Chapter 314: Chapter 314
But if Serena Everett knew his thoughts, she would definitely tell him honestly that learning these skills wasn’t hard at all; she learned them casually.
"Third Brother, I promised to have dinner with Grandma Quinn tonight; I have to go now."
On Old Mrs. Quinn’s birthday, she was at the military and couldn’t spend the birthday with her. Now that she’s back in Imperia, she has to make time to accompany Old Mrs. Quinn.
Listening to his dear little sister going to the Quinn Family, Bianca Everett was a bit reluctant, but still nodded in agreement, "Alright, Serena, Third Brother will take you there now!"
"No need." Serena shook her head and refused, "Third Brother, you just returned to Imperia and aren’t familiar with the research institute; today is the day to network."
Seeing his dear little sister’s firm attitude, Bianca Everett could only compromise, "Alright, Serena, if you won’t let Third Brother take you, then Third Brother will come pick you up tonight; don’t refuse again!"
Serena reluctantly nodded in agreement, and with long, straight strides, she walked out of the hall. She had just gotten into the car when she received a call from Jude Ford.
"Boss, you always asked me to keep an eye on The Midnight Syndicate’s movements. I’ve been paying extra attention, and now it’s been some time since we blew up their important dock, but The Midnight Syndicate has yet to make any move!"
On the other end of the phone, Jude Ford’s eyes were full of confusion, obviously puzzled by this matter.
Ystoria is Midnight Syndicate’s territory, and they crossed over to attack the DY Organization. Logically speaking, Midnight Syndicate absolutely wouldn’t let this go easily, but to this day, they still haven’t made any moves.
It’s simply too strange!
Serena’s exquisite porcelain-white face also showed a hint of confusion. Since when did Midnight Syndicate become so easy-going? To not care about this matter... ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novelfire.net
"Boss, what should we do now?" Jude Ford’s tone on the other end was somewhat anxious, "Is Midnight Syndicate waiting to make a big move? That’s why there’s been no action..."
"What are you afraid of?"
Serena’s delicate eyebrows lowered, exuding a sense of arrogance and disdain, her tone leisurely and defiant.
"If they want to fight, I’ll accompany them to the end!"
DY Organization has repeatedly targeted her; she’s not a generous person, and this grudge must be avenged!
"Okay, Boss, I understand!"
Listening to Serena’s fearless words, Jude Ford instantly felt reassured, unable to help but silently sigh in his heart.
Their boss is just too formidable!!!
"Oh, by the time, Serena dear will be here soon. Hurry up and arrange everything the way Serena likes it! Also, remove the other flowers; only keep the ones Serena likes!"
Old Mrs. Quinn energetically directed the household staff, obviously thrilled to learn that Serena was coming.
"Oh yes, Butler, go to the kitchen and oversee. Serena likes spicy food; make sure the kitchen staff put their heart into cooking!"
The butler instantly responded respectfully, "Yes, ma’am!"
Watching this scene, Mrs. Langley couldn’t help but quietly whisper to Crystal Joyce, "Miss Crystal, previously the old lady only cared for you . But now that Serena has appeared, she has stolen all of the old lady’s attention. Shows how manipulative she is!"
"Don’t say it like that, Mrs. Langley." Crystal Joyce still maintained her innocent and harmless demeanor, speaking softly, "Serena is Grandma’s future granddaughter-in-law; naturally, Grandma would pay more attention to Serena."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Langley became more enthusiastic, "Miss Crystal, you’re just too naive! If you ask me, you and Master Damian are the perfect match! Back then, Master Damian always complied with your requests without exception, which shows his feelings for you!"
Listening to this, not only did Crystal Joyce’s face not hold a smile, but her gaze turned a bit darker.
She knew better than anyone that back then, Damian Quinn agreed to all her requests unconditionally just to repay her kindness.
But Mrs. Langley didn’t notice Crystal Joyce’s change in mood and continued, "Miss Crystal, you shouldn’t have left Imperia back then, otherwise you would be the one with Master Damian now. Everyone knew how good Master Damian was to you at the time; that Serena can’t compare to Miss Crystal you at all!"
"Don’t say it, Mrs. Langley." Crystal Joyce bowed her head, looking gloomy, "Damian already has Serena by his side. What’s the use of talking about the past?"
Seeing Crystal Joyce’s expression, Mrs. Langley was instantly delighted, quickly offering her loyalty, "Miss Crystal, don’t worry, I’ll help you! Serena hasn’t married into the Quinn Family yet, as long as you don’t give up, there’s still a chance!"
As long as Crystal Joyce became the future mistress of the Quinn Family, her status there would rise significantly! Her life would be fabulous! Just thinking about it made Mrs. Langley excited.
Crystal Joyce glanced lightly at her, instantly guessing her intentions accurately, and she subtly tugged at the corner of her lips. In the next moment, she broke the necklace around her neck, letting it fall to the ground.
Her actions were swift, making it seem as though the necklace fell on its own.
Following behind her, Mrs. Langley immediately picked up Crystal Joyce’s "accidentally" dropped necklace, about to remind her, but then her eyes flickered, and a scheme quickly took shape in her mind.
Mrs. Langley’s eyes flashed, discreetly putting the necklace in her pocket, pretending nothing happened as she followed along.
A sleek heavy motorcycle made a beautiful drift, steadily parking at the old residence entrance. Serena stylishly got off, looking both beautiful and cool, drawing all eyes toward her.
The security at the door finally snapped out of his daze from Serena’s beauty, seeing her about to enter, he hurriedly stopped her.
Serena stopped in her tracks, lazily lifting her extremely beautiful fox-like eyes to look at him, "Something wrong?"
For some reason, facing Serena’s gaze, the security guard felt sweat on his back and his legs trembled, taking quite a while to suppress his fear and find his voice.
"You can’t just go in, lately the old lady hasn’t been well. To prevent anyone from bringing bacteria or viruses inside to infect the old lady, you have to disinfect before entering the old residence!"
Mrs. Langley already told them how the Sixth Miss Everett bullied Miss Crystal!
Miss Crystal always treated them, the lowest-ranked staff, with a soft voice and utmost respect; in their hearts, Miss Crystal is the kindest angel!
Now that Miss Crystal has been bullied, they naturally want to find a way to stick up for Miss Crystal!
