: "The past is too painful to recall, better not to mention it."
"Fiona, please tell us, I’m very curious." Jude blinked moist, wide eyes at Fiona expectantly.
Fiona couldn’t resist such a cute plea and began to narrate her own bitter past in detail.
It turned out Fiona and Nina had attended the same school on Diamond Island, a prestigious institution offering grades from kindergarten to high school.
So, before Nina graduated high school, they frequently ran into each other at school, as both were the most famous girls on Diamond Island. Although they were several years apart in age, they were often compared.
Nina was a classic example of a well-bred lady, while Fiona was carefree and lacked any noble airs.
Nina spent her days practicing flower arranging, tea ceremony, and even the guqin, whereas Fiona learned taekwondo, sanda, and fencing.
In comparison, one was a refined lady, while the other seemed more like a tomboy.
So whenever the topic of Nina came up, people would say that, although both were from noble families, Fiona wasn’t a bit comparable to Nina. After all, the White Family and the Dunn Family were old friends, yet the gap between them seemed vast indeed.
Fiona, being broad-minded, didn’t care much for others’ opinions.
So she never competed for attention, nor did she intend to be rivals with Nina.
But one time in the restroom, she overheard Nina chatting with other students. The conversation was about Nina and herself, mostly saying she couldn’t match up to Nina.
Initially, Fiona didn’t care, until Nina spoke: "Don’t say that, Fiona is just young and doesn’t refuse to learn noble etiquette. Besides, Fiona is already Joel’s fiancée, as long as Joel doesn’t mind, that’s all that matters."
"I see, so it’s because she latched onto Eldest Master White and got cocky. Someone like her, with no trace of femininity, Eldest Master White definitely won’t like. I bet he’ll break off the engagement in a couple of years." Student A laughed mockingly.
"That’s not true, Fiona may not know much, but she’s very cute, and Joel likes her a lot." Nina seemed unwilling to hear others speak ill of Fiona and couldn’t help but rebut.
