Chapter 503: Chapter 503
When Serena Everett awoke, the sky was already dark.
"Serena, you’re awake..."
Seeing the man with a cold and noble demeanor guarding beside her, the corners of Serena’s lips involuntarily curled up.
It’s so nice to be able to see him as soon as she opens her eyes... However, this also means that he already knows about her side effects.
The corners of Serena’s lips slightly withdrew, and she guiltily glanced at the man.
She’s been keeping it from him for so long, now that it’s exposed, he’s definitely going to be angry...
Ha, the little girl knows how to be afraid now?
Damian Quinn’s jaw tensed, his devilishly handsome face expressionless, but still enough to send shivers down one’s spine.
"Does it still hurt now?"
Even though Damian was extremely angry at this moment, his main concern was still the little girl’s health.
Upon hearing the man’s inquiry, Serena moved her body, the bone-corroding pain had already dissipated, but she still felt very tired.
The agony from the X Potion’s side effects was unbearable even for her. How much pain must those children captured by the DY Organization endure...
Serena lowered her eyes and shook her head: "Much better now."
The man breathed a slight sigh of relief, and then those captivating peach blossom eyes fixed tightly on her.
"When did the side effects start occurring?"
"The day I returned to The Netherworld Syndicate."
Serena pursed her red lips and spoke honestly.
Then she raised her eyes, stealthily taking a quick look at the man. He seemed quite angry... She wondered if she could coax him later...
So the little girl was already experiencing side effects back then...
Recalling the little girl’s previous strange behavior, Damian’s hands, hanging at his sides, suddenly clenched, with the profound guilt in the depths of his eyes deepening even more.
If he had noticed sooner, he wouldn’t have let the little girl be in danger today...
Serena could see his self-reproach, her heart tightened, and her small hand grasped the man’s large hand.
"This is not your fault, don’t blame yourself."
"Serena, why did you hide it from me?"
The man’s voice was very hoarse, making Serena feel even more uncomfortable.
"So many things have happened recently. I wanted to resolve the matter with Master first before telling you..."
Before she could finish speaking, the man tightly embraced her, as if wanting to fuse her into his bones.
"Serena, do you understand? Nothing is more important than you!"
A warm current passed through Serena’s heart, and her red lips curled slightly: "I know."
Seeing the little girl looking so well-behaved, Damian sighed silently, unwilling to say a harsh word to her...
Serena blinked softly, then extended her fair white arms to hook around the man’s neck, her voice gentle.
"You must not be angry with me!"
This time, he definitely had to teach the little girl a lesson, so she’d never dare to keep things from him again...
Thinking of this, Damian’s thin lips pressed together, a serious expression on his handsome face.
"Shouldn’t Brother be angry?"
Seeing the man seeming really angry, feeling very guilty, Serena lightly blinked her eyes and coaxingly kissed him on the lips.
"Don’t be angry, I was wrong."
Feeling the soft touch on his lips, Damian’s eyes deepened, his Adam’s apple moved, but he remained indifferent on the surface.
Serena lightly clicked her tongue against the back of her teeth, expressing annoyance.
Certain male foxes are really difficult to appease when they’re angry!
"I’ve tried so hard to coax you, and you’re still angry!"
Seeing the little girl’s puffed-up, adorable demeanor, Damian could no longer pretend, and the indulgent color in his eyes almost overflowed. Fresh chapters posted on novel•fire.net
His long, jade-like fingers gently pinched her small face.
"From now on, don’t keep anything from me!"
The girl nods obediently and agrees, making Damian’s previously cold heart melt, his eyes unwittingly falling on her rosy, moist lips.
"Sweetheart, flattering isn’t done ..."
The man’s alluring voice slowly whispered in her ear.
"Let Brother teach you."
As soon as the words fell, before Serena could react, her delicate chin was lifted, and the man’s fiery kisses descended upon her like a storm.
The girl let out a helpless whimper.
The room was filled with an ambiguous atmosphere that made one’s heart race...
Only when Serena was out of breath did the man reluctantly let her go.
The little girl was bullied such that the corners of her eyes were tinged with seductive red, making one want to bully her even more...
The man’s eyes deepened a few more shades, Adam’s apple bobbing as he closed his eyes in restraint.
He couldn’t afford to be a beast any longer...
Serena’s delicate and porcelain-white face was unbearably red, and after much effort in suppressing the heat from her face, she brought up the main matter.
"Did you find Walter Coleman?"
The man’s chin nodded slightly: "Found him."
Upon hearing this, Serena’s delicate eyebrows and eyes couldn’t help but show a hint of joy.
Finding Walter Coleman means they can uncover the truth of the past!!!
"But, how did you get in here?"
Serena suddenly thought of this and looked up at the man with a puzzled expression.
Damian Quinn: "It was Master who let me in."
He had originally planned to storm into The Netherworld Syndicate...
Upon hearing this, Serena was also taken aback.
Master harbors deep resentment towards Damian, yet agreed to let him enter The Netherworld Syndicate?
"Because of you, Master agreed to let me enter The Netherworld Syndicate."
Having guessed the little girl’s thoughts, Damian gently patted the girl’s head, speaking in a warm voice.
"Sweetheart, Master really cares for you."
"Master has always cared for me deeply since I was a child!"
Serena firmly pursed her red lips, with a determined look in her eyes.
She must uncover the truth of the past and avenge Master!
"Knock, knock, knock..."
There came a knocking at the door, and then Lucas Laine entered with a tray of medicine.
"Serena, I heard you woke up, so I brought the medicine to you."
Lucas looked at the girl with gentle eyes, but when he glanced at Damian Quinn, his gaze turned instantly cold.
Damian Quinn looked at him with equally freezing eyes, raising his hand and snatching the bowl of medicine from his grasp.
"Thank you, Vice Alliance Hierarch, for caring about my little girl. From now on, you need not trouble yourself delivering medicine; I will remember myself."
The atmosphere in the room instantly grew tense, with a strong sense of hostility.
But Serena couldn’t bother about that, as she looked at Lucas Laine’s overly pale complexion, her intense beautiful fox eyes fixated on him.
"Lucas, are you hurt?"
"I’m fine." Lucas avoided answering directly, instead showing concern for her, "Serena, are you feeling better?"
"I feel much better." Serena’s red lips pursed tighter, "Did Master punish you because he found out I sneaked out?"
Seeing that she had figured it out, Lucas could only nod.
Serena lowered her eyes in guilt, "Lucas, I’m sorry..."
If it wasn’t for her, Lucas wouldn’t be punished so heavily by Master!
But before she could finish her words, Lucas cut her off firmly.
"Serena, you never need to say ’sorry’ to me."
Everything he does for her is his own choice!
