Chapter 238
“You bring a bottle of unlabeled junk to fool Grandpa, and now you dare to curse him with sickness? What are your real intentions p>
The accusation was delivered with righteous indignation.
Then, as Old Mr. Blackwood’s face darkened, she turned to him. “Grandpa, don’t listen to her nonsense! She’s just jealous of Isabella. She knows she can’t compare, so she’s trying to get your attention this way p>
As she spoke, she shot Serena a judgmental look, her tone impatient. “And another thing, Grandpa, look at how she’s dressed! It’s her first time visiting you, an elder, and she’s dressed so casually. It shows she has no manners! If you ask me, the Lancaster family doesn’t care about her at all, which is why she looks so shabby p>
Karen was both furious and anxious, desperate for her grandfather to see Serena’s true colors.
Serena’s eyes lifted slightly, her expression remaining as placid and unruffled as

She was just about to speak.
“Karen p>
A tall, elegant man stood before Serena. He raised his eyes slightly, his gaze falling coldly on Karen.
His voice wasn’t loud, but it was incredibly intimidating, easily cutting through all the noise and making Karen shrink back.
He exuded a chilling coldness, an oppressive aura that was utterly unnerving. “Grandpa hasn’t spoken yet. What are you doing, barking like that? Is this the upbringing of a Blackwood p>

Karen was so frightened her eyes reddened. She shrank back, not daring to utter another sound.

YB?
The world’s top designer brand?
A brand so exclusive that even she, a lady of the Blackwood family, couldn’t always
get her hands on their clothes?
How could Serena possibly be wearing a YB design?
And… why would YB design such a simple-looking outfit?
Old Mr. Blackwood glanced at Karen. “YB’s designs use a unique tailoring method and embroidery
style that is highly recognizable net
That’s how they became famous worldwide this outfit of Serena’s it may look simple and elegant, but if you look closely at the embroidery on her collar, isn’t that YB’s signature stitch p>
Karen quickly looked at Serena.
As a socialite who had spent years studying luxury brands, Karen naturally recognized YB’s unique embroidery.
Her face instantly went white. She felt as if she’d just been slapped.
Old Mr. Blackwood added, “I don’t care what Serena wears, this olde man likes it! It’s clean and simple, easy on the eyes Besides, a girl as beautiful as Serena would look good even in a potato sack p>
