Chapter 374: Chapter 374

Twenty minutes later, a black Maybach steadily parked at the hospital entrance.

The director and others had been waiting at the hospital entrance, and as soon as they saw the car, they quickly went to greet it, sending the man to the emergency room as fast as possible.

Chase Sherman and Seth Sterling were anxiously waiting outside the operating room. Seeing the director come out, they hurriedly asked.

"How is Master Damian?"

"Young Master Sterling, don’t get worked up." The director quickly responded, "Master Damian had a stomach bleed caused by excessive drinking. Fortunately, he was brought to the hospital in time, so it’s not a big problem now. He just needs to rest properly and should avoid drinking recently!"

"Stomach bleed?" Seth Sterling clicked his tongue lightly, "I told you drinking like that wouldn’t work! He’s drunk himself into a stomach bleed!"

Chase Sherman also sighed, "Young Master Sterling, what should we do now?"

"First, keep it quiet. Otherwise, if Grandma Quinn finds out, she’ll be anxious and have a heart attack!" Seth Sterling irritably scratched his head, "A perfectly good night, ideal for picking up girls, and now I’m caught up in all this mess!"

Chase Sherman remained silent and followed Seth Sterling’s instructions, immediately taking steps to keep everything that happened tonight under wraps.

Despite his complaints, Seth Sterling was genuinely worried about Damian Quinn’s health and hurriedly went to the ward.

Damian Quinn had not yet woken up from his coma, his brows remained tightly furrowed, as if enduring some immense pain, and he showed rare signs of vulnerability, murmuring something unconsciously.

Seth Sterling curiously leaned closer to catch what the man was muttering.

"Serena... don’t cancel our engagement party..."

"Serena, why do you look so pale? Didn’t you sleep well last night?"

Bianca Everett looked at his beloved sister with a face full of concern, thinking that it must have been the issue with Old Master Everett last night that kept Serena from resting well.

"Serena, it’s the weekend today, why don’t you rest a while longer? I can go to the research institute by myself!"

Contrary to Bianca Everett’s thoughts, Serena Everett hadn’t lost sleep because of Old Master Everett’s affair the previous night.

Serena shook her head in refusal, "No need, I’m fine. Let’s go, Third Brother."

"Alright then." Serena was so firm, Bianca Everett could only compromise, and suddenly he thought of something and spoke expectantly, "Serena, how about I pick you up after school this afternoon? Then we’ll have dinner together!"

Serena didn’t have classes this morning, but she was full of them in the afternoon, so she nodded in agreement.

Seeing his beloved sister agree, Bianca Everett instantly broke into a happy smile. After all, previously, Serena was picked up by Damian Quinn as soon as school ended, and he never had the chance to spend time with her.

"This is great! Serena, you’re going to be engaged to Damian Quinn soon, and you definitely won’t have time then. I have to spend more time with you now!"

Serena’s lips slightly pressed at the mention of Damian Quinn, "I’ve already canceled the engagement party with him."

Bianca Everett stared in astonishment, full of disbelief.

Although he didn’t want to admit it, his beloved sister and Damian Quinn have always had a great relationship. Why the sudden cancellation of the engagement party?

"Third Brother, I haven’t told Dad and Mom about this yet. Please keep it a secret for me; I’ll find a suitable opportunity to tell them."

"Alright... Serena, don’t worry, my lips are sealed!" Bianca Everett nodded in agreement, "Serena, are you canceling the engagement party with Damian Quinn because of the argument last time?"

She was indeed angry at him for destroying The Netherworld Syndicate’s merchandise, and the cancellation served as his punishment. Besides, she needed to return to The Netherworld Syndicate’s headquarters soon to give her master an explanation, so the engagement party had to be canceled.

Bianca Everett couldn’t help but wonder what had happened for his beloved sister and Damian Quinn to argue so fiercely that the engagement party had to be canceled.

"Serena, there’s something I didn’t get a chance to tell you last time. The night you argued with Damian Quinn, he was waiting outside the Everett Family’s doorstep for a long time..."

Bianca Everett’s words were interrupted by the driver’s respectful voice.

"Young Master, Sixth Miss, we’ve arrived at the research institute."

Bianca Everett’s words were cut off, and as he was about to continue, he saw a familiar figure outside the car. He instantly widened his eyes in terror.

"Serena, why is she here?!"

Seeing Bianca Everett’s ghost-like expression, Serena couldn’t help but find it funny, "Third Brother, you forgot, I’m leaving Imperia soon, and Claire will be your partner."

Bianca Everett instantly looked defeated, not wanting to partner with this frivolous woman at all! ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel[f]ire.net

Serena spoke seriously, "Third Brother, Claire is a good person!"

Bianca Everett was speechless, his mouth twitching furiously. Just thinking of her bold advances, touching his butt recklessly, made Bianca Everett grit his teeth furiously. But for the sake of his beloved sister, he could only endure it.

"Serena, I’ll try to get along with her during work."

Outside of work hours, he didn’t want to see her for even a second!

Seeing Serena, Claire Keaton immediately ran up with enthusiasm, giving her a bear hug. Then her gaze fell on Bianca Everett, her eyes filled with playful intent.

"Have you thought about what I said last time?"

Bianca Everett retreated coldly, pulling away from her, and spoke coolly, "I don’t remember you saying anything."

Bianca Everett’s resistant demeanor made Claire Keaton even more eager to conquer him, curling her red lips and whispering in his ear seductively.

"If you submit to me, I’ll be responsible for you!"

After careful thought, becoming a family with her sweetheart wasn’t such a bad idea!

Whether from anger or something else, Bianca Everett’s ears turned bright red, and annoyed, he turned and entered the research institute first.

"Hahaha!" Claire Keaton laughed heartily, "Sweetheart, your Third Brother is really fun!"

Serena sighed helplessly, "Claire, please don’t bully my Third Brother!"

Lucas Laine also arrived, exuding a natural elegance and noble aura, simply standing there was a sight to behold.

Noticing the shadows under Serena’s eyes, his gaze deepened immediately, surprised at how much influence Damian Quinn had over Serena...

Lucas Laine appeared calm on the surface, his tone still gentle, "I also bear some responsibility for the destruction of the shipment; it was my oversight that led to the change of route mid-way, otherwise it wouldn’t have ended up ruined. I’ll go with you to the headquarters to explain to our master."

"No need, this isn’t your fault."

Thinking about the matter, Serena’s exquisite porcelain-white face cooled a few degrees.

Even if the shipment hadn’t changed route, with Damian Quinn’s ability, he could have destroyed it anyway.
