Chapter 142: Chapter 142
The matter quickly reached the Everett Family. After all, she had been raised there for so many years. Upon hearing about Cassia Everett’s tragic end, Jocelyn Sterling couldn’t help but sigh.
"How could this happen? Why did she..."
"Alright, honey, don’t think too much about it. Your body is still weak and needs good rest." Ivan Everett comforted her, "Her mind is not right anymore; she’s completely insane. I will have someone send her to a mental hospital!" Thıs text ıs hosted at novelꞁire.net
From now on, their family would have no more ties to her!
"Okay, do as you say." Jocelyn Sterling nodded and stopped thinking about it. Perhaps this was Cassia Everett’s way of being punished!
"Honey, you should rest now, let me lull you to sleep..."
Before Ivan Everett could finish talking, Jocelyn Sterling pushed him away disdainfully, "I want Serena to accompany me to sleep, you go sleep in the guest room!"
Now that they had a precious daughter, he was being abandoned, wasn’t he?!
"Serena!" Jocelyn Sterling’s face was pale, and she reached out and held her hand, looking at her expectantly, "Could you stay with mom?"
Facing her mother’s expectant gaze, Serena Everett couldn’t find the words to refuse and nodded in agreement, "Alright."
Jocelyn Sterling was beyond happy and held Serena’s hand, unwilling to let go.
She had always wanted to get closer to Serena, but Cassia Everett had stuck to her tightly before, leaving her no chance. Plus, she was worried that being too close to Serena might make her feel biased, so she had always held back.
But now, she could get close to her precious daughter without constraints!
Standing beside Serena and Ivan Everett, they seemed particularly redundant now.
Watching this scene, Niall Everett and Ian Everett laughed unkindly at their father.
"Hahaha, Dad, Mom’s ditched you!"
"Exactly, exactly, Mom’s totally over you now, hahahaha..."
Ivan Everett glared at the two rascals without much anger and then turned back to Jocelyn Sterling and Serena with a gentle smile.
"Honey, Serena, you two should rest early, we won’t disturb you anymore."
Hearing those words, Ivan Everett felt extraordinarily comforted; daughters were truly lovely, so obedient and considerate!
Unlike those rascals; just looking at them was annoying!
"Goodnight, my precious daughter!"
Ivan Everett laughed happily after speaking to Serena, then turned with a disdainful tone to Niall Everett and Ian Everett.
"What are you all still standing here for? Hurry and leave, don’t disturb my wife and precious daughter as they rest!"
Elliot Everett reached out and patted Serena’s head, his tone extremely gentle, "Goodnight, Serena."
Niall Everett and Ian Everett immediately crowded in, clearly eager to touch Serena’s head too, but just as they reached out, Elliot Everett’s icy gaze stopped them.
"Out, Serena needs to rest."
The older brother was really irritating; why was he the only one allowed to touch his beloved sister’s head?!
Niall Everett and Ian Everett dared not complain, withdrawing their hands and turning dispiritedly to leave.
Jocelyn Sterling watched the scene, unable to help but smile wryly, "Serena, the five of them have different personalities, but the one thing they all share is a domineering streak since childhood. If you ever bring a boyfriend home, those five are sure to cause a racket!"
Upon hearing this, Serena lightly clicked her tongue against her molars.
She suddenly had a bit of concern for a certain charming future suitor’s predicament...
"Big brother, are we really not telling Mom and Dad about Grandpa fainting at the hospital?"
"Yes." Elliot Everett nodded with indifference.
If they found out, given their filial piety, they would surely soften their hearts toward him.
"This time let the old man truly suffer."
"Understood, big brother, our lips are sealed; we absolutely won’t let Mom and Dad know."
"Exactly, Grandpa used to bully our family, and even bully Serena; this time we have to give him a harsh lesson!" Ian Everett and Niall Everett said in unison.
Elliot Everett gently adjusted the gold-rimmed glasses on his nose with his elegant fingers, faintly curling his lips, with the lamplight casting a cultured, noble air over him.
Dare anyone let his sister suffer, no matter who it was, he wouldn’t let it go.
"Who would’ve thought, who would’ve thought indeed, that Cassia Everett would do such shameless things!"
"Yeah, it’s unbelievable; we used to idolize her as a school beauty, a goddess, now just thinking of it makes me feel sick!"
"That’s right, fortunately, Imperia University has expelled her now!"
Cassia Everett’s poisoning of Jocelyn Sterling, along with her dirty dealings over the years, had been exposed online, sparking countless disdain and criticism, completely ruining her reputation and leaving her infamous forever. Even if she regained her sanity later, she would be like a street rat that everyone wanted to hit.
Serena wasn’t interested in listening to the gossip and lazily returned to her seat.
"Serena, you’re here!"
As soon as they saw Serena, the classmates quickly stopped discussing and gathered around eagerly.
"Serena, this is the breakfast Aidan Keaton brought for you. When he came to deliver breakfast, you hadn’t arrived yet, so we accepted it on your behalf!"
Eyeing the breakfast in front of her, Serena frowned, "Don’t accept it next time."
"Got it, Serena, we promise it won’t happen again!"
Seeing Serena frown, they all quickly nodded obediently, then couldn’t help but ask nosily.
"But Serena, since Aidan Keaton is Clearwater University’s campus heartthrob, and equally as genius in medicine as you, don’t you have any thoughts?"
Serena responded coolly, "It’s impossible between us."
Her decisive tone left the classmates disappointed and sighing.
"Ah... The couple I ship is unreal... I’m so upset!"
"Me too, me too, this is more painful than anything else!"
Serena lazily raised her finely arched eyebrows, "Stop randomly shipping couples from now on."
Otherwise, a certain petty old man might get jealous again for no good reason.
The first and second classes today were with Professor Langley. As she listened to Professor Langley’s passionate lecture, Serena began to feel sleepy again.
"Serena Everett, do you have any issues with me?"
Seeing Serena about to nod off again, Professor Langley on stage couldn’t hold back, he banged the table forcefully.
"Serena Everett, if you have any issues with me, you can say it out loud, so I can improve..."
Saying the most humble words in the loudest voice.
Listening to Professor Langley’s words, Serena was confused but spoke honestly, "I don’t have any issues with you."
Professor Langley’s gaze turned even more despondent, "Then why do you sleep in my class every time? Serena Everett, I’ve observed carefully, you never sleep in other teachers’ classes, but in mine you do! You must dislike me; you must have issues with me!"
