Chapter 114: Chapter 114
Elliot Everett found Ian Everett increasingly bothersome and expressionlessly photoshopped Ian out of the photo, leaving only Serena’s image for the screensaver.
The secretary, witnessing all this, was shocked and speechless, clearly not expecting their CEO to do something so childish.
Elliot didn’t find anything wrong with it. He had many brothers, but only one precious sister, who deserved special treatment!
"Quickly wrap things up here and book the earliest flight back to Imperia."
He couldn’t wait to get back to Imperia to see his sister!
The secretary immediately and respectfully agreed, "Yes, CEO!"
"Young Master Sterling, what are you looking at?"
The woman clinging to Seth Sterling’s arm curiously followed his gaze, and upon seeing Serena not far away, a flash of amazement appeared in her eyes before she spoke jealously.
"Young Master Sterling, you haven’t taken a liking to that young girl, have you!"
"Don’t say such nonsense!"
Seth’s usually carefree expression changed instantly, turning rare and serious.
That was Master Damian’s favorite young girl; he wouldn’t dare provoke her even with a hundred times the courage!
But didn’t Master Damian say she had already agreed to call off the engagement with Ian Everett? Yet they looked so intimate, hardly like people who were about to call off an engagement.
Seth smirked playfully, then reverted to his usual nonchalant demeanor.
Heh, heh, heh, was Master Damian getting cuckolded?
Seth immediately took out his phone to capture the scene and send a message to Damian Quinn.
[Master Damian, I’m here shopping with my new girlfriend, guess what I saw!]
Damian Quinn, busy with his paperwork, didn’t bother responding to him, but the photo Seth sent the next second made his strikingly handsome face instantly chill with an icy menace.
[Master Damian, little sis-in-law and Ian Everett look so intimate, not like people who are about to call off an engagement!]
Damian’s expression turned even colder, emitting a terrifying aura that was chilling to the bone.
Did the young girl refuse to meet him today because she had things to handle, only to see Ian Everett?
Damian’s heart boiled with uncontrollable rage, his eyes filled with a hint of murderous intent.
It must have been Ian Everett pestering his girl, the warning given last time clearly wasn’t enough!
This time, he had to publicly assert his dominance over Ian Everett, making it clear that Serena was his, and preventing Everett from bothering Serena again!
"Prepare the car, we’re going to the mall!"
Seeing Damian’s terrifying demeanor, Chase Sherman didn’t dare say anything further, responding immediately, "Yes, Master Damian!"
Seth Sterling, unaware of the storm his actions would trigger, after messaging Damian Quinn, couldn’t resist messaging Elliot Everett.
[Hahaha, seems like Master Damian is getting cuckolded by his little girlfriend!]
Across the ocean, Elliot Everett, upon seeing the message, showed more expression on his usually impassive face.
Perhaps it was because Damian’s young girlfriend was about the same age as his sister that he particularly disapproved of Damian’s older man preying on the young girl’s approach.
So, he chuckled gleefully.
Who asked him to be a beast instead of a good person?
Elliot strengthened his resolve to dissolve his sister’s engagement with the Quinn Family as soon as he returned to Imperia!
"Big brother will definitely be so jealous of me!"
Ian Everett tilted his chin up proudly, basking in his boastful joy, while Serena’s attention was elsewhere, her brow slightly furrowed, as she thought she saw Seth Sterling just now...
"Hey, look, isn’t that person over there Ian?"
"Aaaah, it really does look like..."
"What do you mean ’looks like’! It’s Ian himself!!!"
Ian quickly realized the problem; he had been so preoccupied taking photos with Serena that he forgot to wear his mask and sunglasses again.
He hastily scrambled to put them back on, but it was too late, the fans who recognized him began rushing over, shouting incessantly.
"Brother, give us an autograph..." Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on novel⦿fire.net
"Oh no, I’ve been recognized. Serena, wait here for a moment, I need to hide!"
As fans recognizing him grew in numbers, causing a commotion, Ian had no choice but to hastily instruct Serena a few words and ran towards the mall entrance.
Serena felt uneasy, her brows knitting together as she swiftly chased after him, only to collide into a man striding through the door as she reached the entrance.
Damian Quinn’s icy expression softened instantly upon seeing the young girl in his arms, instinctively placing his large hand on her waist to steady her.
The young girl wore rabbit ears, so adorably tempting they invited "mischief"...
Damian’s ire dissipated at once, aside from the fact she wasn’t the one he was upset with to begin with.
With profound eyes, Damian’s slender, jade-like fingers gently pinched her rabbit ears, a low, deep chuckle rumbling in his throat, sultry and beguiling, making one’s ears tingle.
"Why is my young girl so cute today?"
Serena, under the heat of his intense, affectionate gaze, felt her ears turn red, puzzled as to why he appeared suddenly?
The more Damian thought about Ian Everett putting them on her, the more displeased he became, removing the rabbit ears from her head, yet his tone remained gentle, coaxing her.
"Your brother will get you new ones, I’m confiscating these."
Every little bunny tail or costume on his girl would look adorable...
But only for him to see!
Though his tone seemed normal, Serena found something inexplicably odd about it, her ears burning up even more.
"Next time, you’re not allowed to privately meet your lousy fiancée again," Damian pinched the rabbit ears tightly, his bewitching, sultry eyes narrowing dangerously, "Your brother would get jealous!"
"If Ian Everett dares to bother you again, tell your brother, I’ll handle it!"
Serena finally understood why he suddenly showed up; it was because of this...
"Master Damian, how did you get here so fast?!" Seth Sterling arrived briskly, his expression betraying shock seeing Damian, "It’s only been about ten minutes since I messaged you..."
So he was the tattletale!
Serena’s pair of exquisite, alluring fox eyes narrowed, casting a chilling glance at Seth, taking her phone to message The Apothecary Hall.
[Hold off on sending the medicine batch for the Sterling Family.]
The reply came swiftly, [Understood, boss!]
Facing Serena’s gaze, Seth suddenly felt a chill down his back, involuntarily shivering; why did he feel he was about to be in trouble...
