Chapter 224: Chapter 224

Jude Ford couldn’t help but tremble, instinctively withdrawing the hand that was holding Serena’s arm. But as soon as he realized it, he felt the move was too cowardly and disgraceful, and unwillingly spoke up.

"What’s wrong with me linking arms with my boss since we’re on good terms?"

Though Jude said this, his body was very honest as he dared not touch Serena again.

Damian Quinn couldn’t be bothered to deal with him, not even sparing him a glance. Instead, he naturally reached out to hold Serena’s hand, his voice deep and magnetic, remarkably gentle.

"Big brother will take you home."

Ignoring Jude Ford made him furious, and he glared viciously at Damian Quinn, while Serena protectively frowned, displeased, and spoke.

"Don’t glare at him."

Jude Ford felt his heart shatter completely with a "snap," "Boss... you’ve become so biased now!!!"

Boss is overly protective of Damian Quinn!

"No, you’re overthinking it."

Serena blinked her eyes, speaking boldly, "I’m the most impartial person! Don’t say such things."

His native language is speechless!

Damian’s attractive, sensuous lips curved up as a low laugh escaped his throat, sending tingles down one’s spine.

"That’s right, my little fiancée is the most impartial."

Upon hearing this, Serena promptly raised her chin at Jude Ford, looking as if to say, "You heard that, didn’t you?"

Jude Ford felt even more speechless, pouting and sneaking a glare at Damian Quinn.

He’s flaunting now! When the Vice Alliance Hierarch finds out he took the boss away, his good days will be over!

Serena’s phone suddenly vibrated violently in her pocket, showing that it was a call from Jocelyn Sterling. She moved to a quiet place to answer the call.

Once Serena walked away, Jude Ford boldly glared at Damian Quinn again, letting out a heavy cold snort, "Just because the boss likes you now doesn’t mean anything. She just likes your face. When our Vice Alliance Hierarch returns, the boss won’t bother with you anymore!"

Damian Quinn’s long, deep, fox-like eyes suddenly narrowed threateningly, exuding a terrifying sense of malevolence, sending shivers down one’s spine.

"Say that again and see what happens."

Jude Ford felt the temperature in the air plummet, as if he was plunged into a freezing cellar.

His legs gave way, and he didn’t have the courage to provoke anymore, quickly making a getaway!

Damian Quinn pressed his fingertips tightly, the malevolence in his eyes still lingering, looking immensely sinister and frightening.

Judging by his words, the little girl seems to have a close relationship with Lucas Laine from The Netherworld Syndicate...

"Serena, when are you coming back? Your second brother has returned and is eager to see you!"

Listening to Jocelyn Sterling’s gentle voice on the other end, Serena’s expression softened as she responded.

"Mom, I’ll be back soon."

"Alright, alright!" Jocelyn Sterling’s voice on the other end sounded very happy, "Serena, Mom’s waiting for you at home!"

Damian Quinn had unknowingly moved to her side, the malevolence he carried now concealed. His tone to Jocelyn was humble and polite.

"The son-in-law is here too!"

Jocelyn Sterling’s face beamed with a bright smile, "I really like the flower plants you just sent over. You, dear child, are so considerate. I’ve been searching for these for a long while, but couldn’t find them. Thank you!"

"Why be polite with me, Aunt?"

Damian Quinn’s lips curled slightly, his tone remained humble and polite, the epitome of the kind of younger generation the elders favor.

"As long as you like them."

Jocelyn Sterling was even more delighted, laughing as she spoke, "Serena, since you’re with Damian now, why don’t you bring him along for dinner at home?"

Serena obediently agreed, and after hanging up the call, couldn’t help but look at the man inquisitively with her stunning fox-like eyes.

"When did you get Mom to like you so much?"

Previously, Mom clearly didn’t like him, but now she’s even calling him son-in-law.

Damian Quinn’s long, elegant fingers landed on the girl’s face, gently caressing it, his deep, magnetic voice laced with a lazy humor.

"I just cleared up some misunderstandings Aunt had about me."

Jocelyn Sterling had just hung up the phone when Steven Everett rushed over, sounding very anxious.

"Mom, when is Serena coming back?"

He couldn’t wait to see his sister!!!

"Why are you in such a hurry!"

Seeing her second son’s urgency, Jocelyn Sterling felt both amused and helpless.

"Serena said she’ll be back soon. Don’t be anxious, you will see Serena in just a moment!"

Knowing he could see the much-anticipated sister soon, Steven Everett’s lips couldn’t help but tug upwards.

To make a good impression on his sister, he specifically changed his clothes and styled his hair, worried that the wounds on his face would scare her, he carefully covered them with bandages.

"Geez, second brother, you used to say that only sissy men put bandages on their faces."

"Yeah, yeah, second brother, didn’t you hate putting bandages on your face the most?"

Listening to Ian Everett and Niall Everett’s teasing, Steven Everett looked at them disdainfully, "What do you know? I’m just worried that the wounds on my face would scare Serena!" Official source ıs novelꜰire.net

They all say the sister is so cute and well-behaved, Serena is such a sweet and gentle girl, what if she gets scared seeing him all covered with wounds?!

"Second brother, you can’t go a sentence without mentioning Serena!"

Thinking he could soon meet his sister, Steven Everett’s stern expression softened a bit, "I’m warning you two, once Serena comes back, you two better stay far away, don’t compete with me for Serena!

You’ve both been with Serena for so long, it’s time to leave some time for me!"

"No way!" Ian Everett and Niall Everett immediately protested, "Second brother, Serena isn’t just your sister, why can’t we be close?"

A big brother fighting for Serena was already annoying enough, and now there’s the second brother, they’ll have no chance to be with Serena in the future!

"Not convinced?" Steven Everett smirked, raising an eyebrow, "Then let’s have a few rounds at the boxing arena, if you win, I’ll listen to you."

Niall Everett and Ian Everett instantly quieted down, not daring to make a sound, neither of them wanted to get beat up.

Big brother had the biological upper hand, while second brother had the forceful upper hand.

Seeing their reactions, Steven Everett chuckled lightly in triumph, but then immediately received a call from a team member.

"Captain, we just got news that the Lord of the Underworld—Lord Moros has appeared at The Pit!"

"Alright, I’ve got it." Steven Everett’s expression instantly turned very serious, "I’ll get there as quickly as possible."
