Chapter 115: Chapter 115

Sure enough, the next second Seth Sterling received a message from his subordinate, and his face immediately changed, unable to stop himself from cursing under his breath.

"Damn it, what the hell is wrong with The Apothecary Hall? Why are they holding up the batch of herbs I ordered?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the look Jocelyn gave him grew even icier, making Seth shiver involuntarily, "Sister-in-law, why are you looking at me like that? It’s kind of scary!"

After he said that, he quickly turned to Damian Quinn, "I’ve already paid for everything, and now The Apothecary Hall is doing this to me. This is just too much, Master Damian, you have to help me out here!"

Chase Sherman, who was standing by, couldn’t help but chuckle at his words and said, "Young Master Sterling, not even Master Damian can help you with this one!"

After all, the person behind The Apothecary Hall is Miss Serena, and even Master Damian has to take her mood into account!

"What are you kidding about? Is there anything in this world Master Damian can’t handle? It’s just a matter of whether he wants to help or not. There’s nothing he can’t tackle!" Seth instinctively refuted Chase Sherman’s words. "Although the boss behind The Apothecary Hall is mysterious and tough to deal with, with Master Damian’s intervention, what do we care about their backing? We’ll crush it all!"

"Wow, truly impressive!" Jocelyn sneered lightly, raising her pretty fox-like eyes to the man, "Do you dare?"

"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? What is The Apothecary Hall anyway? There’s nothing my Master Damian wouldn’t dare to do..."

Before Seth could finish speaking, Damian Quinn’s deep and magnetic voice chimed in.

Damian Quinn’s captivating peach blossom eyes were filled with helplessness and indulgence. The last time they took The Apothecary Hall’s Thousand Spirit Ginseng, it made the little lady so upset that he wouldn’t dare offend her again.

"Master Damian, how did you suddenly become so timid?!" Seth was utterly baffled and even more shocked.

Seeing Seth’s dumbfounded expression, Chase Sherman couldn’t hold back anymore and kindly revealed the truth.

"Young Master Sterling, the person behind The Apothecary Hall is Miss Serena!"

"What, sister-in-law is the owner of The Apothecary Hall?!"

After the initial shock, Seth Sterling immediately saw Jocelyn in a new light. He originally thought she was just a pretty ordinary girl, but it turns out she is deeply skilled and secretive!

No wonder she’s the one Master Damian has his eyes on!

Remembering what he had just said, Seth regretted it enough to want to slap himself in the face. He quickly flashed a sycophantic smile at Jocelyn.

"Sister-in-law, my apologies, I didn’t know you’re the owner behind The Apothecary Hall. I said some offensive things earlier. Please, sister-in-law, be the bigger person and don’t hold it against me!"

Jocelyn lazily raised her delicate brows, "Will you complain again next time?"

"I wouldn’t dare, wouldn’t dare..." Seth shook his head like a rattle, looking exceedingly humble.

"The herbs you need will be delivered to you on time."

Jocelyn hadn’t really intended to withhold the batch of herbs the Sterling Family requested. She just wanted to scare Seth a little. Now that he had admitted his mistake and pleaded, Jocelyn naturally wouldn’t press the matter any further.

"Thank you, sister-in-law!" Seth immediately beamed, shamelessly snuggling closer, "Sister-in-law, from now on, I’ll stick with you. Any whispers around Master Damian, and I’ll tell you right away!"

With Master Damian so henpecked, aligning with her is promising!

Hearing this, Jocelyn found his tactfulness quite pleasing and gave him a smile.

Damian’s eyes darkened instantly, finding Seth particularly annoying. He reached out to pull Seth away, his cold, sharp gaze piercing him like an ice blade.

"Stay away from my little friend."

"Tsk!" Seth clicked his tongue, "Master Damian, look at you being so petty, is it necessary to be this protective..."

Before he could finish, Damian shot another chilling glance his way, scaring Seth into shutting up immediately.

Ian Everett: [Serena, there are too many fans at the mall. Fourth Brother can’t get in. I’m waiting for you at the back door!]

After reading the message, Jocelyn put away her phone and glanced at his hand tightly clasped around her wrist, signaling him to let go.

Damian reluctantly released the little lady’s hand, his captivating peach blossom eyes warmly focused on her, his deep and magnetic voice imbued with a captivating allure.

"Little friend, when will you take this brother home to meet your parents?"

Upon hearing this, Jocelyn mischievously blinked her glistening fox-like eyes, "Don’t rush, you’ll meet them soon."

Hasn’t he been eager to annul the engagement with the Everett Family? Soon he would meet her mom and dad then!

You’ll meet them very soon...

Does the little lady mean she’s planning to take him to meet her parents soon?

Damian’s lips curled uncontrollably, his eyes and eyebrows filled with cheer, clearly in high spirits.

"Alright, this brother is looking forward to that day."

Jocelyn had just walked into the living room when she was immediately hugged by Jocelyn Sterling, who rushed over. Standing next to her was Ivan Everett, who obviously wanted to hug his beloved daughter too, but Jocelyn Sterling didn’t leave him any room. He could only stand helplessly by, eagerly watching Jocelyn, looking quite pitiful.

"Serena, it’s all our fault, we didn’t get the situation straight and ended up transferring a sum of money to Timothy Everett and his family!" Content orıginally comes from novel⸺fire.net

Ian Everett and Niall Everett had already informed them of what happened today, and Jocelyn Sterling and Ivan Everett were quite upset when they found out, immediately investigating how Jocelyn had been living in their home all these years.

The findings were infuriating and heart-wrenching; apart from Mrs. Everett genuinely treating Jocelyn well, the rest of Timothy Everett’s family treated their beloved daughter poorly!

To think they even thanked them for their care over the years by giving Timothy Everett’s family a sum of money, though it wasn’t much to them, knowing the truth, they’d rather throw it away than let it benefit the Everett family!

"Serena, Dad will make them pay for it and ensure their family never has a good life!"

Seeing the guilt written all over Jocelyn Sterling and Ivan Everett’s faces, Jocelyn gently reassured them, "Mom and Dad, you don’t have to handle this. I’ve already ensured their family won’t have a good day ahead!"

Cassia Everett watched as they expressed their palpable concern for Jocelyn, feeling exceptionally resentful, coldly scoffing in her heart.

No matter what, Timothy Everett’s family did raise her, yet Jocelyn showed no mercy dealing with them, truly a heartless ingrate!

A downright ungrateful wretch!
