Chapter 140: Chapter 140
Damian Quinn gazed at her with eyes growing increasingly tender and affectionate, his deep, magnetic voice coaxing her slowly and deliberately.
"Little one, after Grandma is discharged, and after I call off the engagement with the Everett Family, I’ll go to your house to propose, okay?"
He couldn’t wait any longer to have the young girl officially acknowledged as his, so he wouldn’t worry about her being snatched away by some other boy...
Hearing this, Serena couldn’t help but frown.
Going to her house to call off the engagement and then propose?
Heh, he certainly has a way about him! But if he does that, he’ll probably be kicked out by Mom and Dad!
Seeing the young girl frown, Damian Quinn’s heart tightened suddenly, a rare moment of panic as his dark eyes grew deeper and darker.
"Serena, you don’t want to?"
Serena nodded, "I really don’t."
She didn’t want to see him being kicked out by Mom and Dad...
"Miss Serena, you’ve worked hard treating the old lady, I especially went to get you various drinks and bubble tea, see which one you’d like to drink?"
Chase Sherman came running over with a big bundle of drinks and bubble teas, along with snacks and pastries, presenting them to Serena with a face full of cheer.
As long as he pleased Miss Serena, he wouldn’t have to go to Africa!
With this thought in mind, Chase Sherman became even more attentive, "Miss Serena, I figured you must be exhausted after treating the old lady, so I bought a lot of pastries and snacks, have some to fill your stomach!"
Serena was indeed hungry, took the pastries from his hands, and smiled politely, "Thank you, Assistant Sherman."
"No need to thank me! As long as you like them, Miss Serena!"
Serena had just eaten a piece of pastry when she received a message from Jude Ford.
Jude Ford: [Boss, five hundred million has been received.]
Jude Ford: [That fool Cassia Everett keeps urging us to capture you quickly, she’s very anxious.]
Seeing these messages, Serena’s eyes turned cold, flashing with a hint of murderous intent, her slender fingers quickly replying.
[Proceed with the original plan, I’m coming over right away.]
Jude Ford replied swiftly.
Serena put away her phone, turned to the man and said, "I have something to do, I’m heading out, thanks for the pastries, Assistant Sherman."
Watching the young girl’s back, Damian Quinn’s face darkened a few shades, wanting to stop her and ask why she didn’t want him to propose, but knowing the young girl’s nature, if he stopped her forcibly now, she’d surely be angry...
Standing to the side, Chase Sherman was grinning happily, it seemed Miss Serena liked the pastries he bought, tomorrow, when he went to plead with her, he wouldn’t have to go to Africa!
He was indeed a little smart cookie!
But just as Chase Sherman was brimming with smugness, Damian Quinn’s gaze, cold as ice, fell upon him, and his anger flared on him, making him shiver.
"You’re being so diligent today, planning to poach her from me?"
Chase Sherman was so frightened he nearly collapsed to his knees, shaking his head vigorously like a rattle.
"No, no, Master Damian, you’ve misunderstood... I wouldn’t dare poach her from you..."
Damian Quinn had no patience to let him finish, his devilishly handsome face full of menace, "You’ll be on a plane to Africa tonight."
"Master Damian, please, no..."
Chase Sherman was on the verge of tears, whom exactly did he offend!
Why was he being sent to Africa ahead of schedule, boohoo!
Cassia Everett had arrived early at the agreed location, her eyes gleaming with malice.
"Where are they? The Netherworld Syndicate agreed to capture that bitch Serena Everett first! Why haven’t they brought that bitch Serena over yet?"
She was eagerly yearning to humiliate Serena Everett severely!
Jude Ford, wearing a golden mask, adding a veil of mystery, spoke with distaste and iciness, "She’ll be brought over soon, The Netherworld Syndicate always keeps its promises."
Cassia Everett knew The Netherworld Syndicate had a good reputation on the dark web and felt assured, then pressed further.
"Where are the vagrants I asked you to prepare?"
Jude Ford spoke coldly, "In the room right behind you."
Cassia immediately opened the window to look inside, where filthy, foul-smelling vagrants filled the room, clearly drugged with aphrodisiacs, each one restless and agitated.
Seeing this, Cassia Everett sinisterly curled her lips, immensely satisfied.
She even brought in a crowd of journalists, so once that bitch Serena was defiled by these filthy vagrants, they’d capture it all.
Such explosive news was bound to make headlines, and then all of Imperia would know of Serena Everett’s indiscretions, she’d become the greatest shame of the Everett Family!
Just thinking about this made Cassia Everett incredibly excited; merely killing Serena wouldn’t quell her hatred, she needed to see her humiliated, utterly disgraced, and become the disgrace of the Everett Family to quench her hatred!
Jude Ford, seeing her , read her thoughts completely, looked at her with even more disgust.
Cassia Everett was still lost in her fantasies, her mouth curved high, her face full of smugness.
"She’s been brought to you!"
Upon hearing this, Cassia immediately became excited, her eyes shimmering with venom, "Quick, bring her over!"
Soon, Serena appeared before her, standing with a lazy and careless stance, showing no sign of fear, as if she were casually here to watch the show.
Cassia Everett frowned in confusion, why hadn’t they tied up that bitch Serena?
But soon, she comforted herself internally, with The Netherworld Syndicate’s capability, they didn’t need to tie her up to capture her, that must be why they didn’t tie her up!
"Serena, you’re finally in my hands, hahaha!"
Cassia Everett looked at her with venomous eyes, her face twisted and demented.
"Let me tell you, inside are some filthy, disgusting vagrants, you’ll see how good it feels soon!"
Serena’s delicately porcelain face remained expressionless, her voice calm as she replied.
Her indifferent attitude enraged Cassia Everett, did she not realize she was facing death!
Serena, that bitch, shouldn’t she be kneeling and begging for mercy, admitting her wrongs, pleading to be spared?
How could she remain so calm?
"Serena, soon you’ll know how it feels to be trampled, let’s see if you can still act cocky then?" Cassia Everett laughed cruelly, turning to Jude Ford, "Hurry up and throw her in, the journalists I called are arriving!" ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novel{f}ire.net
"Got it." Jude Ford nodded immediately.
Cassia Everett became even more arrogant, laughing heartily, "Serena, this is the price for crossing me! So what if you stole everyone’s affection? Today you’ll be utterly disgraced, becoming the shame of the Everett Family!"
