Chapter 227: Chapter 227

Ivan Everett coughed lightly, somewhat embarrassed, "Honey, how can we be the same as them..."

"What’s the difference?" Jocelyn glanced at him and then turned to smile at Serena and the others, "Look at how sweet they are together!"

Hearing this, Ivan felt an urge to act.

But who knew, as soon as he reached out, Jocelyn pushed him away.

"What are you doing? Hugging and cuddling at our age, what does that look like!"

Ivan felt wronged, "Honey, didn’t you just say that’s very sweet?"

Jocelyn gave him an amused look, "I meant that it’s sweet for the daughter and son-in-law!"

Jocelyn continued to jab, "You should see how old you are, still doing all this hugging and cuddling!"

Ivan quietly held a grudge in his heart, that rascal Damian Quinn, not only did he steal his precious daughter, but he also got him disliked by his wife!

Humph, he would definitely not easily agree to let Serena marry him!

Steven Everett returned, dusty and worn, while Elliot Everett was still dealing with company matters.

"Big brother," Steven respectfully greeted.

"Hmm, you’re back," Elliot nodded slightly, "How did the mission go?"

"Damn it! Don’t even mention it!"

Talking about it, Steven’s expression turned sour as he gritted his teeth.

"By the time we got there, the person was already gone, nothing found."

That "Lord Moros" has some skills; even though we got confirmed intel that he appeared in The Pit, when we rushed there, we couldn’t find a trace of him!

The Lord of the Underworld is indeed not easy to capture!

Seeing his demeanor, Elliot softened his tone a bit, "Alright, head back to your room and rest, you’ve had a long day, and Serena’s already asleep, you’ll see her tomorrow."

"Okay." ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ novel✦fire.net

Steven nodded, not wanting his sister to see him in his current unkempt state!

Tomorrow, he’ll definitely spruce up and leave the best impression on his sister...

But before Steven could enjoy his thoughts, he ran into Serena on the stairs, wearing pajamas.

Seeing the girl before him, Steven immediately recognized her as the girl who saved his life on the road!

He was equally surprised.

How could this girl be in their house, and in pajamas no less, was she a relative visiting?

"Serena, why did you come out dressed so scantily?"

Elliot walked over quickly, took off his jacket, and draped it over her shoulders with tenderness and concern.

"It’s chilly at night, Serena; you’ll catch a cold dressed like that."

Seeing the undisguised care on Elliot’s face, Serena felt warm inside, "Big brother, I just came down for a drink of water, I won’t catch a cold in such a short time!"

"Even so!" Elliot lovingly tousled her hair, "Don’t do that again next time!"

Steven was completely petrified; his savior turned out to be the sister he’s been yearning to see!

Didn’t Niall and the others say Serena was the sweetest? But she was on a heavy motorcycle chasing down a black car driven by drug dealers, pulled a perfect drift, and stopped the runaway car, saving his life.

That was super cool and not at all the sweet image they’d mentioned?!

But Niall and the others were right about one thing; his sister is very beautiful!

No doubt about it, she’s his sister!!!

"By the way, Serena, this is your second brother."

Elliot seemed to suddenly remember Steven, and started introducing her.

"He just got back; you haven’t seen him before; hope you weren’t startled?"

He treats her like a fragile doll, but she’s not that fragile.

Serena shook her head, "No."

When she first saw Steven, she had already guessed his identity.

This newly-acquainted second brother of hers is quite handsome, with a heroic and masculine vibe, and she found him somewhat familiar...

But, he is a bit dark!

Seeing his precious sister sizing him up, Steven’s stern and handsome face broke into a smile, eager to leave a good impression on Serena.

"Serena, do you remember me?"

"Hmm?" Serena blinked in confusion, clearly having no impression of him.

"Serena, we met on the path today, you even saved me..."

At that time, Steven was dressed in tattered clothes, looking like a beggar. After returning home and dressing up properly, it was normal for Serena not to recognize him.

Serena’s delicate eyebrows raised lazily, not expecting the person she saved on a whim to be her second brother! Fate is truly wonderful.

"I remember now, second brother, you look quite different from before."

Hearing this, Steven’s ears turned a little red, then a hint of frustration flashed in his eyes.

He had specially dressed up to leave the best impression on his sister, but he didn’t expect Serena had already seen him at his most disheveled state!

"Serena, did you get hurt when you jumped off the car?" Steven suddenly recalled her dangerous leap earlier and worriedly asked.

Serena honestly shook her head; jumping off won’t hurt her.

"That’s good!" Steven finally breathed a sigh of relief, then sternly warned her, "Serena, never do anything that dangerous again!"

If his sister got hurt, he’d feel immensely guilty!

"What jumping off cars and getting hurt?"

Serena didn’t want Elliot to worry about this, so she casually made up an excuse.

Noticing the injuries on Steven’s face, Serena frowned, "Second brother, didn’t I give you medicine before? Didn’t you use it?"

Steven quickly shook his head, "I didn’t not use it..."

After finding the medicine effective, he shared the bottle with his teammates. He wasn’t a selfish person, and his teammates were as injured as he was.

As a captain, he couldn’t only think of himself!

Serena saw through his thoughts and didn’t press further, just taking out another small porcelain bottle from her pocket for him.

"Serena..." Steven felt immensely touched, but still remembered the matter at hand, "Serena, your medicine is very effective, we’re hoping to make a business deal with you, what do you think?"

"Sure." Serena agreed directly without refusing, "I’ll have more sent to you tomorrow."

Steven’s smile was bright, "Serena, thank you so much!"

Niall and the others were right; Serena is indeed the sweetest and most adorable girl in the world!

If those rough guys knew he had such a sweet and adorable sister, wouldn’t they be green with envy?
