Chapter 61: Chapter 61
This was something Chase Sherman dared not say, after all, their Master Damian had firmly decided to break off the engagement with Miss Cassia, who was brought back from the countryside. If it weren’t for Old Mrs. Quinn suddenly falling ill again, the Quinn Family and the Everett Family’s marriage agreement would likely have been canceled by now.
Listening to these words, the coldness in Serena’s eyes finally dissipated. So that’s why the Quinn Family kept supporting Cassia Everett time and again.
Damian Quinn toyed with her hand, those mesmerizing peach blossom eyes full of mirth, his voice magnetic and lazy, making her ears tingle intensely.
"Little one, so were you just feeling jealous?"
As soon as the thought popped up, Serena immediately denied it to herself, "No, you’re overthinking it."
"Really not?" Damian Quinn’s attractive and sensuous thin lips curled into a bewitching smile, "Then why didn’t you pay attention to your big brother just now, hmm?"
The man’s voice was already deep and pleasant; now, he stretched it out, wrapping around the listener’s ears in soft waves.
Serena blinked lightly, turned her head away, and decided not to bother with him.
She absolutely wouldn’t admit it!
Seeing her , the smile at the corners of Damian Quinn’s mouth deepened slightly, and he lowered his voice to coax her, "Alright, my little one isn’t jealous."
Hearing this, Serena finally glanced at him with a proud look, acknowledging his survival instincts!
"But your big brother is jealous." Damian Quinn leaned down close, those mesmerizing peach blossom eyes staring deeply at her, exuding an indescribable allure, "Little one, from now on, you’re not allowed to accept love letters from others."
Looking at him with that complete male fox spirit demeanor, Serena felt her ears inexplicably warm, avoiding the man’s intense gaze.
"I need to go home now!"
Seeing the flush at the tips of the young girl’s ears, the corners of Damian Quinn’s lips curled into a pleased arc, clearly in a very good mood. For origınal chapters go to novel⸺fire.net
Tsk, her little one’s face was really thin...
"Sixth Miss, you’re back!"
Hearing the servants’ respectful tones, Serena nodded at them. Just as she was about to push the door open, she heard Jocelyn Sterling’s worried voice.
"Oh dear, I really don’t know how to tell Serena about this!"
Ivan Everett’s voice quickly followed, "Indeed, Serena just got back; perhaps we should wait a bit before telling her?"
Jocelyn immediately nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes, you’re right. Serena just got back, and she’s still so young. Let’s wait before telling her that she has a fiancé. Otherwise, I’m afraid she won’t be able to handle it!"
"That was my thought exactly! Let’s wait before telling Serena. If it weren’t that this was an arranged marriage set by the previous generation and unchangeable, I’d really want to call it off!" Ivan Everett whispered again, "We just found Serena, and I want to make it up to her, not rush to marry her off so soon!"
Jocelyn nodded along, "Husband, you’re right, I also just want to spend time with Serena and make up for those missing eighteen years. Although that child is excellent, he’s much older than Serena! We should find a solution to delay the marriage!"
"It’s all because we had five boys in a row. Otherwise, Serena and his age difference wouldn’t be so big..."
Serena’s extraordinarily beautiful fox eyes narrowed coldly, then she let out a cold scoff.
She didn’t want any fiancé.
Serena took out her phone and quickly sent Jude Ford a message.
[Check on which Imperial city noble family the Everett Family has a marriage arrangement with.]
Jude Ford replied swiftly.
[Got it, boss! I’ll check right away!]
[But, boss, why are you suddenly asking me to check this... Wait, boss, could it be the Everett Family is planning to marry you off to another noble family?]
Serena replied to him nonchalantly.
[No, don’t ask more, just do as I ordered.]
[Once you find out, pay them off and cancel the marriage.]
Jude Ford: [Alright, boss!]
Serena put away her phone, striding in with her long, straight legs. As soon as she was in sight, Ivan Everett and Jocelyn Sterling immediately stopped talking about the marriage arrangement and gave her dazzling smiles.
"Serena, you’re back!" Jocelyn Sterling immediately took her hand warmly and led her to the sofa, "Serena, are you tired? Let mom give you a massage?"
Ivan Everett also leaned in, speaking with a smile, "Serena, do you want some fruit? How about I peel an apple for you?"
From the second floor came Cassia Everett, who saw the whole scene and found it unbearably glaring.
The jealousy in her eyes almost overflowed, then she spoke up, "Uncle, Aunt, I have some good news for you. I received an interview invitation from Starlight Entertainment, and the interview is tomorrow; I’m a bit nervous!"
"Oh! Starlight Entertainment, how wonderful. It’s the No. 1 agency in the country. Cassia, you must cherish this opportunity!"
"Yes, yes, Cassia, we’ll both support you!"
Jocelyn Sterling and Ivan Everett praised her with a smile but still kept their attention on Serena.
This made Cassia Everett even more uncomfortable, but she lifted her face into a kind and innocent smile.
"With your encouragement, Uncle and Aunt, I feel much more confident!"
Jocelyn Sterling smiled at her, "Silly girl, there’s no need to be polite with family!"
Cassia immediately hugged her arm affectionately, coquettishly saying, "Aunt, can you come with me to the interview tomorrow? I’d definitely feel more confident with you there!"
"Of course, no problem!"
Seeing that Jocelyn Sterling agreed, a hint of satisfaction appeared in Cassia Everett’s eyes as she increasingly clung to her, constantly acting coy and sweet, so their attention wouldn’t return to Serena.
Serena was used to her little tricks and didn’t bother with her, striding up the stairs with her long, straight legs. She planned to find that jade pendant and return it to Old Mrs. Quinn the next time she visited the hospital.
But when she opened the drawer where it was stored, it was immediately empty.
Serena’s delicately porcelain-white face turned cold instantly, and she called over the servants responsible for cleaning her room.
"While I wasn’t here, who entered my room?"
The servant’s eyes shifted as they began playing dumb.
"No one, Sixth Miss, no one entered while you were away!"
"Yes, yes, no one entered besides us for cleaning!"
Serena could see through their lies at a glance; her beautiful, upturned fox eyes narrowed slightly, radiating danger.
"Are you sure no one else entered the room besides you?"
"Of course! Sixth Miss, we assure you no one else has entered your room!"
