Chapter 192: Chapter 192

The little girl had never called him so intimately!

Why could Lucas Laine be called so intimately by his little girl?!

"Don’t be jealous, he and I are just friends." Serena Everett’s fair arms wrapped around the man’s neck, soothingly kissed the corner of his lips, "Let’s go, it’s time to accompany Grandma."

Inside the living room.

"Come in, come in, sit down, quickly sit down!" Old Mrs. Quinn warmly invited Jocelyn Sterling and Ivan Everett in, and instructed the housekeeper to prepare the best tea.

Jocelyn quickly spoke, "No need, Mrs. Quinn, we came today to discuss something with you. Once we finish talking, we’ll leave."

"Yes, yes, no need to trouble yourself, Old Mrs. Quinn!" Ivan Everett chimed in agreeing.

Upon hearing this, Old Mrs. Quinn waved her hand jovially, "We are all family. Feel free to speak if you have anything to say!"

Due to her fondness for Serena, Old Mrs. Quinn also cared deeply about all members of the Everett Family.

Ivan Everett and Jocelyn Sterling exchanged a glance and then spoke, "It’s , Old Mrs. Quinn, Jocelyn and I have been thinking about it for a long time. We still feel the marriage between our two families was decided too hastily. Today, we’ve come to discuss withdrawing from the engagement...!"

The word "withdraw" was barely out when Old Mrs. Quinn immediately started to wail.

"Oh dear, oh dear, the doctor said I can’t handle any stress, otherwise I’ll fall ill again. Why do I feel my heart is in a twist again?!"

Old Mrs. Quinn clutched her chest and moaned for a while, then shook her head and looked at them.

"Right, what did you say you wanted to do just now?"

Ivan Everett, Jocelyn Sterling: "..."

Old Mrs. Quinn said this, leaving them both at a loss on how to broach the topic of withdrawing from the engagement!

Feeling quite helpless, but recalling the rumors and the evidence they had found, Jocelyn and Ivan spoke again.

"Mrs. Quinn, please don’t be agitated. We’ve thought about it for a long time and feel the marriage between our families isn’t appropriate. Serena and Damian have too big an age gap, so we want to discuss the withdrawal from the engagement with you!"

Hearing Jocelyn and Ivan’s determined tone, Old Mrs. Quinn realized they were serious, and instantly grew nervous.

This couldn’t happen. She had decided Serena would be her granddaughter-in-law, this marriage mustn’t be canceled!

"Oh dear, sisters, this marriage was agreed upon by you and me back then. Now your son and daughter-in-law want to break off the engagement. What should we do about this!"

Jocelyn Sterling and Ivan Everett found themselves with no solution faced with Old Mrs. Quinn’s laments and could only try to reason with her.

"Old Mrs. Quinn, this engagement really isn’t suitable; the children have too big of an age gap..."

"I don’t care! If you don’t like Damian’s age, then just bring Elliot for the engagement. After all, you originally intended for Elliot and Damian to be engaged!"

Just that when Elliot Everett was born a boy, they had to drop the matter.

Old Mrs. Quinn decidedly played the role of a rascal, knowing Elliot Everett couldn’t possibly be engaged with Damian Quinn. So as long as she muddled through, they’d be unable to cancel the engagement.

But Damian Quinn at the doorway turned dark, pressing his finger against his brow forcefully.

What nonsense was Grandma saying? Just the sight of Elliot Everett annoyed him. If it weren’t for him, his relationship with the little girl wouldn’t have been so uncertain!

Serena couldn’t resist curling her red lips into a faint smile.

Seeing Old Mrs. Quinn’s antics leaving Jocelyn and Ivan helpless, Serena appeared as a savior.

"Serena, why are you here! But you came just in time, tell your Grandma Quinn that you want to call off this engagement!"

Old Mrs. Quinn swiftly interrupted their words, speaking unreasonably.

"This engagement can’t be canceled, either you let Elliot fulfill the contract or Serena fulfills the contract!"

Jocelyn Sterling and Ivan Everett, looking troubled, spoke, "Old Mrs. Quinn, how can Elliot fulfill an engagement when he’s a man?"

Old Mrs. Quinn threw back her head, continuing to muddle, "I won’t hear it, I won’t hear it. It’s nonsense when you only have these two choices, withdrawing from the engagement is absolutely impossible!"

Jocelyn Sterling and Ivan Everett found themselves thoroughly powerless against Old Mrs. Quinn’s antics, and could only leave with Serena.

Damian Quinn’s eyes were deep and dark, reluctantly letting go of her hand, watching them leave.

"Damian, they came to withdraw the engagement this time, and I gave up face for you to fend them off!" Old Mrs. Quinn said helplessly, "You need to quickly think of a way to make Serena Everett’s family accept you. Otherwise, when they come again to withdraw the engagement, I won’t be able to help!"

Damian Quinn’s eyes deepened, then nodded in agreement, "Understood, Grandma."

"Serena, from now on, don’t associate with Damian Quinn. Dad and Mom will definitely find a way to cancel the marriage between the families!" Jocelyn spoke softly, holding her hand.

Serena furrowed her brows: "Mom, he’s actually a good person..."

"Listen, Serena!" Jocelyn gently interrupted her, her tone very firm.

The marriage between the Everett Family and Quinn Family must be canceled!

Aside from the age gap, they also found evidence proving that the girl Damian Quinn once held was Crystal Joyce. His entanglement with her, how dare he think of marrying their precious daughter?

Ivan Everett always took his wife’s word as law. Believing the rumors outside, he certainly wasn’t willing to let their cherished daughter marry a playboy!

No matter how influential Damian Quinn was, he would never agree to hand Serena over to him!

Serena was about to say something more, but they had already arrived at the Everett Family residence.

Niall Everett and Ian Everett quickly went up to her, embracing her with concern.

"Serena, you’ve been wronged! We’ll never let you be wronged again in the future!"

Absolutely, Serena, with us here, we won’t let something happen again!"

Elliot Everett purposefully kept the matter from Jocelyn and Ivan Everett, preventing them from getting angry and hurting their health. Hence, Jocelyn and Ivan merely thought their sibling relationship was good and didn’t think more of it.

Seeing Serena’s online reputation quickly improving, Silas’s face instantly turned gloomy.

This exposure not only failed to ruin that woman Serena’s reputation but instead made her famous!

Silas angrily punched the wall heavily, Rosalind Ford that fool, couldn’t even manage this small matter!

His eyes gradually darkened; he absolutely couldn’t let that woman Serena stay by Master Damian’s side, and she couldn’t be allowed to steal everything that originally belonged to Miss Crystal!

It seemed he had to think of other ways...
