Chapter 242: Chapter 242

Listening to Jude Ford’s confused murmurs, Serena Everett also squinted her extremely beautiful fox-like eyes. This matter is indeed strange; The Midnight Syndicate can’t possibly be this idle...

Before Serena could continue thinking, her phone in her pocket suddenly vibrated fiercely, distracting her.

Jude Ford inadvertently caught a glimpse of the incoming caller display and felt as uncomfortable as having a mouth full of flies.

"Ahhh, boss, you actually saved Damian Quinn as fiancé!!!"

Serena’s tone was quite nonchalant, "He changed it himself."

"Oh oh, so he changed it. I know you wouldn’t save Damian Quinn as fiancé yourself, boss..."

Jude let out a sigh of relief but then suddenly realized, "Wait, that’s not right! Boss, you actually let him touch your phone!!!"

Serena didn’t respond to him anymore, striding her straight legs to the corridor to answer the call.

"Baby, I’ve arrived."

The man’s naturally pleasant voice came from the other side of the phone, sounding even more magnetic, making one’s ears tingle.

"Mm, I’ll be right out."

Serena responded, turned back to the classroom, grabbed her backpack, and was about to leave, but was stopped by Jude Ford.

"Boss, now all you think about is Damian Quinn. One call from him and you’re leaving. Boss, think carefully. It has been ages since we last met!"

Thinking about their boss being taken away by Damian Quinn, Jude couldn’t help but speak sourly.

"Boss, apart from having a good-looking face, what’s so great about Damian Quinn? He’s old and looks fierce. He can’t compare to the Vice Alliance Hierarch at all!"

Serena silently watched Jude, who looked indignant, her shimmering fox-like eyes flashing with mischief.

"I haven’t hung up the call yet."

So Damian Quinn heard everything he just said?

Thinking of this possibility, Jude felt a chill down his spine, and his legs went weak, almost kneeling.

On the other side of the phone, Damian Quinn’s handsome wicked face was icy cold, exuding a terrifying menace.

Though the girl explained that she and Lucas were merely friends, he still felt a sense of crisis.

"You can express your opinions to me directly."

Hearing this, Jude’s body shook even more fiercely. With hundreds of guts, he wouldn’t dare! He only dared to gossip behind the scenes!

But who knew, even gossiping behind the scenes was overheard by the person involved. He was really unlucky, like disaster striking repeatedly!

"Ahem, boss, suddenly I remembered I have something urgent, I better leave first..."

After leaving these words, Jude bolted out of the classroom as if his pants were on fire.

If he didn’t hurry and run, if Damian Quinn caught him, he would be done for!

Serena helplessly curled her red lips, not delaying any further, stepping out with her straight fair legs.

As soon as she stepped out of the school gate, she saw the black Maybach and the cold yet noble man standing there.

Seeing her, Damian Quinn’s menacing aura completely withdrew, with a gentle look at the corners of his eyes and brows, he naturally raised his hand wanting to embrace the girl.

Yet before he could touch Serena, Steven Everett suddenly dashed out, having seized the opportunity to hug her first, "Serena, Second Brother is here to take you home!"

Steven Everett ignored Damian Quinn’s increasingly dark face, reaching out to pat Serena’s head softly, "Tonight, Big Brother has a banquet to attend, so he asked me to take you home! Let’s go back!"

Watching Steven Everett trying to take the girl away, Damian Quinn’s long and deep peach blossom eyes instantly narrowed as he called out immediately.

Thinking of losing to him before, Steven Everett, though unwilling, could only agree, "Oh, Brother-In-Law, you’re here, I hadn’t seen you earlier!"

Could this statement be any more fake?!

There was no way Steven Everett hadn’t seen that towering figure of Master Damian standing here!

Standing to one side, Chase Sherman silently mumbled to himself, almost bursting into laughter.

Damian Quinn reached out and pulled the girl to his side, interlocking their fingers, declaring his sovereignty.

"Second Brother, I’ll take Serena back, you can go attend to other matters."

Watching Steven Everett’s unwilling face, Damian Quinn also slowly added.

"Second Brother, don’t forget what you said before."

Since he won the contest, he wouldn’t interfere between him and Serena!

Steven Everett bitterly clenched his back teeth, wishing he could crush them. Why did he lose that day!

Seeing the sudden visit from Nancy Sutton, the assistant immediately greeted respectfully.

"Is Elliot busy now? I need to meet him..."

Nancy Sutton nervously bit her lip. She knew he was attending a business banquet today, needing a female companion, so she came today hoping to be his date.

Since the time she was drunk and he sent her home, she’s found that Elliot Everett is becoming increasingly distant from her.

She didn’t know what she did drunk, but after much consideration, she decided to confess her feelings to him today. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by NoveI[F]ire.net

Assistant: "He has time, Miss Sutton! President Everett just finished his meeting, now he’s in the office!"

Hearing this, Nancy Sutton’s eyes immediately lit up, "Then I’ll go to him!"

Thinking of the usual special treatment from President Everett towards Nancy Sutton, the assistant readily cleared the way for her.

Nancy Sutton tightly squeezed the hands hanging by her side, trying to suppress her nerves, but upon reaching the office door, she saw a woman inside Elliot Everett’s office.

Moreover, Elliot Everett’s hand was resting on her shoulder, from a distance, the two appeared rather close...

Nancy Sutton’s body instantly froze. The courage she had worked hard to muster dissipated completely, while sharp pain stabbed through her heart, afraid of causing a scene she dared not stay, and turned away holding back her sadness.

Inside the office, Elliot Everett’s face was extremely cold, his tone carrying a thick warning.

"Stop these little tricks with me."

Being blatantly exposed by Elliot Everett, the woman could hardly maintain her dignity, lowering her head in embarrassment.

Earlier she had pretended to fall, hoping to land in his arms, but didn’t expect Elliot Everett to react so quickly, dodging her, only reaching out to support her.
